Description

The TCW242 is an industrial-grade Internet of Things (IoT) module designed for advanced monitoring and control in industrial applications. Featuring Ethernet connectivity and data logging, it offers flexible input options including 4 digital inputs, 4 analogue inputs (configurable for 0-20mA or 0-10V), and an RS-485 interface for connecting up to 24 Modbus RTU sensors. The device also includes 4 built-in relays and supports up to 24 Modbus RTU controlled relays, enabling comprehensive control capabilities.

Beyond its extensive monitoring, the TCW242 provides robust alarm functionality, allowing for 24 independent alarms with customisable states, limits, and hysteresis, offering visual indication on the monitoring page. It supports various M2M communication protocols such as SNMP, HTTP API, Modbus TCP/IP, and MQTT, ensuring seamless integration with other industrial systems for diverse data analysis and control needs. Overall, the TCW242 is a powerful and versatile solution for industrial IoT applications.
