ADAM-4000 Remote
DA&C System
The ADAM-4000 remote DA&C system encompasses a full
product line integrating HMI platforms and numerous I/O
modules such as DI/O, AI/O, relay and counter modules.
In addition, we offer many communication models for data
transfer: Ethernet wireless, Modbus, RS-485, and fiber
optics. Users can choose among specific modes according
to their specific application purposes. Data transfer can be
uploaded to HMI platforms via a safe Ethernet channel for
monitoring and controlling. All this can be done using an
existing data bus without investing in extra hardware.
Modbus Communication
Protocol
Since Modbus
®
is one of the most popular communication
standards in the world, Advantech has applied it as the
major communication protocol for eAutomation product
development. The new-generation ADAM-4000 modules
now also support the Modbus/RTU protocol as the
remote data transmission mechanism. These modules
(ADAM-4015/4017+/4018+/4019+/4024/4051/4055/40
56S/4056SO/4068/4069), include analog I/O and digital
I/O, needed in a data acquisition system. Featuring the
Modbus-support capacity, the new ADAM-4000 series
becomes universal remote I/O modules, which work with
any Modbus systems. The HMI server or controller can
read/write data via standard Modbus command instead of
complex ASCII code.
Ethernet
ADAM-4570 and ADAM-4571 are designed for the
connection between serial devices (RS-232/485/422)
and Ethernet. With ADAM-4570 or ADAM-4571, you can
use graphical control software to monitor and control
I/O modules. With existing devices, you can connect to
an Ethernet network with the benefits of enhanced host
performance and convenience.
RS-485
The ADAM-4000 series of modules use the EIA RS-485
communication protocol, the industry’s most widely used
bi-directional, balanced transmission line standard. The
EIA RS-485 was specifically developed for industrial
applications. It lets ADAM-4000 modules transmit and
receive data at high rates over long distances. All modules
use optical isolators to prevent ground loop problems and
reduce damages caused by power surges.
Fiber Optics
If users need to transmit over long distances without noise
interference, ADAM-4541 and ADAM-4542+ are designed
for this task. The ADAM-4541 is a multi-mode converter,
which carries signals from fiber optics to RS-232/485. It
offers a transmission distance of up to 2500 m with a total
immunity to electromagnetic noise.
Remote Data Acquisition and Control Modules
GSM Communication
Module
The ADAM-4581 1-port GSM to RS-232/485 Wireless Data
Gateway product provides GSM CSD data communication
as well as SMS service through the interface with the Dual-
band GSM (900/1800) module for applications in facility
management systems, water/wastewater monitoring,
pipeline monitoring, unmanned telecommunication
facility monitoring, surveillance, as well as others. The
ADAM-4581’s interface uses the industrial device standard
RS-232/485 with auto-flow control.
