MVI56-DNP ProSoft DNP3 Serial Master/Slave Communication Module for 1756 ControlLogix

The ProSoft Technology MVI56-DNP is single-slot DNP3.0 serial communication module for Rockwell 1756 ControlLogix PAC. It supports both DNP3 Master and Slave roles over serial ports, designed for utility SCADA, RTU and IED integration in power, water & wastewater automation. It provides timestamped event buffering and bidirectional point database mapping between DNP3 serial network and ControlLogix controller tags. Technical data sourced directly from official ProSoft MVI56-DNP datasheet & user manual. Supplied by SHLY-PLC, an independent industrial automation distributor; each unit undergoes visual inspection and functional testing before shipment for retrofit and spare replacement projects.
