Joe, I don't know about this particular device, but your options include:
Using the 19.2K serial port:
Modicon Device Integrator
This device assumes true Modicon emulation. I have a
checklist that I use to determine if it will work with devices that emulate
a Modicon PLC. Here's the checklist, but be aware that it may not be
perfect.
Modicon Foreign Device Integrator.
This device is much more flexible in dealing with "Modicon"
emulating devices that are not quite true emulations.
Using the Ethernet port
If the Ethernet port supports Modbus over Ethernet, we have a
version of the AW70-Integrator that may be able talk to it. Again, you need
to qualify the device.
Hope this helps.
