Zlinx Wireless I/O
Peer-to-Peer and Modbus I/O
Modular, Customizable Wire Replacement
128 / 256 Bit AES Encryption
Software Selectable RF Transmit Power
Software Selectable Over-the-air Data Rate
Modbus ASCII /RTU Compatible
Wide Operating Temperature
Active Repeater Functionality
10 to 40 VDC & 24 VAC Input Power
Zlinx™ Wireless Modbus I/O - flexible enough to fit your
applications. These plug-n-play units from B&B Electronics
combine traditional Modbus RTU remote analog and discrete I/O
with built-in wireless connectivity. Wireless RTU serves as
Modbus slave RTU in radio-based SCADA systems, or as a
peer-to-peer communication platform.
Three Ranges Available - Short, Medium, Long range.
Active Repeaters - With built-in repeater functionality on -MR
and 900 MHz -LR models, you can ensure vital signals get
through.
Modular - Just snap on your I/O and you're ready to go.
Wide Temperature - Meets most indoor or outdoor applications.
Rugged circuitry prevents signal degradation.
128 / 256 Bit AES Encryption – Secures your data.
Selectable RF Transmit Power – Allows you to optimize the
transmitter power for your application.
Selectable Over-the-air Data Rate – Allows you to decrease the
OTA Data Rate on –LR and –LR-AU versions, effectively
increasing the radio transmitter’s range.
Exception Reporting – In Modbus mode, allows the reporting of
possible problems with connected devices.
Fail Safe – Allows you to set your I/O to a safe state in the event
of a communications failure.
Calibration – Calculates correction factors to make I/O values
better match your sensor.
Communications Failure Alarm – Allows the first DO to be
configured as a COM failure alarm indicator.
Invert Output – You can invert the logic of all DO’s in peer-topeer mode.
Monitor – You can use the Zlinx™ Manager Software to monitor
your I/O.
Wire Replacement (Peer-to-Peer Mode)
Replicate any analog or digital signal from a remote location-
Wirelessly! Use a pair of Zlinx™ Wireless I/O modules to read
sensor inputs or control actuators in hard-top-reach locations.
Inputs and outputs of the paired Zlinx radios will mirror each
other, making it easy to add wireless I/O to any application.
Modbus Peer-to-peer or Peer to Multi-peer
Seamlessly add wireless I/O to any Modbus application.
Modbus is the most widely supported I/O protocol worldwide.
With Zlinx Wireless I/O you can now bring wireless remote I/O
into any Modbus system. Simply connect a Zlinx modem to and
RS-232 or RS-485 port of the Modbus master and it can now
poll up to 150 wireless I/O nodes – each node can be
