Overview
Introduction
The MGate 4101-MB-PBS gateway provides a communication portal between PROFIBUS PLCs (e.g., Siemens S7-400 and S7-300 PLCs) and Modbus devices. With the QuickLink feature, I/O mapping can be accomplished within a matter of minutes. All models are protected with a rugged metallic casing.
QuickLink will detect Modbus requests with the AutoLearning function, and performs error-free I/O mapping with the AutoMapping feature, it drastically reduces Modbus-to-PROFIBUS integration time when compared to conventional I/O mapping, plus the embedded monitoring tools can maintain logs of Modbus communication packets and assist in troubleshooting.
