Hello guys,

It is possible to connect a M-bus device, like a meter to Ignition?  
We need to put the data from the meter in our SCADA system, and when I try to add a new device I don’t see M-bus on the protocol list.

Thank you very much!

You would need some type of protocol converter, like this one, for example.
