Modbus Master/Slave to Honeywell DE Master Communication Module
5106-MCM-DEM
Product Description
The ProLinx family Modbus Master/Slave to Honeywell DE Master communications module (5106-MCM-DEM) creates a powerful connection between devices on a Honeywell DE network and Modbus devices. The module is a stand-alone DIN-rail mounted protocol gateway that provides one configurable serial port and one 8 channel DEM block.
The Modbus (MCM) protocol driver supports Master and Slave implementations of the protocol. All Modbus serial ports are individually configurable, providing a very powerful and flexible host or device interface solution.
The DEM protocol driver is designed to provide a tightly integrated communications interface between other protocols of the ProLinx platform and the Honeywell DE instruments. Compatible DE devices include a large array of field devices including pressure, temperature, metering, and many other instruments.
Product Applications
The MCM-DEM modules are the ideal solution for the many applications where DEM connectivity can be used to integrate Modbus serial devices into a system.
The Honeywell DE gateway is a powerful module designed with Server support, enabling easy connection to Rockwell Automation PLCs (CLX, SLC, PLC, CPLX, and similar devices). In combination with the Modbus device support, the module provides a very powerful interface to the many Modbus devices which are in use in the industrial marketplace today. Applications for the module are found in most industries, especially the Manufacturing, Oil and Gas, Electrical Power and Food Processing.
Functional Specifications
Internal Database
The ProLinx module contains an internal database that consists of areas for application data, status information, and configuration information.
The internal database is shared between all ports on the module and is used as a conduit to pass information from a device on one network to one or more devices on another network.
Application Data Area
The data area is used to store and retrieve data by the protocol drivers and for data exchange between protocols. The database is used as a source for write commands to remote devices and holds data collected from the remote devices. Commands defined in the configuration file (stored in the configuration data area) control how the data is to be handled in the database.
Status Data Area
This area is used to store error codes, counters, and port status information for each port.
Configuration Data Area
This area contains module configuration information such as port configuration, network information, and command configuration. This configuration file is downloaded to, or uploaded from, this area.
Modbus Protocol Specifications
The Modbus driver provides access to an internal database of 4000 registers (words), with extensive support provided for both the Master and the Slave implementations of the protocol. The serial port(s) on the gateway can be individually configured to support the Modbus protocol (Master or Slave, RTU or ASCII, Baud Rate, etc).
