Remote monitoring
The Netbiter Remote Management solution from HMS Industrial Networks now allows automation devices using EtherNet/IP to be monitored and controlled via the web.
By connecting a Netbiter EasyConnect
300-series gateway, users of EtherNet/IP-based equipment can do maintenance from any location.
The Netbiter Remote Management solution has previously offered connectivity to Modbus devices, but as of
November, HMS can also offer direct, onboard compatibility with EtherNet/IP. Via the LAN port on the
Netbiter Gateway, users can connect via UCMM (UnConnected Message Manager) which is an acyclic
messaging channel separate from the control loop messaging.
With Netbiter, users can: configure EtherNet/IP devices remotely using their regular configuration software (RSLogix for
example); log trends and monitor performance over time; and get alarm or event notifications whenever critical thresholds are reached.
