Benefits

Integrate your serial RS-232/422/485 based industrial devices and equipment to a Modbus RTU 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 Modbus RTU.
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 Modbus RTU 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
