df1 half/full duplex master/slave interface module with remote chassis

mvi56-dfcmr

the mvi56-dfcmr (df1 communication module with remote chassis) product allows allen-bradley controllogix i/o compatible processors to easily interface with other df1 protocol compatible devices. compatible devices include not only allen-bradley plc"s (which all support the df1 protocol) but also a wide assortment of end devices.

the mvi56-dfcmr module acts as a gateway between the df1 network and the allen-bradley controllogix backplane. the data transfer from the controllogix processor is asynchronous from the actions on the df1 network. a 5000-word register space in the module is used to exchange data between the processor and the df1 network.
