Device working as a gateway (protocol conversion) between an Ethernet network with Modbus RTU protocol and a KNX (TP) network. Master function on the Modbus RTU network. Mounting in distribution board on EN 60715 rail (4 modular units, each 18 mm). To be used in KNX installations for home and building automation.
Ethernet (IEEE 802.3) communication port, RJ45 connector, at least 5E cable category
Modbus master RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) communication • Device addressing from 0 to 250
Register exchange of Coil, Input, and Input Register Holding Register type
Reading and writing of single and multiple registers
Volatile support memory with �Modbus image� buffer of 1440 bytes
KNX TP (twisted pair) 9600 baud communication port, electrically insulated from power supply
Volatile support memory with �image KNX� buffer of 1440 bytes
KNX device with gateway function (protocol conversion)
between an Ethernet Modbus RTU network (Master
function) and a KNX TP network over a twisted pair
communicaton cable. Ideal applicaton in integration of
Modbus devices over an Ethernet network in a KNXbased automation system for homes and buildings.
The Modbus master TCP ekinex® EK-BH1-TP-TCP
gateway is a KNX modular unit for panel mounting. It
allows you to exchange informations with one or more
slave devices over an Ethernet network through
Modbus RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) protocol. The
ekinex gateway acts as Modbus Master. The
informations exchanged over the Modbus network are
updated over the KNX network by means of a twisted
pair (TP) communication cable.
