MVI56-GEC ProSoft Technology Generic ASCII Ethernet Module

The MVI56 Generic ASCII Ethernet Interface module is designed to allow ControlLogix processors to interface easily with ASCII devices using the TCP/IP protocol and the ControlLogix processor. Compatible devices may be either ASCII instruments with Ethernet built-in or Ethernet connection via a thin server to the existing ASCII device.

Features and Benefits
-Five servers and clients are present on the module permitting both the reception and transmission of data between the Rockwell Automation processor and attached devices.
-The MVI56-GEC module is a powerful communication interface for ControlLogix platform processors. Developed under license from Rockwell Automation, the module incorporates proprietary backplane technology that enables powerful data access between the module and the ControlLogix processor.
