ANSI X3.28 to Modbus RTU - Serial to Modbus RTU Converter

Designed for legacy systems where there is a need to replace older X3.28 protocol Controllers and with new Modbus RTU Controllers. The Model 2399 provides ANSI X3.28 to Modbus RTU Conversion without changing the existing system software. The 2399 also provides serial control of Modbus RTU devices for new applications that want the ease of using simple ASCII commands when controlling Modbus RTU devices.

Model 2399 ANSI X3.28 to Modbus RTU Converter

• Converts ANSI X3.28 commandslinto Modbus RTU packets.

• New 32 Address Mode supports multi-channel Modbus Controllers like the Watlow MLS300.

• Control Modbus RTU devices from any ASCII serial source.

• Serial ports support RS-232 and 2-wire/4-wire RS-485 signals.

• Includes serial baud rate conversion.

• Internal logic is IEEE-488.2 compatible and uses SCPI commands for configurtion setup.

• 2399 mounts on a DIN rail or on any flat panel.

• Inexpensive way to maintain manufacturing equipment such as semiconductor fusion chambers, etc as the ANSI Controllers become obsolete.

• Application Note AB23-3 describes how to use the 2399 to replace obsolete Watlow Controllers in the Axcelis/Fusion Gemini Asher.

• 2399 Serial Keyboard Program lets you control and setup the 2399 and test the ANSI modes.

• 239x Table Loader Program uploads ANSI Command Table entries from an Excel csv file.
