DAUDIN GFGW-RM01N HMI Modbus TCP Connection

Product Information

The product is a remote I/O module configuration list that
includes various components:

Part No.	Specification
GFGW-RM01N	Modbus TCP-to-Modbus RTU/ASCII, 4 Ports
GFMS-RM01S	Master Modbus RTU, 1 Port
GFDI-RM01N	Digital Input 16 Channel
GFDO-RM01N	Digital Output 16 Channel / 0.5A
GFPS-0202	Power 24V / 48W
GFPS-0303	Power 5V / 20W

The gateway is used externally to connect with Beijer HMI’s
communication port (Modbus TCP). The main controller is responsible
for managing and dynamically configuring I/O parameters. The power
module is a standard component that can be chosen based on user
preference.

Product Usage Instructions

To connect to Beijer HMI, follow these steps:

1. Ensure that the module is powered and connected to the gateway module using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch the i-Designer software.
3. Select “M Series Module Configuration”.
4. Click on the “Setting Module” icon.
5. Enter the “Setting Module” page for M-series.
6. Select the mode type based on the connected module.
7. Click on “Connect”.
8. Configure the Gateway Module IP Settings (Note: The IP address must be in the same domain as the controller equipment).
9. Set Group 1 as Slave and set the gateway to use the first set of RS485 ports to connect to the main controller (GFMS-RM01N).
