Overview
The Serial MODBUS Gateway acts as a data concentrator for wireless sensor networks. This device incorporates Access Point Node (APN) and Serial RS-232C and RS-485 Interfacing hardware.
How It Works
- Wireless sensors transmit data via the 900 MHz wireless protocol to the gateway.
- The gateway aggregates data from up to 50+ connected sensors within range.
- Data is forwarded to the UpKeep Edge platform via RS-232C/RS-485 serial Modbus connection.
- UpKeep Edge processes data in real time, triggering alerts and logging history for trend analysis.
Key Features
- Encrypt-RF (256-bit AES) secured wireless communication
