The demand for remote control and low cost fault messaging systems applied to automation or remote facility management has grown rapidly. Mitsubishi Electric Europe has addressed this need through telemetry solutions based on a range of powerful Industrial Modems and management software.
There are two different types of Mitsubishi Industrial Modem: Intelligent Modems (MAM) and Standard Modems (MIM). Each type has models for connection to an analog Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) or a Global System for Mobile Telecommunication (GSM).
These new Industrial Modems are designed to be flexible and easy to use offering a simple RS232, RS422 or RS485 connection to the target device. Selected models even have Mitsubishi PLC protocols built in as standard making the integration of telemetry and control simple and seamless.
