Published by
Softing Industrial Automation GmbH
Features
Highlights
The mbGate PA provides:
Configuration, parametrization and Asset Management based on major Modbus-Engineering-Tools
-
Support of Schneider Control Expert (tested and approved). The internal Profibus - Modbus/TCP mapping can be directly imported into Control Expert's project.
Asset Management via FDT/DTM
-
A communication Device Type Manager (CommDTM) for accessing Profibus field devices via FDT/DTM frame applications like Foxboro Field Device Manager (FDM) from Schneider Electric.
High Availability option (full redundancy: 2 controllers + 2 devices)
-
The gateway supports redundancy and can be used in pair. It prevents network downtime & has been tested with EcoStruxure Modicon M580 Controllers.
