DXMR90 Controller

The DXMR90 is a central component of Banner’s Snap Signal product portfolio. This industrial controller houses a processor that receives signals from sensors and other connected devices, through four dedicated Modbus ports. The DXMR90 combines all of these signals into one unified stream of insightful device data, which can be exported out through industrial Ethernet protocols.

IIoT Enabling Industrial Controller

  • Configurable industrial controller works with a wide range of Serial devices
  • Internal logic controller with simple action rules for programming, logging, and data manipulation
  • Compact housing saves space and weight compared to traditional block
    style form factors
  • Rugged IP67/IP68 housing provides simplified installation by eliminating
    the need for a control cabinet
  • Four dedicated master ports for concurrent communication to four
    independent networks for faster response times

Technical Specifications

Banner’s DXMR90 Series Controller consolidates data from multiple connections to provide local data processing as well as accessibility for host systems as a platform for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The DXMR90 contains individual Modbus Clients allowing for concurrent communication to up to five independent serial networks. Data is collected into the controller to facilitate edge processing, convert protocols to Industrial Ethernet, and send information where you need it.

  • Converts Modbus RTU to Modbus TCP/IP, EtherNet/IP, or Profinet
  • Internal logic driven by action rules for easy programming, or MicroPython and ScriptBasic for developing more complex solutions
  • RS-485 and Ethernet communications ports
  • Compact housing saves space and weight compared to traditional “block-style” form factors, eliminating the need for a control cabinet
  • Email alerts can be set up directly from the DXMR90
  • Equipped with IP65, IP67, and IP68 rated housing for use in challenging environments
  • User programmable LEDs for local status indication
  • Connects to databases (including Banner’s Cloud Data Services) over Ethernet or through a cellular enabled DXM Controller
  • Ideal forIIoT  data analytics, condition monitoring, predictive maintenance, OEE analysis, diagnostics, and troubleshooting

DXMR90 Capabilities

Real-Time Condition Monitoring—of Everything

The DXMR90 harnesses the power of the Industrial Internet of Things by combining Modbus signals into 24/7 condition monitoring data from machines and automated processes. If the captured data identifies activity that falls outside of user-customizable performance thresholds, operators receive immediate notifications. Those specific issues can then be addressed before they result in critical part failures or other problems that could halt or interrupt production.

Versatile Connection Options

The DXMR90 features four female M12 ports, which can receive native Modbus signals and an ever-expanding variety of legacy electronic signal types converted to Modbus using other Snap Signal products. These ports can also connect to Banner radios to receive signals wirelessly—even at distances of up to six miles. Each port can be configured as its own Modbus Client, with selectable baud rate and parity settings, for a series of connected device signals. The DXMR90 also features an M12 D-coded Ethernet connection port for communicating over Modbus TCP, Ethernet/IP, and Profinet, or for controller configuration.

Cloud Connectivity

A further application for this technology is possible with networks such as Banner’s Cloud Data Services (CDS). Cloud computing allows manufacturers to harness the greater potential of IIoT for advanced data analytics. The combined signal from the DXMR90 can be sent directly to the cloud, where data is processed in real-time and presented as useful performance metrics. Beyond providing manufacturers with the cost-savings advantage of in-house monitoring, this approach also allows for comprehensive predictive maintenance.

Banner’s Cloud Data Services provide a web-based platform for accessing, storing, protecting, and exporting critical data from industrial system devices. Users can customize how cloud data is displayed in their online applications, for personalized graphical presentations of in-depth, up-to-the-minute insight of all monitored machine parameters. The cloud can also send email notifications of any unexpected deviations from established baselines. Alternatively, the DXMR90 can be connected to a DXM1200 Wireless Controller to send data to CDS or other cloud servers.

Improve Productivity with Actionable Data

Snap Signal is an easily deployable, complete portfolio of modular IIoT hardware and software that delivers actionable machine data from across your factory. More than just another flavor of IIoT, Snap Signal is an overlay network that can capture data signals from virtually any source. It seamlessly converts these sources to a single industry-standard protocol, then distributes the data for quick and easy consumption. Snap Signal offers you the flexibility to monitor key equipment within one area or monitor your whole facility.
