Modbus
Modbus is a widely used communication protocol for connecting industrial and building equipment, such as meters and sensors, to monitoring systems.
Definition
Modbus is an older but still widely used communication protocol common in industrial and building automation equipment, allowing meters, sensors, and controllers to exchange data with monitoring or control systems.
Why It Matters
Modbus remains common in existing building infrastructure, making support for it important for integrating with legacy meters and equipment rather than requiring hardware replacement.
How ecolyptus Helps
ecolyptus can integrate with Modbus-compatible meters and sensors via appropriate gateway hardware.
