Communication Adapters (D77D Series) — Modbus Adapter
Product Description
The Cutler-Hammer
®
Intelligent Tech-
nologies (IT). Ethernet Modbus
Adapter (D77D-EMA) from Eaton’s
electrical business has greatly
increased the functionality of Cutler-
Hammer IT. communicating products,
allowing monitoring and control for IT.
I/O and IT. motor control devices. The
adapter concentrates all data from
these devices into a single Modbus
node.
The Modbus Adapter supports not
only Modbus TCP but also Modbus
serial (ASCII and RTU) as a slave
device. This combination of the two
physical layers provides for ultimate
functionality when connecting to a
Modbus system. A unique attribute of
the D77D-EMA is that it supports Mod-
bus serial Pass-Through. In this mode
a customer can connect Modbus serial
devices to one of the channels and
monitor and control them over
Modbus TCP.
To simplify the configuration of the
D77D-EMA, a simple auto-configure
button press sets the system up for
default operation. This automatically
configures the Modbus registers to the
I/O system devices.
Application Description
In a typical Modbus Adapter applica-
tion, the D77D-EMA connects directly
to Modbus, and resides in a system
with IT. I/O and other communicating
motor controls. The data from these
IT. devices is assembled into input and
output registers before being pre-
sented to Modbus.
Cat. No. D77D-EMA
