Access to Data in Modbus PLCs from The Cloud via MQTT

EASY SMART CUSTOMIZABLE

The configurable Gateway ELCO35 enables communication between Modbus-RTU/ Modbus TCP Slave devices and MQTT broker/server). The communication is bidirectional, allowing for the reading of data from Modbus slave devices and writing to Modbus slave devices. The Gateway can send data read from Modbus to configurable topics on the MQTT broker (Publish) and receive configurable topics (Subscribe) to write this data into Modbus.

Housing/Dimensions:

For easy implementation into industrial control system racks, ELCO35 Housing should come in a housing with integrated DIN-Rail sockets. Furthermore, the board should be equipped with connectors allowing for interconnection to commonly used industrial interfaces.

As an example, a Modular ICS packaging from Phoenix Contact was used.
