3 Basic Features of AWIN GW120 Gateway
The AWIN GW120 is a WirelessHART gateway. It can connect with up to 100 WirelessHART
field devices and convert the HART data to Modbus TCP data for easy integration into almost
any ModbusTCP based host system. The connection can be established via the onboard
Ethernet ports. HART to Modbus TCP mapping is available in both automatic and manual
modes. In automatic mode, the gateway automatically assigns registers to available parame-
ters. Whereas, in case of manual mode the user has to supply a custom Modbus list in the
form of an XML file.
