Benefits

Integrate your serial RS-232/422/485 based industrial devices and equipment to a Ethernet/IP control system without the need for any changes to the device -- Just connect & configure and you're done
The Communicator is a proven and trusted protocol converter gateway that connects non-networked industrial devices and equipment to Ethernet/IP.
The gateway performs an intelligent protocol conversion and presents the serial data to the Master PLC/Controller as easily processed I/O data.
- The Communicator is slim stand-alone gateway designed for IP20 and DIN-rail mounting -- requiring a 24V power supply.
The Communicator is conformance tested to current Ethernet/IP specifications guaranteeing network compatibility.

Convert almost any type of serial protocol
The Communicator is capable of converting almost any type of serial protocol such as Modbus RTU / ASCII / DF1 or any other type of proprietary Query/Response or Produce/Consume protocol.

- Convert almost any RS-232/422/485 Request/Response or Produce/Consume protocol in just a few minutes -- for example Modbus RTU / ASCII / DF1.
- Pre-defined for Modbus RTU to avoid the hassle of scripting and serial Modbus frame building with the 6-step Modbus RTU wizard.
- No hardware or software changes are required for the connected automation device
- Compatible with PLCs from leading manufacturers such as Siemens / Rockwell / Schneider Electric / etc.
- Complete protocol conversion performed by the Communicator with no PLC function blocks required
- Handy Save/Load function means a completed configuration can be re-used for many other installations
- Included "Anybus Configuration Manager" with flexible serial frame building capabilities
- Versions with Dual Port switched Ethernet allows for daisy chaining and eliminates the need for external switches
- Global free technical support and consultancy
