Modbus is a communication protocol widely used in industrial automation systems, created by Modicon (now Schneider Electric) in 1979. It's a standard for connecting devices like sensors and controllers.

It follows a master-slave architecture, where a master device (like a computer) talks to slave devices (such as PLC or sensors). Communication usually happens over serial links (like RS-232 or RS-485) and Ethernet networks.

A Modbus gateway is used to connect Modbus devices that use different communication protocols or physical mediums. It typically act as Protocol Conversion, Network Bridging, Data logger, Remote Monitoring and Control functions.

In summary, a Modbus gateway serves as a versatile tool for facilitating communication and interoperability between Modbus devices and other systems, networks, or protocols.

It's easy, all Elastel Gateways provide web-based configuration portal, no coding needed. you just need visibly select the Modbus slave devices (like PLC, sensors) COM port, the baud rate, etc, and configure its Modbus rules (like device ID, function code, register address, data types).

For cloud integration, Elastel Gateways support many protocols such as Modbus TCP, MQTT, OPC UA, BACnet. Users simply input the cloud server URL and related items.The gateway will start retrieve Modbus data and make this available to a local dashboard and upload to your cloud platform like Azure, AWS, ThingsBoard.
