General Description

 

CoolEx is a Modbus I/O extender with analog, digital and PWM inputs and outputs. CoolEx can be used in conjunction with Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) or any other Modbus master that requires some extra I/O or special I/O functionality. CoolEx is controlled by master by means of standard Modbus requests defined in "Modbus Application Protocol Specification".
CoolEx physical connection to MODBUS is Two-Wire EIA/TIA-485 standard interface recommended by "Modbus over Serial Line Specification and Implementation Guide". A number of CoolEx devices can be connected to single 2W-bus. To utilize CoolEx with TCP/IP Modbus master over Ethernet network MODBUS 485RTU/TCP Gateway can be used.
