Wired is inconvenient, wireless is unreliable. What if you could combine the best of both worlds?
We present ZigBee-Modbus-R1 a unique device designed to solve this very problem. It's a hybrid
relay that simultaneously supports both the wired Modbus RTU interface and the wireless ZigBee
network. This allows you to create truly flexible and fault-tolerant control systems.
Key Features:
Flexible Installation: Use the ZigBee wireless protocol where running cables is impossible or not cost-effective.
Industrial Reliability: Rely on the time-tested Modbus wired protocol for mission-critical parts of your system
where stability is paramount.
Maximum Fault Tolerance (Failover): Activate both interfaces simultaneously. In case of a failure on one network
(e.g., a cable break or strong radio interference), the device remains controllable via the second network,
ensuring uninterrupted operation.
Our project is fully open-source. You are free to study, modify, and use our work.
