MBUS 200 RS-232/M-Bus Converter

The mBus 200 is a transparent converter from RS232 to M-Bus interface. You can connect 4 RS232 signal lines - RxD, TxD, CTS, RTS. The converter operates as a M-Bus Master and allows you to power (connect) up to 200 standard M-Bus receivers (so called M-Bus Slaves) through M-Bus Master output. You can connect fewer devices at a higher M-Bus load over long distances. You can use mBus with any devices equipped with M-Bus interface, e.g. heat meters, electricity meters, gas meters, executive modules, recorders, measuring instruments. The converter has LEDs indicating data transmission: transmission (TxD), reception (RxD), overload on M-Bus (ERROR), M-Bus ready (READY), power supply (POWER). Connection interfaces are made of screw connection terminal blocks. DIN rail mountable plastic housing (TS35) Features

Many of industrial devices are equipped with RS-232 interface, like the iMod telemetry platform: iMod is a configurable ModBus device based on the efficient NPE hardware and system platform communication module in cooperation with any user protocols. Main features:

(linux).

Thanks to universal architecture and plug-in solutions, it can work as an universal

developed communication and reporting channels datalogging function a variety of hardware interfaces

make this device the most universal on the automation and telemetry market. mBus 200 supports iMod-X1000 device.
