The SCADASwitch has two RS232 input ports and a RS232/RS485 output. With low power draw, small size, DIN rail mounting, and Class I Div 2 rating it is ideal for use in remote EFM/RTU applications.

- ● 1200BPS – 115KBPS Baud
- ● 10-30VDC Operation
- ● Low Current Draw – 6ma @ 12VDC
- ● Class I Div 2
- ● -40 to 70 C Operation
- ● DIN Rail Mount
- ● Configuration via RS232 Terminal
- ● PLC, RTU, EFM, Power Meter, Data Logger
- ● Pipeline SCADA
- ● Oil & Gas RTU/EFM SCADA
Modbus Multiplexing Mode
Allows 2 SCADA Hosts to share single port of a RTU/EFM device. Works for other requests / response protocols (ie. Modbus, Fisher ROC).
RS232 Switch Mode
Allows a configuration computer to connect to an RTU/EFM
device without the need to disconnect the SCADA Host.
Modbus Address Translation
Translates Modbus address on Input Port to a
different address on Output Port. This feature is useful when the same RTU exists on
2 different SCADA networks and is addressed with different Modbus address on each
network.
Modbus Register Write Blocking
Prevent Modbus Writes to PLC/RTU/EFM on a
specific Input Port. This feature can be used to grant Read-Only access to a third party SCADA host.
RS232 Radio Keying
Allows an RTU with nohandshaking signals to key a radio.
RS485 Conversion
Converts RS-232 to RS-485.
Custom Protocol Conversion
Upon special request, Bentek Systems can develop
custom protocol conversion firmware for SCADASwitch (ie. to enable Modbus protocol for specialized devices)
