Modbus to OPC UA Gateway

Sorun

The MES and historian expect OPC UA, but meters, drives and small controllers only offer Modbus registers without names, units or scaling.

Çözüme genel bakış

MILESGO gateways collect data from electricity meters, variable frequency drives (VFD), PLCs, legacy RS-232 / RS-485 instruments over Modbus RTU / Modbus TCP, and deliver it to MES, a historian / database (MySQL, SQL Server, InfluxDB), SCADA as OPC UA. Field equipment keeps its own protocol and control logic; integration is done by configuration and point mapping, not custom code.

Typical scope

electricity meters
variable frequency drives (VFD)
PLCs
legacy RS-232 / RS-485 instruments

Protocol path

Modbus RTU / Modbus TCP → OPC UA

Implementation checklist for the project manager

Collect register maps and protocol documents from every equipment vendor early; a missing map is the most common delay.
Devices on one serial channel must share protocol and communication parameters; group them per channel at design time.
RS-485: shielded twisted pair, daisy-chain topology, termination at both ends, up to 32 nodes per segment without a repeater.
Size gateways by point count (256 / 512 / 1024 / 2048 tags per model) and by the number of RS-485 channels, leaving about 20% spare.
Keep OT networks segregated and use VPN for remote access instead of opening ports to the internet.
Build and simulate the configuration off site (FAT) before installation to shorten time on site.

Project deliverables

Signed point table and protocol mapping
Gateway configuration files and backups
IP address plan and network drawing
FAT and SAT test records
As-built documentation and operator training

Sistem mimarisi

Field layer: electricity meters, variable frequency drives (VFD), PLCs, legacy RS-232 / RS-485 instruments, connected over Modbus RTU / Modbus TCP. Edge and integration layer: MILESGO protocol gateways and edge controllers, mounted on DIN rail in existing panels, polling each device, time-stamping values and buffering them locally. Upper layer: MES, a historian / database (MySQL, SQL Server, InfluxDB), SCADA, which receives the data as OPC UA. Remote access for maintenance runs over VPN rather than open internet ports.

Teslimat adımları

1
Site survey and point list
Inventory devices, protocols, register maps, panel space, power and network paths.
2
Design and point table sign-off
Map every point to the target protocol and system; agree it with the client and the upper-system contractor.
3
Configuration and FAT
Build the gateway configuration off site, simulate it and test against the signed point table.
4
Installation and wiring
Mount gateways on DIN rail, wire RS-485 / I/O / Ethernet, apply the IP plan.
5
SAT and alarm tests
Verify values against local readings, test every alarm and command end to end.
6
Handover and support
Hand over configuration backups, point table and as-built documents; train operators.
