Modbus gateways can be used to integrate Modbus networks in a wide variety of settings.
But as each setting has its own requirements, users may not understand how a gateway
helps, or if it’s appropriate for their specific needs.
The following scenarios are examples only, and many others are possible. Contact B&B
Electronics technical support for information on other applications.
Ethernet Master and Serial Slaves
Your Modbus gateway can be used to integrate serial slave devices on a Modbus TCP
network. This allows TCP Masters to control serial slave devices. The example below is
using a gateway with two serial ports.
