The Modbus TCP/IP to PROFINET device gateway offers bi-directional

data transfer between a PROFINET Controller and Modbus TCP/IP

networks. The Modbus TCP/IP driver uses multiple clients and servers for

faster data throughput. The PROFINET driver operates as a PROFINET

device (slave).

The PLX31-MBTCP-PND gateways are stand-alone DIN-rail mounted

units that provide one Ethernet port for communications, remote

configuration, and diagnostics. The onboard SD Card slot (SD card

optional) is used for storing configuration files that can be used for

recovery, transferring the configuration to another gateway, or general

configuration backup.

Features

 PROFINET v2 certification with PROFINET class A compliance.

 Field-tested with multiple Modbus TCP/IP devices, and PROFINET

controllers from multiple vendors.

 Remotely view and diagnose Modbus TCP/IP and PROFINET networks.

 Remote configuration via the free, intuitive, ProSoft Configuration Builder

(PCB) software.

 Multiple, simultaneous Modbus TCP/IP client and/or server connections

to allow for increased throughput.

 Secure module configuration via module switch (v1.04 and greater).

 Up to 10.000 16-bit registers can be used to exchange large amounts

of data.
