Industrial Ethernet Gateways
Industrial Ethernet Gateways >
Moxa’s industrial Ethernet gateways feature a web-based monitoring
tool that supports data import/export and log recording capabilities.
The monitoring tool streamlines device configuration, maintenance,
and troubleshooting, and supports encryption functions such as
HTTPS and SSH to prevent unauthorized access. With this tool, users
can reduce their cost since they won’t need to purchase additional
monitoring tools.
For mission-critical industrial applications, the failure of a single
link can affect operational efficiency. Moxa’s gateways are certified
for use in hazardous environments (ATEX Zone 2, Class 1 Division
2), support a -40 to 75°C wide operating temperature (the highest
operating temperature on the market; available with some models),
and feature dual power inputs for connecting to a redundant power
source to ensure reliable performance. In addition, Moxa gateways
are recognized by several important organizations, such as PROFIBUS
& PROFINET International (PI), Open DeviceNet Vendors Association
(ODVA™), and the Modbus Organization (Modbus.org).
One-Click Detection of I/O Parameters
Moxa’s industrial Ethernet gateways feature AutoScan, which detects
all connected PROFIBUS slave devices and their available Read
Configuration Data (Get_Cfg). After configuration is done, an easy-
to-read data mapping table is created to assist in the configuration of
Modbus TCP masters, such as SCADA servers and PLCs. With Moxa’s
AutoScan, you no longer need to spend a lot of time configuring
devices yourself, but instead can focus on monitoring data without
needing to worry about every different protocol.
Real-time monitoring is critical for any industrial system, and
Moxa’s MGate Manager Windows utility is not only designed for
easy configuration, but also for uninterrupted monitoring and
troubleshooting of the connections between the fieldbus system and
remote control system. MGate Manager logs events initiated by the
gateway, and records all commands and responses that pass through
AutoLearning and AutoMapping Intelligence for
Connecting Modbus to PROFIBUS
QuickLink, an innovative Moxa technology, simplifies the configuration
of gateways to enable seamless connections between Modbus
and PROFIBUS communications. QuickLink supports intelligent
AutoLearning and AutoMapping, and replaces traditional methods of
gateway configuration that are tedious and time-consuming. QuickLink
is a standard feature of Moxa’s MGate Manager utility that not only
allows system integrators to finish their gateway configuration in just
minutes, but also ensures that configurations are done right the first
time, virtually eliminating the possibility of human error.

the gateway, assisting users in determining the root cause of failures
and identifying performance bottlenecks. The automatic relay output
warning for the Ethernet link and power input status gives maintenance
engineers an intelligent notification tool for quick troubleshooting and
easy maintenance.
