I am planning to put up a monitoring system using CitectSCADA software and the existing ION 7300 meters in our location.
I know that I can connect the meters in daisy chain using RS485. The meters are configured to communicate using MODBUS RTU protocol.
The computer to be installed with CitectSCADA is 1 km away from the meters and it can be connected to the meters using the local area network.
What are the things do I need to make this setup work?
Can I use a modbus gateway to convert MODBUS RTU to TCP?
Do I need OPC to get the data correctly?
Help please...
