A.Z. Dynamic Modbus Protocol
A.Z. Dynamic Modbus Protocol allows a network of Modbus Devices with different communication settings to communicate on 1 network.
This is very useful when a network consists mainly of fast devices and one or two slow devices.
Other SCADA solution providers only support 1 communication setting. One communication setting results in the speed of the total network determined by the slowest device.
For instance if a network consists of 10 fast devices and 1 slow device, the fast devices need to be set to the slow communication setting. Resulting in a slow network, low sample rates and slow responses.
With A.Z. Dynamic Modbus Protocol only the slow devices is addressed at a slow rate, the others are addresses at full speed.
A.Z. Dynamic Modbus Protocol is available for Windows PC and WinCE6
