ProSoft Technology Releases PROFIBUS DPV1 Master Connectivity for ControlLogix
ProSoft Technology’s new PROFIBUS DPV1 Master module for Allen-Bradley’s ControlLogix platform provides a user-friendly connectivity solution for ControlLogix users to connect to PROFIBUS DP slaves. The module acts as a PROFIBUS network scanner, providing high-speed transfer of Cyclic Input and Output data between PROFIBUS devices and the ControlLogix memory table, over the backplane.

The PROFIBUS module for ControlLogix (MVI56-PDPMV1) is the ideal solution for many applications where PROFIBUS slave communication is required in a ControlLogix system. The PROFIBUS Master module has been designed to address the expanding interest in connectivity between Rockwell Automation and PROFIBUS in industrial applications such as manufacturing, packaging, water/wastewater, and oil & gas applications.
