Productivity3000 Serial Comm Module P3-SCM from AutomationDirect

Welcome to Kickstart where you get to see new products here at AutomationDirect. Today I am going to show you our new serial communications module for our Productivity 3000 controller, part number P3-SCM. This new SCM serial communication module for the Productivity3000 controller family gives our customers the option to add more serial ports allowing the connection of many peripherals, such as bar code scanners, drives, weight scales, printers, HMI displays and most any Modbus or ASCII device, into one control system. The new p3-SCM four-port serial communication module contains three RS-232 (RJ12) half or full duplex ports and one port selectable between RS-232 (RJ12) and RS-485 (four-wire terminal block). All ports support Modbus RTU Master/Slave, ASCII In/Out, and custom communication protocols up to 38.4K baud rate. In addition to RS-232, the module's first port provides 5V, 210mA power for the C-more Micro monochrome HMI. The module also features a 16-LED status display to show communication status for each port. There are NO base or slot limits on this SCM module, so you can fill an eleven slot base with P3-SCM modules. Don't forget; if your purchase one of these modules, please make sure to update your software and firmware to the latest versions so you can take advantage of all of the new features included.
