Prosoft Type Designation:ASCII

Features & Benefits:[“Supports DNP Subset Level 2 features and some Level 3 features for integrating SCADA and field devices”,”Two serial ports supporting the DF1 protocol, each configurable as a master or slave”,”User-defined databases stored on non-volatile industrial-grade Compact Flash (CF) card”,”Asynchronous data transfer from ControlLogix to DNP network actions”,”Compatible with Modicon PLCs and other DF1 protocol devices”]

    The Prosoft MVI56-DFCM Network Interface Module is designed to facilitate the integration of ControlLogix processors with a wide array of DF1 protocol devices, ensuring seamless communication for industrial automation tasks. This module acts as a pivotal connection, allowing for enhanced data flow and control in your system.

    With its two serial ports, users can configure each port to function as either a master or a slave, providing flexibility in device management. The module’s compatibility with Allen-Bradley ControlLogix I/O processors ensures a smooth integration process, streamlining your system setup and maintenance.

    The MVI56-DFCM supports a range of DF1 protocol devices, including Modicon PLCs and other compatible end devices, making it an essential component for expanding your automation network. This broad compatibility is bolstered by its support for both DNP Subset Level 2 and select Level 3 features, enhancing its functionality within complex industrial environments.

    Data transfer from the ControlLogix platform to the DF1 network occurs asynchronously, reducing latency and improving overall system performance. This asynchronous nature ensures that your data flows efficiently, without interfering with the real-time operations of your devices.

    For added security and ease of management, the module utilizes a non-volatile industrial-grade Compact Flash (CF) card to store network and module configurations. This personality module ensures quick and easy product replacement, as well as disaster recovery, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity.
