Product Description


ProSoft Technology MVI56E-MCM Modbus Communication Module
Dual-Port Modbus RTU/TCP Master/Slave Module for Allen-Bradley ControlLogix 5000 PLC
1. Core Overview
The ProSoft Technology MVI56E-MCM is a high-performance dual-port Modbus communication module designed for Allen-Bradley ControlLogix 5000 series PLCs, enabling seamless data exchange between ControlLogix systems and Modbus RTU/TCP-enabled field devices (sensors, drives, meters, SCADA). It features two independent communication ports (Port 1: Modbus RTU/TCP; Port 2: Modbus RTU) that can be configured as master or slave independently, supporting up to 32 Modbus masters/slaves simultaneously. With built-in diagnostic tools, redundant communication options, and a compact ControlLogix chassis-compatible form factor, it is ideal for industrial automation, process control, and remote monitoring applications in oil & gas, manufacturing, and power generation.

Core Role: Modbus RTU/TCP communication bridge between ControlLogix 5000 PLC and Modbus field devices            • Key Specs: Dual ports (Port 1: RTU/TCP; Port 2: RTU); 32 simultaneous Modbus connections; 512KB shared memory            • Model Info: MVI56E-MCM; ProSoft Technology MVI56E Series; ControlLogix 5000 Compatible Communication Module            • Reliability: -40°C to +70°C operating temp; ControlLogix backplane-powered; CE/UL/FCC certified

2. Communication & Operational Capabilities
This module supports both Modbus RTU (serial RS-232/485) and Modbus TCP (Ethernet) protocols, with each port configurable as master or slave to flexibly adapt to different field network topologies. It provides 512KB of shared memory for data buffering between the ControlLogix PLC backplane and Modbus devices, ensuring fast and reliable data transmission with minimal PLC CPU load. The built-in Modbus configuration utility simplifies port setup, while real-time diagnostics (port status, connection errors, data throughput) and event logging enable quick troubleshooting. It also supports RS-485 line redundancy for Port 2, enhancing communication reliability in critical process control applications.

Protocols: Modbus RTU (RS-232/485), Modbus TCP (Ethernet); master/slave configurable per port            • Connections: Up to 32 simultaneous Modbus devices; dual independent ports; RS-485 redundancy for Port 2            • Performance: 512KB shared memory; low PLC CPU load; fast data throughput (up to 100 Mbps for TCP)            • Diagnostics: Real-time port status LED; event logging; Modbus configuration utility; remote troubleshooting support

3. ControlLogix 5000 Integration & Installation
The MVI56E-MCM is designed for plug-and-play integration with Allen-Bradley ControlLogix 5000 series PLC chassis (1756), drawing power directly from the ControlLogix backplane without the need for external power supplies. It is compatible with Studio 5000 Logix Designer software, with pre-built Add-On Instructions (AOIs) to simplify PLC program development and data mapping between the module and PLC. The hot-swappable design allows for online module replacement without shutting down the ControlLogix system, minimizing process downtime. Its compact form factor fits standard 1756 chassis slots, with screw-terminal wiring for serial ports and RJ45 for Ethernet ports, reducing on-site installation and commissioning time.

PLC Compatibility: Allen-Bradley ControlLogix 5000 (1756 chassis); Studio 5000 Logix Designer compatible            • Integration Tools: Pre-built Add-On Instructions (AOIs); 512KB shared memory for data mapping; backplane communication            • Installation: Plug-and-play 1756 chassis slot; backplane-powered; hot-swappable; RJ45 (TCP) + screw-terminal (RTU)            • Configuration: ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) software; easy port setup; Modbus register mapping
