Prosoft 5601-RIO-MCM

Remote I/O to Modbus Communication Gateway

Product Overview

The Prosoft 5601-RIO-MCM is a specialized industrial communication gateway that enables seamless data exchange between Remote I/O (RIO) networks and Modbus-based systems. This module acts as a protocol translator, facilitating interoperability between legacy RIO equipment and modern Modbus RTU/TCP automation platforms. Designed for rugged industrial environments, it provides reliable communication in manufacturing, process control, and factory automation applications where system integration is critical.

Core Features

  • Bidirectional data conversion between RIO and Modbus protocols
  • Supports Modbus RTU/ASCII (serial) and Modbus TCP/IP (Ethernet)
  • User-configurable data mapping via Prosoft Configuration Builder
  • Built-in diagnostic tools and LED status indicators
  • Wide operating temperature range for harsh environments
  • Flexible mounting options (DIN rail or panel mount)
