Why Choose the Lovato ADXTRTU Modbus RTU Card for ADXT?
The Lovato ADXTRTU is an optional RS485 communication card with Modbus RTU protocol designed specifically for Lovato ADXT series soft starters. It adds industrial serial-network connectivity to compatible ADXT soft starters, enabling integration with PLCs, supervisory systems and other Modbus RTU-compatible automation equipment.
Installed directly into the ADXT expansion port, the ADXTRTU provides a convenient communications interface without requiring a separate external gateway. Through Modbus RTU communication, compatible control and monitoring systems can exchange operating information and commands with the ADXT soft starter, making the card particularly useful for networked motor-control installations.
The communication card also incorporates a DB9 connection for the optional Lovato ADXTC01 remote keypad. This allows the ADXT installation to combine Modbus RTU network communication with a remotely mounted operator keypad where local panel access is required.
