ALSDS1232 en Rev. A
ALSPA Care Sentry TCP/IP Communications module is designed to provide Modbus over TCP connectivity to
the Sentry module parameters. The module performs as a bridge between the TCP and RS485 Modbus
protocols. The module can only be located inslot 6 of the Sentry racking system which permits access to the
RJ45 sockets through the rear of the rack.
The communication module provides connection for up to 32 Sentry modules or 128 measurement channels
through the Sentry RS485 integrated back-plane bus. Multiple racks can be connected to a single MO8701 by
daisy chaining the serial port from rack to rack.
The MO8701 communicates to each Sentry module via the Rs485 parallel bus through a unique address set up
on each module via the configuration software. The module behaves as a MODBUS TCP Slave on the network
providing access to measured parameter values, alarm levels and alarm status for each channel.
