radio mesh connection
Options for getting data in to Emerson
- Ethernet connection, through a router. Then assign a controller in developer studio. This is the classic approach.
- For older equipment: modbus-r driver
- Serial ports: Two-wire to box to ethernet or a card
- Serial flavors: RS485 vs RS232
We have a serial connection with modbus RS 485; we want to convert that to ethernet (modbus TCP)
Pete's idea:
- Use existing serial connection to ethernet box
- Wireless hub radio to Drop 6
- Plug radio via ethernet to field LAN router
Companies to provide transmitter hardware
- Xetawave
- GE
