SMG-5420 User Manual Ver. 1.1 Modbus Overview 1.1 Modbus Modbus is a serial communications protocol originally published by Modicon (now Schneider Electric) in 1979 for use with its programmable logic controller (PLCs). As a matter of fact, Modbus has become a standard communication protocol.
SMG-5420 User Manual Ver. 1.1 1.2 Modbus Gateway Figure 1-1 Modbus Gateway Devices that use Modbus/TCP cannot directly communicate with devices that use serial line Modbus protocols. Because not only the physical interfaces are different also protocols compatible. want implement communication, you need a device that convert and route data of both sides.
Product Overview 2.1 Product Overview SMG-5420 is an industrial Modbus Gateway that converts and routes Modbus data between the serial line and Modbus/TCP. This can help communicate between Modbus master (or slave) of serial line and Modbus slave (or master) of network.
