port that can connect to many types of Modbus device. By translating Modbus/TCP (Ethernet) and Modbus/ASCII/RTU (Serial) protocols, a PLC with Ethernet can use the RS-232/485 interface to seamlessly communicate with instruments.

Powerful operation modes for versatile Modbus applications

For Modbus protocol conversions, it is necessary to define a Master and Slave device, but unlike other Modbus Gateways, NPort 6110 allows users to configure Master/Slave for both the Ethernet and serial sides.

Extra address mapping and exception parameters are provided to ensure that most situations can be handled.

Windows utility for easy setup and traffic monitoring

NPort 6110 is powerful yet very easy to use. An intuitive Windows utility automatically searches for all available NPort 6110 units on the LAN.

Traffic Monitoring within the utility helps you troubleshoot any Modbus communication problem, such as connection status check, or address translation error check.
