Modbus is widely used in building control mainly in the field of heating and ventilation. The KNX Modbus Gateway 716 enables a simple integration of Modbus devices which support the Modbus TCP protocol via IP.

The Gateway can act as a Modbus Master as well as a Slave. Modbus data is mapped to KNX communication objects and vice-versa compliant to KNX data point types. The assignment between KNX objects and Modbus registers is carried out flexibly via parameters in ETS® software.

The device is for rail mounting with a width of only 1 unit (18 mm). Three coloured LEDs on the front of the device visualize the connection and operation status.
