Overvew of GateMODBUS Functons
GateMODBUS is a software program that uses the Modbus protocol to acquire data
from other application software or measuring instruments with data output functions,
and transfer the data to DAQLOGGER or Remote Monitor. Using GateMODBUS allows
you to monitor data on DAQLOGGER or Remote Monitor that was acquired not only by
Yokogawa recorders, but also by other manufacturers’ measuring instruments as well.
Yokogawa’s DAQLOGGER is a software program that allows users to open a connection
from their PC to various kinds of Yokogawa recorders (the mR, VR, DARWIN, DX, MV,
and CX) and perform data logging and monitoring.
Yokogawa’s Remote Monitor is a software program that enables monitoring of data
logged by recorders or data logging software.
Features

• Measurement can be performed at intervals of up to 0.5 seconds
*
.
* However, DAQLOGGER’s shortest interval is 1 second. Also, the maximum speed of 0.5
seconds may not be attainable depending on the amount of data being read, the response
time of the device, and the communication speed.
