In master-slave fieldbus communication networks, precise response timeout settings are an important yet complicated task for network integrators when trying to calibrate accurate timeframes to achieve optimized system performance. In the past, integrators often spent a substantial amount of time in trying to manually configure timeout settings through trial-and-error methods. Moxa’s patented AutoCalibration technology offers a 1-click automated approach to auto-configure response timeout settings.

QuickLink, an innovative Moxa technology, simplifies the configuration of gateways to enable seamless connections between Modbus and PROFIBUS communications. QuickLink supports intelligent AutoLearning and AutoMapping, and replaces traditional methods of gateway configuration that are tedious and time-consuming. QuickLink is a standard feature of Moxa’s MGate Manager utility, and allows system integrators to finish their gateway configuration in just minutes, and most importantly, ensures that configurations are done right the first time, virtually eliminating the possibility of human error.

Moxa's industrial Ethernet gateways feature AutoScan, which detects all connected PROFIBUS slave devices and their available Read Configuration Data (Get_Cfg). After configuration is done, an easy-to-read data mapping table is created to assist in the configuration of Modbus TCP masters, such as SCADA servers and PLCs. With Moxa's AutoScan, you no longer need to spend a lot of time configuring devices yourself, but instead can focus on monitoring data without needing to worry about every different protocol.
