The only tool you need for configuring this remote I/O, alarms and logic, and linking it to other systems, is the web site contained within the device itself.

We created the BAS-700 building block approach to let you create your own Modbus or SNMP I/O node. You simply plug together the modules you need! Packaging is simple and economical with cut-to-size snap track. Creating a custom system is easy and economical with the BAS-700 series.

i.CanDoIt - BAS-7050 Features

• Mix of analog and discrete I/O options
• Local area network gateway options
• Simple web based configuration
• Modbus/TCP client and server
• SNMP v2 agent (v2c traps)

Why Modbus?

The evolution of advanced machine to machine protocols once led some of us to believe Modbus would be dead by now. Why isn't it? The answer is simple: Modbus is simple. Modbus isn't dead, Modbus is growing in popularity. Modbus doesn't require an over priced protocol stack. Modbus doesn't require expensive network management tools. Modbus is understandable by just about anybody. And with i.CanDoIt, the only tool you need is the browser you're using to read this!

"I want to use Ethernet to turn on a relay in a remote location from a switch here."

"I want to use Ethernet to turn on an indicator light when a tank level a mile away reaches a certain level."

You can use i.CanDoIt to do these things with simple fill-in-the-blank rule templates.

SNMP remote monitoring of 24 dry contact status inputs can be done in a very compact package illustrated here.
