New Features added to Zlinx Wireless Modbus I/O Ottawa, IL – A major software upgrade to the Zlinx™ Wireless I/O line was released this week that added features and improved the performance, giving the ability to update an analog Modbus input as fast as 15ms, and down to 8ms for a digital input. Zlinx Wireless Modbus I/O is flexible enough to fit your applications. These plug-n-play modular units from B&B Electronics combine traditional Modbus RTU remote analog and discrete I/O with built-in wireless connectivity – reducing cost, simplifying installation and support. Wireless RTU serves as Modbus slave RTU in radio-based SCADA systems or as a peer-to-peer communication platform. The new features added to the Zlinx series are shown below. Improved Latency – Very low I/O latency allows real time control and monitoring. Exception Reporting – In Modbus mode, allows the reporting of possible problems with connected devices. Fail Safe – Allows you to set your I/O to a safe state in the event of a communication failure. Calibration – Calculates correction factors to make I/O values more accurate or to better match a sensor. Communications Failure Alarm – Allows the first DO to be configured as a COM failure alarm indicator. Peer-to-Peer I/O Configuration – One to one I/O mapping of 2 identical systems. Allows remote control of analog and digital I/Os. Monitor – You can use the Zlinx Manager Software to monitor your I/O. The new and improved Zlinx Wireless Modbus I/O is available direct from B&B Electronics. Call 1-800-346-3119 or visit www.bb-elec.com for product and ordering information.
