Smart PLC Connection Solution for Modbus RTU

This is the best tool to quickly and easily move Modbus RTU Master data directly to the tags or registers of your Allen Bradley PLC. Finally you have an alternative to expensive and complicated in rack solutions.

Why the 460ETCMRS?

With the 46ETCMRS you can quickly and easily connect a Modbus RTU Master device to an Allen Bradley PLC5E, SLC 5/05, CompactLogix, ControlLogix, FlexLogix, or MicroLogix. No Ladder logix to write or tools to download. The 460ETCMRS exists for one purpose and one purpose only; Move data between a Modbus RTU master and an Allen Bradley PLC.

It's so simple you will never have to deal with 30 additional features you don’t need. You wont have to search through a hundred page manual, or burn the midnight oil to set up this unit. The 460ETCMRS is designed for a single purpose so that it can be quickly and easily configured and deployed.

What Makes it so Simple to Use?

Registers from your Modbus RTU master device are mapped to tags or registers in your PLC. One set of PLC tags or registers are defined to be written to and one set to read from. Registers from the Modbus RTU master will be directly written to and read from those tags or registers. There's nothing else to it. Modbus RTU master registers are mapped directly to the tag or registers in your PLC.

The 460ETCMRS is the smart connection solution for moving data from Modbus RTU Master devices to a Micrologix, PLC 5E, SLC 5/05, MicroLogix, CompactLogix and ControlLogix. Saving you money and increasing the abilities of the PLCs within your automation processes.

How Does It Work?

The products in the Instant Device Converter product line contain an IEC 61131-3 Control Engine that moves your data between the different network buffers. Input data from one network is moved to the output buffer of one or more other networks. The same principle applies to data moving in the opposite direction.

Because the unit features a Control Engine the transfer of data can be customized to meet your specific application requirements. Just call 1-800-249-1612 for details.

The Legend Begins
"It’s likely that your business isn't industrial networking. And it shouldn't be. You make products, products that do wonderful things. Whatever it is that you make the process creates data. If you're a control engineer and your plants been around for more than a few years your plant floor is probably littered with devices that send out all kinds of data, and in most case data talking in a lot of different protocols. If you're an automation device developer you probably need to move your data into some other network. Either way, you've got a device conversion problem. You have devices that generate ASCII data, Modbus RTU, Ethernet TCP Data, DeviceNet data or some completely proprietary data and now you're the guy that has to move that data to some other network!

I feel your pain… and better than my sympathy I have a solution for you. You see while your business isn't moving data around the factory floor mine is. In fact it is all we have done for more than twenty years now. Our 460 series of Device Converters line is the culmination of those twenty years. You can now move all of your data, where you want, when you want and how you want. Best of all THE HARDEST PART IS OPENING THE BOX".
