MVI56E-MCM ControlLogix Platform Modbus 通讯模块

System Requirements 

The MVI56E-MCM module requires the following minimum hardware and software components: 

 Rockwell Automation ControlLogix® processor (firmware version 10 or higher) with compatible limited voltage power supply and one free slot in the rack for the MVI56EMCM module. 

The module requires 800mA of available 5 VDC and 3 mA of available 24 VDC power. 

 Rockwell Automation RSLogix 5000 programming software o Version 16 or higher required for Add-On Instruction o Version 15 or lower must use Sample Ladder, available from 

 Rockwell Automation RSLinx® communication software version 2.51 or higher 

 ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) (included) 

 Pentium® II 450 MHz minimum. Pentium III 733 MHz (or better) recommended 

 Supported operating systems: o Microsoft Windows 10 o Microsoft Windows 7 Professional (32-or 64-bit) o Microsoft Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 1 or 2 o Microsoft Windows Vista o Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional with Service Pack 1, 2, or 3 o Microsoft Windows Server 2003 

 128 Mbytes of RAM minimum, 256 Mbytes of RAM recommended 

 100 Mbytes of free hard disk space (or more based on application requirements) 

 256-color VGA graphics adapter, 800 x 600 minimum resolution (True Color 1024  768 recommended)

Before you begin configuring the module, consider the following questions. Your answers will help you determine the scope of your project, and the configuration requirements for a successful deployment. 

1 ____________ Are you creating a new application or integrating the module into an existing application? Most applications can use the Sample Add-On Instruction or Sample Ladder Logic without any edits to the Sample Program. 

2 ____________ Which slot number in the chassis will the MVI56E-MCM module occupy? For communication to occur, you must enter the correct slot number in the sample program. 

3 ____________ Are RSLogix 5000 and RSLinx software installed? RSLogix and RSLinx are required to communicate to the ControlLogix processor (1756-L1, L55, L61 & L63). Sample Ladder programs are available for different versions of RSLogix 5000.
