Gateway to connect a Vantage Pro2 weather station to a Modbus network using TCP/IP.

Reference
KTA-282
Available (10 Items)

The Modbus gateway for Vantage Pro 2 weather stations allows you to easily connect a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), RTU (Remote Telemetry Unit), or SCADA system to a Davis Instruments Vantage Pro2 weather station.

Using the MODBUS protocol, your PLC can monitor weather parameters and perform automation actions based on wind speed, wind direction, temperature, and many other variables.

Compatible weather stations:

The KTA-282 Modbus gateway is compatible with the following Davis Instruments products associated with a WeatherLink SERIE 6510SER data logger.

  • Vantage Pro2 cable 6152CEU
  • Vantage pro2 Plus cable 6162CEU
  • Vantage Pro2 Wireless 6152EU/
  • Vantage Pro2 Plus wireless 6162EU
  • Vantage Pro2 with active ventilation 6153EU
  • Vantage Pro2 Plus with Active Fan 6163EU
  • 6316EU Wireless Weather Envoy Console (with 6322OV sensor suite)
  • 6316CEU Cabled Weather Envoy Console (with 6322C sensor suite)

The interface connects to the station using the WeatherLink RS-232 datalogger and appears on the Modbus network as a Modbus TCP/IP or RTU slave. This allows your PLC to monitor and take action based on wind speed, wind direction, temperature and many other parameters.
