The PROFIBUS DPV1 Master module is a powerful communication interface for Rockwell Automation® CompactLogix / MicroLogix® processors. Developed under license from Rockwell Automation, the module incorporates proprietary backplane technology that enables powerful data exchange with CompactLogix / MicroLogix processors. The module supports complete Master specifications according to IEC 61158. Acyclic parameter data can be transferred with Class 1 or Class 2 DPV1 services, allowing processors to easily communicate with slave devices supporting PROFIBUS DPV0/V1 protocol. The module acts as an input/output module between the PROFIBUS network and the CompactLogix / MicroLogix processor. Data transfer from the processor is asynchronous with the I/O data transfer on the PROFIBUS network.

The MVI56E-MCMR Enhanced Modbus Master/Slave Communication Module with Reduced Data Block allows Rockwell Automation® ControlLogix® processors to easily interface with devices using the Modbus RTU/ASCII serial communications protocol. Compatible devices include a wide variety of instruments, process measurement devices, popular brands of programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and programmable automation controllers (PACs). The MVI56E-MCMR acts as an input/output module on the ControlLogix backplane, making Modbus data appear as I/O data to the processor. Backplane data transfers to and from the processor are asynchronous from communications on the Modbus network. Two independently-configurable serial ports can operate on the same or different Modbus networks. Each port can be configured as a Modbus Master or Slave, sharing the same user-controlled 5000-word database.

The AN-X2-AB-DHRIO Gateway is designed to help customers initiate a phased migration approach to replacing or upgrading legacy Remote I/O PLCs, HMI's, Drives or Flex I/O Adapters. These solutions can be achieved by selecting the corresponding operation mode during initial configuration. The AN-X2-AB-DHRIO has a built-in web server that can display diagnostics data, configuration, upload configuration files, and set the operation mode.

ProSoft Technology’s Modbus® TCP/IP to Modbus® Serial four-port Serial gateway allows high-speed bi-directional data transfers between Modbus® TCP/IP-enabled PACs and Modbus® Serial devices. Modbus® Serial devices are widely used in nearly every industry and include SCADA systems and Power Monitors. Four Serial ports allow for connectivity of up to 400 Modbus® Serial devices, reducing the amount of gateways required for your application. In addition, the gateway includes several features that allow for simplified integration, reduced commissioning time and optimized performance.

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.

ProSoft Technology’s ILX34-MBS232 module is ideal for point to point applications with a maximum distance of 50 feet away (15.2 meters) your processor. These include SCADA and field device interface applications. The module can be used in CompactLogix L1 processors or  Distributed 1734 Point I/O systems. In addition, the module can be configured as a Master or Slave.

The EtherNet/IP® to Modbus Serial gateway offers bi-directional data transfers between Modbus Serial and the EtherNet/IP network. Our EtherNet/IP Driver uses Class 1 I/O connections and/or Class 3 Message instructions. Protocol conversion gateways are the ideal solution for distributed networks when adding a remote rack becomes too costly. The PLX31-EIP-MBS4 gateways are stand-alone DIN-rail mounted gateways that provide one Ethernet port for communication, allowing for remote configuration and diagnostics, and up to four (4) serial communication ports. The PLX30 gateways also come with an SD Card slot (SD card optional) for storing configuration files. In the event of a failure the SD card can be transferred to another gateway reducing downtime. These gateways also come with a wide input power range (10 Vdc – 36 Vdc), and an extended temperature range (-25°C to 70°C ). The PLX30 gateways include all the necessary cables required for communication.

The MVI69-MCM Modbus Master/Slave Network Interface Module allows Rockwell Automation® CompactLogix™ Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs) and MicroLogix™ 1769-LRP Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) to interface with Modbus-compatible devices. Compatible devices include not only Modicon® PLCs but also a wide assortment of third-party devices found in nearly every industry.

The EtherNet/IP to PROFINET device gateway offers bi-directional data transfers between a PROFINET Controller and EtherNet/IP networks. The PLX32-EIP-PND gateway is a stand-alone DIN-rail mounted unit that provides two Ethernet ports, with each port using a different subnet. The onboard SD Card slot (SD card optional) is used for storing configuration files that can be used for recovery, transferring the configuration to another gateway, or general configuration backup. The EtherNet/IP Driver uses Class 1 I/O connections or Class 3 Message instructions. The PROFINET driver operates as a PROFINET Class A device.

The MVI69E-MBS Modbus Serial module for CompactLogix™ is designed for all applications requiring Modbus Serial connectivity. This module comes with an Add-on Profile and an Add-on Instruction to reduce commissioning time. The MVI69E-MBS has two serial ports and can support both Master and/or Slave connectivity to interface with a variety of devices using the Modbus Protocol.

The DF1 Routing Module can be used in a similar way to Rockwell Automation's discontinued 1761-NET-ENI module. The module provides EtherNet/IP connectivity for SLC™ 500, CompactLogix™ and MicroLogix™ controllers, as well as many other DF1™- enabled devices. The module can be used for messaging between two controllers, uploading and downloading PLC programs, modernizing HMIs, or migrating legacy Honeywell systems.
