The level converter is the communications interface to read up to 250 M-bus devices (simple M-bus loads). The data is read via a M-bus web server WTV676, a PXC device, or via other M-bus read/configuration systems. Multiple level converters can be connected in parallel on one M-bus network. When connected to a M-bus web server, up to six level converters can be connected in parallel.
