Solve most any Modbus conversion challenge with the MESR Modbus Gateway
- ASCII to RTU Conversion
- ASCII or RTU to Modbus TCP Conversion
- Remap conflicting Modbus ID's
- Add multiple masters to Modbus networks
- Prioritize messages based on IP address, Modbus ID, and Function code
- Convert mismatched serial baud rates and settings
- Route Modbus traffic based on Modbus ID
MESR Modbus Gateways bridge devices on Modbus serial networks (RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485) with those on Modbus TCP networks, allowing seamless integration of any Modbus device. Each serial port is accessible over a LAN or WAN by up to 16 simultaneous Modbus TCP masters. All Vlinx™ MESR gateways feature auto detecting 10/100Base T copper and fiber optic connections.

Ethernet Master Serial Slaves
MESR9xx modules can be used to integrate serial slave devices on a
MODBUS TCP network. This allows TCP Masters to control serial slave
devices.

Serial & Ethernet Masters, Serial & Ethernet Slaves
MESR9xx modules can also integrate multiple master devices onto serial and Ethernet networks.

Two Identical Hard Coded Slaves
In this scenario, two slave devices that are hard coded with the same ID
are required. This is accomplished by placing them on different serial
ports.
Serial Masters with IP Slaves
Serial Masters can be used to control IP slaves

Identical Networks
In this scenario, identical or backup production lines can be controlled
by the same IP Master. This allows the duplicate networks to be
configured identically, saving documentation and maintenance time.
