The Eaton IQMESIIN1 is a high‑performance protocol converter designed specifically for the IQ series of power meters and energy monitors. It acts as a bridge between devices communicating via Modbus RTU (RS‑485) and an Ethernet network using Modbus TCP/IP. This allows facility managers and automation engineers to aggregate data from multiple metering points into a single IP address, simplifying integration with building management systems (BMS), SCADA, and energy dashboards.

The IQMESIIN1 features an intuitive web interface that allows users to configure communication parameters, view connection status, and monitor traffic. It also supports firmware updates via Ethernet. LED indicators on the front panel provide instant visual feedback on power, Ethernet link, and serial activity. The module can store a local register map to optimize polling and reduce network traffic.
Centralized energy monitoring in commercial buildings
Integration of IQ meters into industrial control systems
Data concentrator for sub‑metering applications
Retrofit of existing Modbus meters with Ethernet connectivity
Remote monitoring of power quality parameters
By using the IQMESIIN1, users can extend the life of existing RS‑485 metering installations while gaining the benefits of modern Ethernet connectivity. The isolated design ensures reliable operation in electrically noisy environments, and the compact form factor fits easily into crowded panels. With support for standard Modbus protocols, it is compatible with a wide range of third‑party software and hardware.
The Eaton IQMESIIN1 is an essential tool for any facility seeking to improve energy efficiency through detailed, real‑time power monitoring.
