Re: Has anyone integrate xap with DL05 PLC from automation direct.

Hi Jos=E9,

AFAIK DL05 has a Modbus RTU (RS485) interface that can work in slave mode.
=
As Kevin pointed, opn-mbs can be connect to any Modbus RTU network and
work=
as master. It has nice programming capabilities (time and logic events) th=
rough the web-enabled Event Manager, it can work at different serial
speeds=
and can read/write any value compliant with the Modbus RTU protocol. Final=
ly, opn-mbs acts as xAP BSC gateway.

opn-mbs also provides a couple of features that let the Modbus network be
c=
ontrolled from Internet:

- Through the embedded web server (Endpoint Manager)
- Through the new XML Opnode Remote protocol so that you can poll/push
valu=
es from any Remote TCP server. This feature has being specially designed
fo=
r Energy Management Web Portals.

opn-mbs is just going to be beta-tested at this moment and the final
releas=
e is being prepared for this summer. If you decide to do the integration
wi=
th Asterisk via xAP, this could be your best way IMHO.

Good luck with your project,

Daniel.
