MVI56E-MNETR

• Backward-compatible with previous MVI56-MNETR versions
• Single-Slot 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
• Reduced I/O image size designed specifically to optimize remote rack implementations
• 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 (AOIs) are used for data transfer between module and processor
• Internal web server provides access to product documentation, module status, diagnostics, and firmware updates
• 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

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

The MVI56E-MNETR uses a reduced Input/Output (I/O) data image block size for transferring data between itself and a ControlLogix processor. This makes it ideal for remote rack applications using ControlNet or EtherNet/IP process networks. The module also works well for applications that require redundant ControlLogix processors.

MVI56E-MNETR 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.
