Description / توضیحات
The MVI56E-MCMR Enhanced Modbus Master/Slave Communication Module with Reduced Data Block allows Rockwell Automation® ControlLogix® processors to easily interface with devices using the Modbus RTU/ASCII serial communications protocol. Compatible devices include a wide variety of instruments, process measurement devices, popular brands of programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and programmable automation controllers (PACs).
The MVI56E-MCMR acts as an input/output module on the ControlLogix backplane, making Modbus data appear as I/O data to the processor. Backplane data transfers to and from the processor are asynchronous from communications on the Modbus network. Two independently-configurable serial ports can operate on the same or different Modbus networks. Each port can be configured as a Modbus Master or Slave, sharing the same user-controlled 5000-word database.
The MVI56E-MCMR utilizes a reduced Input/Output (I/O) data block for transferring data to and from a ControlLogix processor. This reduced data block makes it ideal for use in remote rack applications over ControlNetTM. For EtherNet/IPTM applications where bandwidth is not an issue, it is strongly recommended to use the MVI56E-MCM.
