Smart Gateway

Intelligent Protocol Converter + more

General Description Features

A Smart Gateway bridges devices  Up to (16) different protocols can be
between different networks. Every Smart supported simultaneously
Gateway includes a comprehensive set of  Hundreds of thousands of data points
drivers, allowing users to configure any supported, extremely fast throughput
mix of up to 16 simultaneous drivers to  Easy configuration and data mapping
meet their network bridging needs.  Diagnostics, real-time status monitoring
In addition to network bridging, Smart  Supports user logic for diagnostics,
Gateways provide an intelligent platform data manipulation, scaling, logging, etc.
that can be programmed for advanced
functions such as data scaling or logging. Communication Ports
Every Smart Gateway includes these
Smart Gateways also provide options for configurable communication ports:
remote access, with SoftPLC's TagWell™  (4) 10/100MB BaseT Ethernet ports
