Product Description

Description

Integrating Modbus serial connectivity into Rockwell Automation ControlLogix systems is simplified using the MVI56-MCM Modbus Master/Slave Communication Module. This high-performance backplane-compatible module allows ControlLogix processors to interface seamlessly with Modbus RTU and Modbus ASCII protocols. Operating as either a Master or a Slave, the module facilitates direct high-speed data transfer across the ControlLogix backplane, eliminating the need for external protocol gateways and optimizing industrial automation networks.

The MVI56-MCM features dual independent serial ports, providing highly flexible configuration options for complex multi-device networks. By utilizing user-defined data tables and dedicated system memory, it enables robust supervisory control and data acquisition across diverse industrial environments.

Features

  • Direct slot-in compatibility with Rockwell Automation ControlLogix chassis.
  • Dual independent communication ports configurable as Modbus Master or Modbus Slave.
  • Supports both Modbus RTU and Modbus ASCII transmission modes.
  • Configurable parameters for baud rates, parity, data bits, and stop bits per port.
  • Data transfer via I/O connection to the ControlLogix processor for rapid synchronization.
  • Diagnostic and status tracking data accessible directly within processor memory.

Applications

  • SCADA and HMI integration with industrial field devices.
  • Power monitoring, metering, and energy distribution management.
  • Coordination and monitoring of variable frequency drives (VFDs) and motor controllers.
  • Remote telemetry unit (RTU) interface and flow computer data aggregation.
  • Chemical processing, oil and gas, and water/wastewater plant automation.

Technical Specifications

Manufacturer ProSoft Technology
Model / Part Number MVI56-MCM
Product Type Modbus Communication Module
Platform Compatibility ControlLogix Chassis
Backplane Current Load 800 mA @ 5 VDC, 3 mA @ 24 VDC
Operating Temperature 0 to 60 degC (32 to 140 degF)
Storage Temperature -40 to 85 degC (-40 to 185 degF)
Relative Humidity 5% to 95% (non-condensing)

Installation Guidelines

Before installing the module, ensure the ControlLogix chassis power supply is completely switched off. Insert the MVI56-MCM into any available slot in the chassis, ensuring the module connector pins align perfectly with the backplane. Secure the module by tightening the mounting screws.

To prevent electrical interference and preserve communication integrity, use high-quality shielded twisted-pair cables for all RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 serial connections, and verify that the shield is properly grounded at a single point.

FAQ
What is the main function of the ProSoft MVI56-MCM module?
The MVI56-MCM allows Rockwell Automation ControlLogix processors to communicate with Modbus RTU/ASCII field devices by acting as a Modbus Master or Slave directly over the ControlLogix backplane.
Can both serial ports on the MVI56-MCM run different protocols simultaneously?
Yes, both ports are completely independent and can be individually configured for Modbus RTU or ASCII, and set to either Master or Slave mode.
What are the power requirements for this module?
The MVI56-MCM draws its power directly from the ControlLogix backplane, requiring 800 mA at 5 VDC and 3 mA at 24 VDC.
Does the MVI56-MCM require external configuration software?
Configuration is typically completed via standard RSLogix 5000 / Studio 5000 programming environments using provided Add-On Instructions (AOI) or sample ladder logic.
