How Do I Use the 460MMUSB-N70U in My Application?
Incoming ASCII data from a USB device is mapped directly to registers in your Modbus RTU Slave devices. You set how often the gateway updates the data to the Slaves. This update is cyclic, not event based. For event based processing, like most barcode scans, you can map an additional counter that increments whenever a successful message is received from the USB device.
If your device uses delimiters, the 460MMUSB can be configured to automatically remove the delimiters, no need to deal with the delimiters in your Slaves. If you need to parse your data, the 460MMUSB can parse a string of ASCII data in up to 50 segments by delimiter or offset.
Why Use Real Time Automation as a Gateway Supplier?
While there are certainly other companies offering protocol 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. 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.
