The demand for protocol conversions within a single network has increased tremendously because industrial communication systems are getting more and more complex. Moxa's MGate series of protocol gateways offers a variety of industrial protocol gateways with intuitive graphical interfaces to make industrial protocols conversion effortless in 2 steps.
1. Simply Select the Right Protocol Gateway
2. Easily Configure Various Protocol Gateways
To integrate heterogeneous systems, it’s important to identify the communication protocols and the relationship between two entities (e.g., master-slave, scanner-adapter, etc.) for selecting a protocol conversion gateway.
First, determine the main industrial Ethernet protocol your system uses.
Second, identify the protocol your device uses.
Third, clarify the relationship between the two entities in your communication system.
Find the right gateway that converts the protocol between your devices and a Modbus TCP-based system.
Find the right gateway that converts the protocol between your devices and an EtherNet/IP-based system.
Find the right gateway that converts the protocol between your devices and a PROFINET-based system.
Configuring protocol conversion settings is easier said than done as the initial setup of a gateway is complex. But,rest assured that Moxa offers an intuitive graphical web interface that guides you easilythrough the configuration within four steps.
