Get Your Modbus TCP/IP Server Devices Connected to a Profibus DP PLC
The 460MCPBS moves data between up to 32 Modbus TCP/IP Server devices and a Profibus DP enabled PLC. It’s the perfect tool to utilize the plethora of cost effective Modbus TCP/IP devices in your Profibus architecture.
Best of all the product is Made in the USA, is always in stock and comes with a 5 year warranty.
How Do You Map the Data?
Modbus TCP/IP Server Register and Coil data will be mapped into 10 Profibus DP slots. The slots will be assigned a type of int8, int16, int32, int64, uInt8, uint16, uint32, uint64, float, double, binary8, binary16 or binary32. When writing from your Profibus DP Master to your Modbus TCP/IP devices, the data in the slots can be mapped to Registers and Coils in any Modbus TCP/IP Server.
It’s really that simple. Need to modify your data as it passes from one protocol to the other? No problem. Each data mapping you apply can be modified with up to 3 mathematic functions.
Why Use Real Time Automation as a Gateway Supplier?
The 460MCPBS provides an option to access Modbus TCP/IP Server devices without having to upgrade your PLC or get an expensive in rack solution. While there are certainly a number of other companies offering stand alone gateways, there is no one who provides the level of support and service that you receive from RTA.
When you call a live person answers the phone. When you talk with sales you will get honest answers and recommendations even if that means recommending someone else’s solution. When you get support it is from an engineer who had a hand in the product’s development and support doesn’t require a ticket or 24 hour wait. We are unashamed of the fact that we are a smaller company because that means you mean a lot more to us.

What our Customers are Saying
“I challenged a customer to get it working by the time I got back from his break room with a Coke and he indeed had it working when I got back. He then said, "It’s worth twice the price!"”
Eric P. / Kendall Electric
“Everything seems to be working as we imagined. Thanks for the great response time. I did not see any way to save the configuration other than screen shots, but the configuration did not get lost in the update. Thanks again, and you were a pleasure to work with.”
Kevin L. / Extol, Inc.
