RS-485-PLC Extender
We all have been faced with this problem: An energy meter is located on the lower basement level with no communication options and difficult installation conditions for setting up a remote communication unit?
In this case, it is possible to install the EasyGateway® in a zone where mobile communication is unrestrictedly available, for example. The RS485-PLC-Extender can bridge the distance between the meter and the communication gateway using the power grid – quickly, unproblematically and without the need to install cables.
I/O module
Our I/O module is the ideal addition to our EasyGateway® family. It permits the integration of analog and digital signals into an existing network and is excellently suited for performing easy switching tasks. The I/O module has four independently switchable digital inputs and respectively two outputs. The inputs/outputs and the I/O module are configured by the EasyGateway via the web browser.
AarteWAN LoRa Gateway
Wireless for the IoT. The so-called Internet of Things (IoT) requires the wireless connection of many different devices, installations and machines.
