Netbiter Remote Access Mode

 

Remote PLC programming, configuration, debugging and software upgrades

Get immediate access to field equipment in order to minimize equipment downtime and reduce on-site maintenance and travel costs.

Included feature with a Netbiter EC300-series gateway

Netbiter Remote Access Mode opens up a secure tunnel to a PLC or machine. This enables configuration, programming or debugging of almost any industrial device from any location. You can use your regular PLC configuration software just as you would if you were on site.

Remote Access is an included feature with the EC310 and EC350 communication gateways. It allows one user to connect to one machine. It supports data limits up to 1GB per month and is set up through the Netbiter Argos.

VIDEO: What is Netbiter Remote Access?

How it works

Netbiter Remote Access provides a remote connection through Netbiter Argos to the serial and Ethernet ports on a Netbiter EC300 series gateway. This makes it possible to use PC-based software applications (such as RSLogix or TIA Portal) to program, configure or debug just as if being on site.

To establish the remote connection, the PC-based driver Netbiter QuickConnect is installed on the PC. This creates a secure tunnel through Netbiter Argos to the Netbiter gateway and also establishes a virtual connection to the software application on the PC.

The tunnel established between the laptop and the remote network can be used to create one or more channels for the actual connections to the remote devices.       

EC350 Remote Access
The Netbiter Remote Access solution is designed for connections that are open for a limited time only, during which the programmer performs the required tasks and then closes the connection. Permanent connections, for example between a SCADA application and equipment in the field, are not supported.
