HARBOR CITY, CA, April 21, 2012

Data acquisition is the transformation of real world information like temperature, pressure and voltage into digital information a PLC, controller or computer can understand. Modbus RTU is a communication protocol that utilizes the serial bus and makes use of binary representation of data for protocol
communication. The tM series is a new family of tiny network data acquisition and control modules that provide digital input output functions like photo-isolated digital input, photoMOS relay output, relay contact and open-collector output. They can be
remotely controlled through an RS-485 serial bus with DCON and Modbus RTU protocols. DCON protocol is a simple ASCII format protocol.
