The PLX51-HART-4O allows users to easily connect their existing HART

compatible field devices to EtherNet/IP™, Modbus® TCP/IP, and DNP3

Ethernet networks. The module can be used to connect HART Output

devices such as valve positioners into an Ethernet network.

The PLX51-HART-4O supports up to 4 channels of HART communication,

as well as Analog 4-20 mA signals for real-time process variables to/from

the HART-compatible device.

Features

♦ Support for point-to-point networks with EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP/IP

or DNP3 (TCP/IP and UDP) protocols

♦ Support for point to multipoint networks with EtherNet/IP and Modbus

TCP/IP protocols

♦ Support for automatic configuration in Multidrop mode for Logix Controllers

♦ Support for PCCC (AB-ETH) protocol, allowing legacy controllers to easily

interface to HART modules

♦ Support for Factory Talk View for point to point and multidrop HART devices

♦ EtherNet/IP enables a HART device to be added directly into a Rockwell

Automation® Logix I/O tree

♦ Modbus TCP/IP enables a HART field device to be viewed as a Modbus

Slave device

♦ DNP3 converts a HART field device into a DNP3 Outstation (slave) supporting

Secure Authentication

♦ DTM (Device Type Manager) / HART Pass-through is available for simplifying

device configuration and management using an FDT frame

♦ Built-in Web server provides detailed diagnostics of system configuration and

operation as well as field device diagnostics

♦ Can be used in a redundant ControlLogix® controller system

♦ Advanced Diagnostics automatically extracted and written to Logix Tags
