Modbus/TCP ⇔ Modbus RTU/ASCII Converter

"Comm Assist-Mod" is a protocol converter that connects RS-232C devices or RS-485 devices to Ethernet. It allows you to select the communication method from multiple communication modes according to the connected devices. In Modbus/TCP mode, by connecting RS-485 devices that support Modbus RTU/ASCII transmission methods, it sends (requests) Modbus/TCP data from a PC or PLC on Ethernet to RS-485 Modbus RTU/ASCII devices as Modbus RTU/ASCII data, and conversely, it sends (responds) Modbus RTU/ASCII data from RS-485 Modbus RTU/ASCII devices to a PC or PLC on Ethernet as Modbus/TCP data. Additionally, it has RS-232C/Ethernet converter and RS-485/Ethernet converter functions.

Acquisition of power consumption data using the IPv6-based "B route" communication method equipped in high-pressure smart meters.

The "LXG-600" is an EMS controller for high-voltage smart meters. It has the capability to acquire power consumption data using the IPv6-based "B route" information communication method equipped in high-voltage smart meters. It converts the acquired data in ECHONET Lite format to the cloud server's receiving protocol/data format and has the functionality to regularly transmit this data via the LTE wireless communication carrier network. The transmission method to the cloud server can also be customized according to the customer's needs. Main Features: ■ EMS controller compatible with high-voltage smart power meters (B route) ■ Compliant with ECHONET Lite standard and ECHONET Lite AIF standard ■ Data transmission of various measurement values from high-voltage smart power meters via LTE

Recently, we held technical training sessions for the MilkoScan FT3 at five locations nationwide. In this training, we provided a wide range of useful information for operating the equipment, including explanations of the principles and structure of the device, how to create measurement products, daily maintenance, and how to respond to issues when they arise. Additionally, this year we introduced new methods for utilizing digital services (such as FossCalibrator and IQX) and also prepared hands-on sessions where participants could experience operating the equipment using a PC. Thank you to everyone who participated. Please feel free to contact us with any questions after the training. ------- At Foss Japan, in addition to training sessions and workshops to ensure you can use our equipment with confidence, we hold many events throughout the year. In seminars and open houses tailored to specific industries and analytical techniques, we showcase Foss's latest analytical solutions. -------

[Lecturers] EY Strategy and Consulting Co., Ltd. Infrastructure Advisory Partner Kenichiro Fukuda Strategy Partner Ken Fujiyama Infrastructure Advisory Director Takashi Matsumura [Key Lecture Content] The water supply and sewage business is facing structural challenges such as facility aging, a shortage of workforce, and a decrease in revenue due to population decline. The government is promoting the introduction of Water PPPs, regional consolidation, and the digital transformation of water supply and sewage systems, marking a significant turning point in the way these businesses are operated. This change is expanding business opportunities for private companies in various areas, including operation and maintenance, pipeline renewal, digital technology, and the utilization of smart meters and data. Additionally, as a means of expanding business domains and enhancing competitiveness, there has been an increase in capital and operational partnerships and M&A between companies, leading to industry restructuring. In this seminar, based on the latest trends in policy and the market, we will introduce business strategies for private companies to enter and expand in the water supply and sewage market, including the use of M&A and capital operational partnerships, drawing on achievements from both public and private support.
