X-Gate
Danfoss X-Gate provides a flexible solution for translating the most common field protocols into Modbus RTU, facilitating integration within the System Manager.
Field protocols supported:
• Modbus RTU or TCP/IP
• BACnet MS/TP or IP
• CANBus
Moreover X-Gate provides northbound integration with Building Management System (BMS) by reading the XML Interface from System Manager and translating into: Modbus IP or BACnet IP.
Features and benefits
- X-Gate is an advanced Linux based device with the main capability to translate protocols from a “source of data” and make these data (typically data-points) available for a specific “destination of data”
- X-Gate can be easily installed into an electrical panel thanks to the DIN-rail mounting design
- X-Gate has been designed with a modular concept. On the main board there are built-in multiple access channels.
- X-Gate can accommodate an extra RS485 port as expansion module.
- On the Southbound, X-Gate can source data from the common list of protocols
- On the Northbound, X-Gate can provide data over a common list of protocols
- X-Gate provides a user-friendly web interface for the full system configuration with access control via account & password and user profile.
