PLANET has added the Industrial Modbus TCP/IP Protocol to its easily-integrated industrial management level products that
come with SCADA/HMI system and other data acquisition systems on factory floors. Moreover, the industrial IT SNMP network
is upgraded to the Industrial automation Modbus TCP/IP network. PLANET industrial management level products with the
Modbus TCP/IP Protocol offer flexible network connectivity solutions for the industrial automation environment.
To complete the industrial automation environment application solution, PLANET has announced a first industrial level 1-port
RS232/422/485 Modbus Gateway, IMG-2x00T, a bridge that converts between Modbus TCP/IP Protocol and Modbus
RTU/ASCII Protocol. It features a wide operating temperature range from -40 to 75 degrees C and a compact but rugged IP30
metal housing.
A Conversion Bridge for Flexible Network Deployment

administrator workstations that run the Modbus TCP/IP Protocol. The RS232/422/485 serial interface of the IMG-2x00T Series
provides the Modbus RTU/ASCII operation mode and various baud rate options to meet the demand of integration between the
Modbus TCP/IP Protocol, Modbus RTU Master/Slave Protocol and Modbus ASCII Master/Slave Protocol.
