The MVI69-FLN FA Control Network communication module is a single

slot solution that allows Rockwell Automation CompactLogix processors to

communicate with FL-net protocol-compatible devices. The module

implements the FL-net version 2.00 (OPCN-2) specification, as defined by

JEMA (The Japan Electrical Manufacturers Association) for the standard

FA control network. FL-net is a master-less system.

The MVI69-FLN module acts as a gateway between the FL-net network

and the CompactLogix/MicroLogix backplane. The data transfer from the

CompactLogix/MicroLogix processor is asynchronous from the actions on

the FL-net network. The module’s internal database can be used to

exchange Area 1 and Area 2 cyclic, network, and module status data

between the processor and the FL-net network.

FL-net is a peer-to-peer networking system. All FL-net devices transfer

data using two shared databases with fixed sizes. The MVI69-FLN module

accepts commands to control and monitor the data stored in these two

databases. This data is passed between the module and the

CompactLogix/MicroLogix processor over the backplane for use in

customer applications.

The MVI69L-MBS, Modbus Serial module for the CompactLogix™

series of controllers is designed for smaller applications where

port and can support either Master or Slave connectivity to interface

with a variety of devices using the Modbus Protocol.

The ILX69 PROFIBUS Slave module is an in-chassis PROFIBUS DPV1

Slave for CompactLogix, supporting cyclic PROFIBUS I/O data and

acyclic messaging. Explicit ladder logic CIP message blocks provide

slave status diagnostic data and the ability for acyclic messaging.

The ILX69 interface appears to the CompactLogix controller as a

standard I/O module allowing it to be configured via Studio/RSLogix™

5000.  The cyclic PROFIBUS I/O data can be configured in

Studio/RSLogix™ 5000. or configuration can be transferred from the

Master to the slave module. The Ethernet interface allows for remote

diagnostic and troubleshooting.  Complete program examples for simple

and quick start-up are available.

Features

 Rockwell Automation Encompass Approved

 PI Certified

 Remote diagnostics via Ethernet

 Supports DPV1 Acyclic Messaging

 Field-tested with multiple PROFIBUS Masters from multiple vendors

 AOP provided to allow for seamless integration to Studio 5000 and RSLogix 5000

The ILX69-PBM PROFIBUS DPV1 Master module provides all the

advantages of in-chassis PROFIBUS communication, such as the

inclusion of an AOI and the Autoscan features which greatly reduce your

commissioning time, and ComDTM that provides remote Ethernet

connectivity with asset management software.

With these modules, CompactLogix™ processors can easily

communicate with slave devices supporting PROFIBUS DPV0 and DPV1

protocol. The module acts as an input/output module between the

PROFIBUS network and the processor supporting complete Master

specifications according to IEC 61158.

Features

 AOI: Module communication is integrated within Studio/RSLogix 5000

using a sample Add-On Instruction (AOI), or sample ladder logic file,

reducing commissioning time.

 Autoscan: The new Autoscan feature reduces start up times and simplifies

troubleshooting by scanning the PROFIBUS network and uploading slave device

addresses and configuration information. (Reads and maps nodes automatically

to the module.)

 ComDTM: Allows remote Ethernet connectivity with Asset Management

Software significantly lowering maintenance costs.

You can configure, commission, maintain and diagnose your fieldbus devices

throughout their entire lifecycle with this comprehensive, fully integrated engineering

and maintenance environment.

 SD card slot (SD card optional) is used for storing configuration files in the event 

of a disaster. It can also be used to update the firmware of the module without the

need of a 1769 CPU.

Configurable Options

♦ User-selectable units for totalizers and flow rates on a per channel basis.

♦ Roll-over value for resettable and non-resettable totalizers for every meter channel.

♦ Process analog input units and ranges (pressure, temperature, differential pressure, density) from analog input modules and pulse

inputs from pulse/frequency input modules in a CompactLogix chassis.

♦ Fluid selection provides a choice of several liquid groups or gas measurement, using AGA, API, and/or ISO calculations.

♦ Event log reports for all security-sensitive configuration data (for example, orifice diameter) are date- and time-stamped. This data

can be saved to disk for importing into any spreadsheet or printed as a hard copy.

Modbus Interface

♦ SCADA communication is provided by the Modbus TCP/IP server and Modbus slave serial ports.

♦ Modbus table may be re-mapped as a virtual Modbus slave for user-assigned contiguous register polling by a SCADA client/master

(up to 20.000 registers).

♦ Poll remote devices (such as a Gas Chromatograph) by utilizing the Modbus Master serial port.

♦ Alarm, event, and meter archive log files may be downloaded in Enron Modbus format.
