Description

The ProSoft MVI69-DFNT is a high-performance communication module designed to provide EtherNet/IP connectivity for Rockwell Automation CompactLogix and MicroLogix 1500 LRP platforms. Acting as a bridge within the 1769 backplane, this module facilitates robust data exchange between the PLC and external EtherNet/IP-enabled devices. It supports both client and server operations, allowing for flexible integration into complex industrial automation architectures, including manufacturing, material handling, and process control systems.

Features

  • Backplane Integration: Designed specifically for the 1769 CompactLogix backplane, occupying a single slot.
  • Protocol Support: Acts as an EtherNet/IP Client/Server interface, supporting explicit messaging for efficient data transfer.
  • Command Capacity: Supports up to 100 user-configurable commands for read/write operations to remote network devices.
  • Server Functionality: Includes 20 server connections to handle requests from external network equipment.
  • Processor Compatibility: Compatible with a wide range of CompactLogix processors (L20, L30, L31, L32, L35) and L43/L45 models (requires RSLogix 5000 v16.03 or later).
  • Legacy Support: Fully compatible with MicroLogix 1500 LRP controllers.

Applications

The MVI69-DFNT is ideal for industrial environments requiring reliable network isolation and dedicated communication ports. It is commonly used to integrate third-party EtherNet/IP devices, manage network traffic, and extend the communication capabilities of existing CompactLogix control systems.

Installation Guidelines

  • Power Down: Always remove power from the 1769 backplane before installing or removing the module to prevent electrical damage.
  • Seating: Ensure the module is properly aligned with the backplane connector and fully seated in the slot. Secure the module using the integrated locking mechanism.
  • Grounding: Follow standard industrial grounding practices for the 1769 system to minimize electrical noise and EMI interference.
  • Wiring: Use shielded Ethernet cabling for network connections to maintain signal integrity in high-EMI industrial environments.
  • ESD Handling: Use an anti-static wrist strap or similar ESD protection when handling the module to prevent damage to sensitive internal components.

FAQ

Does the MVI69-DFNT require special software for configuration?

The module is typically configured using ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) software, which allows you to define the communication parameters and command lists required for your specific application.

Can this module be used in a remote I/O rack?

The MVI69-DFNT is designed for use in the local 1769 backplane of a CompactLogix controller. It is not intended for use in remote I/O chassis.
