MVI69L-MBTCP ProSoft Technology Modbus TCP Client Server

ProSoft MVI69L-MBTCP CompactLogix Modbus TCP/IP Lite Communication Module

Product Description

The MVI69L-MBTCP (MVI69L-MBTCP) is a Modbus TCP/IP Lite communication module specifically engineered for Allen-Bradley CompactLogix™ systems utilizing the 1769 I/O bus. This single-slot solution provides a streamlined communication bridge, allowing CompactLogix L2, L3, and L4 processors to interface seamlessly with Modbus TCP/IP field devices. The MVI69L-MBTCP (MVI69L-MBTCP) supports both Client (Master) and Server (Slave) roles, enabling bi-directional data exchange with equipment such as power meters, variable frequency drives (VFDs), and remote I/O.

As a "Lite" version, the MVI69L-MBTCP (MVI69L-MBTCP) is optimized for smaller-scale applications that require essential Modbus connectivity without the hardware overhead of higher-density modules. It integrates deeply into the Rockwell Automation ecosystem using Add-On Profiles (AOP) and Add-On Instructions (AOI), allowing engineers to perform all configuration and diagnostics directly within Studio 5000®. Configuration data is stored in the controller's .ACD project file, facilitating rapid module replacement and system recovery.
