Executing custom user-written software applications directly within standard Rockwell Automation backplanes is facilitated by the ProSoft MVI56-ADM co-processor, a single-slot module designed for the ControlLogix platform. This development module allows industrial system integrators to build and load proprietary C-language applications, making it possible to integrate specialized field devices or construct non-standard communication protocols that are not supported by native controller configurations.
| Parameter | Specification |

| Model Number | MVI56-ADM |
| Module Type | 'C' Programmable Application Development Module |
| Platform Compatibility | ControlLogix System (Single-slot) |
| Backplane Current Load | 800 mA at 5 V DC |
| Operating Temperature | 0 to 60 degC (32 to 140 degF) |

| Shipping Weight (Calculated) | 2.0 kg (4.4 lbs) |
| Package Dimensions (Calculated) | 250 mm x 150 mm x 80 mm |
| Port Reference | Interface Type | Function / Circuit Assignment |
|---|---|---|
| PRT1 | RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 (Jumper Selectable) | Application communication port for peripheral devices. |
| PRT2 | RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 (Jumper Selectable) | Application communication port for peripheral devices. |
| CFG | RS-232 (RJ45 Connection) | Configuration and debugging interface for application deployment. |
The MVI56-ADM serves as a legacy-style programmable co-processor. When upgrading systems or looking for Ethernet-enabled development environments, consider the MVI56E-ADM or modern Ethernet-based application modules, though existing compiled C-code may require migration paths or library updates depending on the target processor environment.
This module demands 800 mA at 5 V DC directly from the ControlLogix backplane. It is essential to perform a chassis power supply calculation prior to installation, especially in multi-module setups, to prevent voltage drops or system resets. Additionally, memory management must be handled carefully within the custom C-application to prevent memory leaks and watchdog timeouts that could lock up module-to-backplane communications.
When configuring RS-485 interfaces on PRT1 or PRT2, ensure proper termination resistors are engaged at the physical ends of the communication run. Use high-quality shielded twisted-pair (STP) cabling to minimize industrial high-frequency noise interference, grounding the shield strictly at one end to avoid ground loop currents.
CRITICAL WARNING
Isolate all electrical power feeding the ControlLogix chassis before inserting or removing the MVI56-ADM module. Live insertion or extraction (RIUP) in unsafe environments can damage internal circuitry or result in unexpected process disruption.
