Akytec MultiColour SMI2-M Modbus RS-485 Indicator (24x48mm)
The SMI2-M is a universal display unit for monitoring industrial processes. It has an RS-485 interface and the measured values can be displayed up to four digits. Imagine streamlining multiple devices without the usual technical problems.
Main features of SMI2-M
- Three-color seven-segment indicator (green\red\yellow)
- RS-485 interface with galvanic isolation from the power supply.
- Supports Modbus RTU/ASCII protocols in Master/Slave/Spy mode.
- Programming via MicroUSB.
- Displaying values like INT, DINT, WORD, DWORD, REAL, STRING, Portrait, Time.
- Standardised design and fits into a standard 22.5 mm borehole for signal lamps
Functionality of SMI2-M:
- Configurable byte/register order for all operating modes.
- Displaying values like INT, DINT, WORD, DWORD, REAL, STRING, Portrait (bit mask of indicator segments), Time (value in the “xx:yy” format).
- Customizable number of leading zeros and decimal places
- Supports blinking and creeping modes.
- Possibility of linear scaling of the obtained value.
- Control of color, blinking, and other parameters via Modbus registers.
- There is a built-in logic mode for changing the color and a blinking mode in case of values outside the specified range.
- LED brightness control.
- Supports Modbus RTU/ASCII protocols in Master/Slave/Spy modes
Master - The indicator acts as a master device, polling another device and displaying the value of one of its parameters. This allows displaying data from a device that can only operate in slave mode, such as TRM. The indicator's color changes and blinking are controlled by the indicator's built-in logic, as set by the user.
Slave - The indicator displays a value received from the master device (e.g., PLC or PR). The indicator's color changes and blinking can occur either by command from the master device (according to its program), or by the SMI2-М's built-in logic. Multiple indicators can be connected to one RS-485 bus.
Spy-mode - Allows the indicator to connect to the bus, where a master device is already present, and "listen in" on the traffic, waiting for requests or responses with specified parameters (device address, function code, register address). This enables the device to be used in existing systems where reconfiguration of the equipment is not possible. Another use case for this mode is synchronous data updating on multiple indicators using a broadcast from the master device to address 0. Each indicator is assigned an individual register number in the listened request, allowing each device to extract its data from the broadcast request.
