Waveshare 8-channel RS485 to Ethernet industrial serial servers work as a Modbus & MQTT gateways, RS485-to-JSON converters

Industrial Isolated 8 Ch RS485 to RJ45 Ethernet Serial Server

Waveshare has launched the 8-Channel RS485 TO ETH (B) and 8-Channel RS485 TO POE ETH (B) industrial Ethernet serial servers designed for bi-directional transparent data transmission between RS485 and Ethernet networks. The only difference is PoE support, one has it, the other doesn’t, recognizable by their names. It features eight RS485 channels that operate independently, and supports two Ethernet ports (with an optional PoE version compliant with IEEE 802.3af). Key features include working as a serial server, Modbus gateway, MQTT gateway, and RS-485 to JSON converter. It also supports protocols like TCP, UDP, HTTP, DHCP, DNS, and more. It works in the industrial temperature range (-40°C to 85°C), offers power and signal isolation, 2kV surge protection, and comes housed in a durable aluminum alloy enclosure. Additionally, it supports wall-mount or rail-mount installation, multiple power supply methods (DC 7–36V via screw terminal or PoE), and web browser/device library configuration. These features make […]

Arduino cloud editor gets Claude-powered AI assistant trained on Arduino docs and libraries

Arduino Cloud editor with the new Arduino AI Assistant

Arduino recently announced that their Cloud Editor now includes an AI assistant based on Anthropic’s Claude large language model (LLM). The AI assistant is designed to make the coding experience smoother by providing intelligent, context-aware support directly within the Cloud Editor. This tool understands your specific board, libraries, and project setup, and generates code and fixes bugs. It also explains functions without requiring users to leave the development environment. Additionally, it reduces repetitive tasks by creating reliable boilerplate code and accelerates development with natural language prompt-based sketch generation, instant debugging, and detailed code explanations.  These features make this tool useful for hobbyists, educators, and developers seeking to boost productivity and creativity in embedded projects. – Main features of Arduino’s AI assistant Platform – Integrated into Arduino Cloud Editor (app.arduino.cc) Compatibility – Exclusive to Arduino Cloud Editor (not available in the desktop IDE) AI Model – Powered by Anthropic Claude LLM […]
