Description

The Moxa MGate 5216/KC is a 2-port industrial serial/Modbus to EtherCAT gateway that converts Modbus RTU/ASCII and proprietary serial protocols to EtherCAT. This KC certified variant is rated for 0 to 60°C operation and suits factory automation and machine control networks where serial devices must join an EtherCAT network.

Two software-selectable RS-232/422/485 DB9 serial ports provide 2 kV isolation, and MicroPython support allows custom handling of proprietary serial protocols. The rugged metal DIN-rail housing, dual redundant 12 to 48 VDC power inputs and relay output make it suitable for demanding industrial cabinets, while the two 10/100 Ethernet ports support easy cascading.

Features

- Protocol conversion from proprietary serial or Modbus to EtherCAT
- EtherCAT slave support

FAQs

Q: What protocols does the MGate 5216/KC convert between?
A: It acts as an EtherCAT slave and converts Modbus RTU/ASCII (as a client/master) or proprietary serial protocols via MicroPython to EtherCAT.

Q: What serial interfaces are supported?
A: It provides two DB9 male serial ports, each supporting RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485, with 2 kV isolation.

Q: How much process data can it handle?
A: The gateway supports up to 512 bytes of input and 512 bytes of output data.

Q: What power input does it need?
A: It accepts 12 to 48 VDC through a spring-type Euroblock terminal, with dual redundant power inputs and a relay output.

Q: What is the operating temperature range?
A: This variant operates from 0 to 60°C, with a storage range of -40 to 85°C.

Q: Can I run custom serial protocols?
A: Yes. MicroPython support lets you script handling of proprietary serial protocols, with up to 64 commands per serial port.
