Overview

LNX-506M-24V is a Modbus converter that connects to RS-485 via LAN. It converts protocols from Modbus TCP to Modbus RTU/ASCII. The device can be operated as either a master or a slave. This allows Modbus devices to be connected over Ethernet. Modbus is used for both serial and Ethernet devices, but the physical connection and protocol are different, requiring protocol conversion for interconnection. LNX-506M-24V enables integration of Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU/ASCII networks. It supports a wide range of power input from DC 5 to 30V, and can be powered by DC 24V, which is commonly used in control panels.

  • MADE IN JAPAN

Connection example

[LNX-506M-24V Slave Mode]

LNX-506M-24V
You can control remote Modbus RTU/ASCII slave devices via Ethernet.If the master is a PC, the IP address assigned to the LNX-506M-24V can also be used by assigning it to the virtual COM port.

[LNX-506M-24V Master Mode]

LNX-003M
Modbus RTU/ASCII master device can communicate with remote Modbus TCP slave device via Ethernet

[Tunneling mode between multiple LNX-506M-24V]

LNX-003M
Direct communication between multiple LNX-506M-24V without PCs offers you to connect separated a RS-485 networks. By using cross cable, one to one connection is also available.
