Description

The PROSOFT MVI69-ADMNET is a single‑slot, backplane‑compatible application development module designed for the Rockwell Automation CompactLogix platform. The MVI69-ADMNET uniquely combines two fully isolated serial ports and an Ethernet port with a powerful 'C' programmable environment, allowing engineers to implement custom communication protocols at the application layer. The PROSOFT MVI69-ADMNET provides both Client and Server Ethernet support, enabling it to function as a data collection sub‑master or a powerful slave device for HMI hosts. This original development solution is ideal for integrating legacy ASCII, serial, and Ethernet devices seamlessly into a modern control architecture.

Applications

Legacy System Integration: Connect ASCII-based and older serial devices without native Ethernet support

Proprietary Protocol Conversion: Implement custom, non‑standard protocols using the 'C' programming API

Bar Code Scanner and Printer Interfaces: Directly interface serial barcode scanners and industrial printers

Terminal Port Emulation: Emulate terminals to interface with serial‑based equipment requiring human interaction

Data Concentrator: Gather data from multiple Modbus or custom serial slaves for a central HMI

Ethernet Gateway (Client/Server): Enable a CompactLogix to act as a Modbus TCP/IP client or server

Battery and Power Management: Interface with proprietary battery management systems in power generation

Food and Beverage Processing: Connect legacy weighing scales, barcode readers, and packaging equipment

Oil, Gas, and Manufacturing: Interface with legacy RTUs, flow computers, and analytical devices

Features

'C' Programmable Development Environment: Provides complete flexibility to implement any protocol; includes industry‑standard DOS programming tools and the ADMNET API Suite

Triple-Interface Connectivity: Combines Ethernet (10/100 Base‑T) support with two serial ports (one isolated RS‑232/422/485, one configuration RS‑232) in a single module

Dual Ethernet Roles: Supports both Client and Server functionality, enabling the module to be a data collector or an HMI slave

Rockwell Automation Backplane Technology: Incorporates proprietary backplane technology licensed from Rockwell Automation for native compatibility and high‑speed data access

Ladder Logic Data Transfer: Simple ladder logic is required in the CompactLogix processor to control data transfer, using a block numbering and paging scheme to optimize memory usage

High-Speed, Deterministic Data Exchange: Supports user‑selectable I/O data transfer lengths (60, 120, 240 words) across up to 4000 registers for rapid backplane updates

Non‑Volatile Configuration Storage: Configuration data is stored in the module's EEPROM and Flash ROM, guaranteeing that custom programs and settings persist through power cycles

Isolated Serial Port for Field Interfaces: The main application serial port (PRT1) is galvanically isolated, protecting the CompactLogix backplane from electrical noise and ground loops

SDK Included: Includes the full API Library, Header File, documentation, utilities, and a Digital Mars 'C' compiler to begin development immediately

Broad CompactLogix Support: Compatible with all CompactLogix and MicroLogix 1500 LRP Controllers, excluding a few specific models (1769-L23E-QBFC1B, 1769-L16x, and 1769-L18x)

Functions

Custom Protocol Handling: The on‑board processor executes user‑written 'C' applications, enabling the module to communicate using any proprietary or legacy protocol required by field devices

Ethernet and Serial Gateway: Bridges data between the industrial Ethernet network and up to two serial field devices (one configurable as RS‑232/422/485), or vice versa, allowing bi‑directional data flow

API Abstraction Layer: The ADMNET API Suite provides a library of function calls that abstract the hardware, allowing developers to access the backplane, serial ports, and Ethernet network without needing detailed knowledge of the module's hardware design

Backplane Data Exchange: Exchanges up to 4000 words of data with the CompactLogix processor over the 1769 backplane using a high‑speed, block‑oriented, asynchronous protocol controlled by simple ladder logic

Industrial Protocol Support: While it is a development platform, the module's Ethernet port provides native support for industry‑standard protocols commonly used for integration (including Modbus TCP/IP)

Failsafe Bit Status: Provides a heartbeat counter and status bits in the ladder logic interface that can be used to detect loss of communication between the module and the CompactLogix processor, allowing the user to trigger failsafe actions

Multi‑Channel Data Collection: The API supports multi‑threaded applications, allowing a single module to independently manage multiple communication channels simultaneously

Debug and Configuration: The dedicated CFG port provides a direct RS‑232 connection to a PC for debugging custom code, updating firmware, and downloading new applications without affecting the connected field equipment

FAQ

Q1: Is the PROSOFT MVI69-ADMNET compatible with all CompactLogix controllers?

A1: The PROSOFT MVI69-ADMNET is compatible with the majority of CompactLogix and MicroLogix 1500 LRP controllers. However, it is NOT compatible with controllers 1769-L23E-QBFC1B, 1769-L16x, and 1769-L18x. For all others, it provides native 1769 backplane communication.

Q2: What is the difference between the MVI69-ADM and the MVI69-ADMNET?

A2: The PROSOFT MVI69-ADMNET is the more feature‑rich version. While the MVI69-ADM module provides 'C' programmability with two serial ports, the MVI69-ADMNET adds a powerful Ethernet port, transforming the module into a multi‑interface gateway capable of bridging Ethernet and serial networks simultaneously.

Q3: Can I use the MVI69-ADMNET as a Modbus TCP/IP Client or Server?

A3: Yes. The PROSOFT MVI69-ADMNET supports both Client and Server modes over its Ethernet port. This allows it to initiate requests to other Ethernet devices or act as a slave device on a network, serving data to SCADA or HMI systems. This is in addition to its powerful 'C' programmable custom protocol capabilities.

Q4: How many MVI69-ADMNET modules can I install in one CompactLogix rack?

A4: You can install multiple MVI69-ADMNET modules in a single rack. The precise number is limited only by the total current load capacity of your system's power supply and the available backplane data transfer bandwidth. Each module draws 800 mA at 5V DC, so you must ensure your power supply meets the total demand.

Q5: What is the advantage of the 'C' Programmable feature?

A5: The 'C' programmable feature is the module's key differentiator. Unlike standard communication modules, the PROSOFT MVI69-ADMNET allows you to write custom 'C' code, giving you the power to create a perfect interface for any legacy or proprietary ASCII or binary serial protocol, not just standard ones like Modbus. This protects your investment in older equipment.
