June 21, 2019 – Pepperl+Fuchs Comtrol is announcing a new product family within its DeviceMaster industrial gateway lineup.

DeviceMaster EIP-MOD gateways allow communication between EtherNet/IP controllers and Modbus master controllers.

The new gateways enable EtherNet/IP controllers—such as CIP-complaint controllers that support Class 1 and Class 3 connections, including PLCs, HMIs, SCADA systems and OPC servers—to connect to Modbus master controllers. This includes serial Modbus RTU/ASCII interfaces, Modbus TCP interfaces, and Modbus RTU/ASCII over Ethernet TCP/IP.

DeviceMaster provide flexible EtherNet/IP interfaces and a built-in data mapping feature that provides a Modbus Concentrator and direct EtherNet/IP controller to Modbus device communication. Web-based setup is performed with intuitive, embedded configuration pages that include data mapping verification and display of the shared memory map. The extensive diagnostics web pages are designed to aid maintenance and troubleshooting tasks.
