Description
BinMaster BinCloud Gateway can connect to multiple Modbus networks simultaneously, unlike many gateways that are limited to just one. One gateway can do the work of multiple gateways, saving you money. Both BinMaster and competitors’ Modbus-capable devices can be connected to a single BinCloud Gateway. RTU, TCP, and RTU over TCP protocols are supported. BinMaster battery-powered sensors using LoRa long range communications, such as the FVL-200 and SPL-100 lasers, are also compatible.
Features
- Compatible with a variety of network infrastructures
- Supports RTU, TCP, and RTU over TCP protocols
- Global cellular coverage utilizing 4G LTE, CAT-M, and NB-IoT technologies
- Accepts 4-20 mA, digital, mV, RTD, and Potentiometer inputs
- Fast update times of two to five seconds
- Programmable to automatically switch to cell data in the event of a downed Ethernet or WiFi network
- Cell modem replaceable upon release of next generation cellular
- Can connect to multiple Modbus networks simultaneously
- Compatible with BinMaster’s wireless technologies to connect remote sensors
BinMaster BinCloud Gateway is compatible with all BinMaster’s wireless technologies to connect remote sensors. This includes the WL-19/20 wireless transceivers, Ubiquiti radios, and the WR-30, and WR-90 point-to-point and point-to-multipoint wireless systems. This saves money on wiring costs associated with your inventory system and simplifies installation.

BinMaster BinCloud Gateway uses one less step in the communications process to promote faster, more reliable communications than other gateway designs. The sensor sends data directly to the BinCloud gateway, then to the BinMaster Cloud for access by the user. This ensures fast update times of two to five seconds. It also reduces error messages and missed readings that are common to other gateway providers.
