Product Description:
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.

- 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
- 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
- ProSoft Technology's Modbus TCP/IP implementation (MNET) includes both Client (Master) and server (slave) capabilities
- Modbus data types overlap in the module's memory database, so the same data can be conveniently read or written as bit-level or register-level data
- Configurable floating point data movement is possible, including support for Enron or Daniel floating point formats
- Supports five independent server connections for Service Port 502 (MBAP)
- Supports five independent server connections for Service Port 2000 (Encapsulated)

- Module data can be derived from other Modbus server devices on the network through the Client or from the ControlLogix processor
- Actively reads data from and writes data to Modbus TCP/IP devices, using MBAP or Encapsulated Modbus message formats
- Transmit Modbus Function Codes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 15, and 16
- Offers one Client connection with up to 100 commands to talk to multiple severs
- ControlLogix processor can be programmed to use special functions to control the activity on the Client by actively selecting commands to execute from the command list (Command Control) or issuing commands from ladder logic(Event Commands)
- Error codes, counters, and module status available from module memory through the Server, through the Client, or through the ladder logic and controller tags in RSLogix 5000
