Zusammenfassung:Methods and systems for integrating communication devices into an industrial wireless system. A communications interface can be enabled on a field device access point from a user interface associated with a wireless device manager. The field device access point is configured to enable registers to read from different slave devices at different speeds and different data types. A proxy object can be implemented, which communicates with RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) devices and a cache can be implemented to store read data from different RTU slave. The read data is then periodically published to the wireless device manager through a wireless interface, thereby permitting the RTU devices or TCP devices to connect to the industrial wireless network using the field device access point.
