Babel Buster BB2-7010-02 (formerly Babel Buster IP/XM-SNMP) contains four different clients and four different servers. The BB2-7010-02 includes BACnet/IP client and server, Modbus TCP client and server (master and slave), SNMP client and server (agent), and Modbus RTU master and slave.
The BACnet IP client allows BACnet IP devices to be accessible from Modbus or SNMP. You configure the device instance, object type and instance, and poll interval for reading or writing BACnet objects. The object data is stored in the server for subsequent retrieval by any supported remote client.
The SNMP client allows SNMP devices to be accessible from BACnet IP or Modbus. You configure the SNMP agent's IP address, the OID of the MIB variable you wish to poll, and set a polling interval. The object data is stored in the BB2-7010 server for subsequent retrieval by any supported remote client.
A large number of BACnet objects gives you flexibility in mapping Modbus registers to any combination of BACnet objects. Packed Modbus registers may be parsed to multiple BACnet objects when reading. Multiple BACnet objects may be packed into a single Modbus register when writing. All standard Modbus register types are supported.

Value objects will poll their assigned Modbus register at the interval you specify. The content of the Modbus register will be given as the Present Value of the BACnet object when read. The Modbus register is written each time the BACnet Value object is written. The Value object corresponds well with the Modbus Holding register.
Input objects will poll their assigned Modbus register at the interval you specify, and provide the Modbus data as the Present Value when read. Commandable Output objects are used to write Modbus registers, and will update the Modbus device each time BACnet is updated.
The same polling schemes that apply to Modbus also apply to remote BACnet IP slaves polled by the BB2-7010's BACnet IP client, and to remote SNMP agents polled by the BB2-7010's SNMP client.

A demo copy of the embedded web site contained within the SNMP version of Babel Buster BB2-7010 is found at the link above. Visit this link for object property summary and hardware guide, in addition to the demo copy of device configuration pages.
All configuration is done via the web pages, eliminating the need for special configuration properties for each object.

BACnet IP network or vice versa
• Connect SNMP devices to a
BACnet IP network or vice versa
• Includes BBMD support

| Can I use the BB2-7010-02 to query SNMP devices from Modbus?
Yes. Although featured as a BACnet IP gateway, it can be used as an SNMP to Modbus gateway. You can query SNMP devices using SNMP Get, and make that data readable as Modbus registers. Configuration is all done via the internal web server, therefore this gateway can be used without any BACnet network present.

| SNMP Note: If your MIB data is type Integer, you should have no trouble transferring data. Octet strings that can be parsed as a numeric ASCII string have a good chance of transferring. Other types, including opaque floating point types, will require testing to confirm compatibility. |
Note to IP/XM Users: The BB2-7010 is functionally identical, and your configuration files will work as is. Other than cosmetic enhancements, the changes are in hardware with additional indicators and a hardened EIA-485 port that will withstand accidental cross wiring between data and 24V power.
