Data Acquisition: Serial Port Server vs. Communication Management Machine (Data Acquisition Gateway)

Data Acquisition: Serial Port Server vs. Communication Management Machine (Data Acquisition Gateway)

In industrial production environments, it is often necessary to collect operational parameters of devices, such as power, temperature, pressure, and flow, through various sensors. The signal outputs collected are generally 4-20mA/0-10V 485 signals, which cannot be directly read by software platforms. Therefore, they need to be converted into TCP/IP signals. Devices that can achieve this … Read more
