The System 450 control module with Modbus communications is an RS485, RTU compliant Modbus subordinate device. You can use it to connect your System 450 control system to Modbus networks and communicate over them.

The System 450 Modbus communication control module also enables your entire control system to respond to data requests and commands from a Modbus master device on the Modbus network.
