The WH series supports various communication protocols and can be used as a gateway to connect lower-level control systems to higher-level information systems without programming.
Connection with various higher-level systems
The WH series supports OPC UA client/server, MQTT and SQL, etc., and can be connected to higher-level systems such as databases, file servers and various cloud services without programming. The WH series can be used as a gateway to existing equipment for data communication with high security using OPC UA*1 and data analysis using various cloud services.
Programming-free connection to PLCs of different companies
Able to handle communications protocols used by various PLCs. Naturally, the gateway can be implemented when you install new equipment, but it can also be used to connect existing equipment. By simply replacing the display on newly installed equipment and, even, legacy equipment you can remotely visualize the status of field devices.
Simultaneous connection to different communication protocols
The advanced model can connect using a total of 8 different communication protocols (AWHA1C050: Up to 4 different communication protocols), and the standard model can connect using as many as 4 different protocols.
Data can be transferred between multiple PLC models without programming.
