| Software Options |
| The standard Babel Buster 10/100 provides 30 NVOs and 28 NVIs. The -F50 option provides 46 NVOs and 8 NVIs. The -T50 option provides 8 NVOs and 50 NVIs. Select the "T50" option if data is flowing mostly "To Modbus", and "F50" if data is flowing mostly "From Modbus". Select the standard version (no suffix) for a roughly even mix. |
| You can convert Babel Buster 10/100 to another version simply by re-commissioning the device in LonMaker, and selecting the "Load Application Image". The optional images and XIF files may be downloaded from the zip file right here.

Babel Buster 10/100 is a fully configurable universal LonWorks to Modbus/TCP gateway. The Modbus master is used to make Modbus/TCP devices accessible on a LonWorks network. The Modbus slave is used to make LonWorks devices accessible on a Modbus/TCP network.
As a Modbus master (client), Babel Buster 10/100 can poll multiple Modbus slave IP addresses, and can be bound to any number of LonWorks devices. As a Modbus slave (server), Babel Buster 10/100 responds to a single IP address, and may be bound to any number of LonWorks devices. Babel Buster 10/100 operates as both client and server concurrently, with master and slave functionality enabled on an object by object basis.
LonWorks network variable data is translated to Modbus register data, and vice versa. Modbus polling rates and LonWorks network update rates are fully configurable. Register mapping and network variable types (SNVT) are fully configurable.
The LonMark Certified Babel Buster 10/100 conforms fully to LonMark version 3.3. The only tool required to configure Babel Buster is LonMaker version 3.
