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

• Runs as a Windows application.

• Supports the Modbus/RTU (serial) and Modbus/TCP (Ethernet) protocols.

• Allows you to read the input and holding registers from various measuring instruments.

• 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.
