Description

Integrating PROFIBUS DP network connectivity directly into Rockwell Automation ControlLogix systems, the ProSoft MVI56-PDPMV1 PROFIBUS DPV1 Master Communication Module functions as an efficient gateway between the PLC backplane and distributed field devices. This single-slot module mounts directly into the ControlLogix chassis, enabling the processor to control slave devices via high-speed cyclic data exchange (DPV0) and configuration/diagnostic acyclic data transfer (DPV1).

The MVI56-PDPMV1 establishes high-speed communication without consuming excessive rack space or requiring complex ladder logic. Featuring a dedicated RS-232 RJ45 serial configuration port, the module also supports remote configuration and diagnostics across EtherNet/IP using CIPConnect technology, allowing engineers to maintain the system through a network-linked ControlLogix Ethernet bridge.

Features

  • Provides a seamless PROFIBUS DP Master connection directly within the ControlLogix backplane.
  • Supports both DPV0 cyclic messaging for real-time control and DPV1 acyclic messaging for advanced instrument configuration.
  • Compatible with CIPConnect, enabling remote diagnostics and network configuration routing through ControlLogix Ethernet modules.
  • Equipped with a dedicated RJ45 configuration port operating on the RS-232 standard.
  • Comprehensive front-panel LED diagnostics for rapid assessment of module status, backplane transfers, and serial communications.

Applications

  • Integration of PROFIBUS field instrumentation (transmitters, valves, actuators) in oil and gas production systems.
  • Distributed I/O management in water treatment plants and wastewater facilities.
  • Process automation and factory floor machinery integration requiring DPV1 acyclic parameterization.
  • Heavy industrial material handling and power generation automation.

FAQ

What is the primary function of the ProSoft MVI56-PDPMV1 module?

The MVI56-PDPMV1 allows an Allen-Bradley ControlLogix processor to act as a PROFIBUS DP Master. It handles cyclic high-speed data transfer (DPV0) and acyclic configuration transfer (DPV1) to communicate with downstream PROFIBUS slaves.

Does this module support remote configuration?

Yes, through CIPConnect technology, the MVI56-PDPMV1 can be configured and diagnosed remotely over an EtherNet/IP network routed through a standard ControlLogix Ethernet module.

What configuration cables are included with the MVI56-PDPMV1?

The module is shipped with RJ45 to DB-9M cables for the serial configuration ports and a standard 6-foot RS-232 configuration cable.

What are the power requirements of the module from the backplane?

The module draws 800 mA at 5 VDC and 3 mA at 24 VDC from the ControlLogix chassis backplane.
