Protocols & Drivers

Meeting Application Requirements

RTU application requirements vary greatly. A simple application may require basic data logging functionality, a more advanced application may include logic control and remote communications with field devices and a SCADA host. A complex application may include hardware and communications redundancy and multiple protocols. You may have a few data points and only need one protocol to transfer the data, or you may have a few data points and need to use multiple protocols, or more likely you have many data points and need multiple protocols!

The Brodersen suite of protocols and drivers allows you to easily create a simple data logger, protocol translator, data concentrator, slave or master device, slave and master device, or even emulate other vendors protocols by developing your own driver using the application logic tools included in WorkSuite (via serial, TCP and UDP interfaces).

Brodersen Worksuite (download free trial limited to 40 I/O)

The Code Generator Tool is an Excel-based configuration solution that uses XML templates to automatically generate IEC 60870 (101, 103, 104) implementations for new or existing WorkSuite projects, and download application code directly to the RTU32 based on user selection. It enables configuration of physical I/O and customization of templates within a flexible, open design.

Test Tool for 60870-5-104, 101, 104. Simulate SCADA and get to commissioning with a tested solution. Get password from sales. The test tool is not free. Our engineers has spend time on it, so you can free up yours.
