Triple-X | Universal Gateway
PROFINET + CAN
Standard gateway with an integrated
PROFINET + CAN protocol hardware adapter
The MBS Universal Gateways are based on one product platform and therefore offer exceptional versatility and flexibility for adapting to changing requirements - this advantage leads to particularly low overall costs: there is no need to purchase a new gateway, as new functions can simply be activated due to the adaptability. The new MBS Universal Gateways therefore have numerous functions that help our customers to reduce downtimes, shorten integration times and cut costs in the long term.

Ready
The gateway now consists of the hardware, the selected data points and the communication protocols.
The MBS Universal Gateways:
Interpreters for building automation
Gateways are important components in building automation network architectures. As intermediaries between the various devices and communication protocols, they ensure smooth data exchange.
BACnet certificate from the independent certification body WSPCert
The universal gateway of the Standard model series has been successfully certified according to the "BACnet standard" DIN EN ISO 16484-5 in BACnet protocol revision 14.
AMEV test certificate for certified BACnet devices
The universal gateway in the Standard series has been certified in accordance with DIN EN ISO 16484-5.
Fast integration
The integrated PROFINET + CAN adapter eliminates the need for the usual external bus coupler and reduces the amount of cabling required. This also enables faster connection to serial or network-based communication protocols.
Web interface
The gateways have a new web interface for configuration and analysis. This considerably simplifies the configuration of the devices and therefore enables faster commissioning. In addition, the web interface offers the possibility to use the various upgrade options of the MBS gateways, for example the activation of up to 2,500 data points.
Real-time clock and memory card
The MBS Universal Gateways have a real-time clock and a memory card that can be used to record trend log data, for example.
Upgradeable
The PROFINET + CAN gateway is available with 25, 200, 500, 1,000 and 2,500 data points. Activation takes place via the web interface. If a volume is not sufficient after integration, an upgrade to a larger number of data points is possible at any time (max. 2,500 data points).
ARM9 processor
The ARM9 processor offers maximum performance so that data can be processed for all central applications.
Building automation in the Internet of Things:
MBS gateways become edge devices
-
The gateways from MBS have also been equipped with a driver for MQTT (Message Queue Telemetry Transport), which offers far more than just pure data communication. This turns the gateways into genuine edge devices, giving building automation access to the network of a service provider and enabling data packets to be exchanged between different network structures.
-
It is possible to parameterize MQTT via a cloud, make settings and set data points. After installation, the gateway registers itself in the cloud via MQTT. A BACnet scan can then be started automatically or manually to address the existing devices and query which data points with which properties are present in the system. Finally, the result is transferred from the gateway to the cloud. Communication does not need to be restarted during this process. This makes work considerably easier for distributed properties, as the presence of a technician on site is no longer necessary.
-
Another feature of the new MQTT bus protocol driver is the ability to freely define the data content. Whereas there used to be very rigid specifications for sending data, the data format can now be freely selected. This has the advantage that the gateways can be used independently of the respective cloud operator because they are compatible with all providers.
This is a key prerequisite for driving forward digital transformation processes in building automation. Automated processes can make property management simpler, safer and more energy-efficient. The MBS universal gateways offer property operators the opportunity to exploit the benefits of the cloud for building automation with predictive maintenance or group-wide energy management, for example.
The Sparkplug driver
-
Since the devices have been equipped with an MQTT driver (Message Queue Telemetry Transport), they are already fit for use in cloud communication. The Sparkplug driver is based on this open source communication protocol and focuses on the Internet of Things and ensuring interoperability.
-
Sparkplug uses the freedom that MQTT offers building automation and supplements it with the necessary definitions for the direct use of the network protocol. This includes, for example, how devices log into the network and what data they make available. At the same time, Sparkplug defines and uses an economical binary data format, which means that less bandwidth is consumed and data transmission is faster. In addition, communication is managed via a central instance, the primary SCADA/IIoT host.
