MVI71-MNET Allen Bradley

Description

Product Name:  MVI71-MNET Allen Braley Output module

Product details:  

The Allen-Bradley MVI71-MNET is a Modbus TCP/IP Communication Module designed by ProSoft Technology for use with the Allen-Bradley PLC-71 (and compatible) platforms. It serves as a gateway, allowing the PLC to interface seamlessly with Modbus TCP/IP-enabled devices over an Ethernet network.

1. Product Description

The MVI71-MNET is a single-slot backplane-compatible module. It acts as a bridge between the Rockwell Automation backplane and the Ethernet network. It allows the PLC to function as a Client (Master) or a Server (Slave) on a Modbus TCP/IP network. It is specifically engineered for legacy industrial environments where integration between older PLC systems and modern Ethernet infrastructure is required.

2. Technical Specifications

3. Product Advantages

• Seamless Integration: Designed to fit directly into the Allen-Bradley rack, requiring no external power supply or complex mounting.

• Versatility: Supports both Client and Server modes simultaneously, allowing the PLC to control other devices while providing data to SCADA systems.

• High Performance: Provides fast data transfer rates across the backplane, ensuring real-time monitoring and control.

• Easy Configuration: Uses simple text-based configuration files or ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) software, reducing setup time.

• Legacy Support: Extends the life of existing PLC hardware by adding modern connectivity options.

4. Key Considerations & Precautions

• Network Security: Since this module connects your PLC to an Ethernet network, ensure the network is secured behind a firewall to prevent unauthorized access.

• Power Budget: Check the power supply capacity of your PLC rack, as the module draws significant current (800 mA).

• Firmware Compatibility: Ensure that your PLC processor and the MVI71 module are running compatible firmware versions for stable communication.

• Configuration Backups: Always keep a backup of the .cfg configuration file; if the module fails, a replacement can be swapped in quickly using the backup.

5. Product Applications

• SCADA Connectivity: Linking a PLC system to a centralized SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system via Ethernet.

• Inter-PLC Communication: Facilitating data exchange between Allen-Bradley PLCs and Schneider Electric or other Modbus-compatible controllers.

• Power Monitoring: Interfacing with smart power meters and protection relays that use Modbus TCP/IP.

• Remote I/O Integration: Controlling distributed I/O blocks located across a plant floor via a standard Ethernet switch.
