Product Listing by Category: Gateways
My network is: BACnet MS/TP - BACnet IP
Modbus RTU - Modbus TCP - LonWorks - SNMP

The goal of Control Solutions' gateway products is to put devices having a common building automation protocol on a network having a different protocol than the device was made for.

We provide support for building automation with BACnet, LonWorks, Modbus, and ZigBee. We support data centers and IT infrastructure with SNMP.

We strive to make our gateways as easy to use as possible, and strive to make our gateways the most cost effective products available.

If you need help picking a gateway, you can use the Gateway Chooser to help you select the right model, or determine if we even have what you are looking for.

LonWorks - BACnet - Modbus - SNMP - Wireless

Open system architecture is a key element in today's control system designs. Connectivity using standard protocols is a vital ingredient in an open system. The ability to use multiple protocols in a single system enhances the flexibility of the system while allowing one to take advantage of a wider variety of products available on the market. Control Solutions gateways maximize system connectivity options. Options include

• Modbus to LonWorks and LonWorks to Modbus translation
• SNMP to Modbus and Modbus to SNMP translation
• Modbus to BACnet and BACnet to Modbus translation
• LonWorks to BACnet translation
• ZigBee to Modbus and ZigBee to BACnet translation

Is this you looking for
a network gateway? 

You need to start with two pieces of information:
(1) What protocol is on the network?
(2) What protocol does the device talk?
Then check the list below or use the Gateway Chooser. If we have it, this tool will take you right to it.

Are these gateways
easy to set up?

"Easy" is a relative term. If you are new to gateways, the answer is probably "no". But many customers who have used other gateways do tell us that ours are easier to set up than any other gateway they've used. Plus, all the drivers you need are included in the one low price.
