Prosoft MVI56-BAS

¥9,999.00

The ProSoft MVI56-BAS is a BASIC communication module from ProSoft Technology, designed for use with Rockwell Automation’s Allen-Bradley ControlLogix platform. The MVI56-BAS adds a programmable BASIC interpreter to the ControlLogix system, allowing users to implement custom communication and data-processing routines that run independently of the main controller scan. This makes the MVI56-BAS useful for applications requiring serial communication, protocol handling, or computational tasks that are awkward to implement in ladder logic. The module installs directly into a ControlLogix chassis slot and communicates with the processor over the backplane, so it integrates cleanly into existing systems. Built to ProSoft’s industrial standards, the MVI56-BAS is suited to control cabinets and process environments where continuous duty is essential. For facilities running ControlLogix systems with custom communication requirements, the MVI56-BAS offers a flexible, well-established solution that reduces controller load.

Advantages and Features

Custom programming: BASIC interpreter enables tailored communication and data-processing routines.
Offloads the controller: Custom tasks run on the module, reducing main processor load.
ControlLogix integration: Installs directly into the chassis with backplane communication.
Serial communication support: Suited to legacy and custom serial protocols.
Proven ProSoft platform: Part of ProSoft’s widely used communication module family.
Serviceability: Module replacement is straightforward within the chassis.

Application Cases and Fields

The MVI56-BAS is used in applications including:

Legacy device integration: Connecting older serial equipment to ControlLogix systems.
Custom protocol handling: Implementing non-standard communication schemes.
Data processing: Running computational routines outside the main controller scan.
Manufacturing lines: Communication and data handling in production systems.
Process industries: Integration of specialized field devices.

Comparison with Competing Products

Compared with using native ControlLogix communication modules, the ProSoft MVI56-BAS offers greater flexibility for custom routines and legacy protocol handling. Competing products may provide fixed-protocol support but often lack programmable logic capability on the module itself. For applications with unusual communication requirements, the MVI56-BAS reduces engineering effort and controller load.

Selection Suggestions

Confirm compatibility with your ControlLogix chassis and firmware revision.
Verify the serial port count and interface types match your application.
Review the programming requirements for your custom routines.
Consider stocking a spare MVI56-BAS for critical installations.
Consult ProSoft documentation for configuration and programming details.

Precautions

Install or replace the module only with chassis power removed per procedures.
Observe ESD precautions when handling the module.
Follow ProSoft’s configuration and programming guidelines.
Verify backplane communication and routine behavior after installation.
Use only genuine ProSoft parts to preserve system integrity and warranty.
