For demanding factory applications, Lantronix introduces the XPress-DR+™ industrial device server. The XPress-DR+enables users to remotely configure, monitor and control PLCs, drives, motion controllers, power equipment, barcode scanners and other serial devices from any where over the Net.
A versatile, powerful tool for remote management of automation and assembly/packaging equipment at manufacturing sites, automated distribution centers, refinery plants – or any industrial setting – it provides complete access and control of virtually any type of equipment with a serial port!
Extending Network Connectivity with SwitchPort+
Supporting two serial ports and two 10/100 Ethernet ports, the XPress-DR+ features patent-pending SwitchPort+ technology which enables multiple industrial serial devices to be daisy chained (cascaded) from a single network backbone connection. SwitchPort+ combines Lantronix advanced device server technology with Ethernet switching technology to provide a robust and reliable method for networking equipment. Saves time and money by avoiding unnecessary cable runs and eliminates serial cable distance limitations.
Standards Based Communications
Using an open Ethernet architecture as a standard for device communication provides the flexibility to communicate to virtually any type of industrial equipment. Additionally it enables new equipment to be added without trouble.
Thrives in the Industrial Environment
The XPress-DR+ meets the demanding, complex industrial environment head on. Packaged in a rugged DIN-rail mount case, it’s equipped with isolated serial and Ethernet ports and screw terminal connectors for serial and power. It supports industrial protocols such as Modbus TCP, Modbus ASCII, Modbus RTU and DF1, and is FM-approved for hazardous locations Class 1, Div. 2.
