BTR102

Product page →

Connects your instruments' RS485 bus to the network: a PLC or SCADA reads every Modbus RTU slave as if it were on Modbus TCP. In the gateway versions it polls up to 20 requests, collects them in a register map and publishes them via web, MQTT and LoRa.

  • Transparent bridgeEvery Modbus TCP request on port 502 is forwarded to the RTU bus.
  • Up to 20 requestsTo RTU slaves on RS485 or TCP slaves on Ethernet, Wi-Fi STA and Wi-Fi AP.
  • Ethernet and Wi-FiRJ45 10/100, Wi-Fi client and access point for configuration.
  • SD and USB loggingBGM and BGML versions: CSV files, immediate or scheduled start. Firmware update from a USB stick.
  • Display and touch keyInterface status at a glance, physical credential reset.
  • SecurityHTTPS with TLS certificates, two access roles, Modbus TCP allowlist, security log.

Four versions, one hardware.

Choose according to what the device has to do: TCP ↔ RTU bridge only, gateway with data collection, cloud upload, LoRa communication.

Accessory · DIN rail

T-BUS

1-module, 5-pole connector that fits into the DIN rail under the meter. By placing several connectors side by side, EMT13x meters share power and the RS485 bus without wiring each module.

  • EMT132SELV 10–36 Vdc or 19–26 Vac supply and RS485 communication.
  • EMT130RS485 communication only: the meter is powered from its voltage inputs.
  • Less wiringOne power supply and one RS485 cable for the whole row of meters.
  • 1 DIN module17.5 mm pitch, white.
