Chapter 3 Module Introduction
3.1.2 ADAM-2520Z
Wireless Sensor Network Modbus RTU Gateway
The ADAM-2520Z is designed as a gateway to translate the IEEE 802.15.4 WPAN to
Modbus Network. In a WPAN, the ADAM-2520Z works as a coordinator to collect and
translate data from end devices to host PC.
3.1.2.1 Specifications

DC
(USB)
– 0.3 W @ 3 V
DC
(2 x AA Batteries)
Operating Humidity: 20 ~ 95% RH
Storage Humidity: 0 ~ 95% RH
Operating Temperature:
– External Power -20°C ~ 70°C (-4°F ~ 157.9°F)
– Battery Power 0°C ~ 50°C (32°F ~ 122°F)
Storage Temperature: -40°C ~ 85°C (-40°F ~ 185°F)
Note! ADAM-2510Z router and ADAM-2520Z gateway are always in normal
transmission mode during operation, and which power consumption will
be higher than other end devices to shorten battery life, therefore, sug-
gest ADAM-2510Z and ADAM-2520Z adopt external power input for
main power source and battery power for backup power source.
