UNIGATE CL Protocol Converter

Protocol Converter for all devices with a serial interface

The Protocol Converter UNIGATE CL connects devices via their serial interfaces with the desired fi eldbus or Industrial Ethernet standard.. RS232, RS485 and RS422 interfaces are on Board as a standard feature..
The communication between the serial side and the bus takes place through the device configuration and a selection of the commercially available protocol, such as Modbus ASCII,
Modbus RTU (Master or slave), 3964 (R), RK512, DIN measuring bus, DIN 19244. For more complex applications the device can also be controlled by a script. The protocol converters are available as slim DIN rail module according to IP20.

Features

• RS232, RS485- and RS422 interfaces
• The CL is well compatible with PLCs from the worldwide leading manufacturers. E.g. Rockwell, Siemens, Schneider Electric, Beckhoff and more
• SSI protocol is supported e.g. for encoder
• Built-in isolation on the bus side, optionally on the serial side
• Easy configuration via configuration tool WINGATE
• More Flexibility with free programming via Protocol Developer (Deutschmann Script language)
• No adjustment of the device firmware needed
• Additional debug interface on board
• Same Dimensions in all bus variants
• Brand labeling, pre-configured according to the customer
