Specification
Supports up to 30 Clients: Reduces network traffic
RSLogix 5000 Integrated: No additional PAC/PLC programming required
RSLogix 5000 Integrated: The module communication is integrated with RSLogix 5000 using a supplied Add-On Instruction (AOI) or ladder file
Supports up to 30 Clients: Faster response for multi server applications
Enable/Disable commands easily from ladder logic.: Programatically enable various networked devices and their functions to support multiple applications or recipes, without having to reconfigure the module
Supports up to 30 Clients: Minimizes impact to other server communications when one server device goes off-line
Remotely configure and diagnose problems: Easy to use Windows-based configuration software connects through remote racks using EtherNet/IP and/or ControlNet via a 1756-EnxT and/or 1756-CNB interface module without requiring RSLinx OEM saving you money
Web-enabled Ethernet port: The module has a built-in web server for easy access to documentation, module status, and to update firmware
Remotely configure and diagnose problems: Allows support of IT and Automation network segmentation
MVI56 backward compatible: Assists in extending current MVI56 applications by using newer technology that supports existing MVI56 ladder logic and module configuration
The MVI56E Modbus TCP/IP Multi Client Enhanced Communication Module for Remote Chassis allows Rockwell Automation ControlLogix Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs) to interface easily with multiple Modbus TCP/IP server-compatible instruments and devices. The Multi Client module improves performance when controlling multiple servers on a Modbus TCP/IP network, by supporting up to 30 clients. MVI56E enhancements include configuration and management through the module Ethernet port, CIPconnect technology for bridging through ControlNet and EtherNet/IP networks, and has a web server to access on-board documentation, Add-On Instructions, and sample program files. This module uses a small I/O data image for transfer of data between the module and the ControlLogix processor, making it ideal for ControlNet or Ethernet applications with the module in a remote rack.
