Modbus I/O Master/Slave Server
Our Modbus I/O Server is designed with the Windows
32bit platform in mind. The server is capable of handling
very large scale SCADA systems with minimal impact on
computer CPU usage.
Some of the key features of the Modbus Server:
- communicates OPC, DDE, FastDDE, and Suitelink. Compatible
with WonderWare, ICONICS, Citect, Intellution, Rockwell
Software RSView32, and any other compliant HMI/MMI
- serial, modem, radio, and TCP/IP communication capable
- multi-user GUI with remote access to server
- highly optimized poll scheduler using differential
timers vs timer tick - This features enables the topics
to be polled when scheduled and not constantly, helping
reduce the load on the CPU
- Custom Modbus Register defination upto 9 digits
- Smart online and offline configuration changes
- enter topic and I/O information and apply the changes
on the fly
- Smart configuration layout - reduces user configuration
effort by inheriting port settings down to all the
topics. No more per topic level communication setting
required
- Hot configuration upload - you do not have to shut
down the server to load new configurations. Edit the
configuration file using Excel or notepad. Multiple
configuration changes can be uploaded and applied
on the fly
- GUI is detached from main server back-end - server
runs as a service, therefore, it can not be accidentally
shut down by closing the GUI
- Server engine is completely event based - our new
event driven method dramatically reduces CPU consumption
from others who rely on constant polling
- Demand scan - instant polling of specific topic
at user selected priority
- Dynamic topic priorities for dial up - once connected
to the remote device via dial up, topics in the queue
for the same phone number are given priority over
others, to complete the poll and reduce over head
of connection time
- Deboost dial up topic priority - the smart starvation
logic deboosts the priority of a dial up connection
after a user defined time, so that other dial out
numbers can proceed with topic polling
- built in high speed logger that is full of smart
features: stable view (most loggers, if included,
would scroll as data is coming in. Our logger stays
static as you view the data), color coded messages
(helps in troubleshooting quickly between good and
bad messages), able to perform editing functions (such
as copy, select, find, and others) and multi-user
logger (in keeping with our multi-user access capability
of the server, multiple users can view the logger
at the same time).
- Smart multi-threading optimized for Win. NT 4,
Win. 2000, Win. XP, and Server 2003 Technology
As with any of our products, with the combination of
our Smart Protocol Analyzer or the Smart Protocol Server,
working side by side with the Modbus I/O Server, you
will be able to run and maintain the system with little
or no intervention.
The server fully supports realtime Modbus ASCII, RTU,
TCP, over Serial (RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485), TCP/IP,
and OPC version 1.0 & 2.0 standards. See the OPC
Data Server Form for current OPC compliance.
