Ethernet Gateway
The iMeter 6's Ethernet port together with its RS485 port can be used as an Ethernet Gateway (EtherGate) to
allow communications between a Modbus Master on an Ethernet network and a number of RS485-enabled
devices connected to the iMeter 6's RS485 port using the
Modbus RTU over TCP/IP
protocol as shown in
Figure 4-13 Topological Graph
Please follow the below steps to setup the iMeter 6’s RS485 port as an Ethernet Gateway:
1)
Set the IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway Address
2)
Set the Protocol of the P1 Port as
EtherGate
3)
Configure the IP Port No. (default=6000) and make sure that it matches that of the Modbus Master Software.
4)
Please note that the iMeter 6’s Ethernet Gateway is a Transparent Gateway only and not a Modbus TCP to
RTU Gateway.
For detailed information on how to use the Ethernet Gateway feature, please refer to PMC Setup's User Manual.
