Ethernet and Protocol Conversion

EGX150 provides serial-to-Ethernet communication for Modbus RTU, Modbus ASCII, JBUS and PowerLogic (SY/MAX) devices. Ethernet communication supports Modbus TCP/IP at 10/100 Mbit/s, with daisy-chain operation specified for the Ethernet Modbus TCP/IP interface. RS232 and RS485 interfaces support master and slave configurations according to the selected serial protocol.

The gateway can receive operating power from a 19.2-26.4 VDC external source or through IEEE 802.3af PoE. The two Ethernet ports provide separate Ethernet activity indication, while dedicated LEDs indicate module and network communication status.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What serial interfaces are available on the EGX150?

A: The EGX150 provides RJ45 RS232 and RJ45 RS485 interfaces for Modbus RTU, Modbus ASCII, JBUS and PowerLogic (SY/MAX) serial communication.

Q: What power sources can the EGX150 use?

A: The gateway accepts an external 19.2-26.4 VDC supply or IEEE 802.3af PoE. PoE operation is specified at 15 W maximum.

Q: Can the EGX150 be mounted on a DIN rail?

A: Yes. The device uses clip-on mounting on a 35 mm DIN rail.

Field Installation Guidelines

Mount the EGX150 on a 35 mm DIN rail inside an enclosure with adequate clearance for the RJ45 communication connectors and power terminals.

Connect the external supply to the designated power terminal and observe the specified 19.2-26.4 VDC input range. If PoE is used, connect the Ethernet interface to a compatible IEEE 802.3af power source.

Route RS232 and RS485 communication wiring separately from high-voltage power and high-current switching conductors where practical. Maintain the intended RS485 wiring topology and apply the required signal reference and shield termination practices for the installation environment.

Verify Ethernet link activity, module status, network status, and serial communication LEDs after energization. Confirm the selected serial protocol, baud rate, parity, and master/slave configuration before placing the gateway into service.

EGX150 is discontinued and reached its stated end-of-service date on December 31, 2024. Schneider Electric identifies PAS600 and PAS600L as recommended replacement products; application and interface requirements should be checked before substitution.
