DigiRail MODBUS Remote Terminal Units


Description

 

For a more capable range of Modbus RTU's >>

 

The DigiRail line of smart transmitters with Modbus RTU communication interface provide a simple way for integrating analogue or digital signals to supervisory SCADA systems. There are three models in the range, a 2-channel universal analogue input unit, a 2-channel relay output units and a 4-channel digital input/counter unit.

The input signals are isolated from power thus protecting the electrical instruments by eliminating ground loop effects. This reduces substantially the undesirable interferences and instabilities in sensor measurements

DigiRail can be easily configured and calibrated via the digital interface by using the Windows based Digiconfig software.

Configuration

 

 

 

DigiRail Configuration is done via the RS485 interface by using Modbus RTU commands.

The DigiConfig software supplied FREE allows for configuration of all DigiRail features as well as complete calibration and diagnosis.

It automatically detects active devices in the Modbus network and permits configuration of all parameters.
