Moore Industries' NCS NET Concentrator® System Now with MODBUS RTU Communications



NORTH HILLS, CALIF. -- Moore Industries' NET Concentrator® System (NCS) Process Control and Distributed I/O Network is now available with MODBUS RTU (RS-485) communication capabilities. MODBUS RTU is one of the most widely used network protocols in the industrial manufacturing and factory automation environments. It is implemented by dozens of vendors to transfer multiple monitoring and control signals between the field and control room on one economical digital communications link.

With this addition, the NCS is now able to use twisted wire pair, Ethernet, wireless (RF), fiber, and telephone modem data links to send monitoring and control signals over rugged, long-distance, normally impassable, and hazardous environments.

The NCS provides exceptional 20-bit measurement resolution (in contrast to 12-, 14- or 16-bit for comparable I/O systems) and signal conditioning capabilities equivalent to the highest-quality transmitters on the market. Data rates up to 100 megabits per second provide the speed needed for applications requiring precise real-time readings or control.

The NCS's robust design, including its DIN rail-mount metal enclosure, complete channel-to-channel signal isolation and ability to withstand very high and very low ambient temperature conditions (-40°C to +85°C, -40°F to +185°F), allows reliability in the harshest installation environments.
