PRTG is a customizable platform for monitoring and controlling Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP connections. To do this, PRTG provides custom RTU sensors and TCP sensors. Sensors are virtual monitoring devices that can monitor all types of measured values for connections that use Modbus. PRTG allows administrators to contextualize and analyze data from physical devices using Modbus through a user-friendly interface. Watch a video about how the custom Modbus TCP sensor works here.
Note: To see how Modbus stacks up against alternative network protocols – like BACnet, LonWorks, and M-Bus – read the Paessler blog post “Protocols, gateways and data transmission methods for building state monitoring”.Read more
