Babel Buster SPX SNMP to Modbus Gateway

Description

Babel Buster SPX is a Modbus to Modbus and a Modbus to SNMP Gateway. The SPX is more than a protocol translator. It is a self contained server that collects and distributes data according to the rules you create. The most common use of the SPX is to map Modbus RTU and/or Modbus TCP devices to SNMP. The SNMP manager can use SNMP Get to retrieve contents of any mapped Modbus register. In addition, the SPX uses threshold rule templates to continuously monitor Modbus data and generate SNMP Traps upon sensing of “alarm” conditions.

Babel Buster SPX is an SNMP Agent (server), but also includes an SNMP Client. This means the SPX can query other SNMP devices and make their data available to Modbus or rule processing to generate traps not originally provided by the other SNMP equipment.

The primary applications for Babel Buster SPX are serial to Ethernet conversion for Modbus devices, and SNMP access to serial or Ethernet Modbus devices. As a Modbus to Modbus gateway, the SPX will map multiple RTU devices to a single Modbus TCP server map. It can also map multiple Modbus TCP devices to a single RTU slave map. The SPX can also do Modbus TCP to Modbus TCP register re-mapping to retrofit equipment to a legacy Modbus register map. The Modbus RTU port can be configured as master or slave. The Modbus TCP port can operate as both client and server (master and slave) concurrently.

The SPX includes its own internal web server that provides a web based user interface for configuring the SPX. Configuration is done using simple templates, and each web page has an online help section at the bottom.
