Description

The ProSoft MVI56-CSC is a high-performance ASCII Serial Communication Module designed for seamless integration with Rockwell Automation ControlLogix platforms. This module provides two fully isolated serial ports, allowing the ControlLogix processor to interface with a wide range of ASCII-based devices such as barcode scanners, weigh scales, printers, and terminal blocks. By offloading serial communication tasks from the main processor, the MVI56-CSC enhances overall system efficiency and simplifies data exchange in industrial automation environments.

Features

  • Dual isolated serial ports for robust communication.
  • Supports RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 physical interfaces.
  • Configurable baud rates from 300 to 115,200 bit/s.
  • Direct backplane communication with ControlLogix processors.
  • Supports complex ASCII string handling and data parsing.
  • LED status indicators for module health and port activity.

Installation Guidelines

  • Ensure the ControlLogix rack is powered down before inserting or removing the module.
  • Slide the module into any available slot in the ControlLogix chassis and secure it using the top and bottom locking tabs.
  • Use shielded communication cables to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) in high-noise industrial environments.
  • Ensure proper grounding of the serial cable shields at the device end to prevent ground loops.
  • Verify that the serial interface configuration (RS-232/422/485) matches the requirements of the connected field device.

FAQ

What type of devices can connect to the MVI56-CSC?

The module is designed to communicate with any ASCII-based serial device, including barcode scanners, weigh scales, LED marquees, and legacy serial instrumentation.

Does this module require external power?

No, the MVI56-CSC draws its power directly from the ControlLogix backplane.
