DataLink Technologies GW1000 www.datalink-gw1000abeip.com is a multi-protocol converter interfacing DF1, ASCII, Modbus RTU, AB Ethernet, Ethernet/IP, Modbus TCP/IP to Allen-Bradley Data Highway Plus DH+, and DH-485. This cost effective gateway bridges Legacy Factory Networks to Newer Ethernet Technologies. DataLink Technologies GW1000 is a great low-cost alternative gateway converter option to Allen-Bradley's Datahighway Plus DH+ and DH-485 Network Communications cards including the 1784-U2DHP, 1784-PCMK, 1784-PKTX, 1784-KTX, 1770-KF2, and the 1770-KF3. Many of these DH+/DH-485 Communications converter cards are now obsolete as PC technology has advanced and AB now recommends the external cable solution of the 1784-U2DHP for most AB Datahighway Plus and DH-485 applications. The DataLink Technologies GW1000 converter is a superior alternative with its most popular highlight including a flexible platform that allows users in the field change protocols between DF1, ASCII, Modbus, ModTCP, AB Ethernet or Ethernet/IP to message with any nodes on DH+. Another popular feature of the GW1000 is its usefulness in industrial applications wanting to communicate between the newest Allen Bradley Ethernet PLCs to Legacy Allen-Bradley DataHighway Plus and DH-485 Networks. This allows factories to budget in an Ethernet transition option to a current DH+ factory setting. In developing this converter solution, DataLink engineered it as a multiprotocol converter and included protocols such as DF1, Modbus, ASCII & ModTCP Ethernet to AB's DH+ and DH485. Some of the most common applications between AB Ethernet & Ethernet/IP to Datahighway Plus DH+ & Datahighway 485 include: • SCADA/MMI/Programming Software -RLSINX/LOGIX/VIEW, Wondware, Kepware, Citect, Intellution, et. all packages reading/writing data to and from any nodes. • Allowing any AB Ethernet & Ethernet/IP PLC as Master - examples include: Controllogix, SLC 5/05, MicroLogix, SLC 5/05, CompactLogix, FlexLogix, PLC-5E to send either read or write message commands to any DataHighway Plus PLCs which include SLC 5/04s and PLC-5s. DataLink GW1000 engineering was many years in the making and came from our customers requests based on limitations found in AB Interface cards. The most common request was for an AB Ethernet/IP gateway to Legacy AB Networks including Datahighway Plus and Datahighway 485 DH-485. DataLink Technologies GW1000 one box gateway solution is offered at a low price of $1,250 USD.
