1. Before Using the Product
This chapter provides necessary information before using the product.
About the Product
The product is a M2M controller with isolated RS-422/485, isolated digital input/output, isolated input
counter, inter-channel isolated analog input, RS232C, LAN interface, Ethernet Hub and 3G network
communication module.
CPS-MG341G-ADSC1-930 contains OPC UA server function within. This product can communicate
directly with HMI and SCADA software that support OPC UA clients from various makers. The
product is the data collector M2M Gateway for PLC that supports respective PLCs as well as various
Modbus devices. For equipment with PLC control, data will be collected by “M2M Gateway for PLC”.
For the one without PLC control, data can be collected by “M2M controller” that supports sensor input.
“M2M Gateway for PLC” can connect up to 10 Ethernet/calculating links with differing makers PLCs
simultaneously.
The CONPROSYS series enables you to collect and consolidate data from a wide range of equipment.
You can perform all processes on a web browser from the development to the operation. The functions
such as Web monitoring of I/O information, alarm processing by I/O information, task divergence
enable you to create a Cloud System at low cost and in a short time.
Hardware Features
- The product contains I/O interface such as digital I/O, analog input, counter, and serial
communication.
RS-232C: 1-channel, RS-422A/485: 1-channel, Photocoupler isolation input (compatible with current
sink output): 4-channel, Semiconductor relay output: 2-channel, Bus isolation analog input (current
input): 2-channel. Counter input performs up-counting: equipped with two channels of up counters.
* Two of four digital-input can be used as the counter-input.
- Adaptable to a temperature range between -20 and +60°C
The product is capable of operating in the temperature between -20 and + 60°C. It can be installed in
the various environments.
- Compact Design
Compact design, 188.0(W) × 78.0(D) × 30.5(H), features flexibility in installation.
- Ethernet Hub Function within
Use the product as Ethernet Hub so that you can connect devices in the daisy-chain.
- Capable of adapting a wide-range power (12- 24VDC)
The product is capable of dealing with a wide range of power in the differing environments.
Power connector also has a FG terminal.

1 Before Using the Product
2CPS-MG341G-ADSC1-930 Hardware Manual
- Installation easy with two pieces of terminal support and DIN rail
You can install and remove a terminal connector without a screwdriver so that it can shorten the time
of the replacement. As the product can be mounted on the DIN rail, removing and replacing are easy
as well.
- A powerful running platform without fan
The product contains the ARM®Cortex®-A8 processor (600MHz) and the DDR3 512MB system
memory.
- Decrease malfunctions or damages by bus isolation and surge protection. (the RS-422A/485,
digital/counter input)
Electrical isolation between the RS-422A/485 and the CPU, as well as between the digital/counter
input and CPU can block up the electrical noise flow. Moreover, the surge protection elements are used
for signal line and on top of that, the RS-422A/485 is protected with the communication IC that can
withstand ±70 V input voltage, which reduces malfunctions or damages by surge.
- Decrease malfunctions or damages by bus isolation, inter-channel isolation and surge protection.
(Analog input)
As analog inputs and channel, along with analog inputs and CPU, are electrically isolated, connecting
an input signal with electric potential difference is possible. In addition, the surge protection elements
are used for signal lines, which reduces malfunctions or damages by surge.
- Equipped with LED for an operation check
The product has LED for an operation check, which helps you visually confirm the communication
status of each interface.
- With no use of electrolytic capacitor and primary battery
Neither an electrolytic capacitor, which has a limited life, nor a primary battery is used. We are
creating the product with a longer life.
Software Features
- Promoting a multi-vendor system supporting a varied lineup of PLCs and Modbus devices
The product connects and supports every PLC and each Modbus device simultaneously.
*please visit our website regarding the details of supportive information.
- Connect up to 10 links and data collection from 100 group registers
Up to 10 Ethernet/calculating links can be connected. Data collection from 30 PLCs and 100 group
registers can be carried out. Up to 1000 data mapping for Modbus is possible.
- Measurement and Upload
The product uploads measured data of the sensor and collected data from PLC to the Cloud server.
- Web Monitoring
The product contains a Web server (Java applet). Even with your PC located remotely, you can
monitor and update I/O information through a Web browser. On the monitoring screen, you can freely
lay out the standard GUI parts (graphic, slider, button, etc.). All operations including monitoring
layout, making relations with I/O information, can be achieved via the Web browser.
- Web Task Script
By combining icons such as arithmetic operations, conditional branching, data outputting, you can set
up the executions or its processes like drawing them in the flowchart. All operations can be completed
on the Web browser.

CPS-MG341G-ADSC1-930 Hardware Manual 3
- Message Communication Function
By working with the RS232C 1 port, the RS-422A/RS-485 1 port or the Ethernet device (TCP/UDP),
you can establish up to 10 links and transmit or receive messages. Message communication can be
accomplished from Web task script.
