Prosoft Modbus TCP/IP Client/Server Enhanced Communication Module MVI56E-MNET

The MVI56E Modbus TCP/IP Client/Server Enhanced Communication Module allows Rockwell Automation ControlLogix processors to interface easily with Modicon Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs) and a wide variety of Modbus TCP/IP-compatible instruments and devices.

MVI56E enhancements include local and remote configuration and diagnostics through the module’s Ethernet port, CIPconnect technology for bridging though Rockwell Automation ControlNet and EtherNetIP networks, and an on-board web server for access to module documentation and sample program files.

The MVI56E-MNET and MVI56E-MNETXT are functionally the same. The MVI56E-MNET is designed for standard process applications. The MVI56E-MNETXT is designed for the Logix-XT control platform, allowing it to operate in extreme environments, at higher operating temperatures, and has a conformal coating to protect it from harsh or caustic conditions.

Features and Benefits

Backward Compatibility

  • Upgrade earlier MVI56-MNET modules without changing existing ladder logic programs or module configurations
  • Enhanced features and flexibility without incurring expensive reprogramming costs

For Extreme Environments(MVI56E-MNETXT Only)

  • Conforms to the EN60079-0 and EN60079-15 standards for applications in caustic and extreme temperature environments
  • Operates in temperature extremes from -25° to 70° C (-13° to 158° F)
  • Conformal coating protects against caustic or corrosive environmental elements

RSLogix 5000 Integrated

  • Module communication is integrated within RSLogix 5000 using a sample Add-On Instruction (AOI) or sample ladder logic file

Graphical User Interface Software

  • ProSoft Configuration Builder software (PCB) provides online or offline configuration and diagnostics using high-speed Ethernet port
  • CIPconnect-enabled, allows remote configuration and dignostic access across multiple bridged EtherNet/IP and ControlNet networks using Rockwell Automation 1756-ENxT and 1756-CNB network interface modules

Web-enabled Ethernet port with Discovery Service

  • Module Ethernet port provides a web server for local access to documentation, module status, and firmware update software
  • ProSoft Discovery Service, a software utility to locate MVI56E modules on the network and assign a temporary IP address for easy configuration

Specification

  • Operating Temperature : 0°C to 60°C (32°F to 140°F)
  • Storage Temperature : -40° F to 185° F (-40° C to 85° C)
  • Backward compatible with previous MVI56-MNET versions
  • Single-slot 1756 ControlLogix backplane compatible
  • 10/100 Mbps auto crossover detection Ethernet configuration and application port
  • User-definable module data memory mapping of up to 5000 16-bit registers
  • CIPconnect-enabled network configuration and diagnostics monitoring using ControlLogix 1756-ENxT and 1756-CNB modules and EtherNet/IP pass-through communication
  • ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) software supported, a Windows-based graphical user interface providing simple product and network configuration
  • Sample ladder logic and Add-On Instructions (AOI) are used for data transfer between module and processor
  • 4-character, alpha-numeric, scrolling LED display of status and diagnostics data in plain English – no cryptic error or alarm codes to decipher
  • ProSoft Discovery Service (PDS) software used to locate the module on the network and assign temporary IP address
  • Personality Module – a non-volatile, industrial-grade Compact Flash (CF) card used to store network and module configuration, allowing quick in-the-field product replacement by transferring the CF card
