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 through 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.
