The inRAx Modbus Master/Slave Communication Module allows Rockwell Automation PLC processors to interface easily with other Modbus protocol compatible devices. Compatible devices include not only Modicon PLCs (which all support the Modbus protocol) but also a wide assortment of end devices. The module acts as an input/output module between the Modbus network and the Rockwell Automation backplane. The data transfer from the processor is asynchronous from the actions on the Modbus network.

- The inRAx Modbus Master/Slave Communication Module is designed to allow PLC processors to interface easily with Modbus protocol compatible devices and hosts
- The inRAx module acts as an input/output module between the Modbus network and the Rockwell Automation backplane. The data transfer from the PLC processor is asynchronous from the actions on the Modbus network
- Many host SCADA packages support the Modbus protocol, while devices commonly supporting the protocol include several PLCs, as well as many other third party devices in the marketplace. (For a partial list of devices that speak Modbus, please visit the ProSoft Tested section of the ProSoft Technology web site)
