Webserver Settings
When PiiGAB M-Bus 900S/T is delivered it is in HTTPS mode. It is possible to choose HTTP
without a password as well. This option is available for customers that have a well-protected
network including many different units connected in that network. In this event it would be
close to impossible to keep track of all the passwords for the staff on site.

Modbus2MBus
Modbus2MBus is an additional software application that makes it possible to read Modbus
meters and other Modbus units via the M-Bus client. By using Modbus2MBus your Modbus
meters or Modbus units are viewed as virtual M-Bus meters in your M-Bus system. This opens
up the possibility to mix Modbus and M-Bus units on your network.
Observe that M-Bus (MBusHub) Master and slaveports cannot be the same as for Modbus2MBus
master/ slave ports

QuickPost
QuickPost is an additional program that makes it possible for the user to let the gateway send
specified data to an FTP-server alternatively to an HttpPost server
. Therefore, no middle
computer is needed to handle the communication with the data base. In order to post meter
data the QuickPost turns into an internal client for the PiiGAB M-Bus 900S/T. The other slave
ports can be used as before to connect separate M-Bus clients and/or Modbus clients for direct
reading of meters etc.
