Supports MTConnect Protocol for Monitoring Digital Inputs

MTConnect is designed specifically for shop-floor applications that

aim to convert shop-floor data into a standard format that can be

understood by any MTConnect-compliant software applications.

Once the data has been defined by an MTConnect-compliant

interface (name, type, description, etc.), it eliminates the need to

redefine the data within each application. For those legacy machine

tools that do not support MTConnect, the common practice is to get

machine-related data through sensor connections and I/Os. Moxa

NPort IA5000A-I/O supports MTConnect-enabled capability for all

digital inputs on the device and provides a configurable interface for

users to define what data and appropriate MTConnect tags need to

be tied to the digital inputs.

Secure Remote Management and Configuration With SSH/HTTPS

Unauthorized access is one of the biggest headaches for system managers. In addition to IP filtering and password protection, the NPort IA5000A-

I/O also supports SSH and HTTPS to provide protection from hackers. To transmit control messages securely, open the web console using a web

browser that supports HTTPS (Internet Explorer, for example). You may also open the serial or Telnet console, such as PuTTY, using a terminal

emulator that supports SSH.

Select Any Baudrate Between 50 bps and 921.6 kbps

Most device servers only support a fixed number of serial baudrates. However, some applications require special baudrates, such as 250 kbps or

500 kbps. With the NPort IA5000A-I/O, you can use any baudrate between 50 and 921.6 kbps. If your device’s baudrate is not a standard baudrate,

select “other” from the drop-down list and then enter the baudrate.
