Product Description

Connect Modbus RTU Slaves to a BACnet MS/TP System

The 460MMBMS moves data between up to 32 Modbus RTU Slaves and a BACnet MS/TP Building Automation System (BAS). It’s a perfect tool to tie Modbus power meters, boilers, chillers and other devices into your BACnet MS/TP Building Automation System.

Best of all the product is Made in the USA, is always in stock and comes with a 5 year warranty.

How Do I Use the 460MMBMS in My Application?

For most applications the mapping is very straight forward. Modbus register data is mapped to BACnet analog objects and Modbus coil data is mapped to binary objects on BACnet. The only additional piece required for BACnet is adding meta data which is nothing more than an ASCII description of each object. No other deep understanding of either protocol is required to configure the gateway.

It really is that simple. Need to modify your data as it passes from one protocol to the other? No problem. Each data mapping you apply can be modified with up to 3 mathematic functions. Add 4 to a value, multiply by 4 and divide by 10 with ease.

Move Your Data Bi-directionally

You can both send and receive data to and from your Modbus RTU Slave devices. Registers and coils in the Modbus RTU Slaves are mapped directly to BACnet MS/TP properties of Analog Input, Analog Output, Binary Input, and Binary Output. Up to 150 Analog Inputs, 150 Analog Outputs, 1600 Binary Inputs, and 1600 Binary Outputs can be mapped to Registers and Coils in up to 31 Modbus RTU Slave devices.

Why Use Real Time Automation as a Gateway Supplier?

The 460MMBMS provides an option to access Modbus RTU Slave devices on your BACnet MS/TP Master. While there are certainly a number of other companies offering stand alone gateways, there is no one who provides the level of support and service that you receive from RTA.

When you call, a live person answers the phone. When you talk with sales, you will get honest answers and recommendations even if that means recommending someone else’s solution. When you get support, it is from an engineer who had a hand in the product’s development, and support doesn’t require a ticket or 24 hour wait.We are unashamed of the fact that we are a smaller company because that means you mean a lot more to us.

Gateway Security
You can configure up to nine different users with access to diagnostic and configuration screens.

Alarming
Set <, <=, >=, >, ==, !=, and Change-of-State rules on any data moving through the gateway. If alarm rule is triggered an email notification can be sent.

Translation Table
Allows for data manipulation during protocol translation. Scaling and other data format changes can occur in the gateway.

Status and Counters
Protocol specific status, counters and error messages are accessible within the gateways diagnostics page. They can also be delivered to a connected device.

Diagnostic Logging Page
Allows users to see and log start up sequences, protocol specific messages & error messages.
