MVI56-DFCM ProSoft Technology Master/Slave Module ControlLogix

When needing additional DF1 ports in your ControlLogix system, the MVI56-DFCM Network Interface Module is the fastest and easiest way to add DF1 Half/Full Duplex Master and Slave capability. This module has two powerful and fully configurable DF1 ports allowing the many SCADA and field devices supporting the DF1 protocol to be integrated into the ControlLogix platform. Devices commonly supporting the protocol include Rockwell Automation PLCs and power monitoring equipment, as well as several other third party devices. Each port is user-configurable to act as a Master or as a slave.

Features and Benefits
-The MVI56-DFCM (DF1 Communication Module) allows Allen-Bradley ControlLogix I/O compatible processors to interface easily with other DF1 protocol compatible devices. Compatible devices include not only Modicon PLCs (which all support the DF1 protocol) but also a wide assortment of end devices. -The module has two serial ports supporting the DF1 protocol, with each port user-configurable to act as a master or as a slave. Data transfer between the module and the ControlLogix processor is asynchronous to the DF1 network, with the module's internal database being used to exchange data between the processor and the DF1 network.
