Ready-to-Run Industrial Embedded Computer

Moxa offers rugged, industrial embedded computers with wide operating temperatures that can serve as IEC 61850 protocol gateways. The thinkcore DA-662 can help build the IEC 61850 gateway platform.

Meets the requirements of substation protocol gateway

Power automation requires a complicated and sophisticated architecture that forces system integrators and software programmers to develop optimal solutions that can withstand tough conditions. The solutions require many powerful controllers that offer multiple serial ports for legacy device connection and that can perform well for front-end tasks, such as data acquisition, numerical computing, data distribution, and remote device monitoring and management. System network redundancy is essential to ensure the continuous system operation of power automation applications. In addition, extreme temperature changes must be conquered to maintain system stability.
Special-purpose software is preferred for combining communication protocols such as Modbus and IEC 61850 with open communication standards in substation automation. Front-end communication computers with EMC Level 4 certification can be used to establish a reliable solution for substation automation. In addition, various industrial-grade form factors and wireless solutions are required to maximize installation flexibility and simplicity for any complex situation.

Interoperability, reliability, and versatility

Moxa’s embedded computers have a fanless cooling design and operate in a wide temperature range, coupled with industrial rugged features to satisfy the harsh requirements of the power utility market. With up to 16 serial ports, Moxa’s embedded computers can connect many remote devices to perform front-end tasks extremely efficiently. With their multi-LAN design, Moxa’s products guarantee non-stop data communication and maximum uptime.
Moxa’s embedded computers can be managed easily with the Moxa Protocol Converter (MPC) software tool, which can handle complicated protocol communications, significantly reducing the cost and time required for software development and system integration. In addition, Moxa’s embedded computers support different mounting options and wireless connection to make installation easy in any industrial environment. The thinkcore DA-662 can help establish the IEC 61850 gateway platform that standardizes all aspects of communication protocols in substations.
