Remote communication with M-Bus meters using the Ethernet network in industry and building automation. The converter works as a transparent gateway for the transmission of M-Bus messages using TCP or UDP Ethernet protocols.
Meter data processing. The converter works as a server in the Smart M-Bus mode. It communicates with the M-bus meters independently, processes their data and stores them in its own memory.
The meter data is simultaneously available in form of:
• table on a webpage
• xml, xml(REST) and csv export
• M-Bus protocol communication
• e-mail with attached xml, csv exports
M-Bus port
• Connection of 1 to 5 M-Bus slave devices.
The most commonly used are heat, water, gas and electricity consumption meters.
• Surge protection guaranteeing superior durability against overvoltage.
• Current protection against overload and short circuit on the communication line with LED status indication.
Power supply
• Wide range of power supply voltages. DC 10-33V or AC 12-24V.
• Protection against overvoltage and resettable fuse with LED indication of power supply.
Ethernet
• TCP, UDP protocols and virtual COM port software.
• 10/100BASE-TX ethernet port, RJ45 connector.
Mechanical construction
• Aluminium box with mounting on 35 mm DIN rail.
Transparent gateway mode:
• TCP/IP connection
- server or client mode
- backup IP addresses for connection
- connection to a web address (DNS)
• UDP connection
Smart M-Bus application mode:
• web page with meter data
• xml, xml(REST), csv exports
• e-mails with exports and service information
In between years 2011-2014 more than 400 units of the Ethernet to M-Bus converters have been deployed in cooperation with the company IPECON s.r.o. for several custommers in Slovakia and Czech Republic. Converters were used to collect data from utility heat meters into SCADA systems.
• Each converter passes through several functional electrical tests during the production.
Additionally a communication test is performed after final assembly.
• EMC certification in an accredited laboratory for industrial environment.
• Solid design and construction based on many years practical experience.
• More then 4 years of seamless and trouble free operation of the deployed converters in various applications.
