A Sixnet product story
Edited by the Laboratorytalk editorial team Jan 9, 2003

The Sixtrak I/O Controller (model ST-GT-1210) is designed as an affordable "entry level" Controller/Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) or upgrade for legacy Sixtrak I/O Gateways.

The Sixtrak I/O Controller (model ST-GT-1210) is designed as an affordable "entry level" Controller/Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) or upgrade for legacy Sixtrak I/O Gateways.

This compact unit rounds out Sixnet's line of industrial open control products, which include the Linux open-source Sixtrak IPm DCS Controller and Versatrak IPm Remote Terminal Unit (RTU).

The ST-GT-1210 includes 10/100 Ethernet, RS232, RS485 and ST-BUS I/O ports.

It can interface to thousands of I/O with any of Sixnet's three I/O product lines (Sixtrak Local I/O, Ethertrak Ethernet I/O, and Remotetrak RS485 I/O), run Isagraf IEC 61131-3 programs, perform datalogging, and interface to 3rd party Modbus devices, all in real-time.

The ST-GT-1210 provides a reliable way to control or monitor Ethernet, RS485, or local I/O.

It is perfectly suited for most control and data acquisition applications where some PLC-style programming is required.

The ST-GT-1210 also shares the same powerful CPU as Sixnet's IPm line of Linux based controllers and RTUs, which means Isagraf control programs and other operations will run at "lightning" speeds.

Sixtrak I/O Controller features include: - Process control, SCADA, and RTU functionality - Datalogging and I/O transfers - Isagraf IEC 61131 programming with all five languages supported - Ethernet, RS485, RS232 ports - Flexible Communications: Supports Open Modbus/TCP, ASCII, and RTU - Ethernet, telephone and wireless link enabled - Certified to perform: UL, CSA, CE, DNV, and Zone 2 rated - Din rail or direct panel mounting - -40 to +70 degree Celsius operating range.
