Need a bidirectional unit that will allow a modbus input but has a redundant (ie: dual) modbus/tcp ethernet output.
Im using sixnet ethertrak et-gt-st-3 which has a serial port and two ethernet ports. The serial port reads modbus RTU, then sends modbus TCP through ethernet port to the pks experion software where this application is running a modbus controller. Everything works fine. But the problem is when i lose serial communication, i cant find a way to be aware of that. What i mean is that the sixnet ethertrak keeps sending the last values he has in storage. So in the pks experion everything seems to work fine (the values are just frozen). There must be a way that the sixnet ethertrak tells that serial communication is loss
pd: I've already tried the sixnet watchdog, but i need something that tells that the serial channel is down.
Thanks
