MB5001C series 1-port Modbus Gateway

1. Introduction

Modbus is an industry adopted communication protocol based on RTU, ASCII, and TCP protocols for

various applications; these three protocols are commonly used by hardware equipments in the industry,

such as DCS, PLC, HMI, power load measurement, various sensor and measuring instruments. The

Modbus Gateway is capable of implementing the Modbus environment between different hardware

interfaces, thereby streamlining the process of management and application.

Diverse Hardware Infrastructure

Modbus Gateway supports the four most commonly used hardware communication interfaces, RS232,

RS485, RS422, and Ethernet. The simple-to-use configuration software provided with Modbus Gateway

can quickly modify the hardware interface to use, and easily switch to the existing hardware

communication infrastructure.

Switching between Modbus Protocols

Modbus Gateway supports the standard Modbus protocol and is capable of converting any Modbus

protocols between Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU or Modbus ASCII for all supported hardware

interfaces.

2.2 Installation Procedures

Step 1: Connect MB5001C to power source using 5V DC Jack(Note that DC Jack is 5V only, and only

use it with a power adaptor), or 9~30V DC Terminal Block power source.

Note：MB5001C provide two power inputs can be connected simultaneously to live DC

power sources. Anyone of the power inputs fails, the other live source acts as a backup

to support power needs automatically. The redundant dual DC power inputs give one

extra assurance of non-stop operation.

MB5001C : 5V DC Jack or DC 9-30V 3-pin Terminal Block power input

MB5001C-Sis: DC 9-30V 3-pin Terminal Block power input

Step 2: Connect MB5001C to Ethernet network. Use a standard straight-through Ethernet cable when

one connect it to a hub/switch, one also can connect it to ones PC„s Ethernet port via a

cross-over Ethernet cable for easy set up. However, in this case one need to make sure ones

PC is in the same network sub-net as MB5001C.

Step 3: Connect MB5001C‟s serial port to a serial device.

Step 4: Placement options. One can mount MB5001C to a wall/panel (Mounting screws included) or

Din-Rail rack (Require optional item model: Din-Rail-Kit DK-25).
