Note:

Although this gateway is still available, other SIXNET DCS controllers are recommended for new designs where programmability is required. The ST-GT-1210 I/O Controller functionally replaces the ST-GT-232-xxP programmable gateway in applications requiring one RS232 port. For even higher performance or to satisfy larger memory or COM port requirements, use a SixTRAK IPm.

Select a ST-GT-232-xxP when…

…the connection to the primary host (supervisory computer or distributed control system) will be an RS232 link.

Key Features

¢	32-bit CPU for real-time power and floating point math
¢	The Main port is optically isolated from the gateway circuitry for high immunity to ground loops and other types of noise. It should be used as the primary link to your supervisory host.
¢	Both the Main port and the Plant Floor port may be used to update I/O status. Either port can be set to communicate using Modbus protocol.
¢	Simultaneous communications from each port are possible. (Use a laptop PC for on-the-fly diagnostics.)
¢	Every SixTRAK station requires a gateway to perform I/O updating, communicate with the outside world and power the ST-Bus. There can be only one gateway in each station.
¢	Control tasks can be divided between a computer and a programmable gateway to best suit your application. I/O registers may be used to link the two programs together.
¢	1 megabyte of flash (permanent) memory ensures program expandability.
¢	256K, 1 MB, or 2 MB of battery backed memory for datalogging applications.
