Gateway PROFIBUS DP to Serial (ASCII) or Modbus RTU
netTAP 50 connects to communication networks and acts as a Gateway for simple conversions between one Real-Time Ethernet protocol (1-port) and one fieldbus protocol or one serial automation protocol as well as between one fieldbus protocol and one serial automation protocol. netTAP 50 supports Slave-zu-Slave- and Slave-zu-Master-conversions. As a master, netTAP 50 provides only one single slave device with the full master function. This makes it easy to integrate a single field device into any higher-level network.
The design of the netTAP 50 convinces by its compact hardware and is reduced to the basic requirements of a protocol converter. The converter is directed to market segments for which the factor costs has priority. This makes the netTAP 50 an attractively priced and universally applicable gateway that offers a wide variety of conversion options.
NT 50-DP-RS supports the following protocols:
- PROFIBUS DP Slave
- PROFIBUS DP Master
- Serial (programmable)
- Serial (ASCII)
- Modbus RTU Master
- Modbus RTU Slave
- Integrates a Modbus RTU device into a PROFIBUS DP network, and vice versa
- Transfers ASCII telegrams from/to a PROFIBUS DP Master or Slave
- Extremely space-saving compact design
- Loadable Firmware for flexible use of other conversions
- With diagnosis and configuration interface via Ethernet
