COM2 P R O T O C O L C O N V E R T E R G A T E W A Y OEMS—Add Ethernet and OPC connectivity to all of your machines. Add a Data Station Plus to your equipment, and you can offer your customers out-of-box connectivity to their SCADA systems, while providing yourself the means to remotely support the machine. The DSP’s ability to support ten Ethernet protocols simultaneously, while offering OPC compatibility, means you don’t have to worry about how the system will be integrated at the user’s facility. And that’s just the beginning. The “port sharing” facility allows the Data Station Plus to act as a remote serial port to your PC, meaning you can reprogram any connected serial device from virtually anywhere in the world. Data Station Connectivity Now it’s easy to get all your devices on the same page. Red Lion’s Data Station Plus is the single-device solution for protocol conversion. The DSP bridges the communication gap between disparate serial, Ethernet and fieldbus devices—unlocking untold information from PLCs, drives, motion controllers, etc., orphaned by incompatible communications standards. Drag and drop register mapping allows a Siemens PLC to talk to an Allen Bradley drive in just seconds. With a growing list of over 300 serial, Ethernet and fieldbus drivers, the DSP allows you to choose the best-in-class automation components, without worrying over whether or not they’ll communicate with one another. Network your existing equipment to avoid risk. Getting legacy machines onto a common communications backbone used to be largely impossible, sometimes requiring a complete replacement of the automation components. The Data Station Plus allows you to convert your old PLC’s and drive’s proprietary protocol into a modern and open standard. By unlocking information hidden in these legacy devices, you save money while avoiding a risky upgrade to equipment that is otherwise working perfectly. Seamless integration of multi-vendor systems 2
