The PROSOFT MVI71-ADM is a single‑slot, backplane‑compatible application development module designed specifically for the Rockwell Automation 1771 PLC platform. The MVI71-ADM allows engineers to develop and execute custom 'C' applications directly on the PLC backplane, eliminating the need for external gateway hardware. The PROSOFT MVI71-ADM supports two fully isolated serial ports and offers dual‑path communication via either Block Transfer (BTR/BTW) ladder logic or the Side‑Connect interface (with optional adapter). This powerful development solution is ideal for protecting proprietary algorithms, implementing custom serial protocols, and integrating legacy ASCII devices seamlessly into your control architecture.
Legacy ASCII Protocol Connections: Interface non‑standard or obsolete ASCII devices with modern PLC‑5 systems
Proprietary Algorithm Protection: Encrypt or securely host confidential intellectual property directly on the backplane
Bar Code Scanner Interfaces: Connect serial barcode readers directly to the PLC without third‑party converters
Terminal Port Emulation: Emulate serial terminals to communicate with legacy industrial equipment
Alarm and Status Printer Drivers: Connect printers directly to generate real‑time alarm logs
Custom Protocol Implementation: Develop any proprietary serial protocol not available in off‑the‑shelf gateways
Weigh Scale Interfaces: Directly integrate industrial scales and measurement devices
Manufacturing Data Collection: Consolidate data from multiple serial instruments for SCADA systems
'C' Programmability: Industry‑standard DOS programming tools allow developers to write, compile, and download custom 'C' applications to the module, enabling unlimited flexibility for proprietary or legacy protocol handling.
Dual Serial Ports (Isolated): Two fully isolated application serial ports (P2 and P3), each jumper‑configurable for RS‑232, RS‑422, or RS‑485 multi‑drop field communication.
1771 Backplane Compatibility: Single‑slot form factor designed specifically for the Rockwell Automation 1771 chassis, recognized by the processor as an I/O module.
Two Independent Data Transfer Methods: Choose between traditional Block Transfer (BTR/BTW) ladder logic communication or the high‑speed Side‑Connect interface for reduced backplane overhead.
Comprehensive API Suite: Includes the ADM API, Backplane API, and Serial Port API with full documentation, example code, and a complete SDK to jumpstart development.
Large Memory Resources: 896 KB Flash ROM for program storage and 640 KB RAM for runtime data processing, with a socket for Compact Flash cards up to 64 MB.
Non‑Volatile Configuration Storage: Configuration data and custom applications are permanently stored in Flash ROM, surviving power cycles without requiring reprogramming.
Industrial Environmental Ratings: Wide operating temperature range (0°C to 60°C), high shock and vibration tolerance, and 5% to 95% non‑condensing humidity rating for reliable performance in harsh factory conditions.
Onboard Diagnostic LEDs: Visual status indicators for module health, backplane transfer activity, serial port communication, and error conditions.
Custom protocol engine – write your own serial driver using
Database – 5000‑word shared memory with bit/byte/word/float access
Backplane exchange – moves data via BTR/BTW (ladder) or Side‑Connect (direct)
Status monitoring –updates LED and processor status tables
Configuration – read/write PLC‑5 files and clock, clear faults, change mode
Q1: Does the MVI71-ADM work in a ControlLogix chassis?
A1: No. It is for the 1771 (PLC‑5) platform only. Use MVI56‑ADM for ControlLogix.
Q2: What is Side‑Connect and do I need it?
A2: Side‑Connect is a high‑speed direct memory link to the PLC‑5. It requires an optional adapter. Use Block Transfer if you don’t need maximum speed.
Q3: Which compiler is included in the SDK?
A3: The SDK includes Digital Mars C++ 8.49. Borland C++ 5.02 is also supported.
Q4: Can I use the module without ladder logic?
A4: Yes, when using the Side‑Connect interface. Normal data transfer needs no ladder logic; special controls (warm boot) still require a few rungs.
Q5: Is the battery user replaceable?
A5: No. The internal RTC battery is rechargeable and not user replaceable. Keep the module powered for 20 hours to fully charge it.
