Prosoft MVI56-MCM

Rayon Automation Company has specially prepared a very "classic" communication bridge for overseas industrial automation system integrators and engineers responsible for upgrading old equipment - the Prosoft MVI56-MCM Modbus communication module on the ControlLogix platform. When conducting projects or maintaining equipment, the most troublesome issue for most people might be holding a high-end Rockwell PLC in hand, yet having to communicate with the hundreds of dollars each intelligent instruments, frequency converters, or old third-party devices at the site. Language barriers are truly a nightmare. As a professional Chinese automation spare parts service provider, Rayon Automation Company recommends this long-standing module specifically designed to solve the problem of "incompatible communication protocols". This is to enable your ControlLogix system to smoothly read and write data from Modbus devices, completely eliminating the annoyance of data islands caused by incompatible protocols.

Performance

The performance of this Prosoft MVI56-MCM is truly "stable". Its main feature is that it supports Modbus RTU and Modbus ASCII protocols. It can issue commands to the field instruments and frequency converters in the master station mode, and also wait for the dispatch from the upper-level SCADA system in the slave station mode. Its two ports can work independently at the same time. You can connect a frequency converter to one port and an energy meter to the other port, without interfering with each other. Its data throughput capability is very strong. It can handle the reading and writing of hundreds of registers per second, with extremely low latency. It can also automatically handle data checksums and retransmissions in case of timeouts, ensuring the accuracy of data transmission. Its performance indicators are truly top-notch.

 Characteristics

When you hold this Prosoft MVI56-MCM, the first impression is "solid" and "factory-style". Its size and color are exactly the same as those of Allen-Bradley's ControlLogix I/O module. It feels very heavy in your hand, not the flimsy plastic feel. The panel design is very professional. The most prominent feature is the two rows of dense status indicator lights, labeled as Port 1, Port 2, Error, Active, etc. This is a great feature. Without connecting to any computer software, just by observing how fast the lights flash and what colors they are, experienced engineers can determine whether the communication is running smoothly and if there are any packet losses. There are also two standard serial port interfaces on the front panel, which are very sturdy. The screw holes for insertion and removal are very neatly arranged. The overall appearance is extremely professional.

Company Strengths

Rayon Automation has been manufacturing Prosoft communication modules for many years. Our greatest advantage lies in our expertise in "protocol compatibility testing" and "firmware version verification". There are some disassembled components on the market that seem to have working lights, but their firmware versions might be too old and not compatible with the new version of RSLogix 5000 software, or one of the ports might be broken. We are different. Every MVI56-MCM we receive, our engineers will power it on and use specialized tools to test whether the data transmission and reception is normal, and verify whether its firmware is a mainstream version. What we aim to do is to provide you with a reliable product that is "fully functional and version-matched".
