RS485 over TCPIP datasource
-
Good morning,
I've to talk with a system talking in RS485 under a custom protocol,
this is transported over TCP using a Moxa Serial Device Server 5230A
translating between RS485 and TCP/IPIs there a way for mango to communicate with this custom protocol?

Thanks,

Hi Antonio,
This thread has some related information, but using the serial data source instead of the TCP/IP data source: https://forum.infiniteautomation.com/topic/2517/chinese-brand-psu_monitoring-rs485-and-mango
You could do similar things with either, meaning passing messages off to a script to be parsed. Or, if the protocol is simple enough and doesn't have any sort of handshake or exchange, the TCP/IP data source may be sufficient for the custom protocol.
Edit: this thread also refers to a few others: https://forum.infiniteautomation.com/topic/3337/integration-with-other-scada-system

Thanks for your answer,
I will try to arrange the solution.
