ProSoft Technology MVI69 Series Technical Notes

MVI69 Full Catalog & Functionalities (SKU List)

The following SKUs represent verified, commercially documented members of the MVI69 series. Classified by protocol and function:

Serial & Multi-Protocol Communication

• MVI69-ADM: Advanced Diagnostics Module; dual-port serial protocol analyzer with pass-through capture for RS-232/RS-485 networks.
• MVI69-MNET: Modbus TCP/IP client/server; Ethernet-based Modbus master and slave on a single module.
• MVI69-MCM: Modbus RTU/ASCII master/slave; dual RS-232/RS-485 serial ports, up to 250 nodes per port.
• MVI69-MNETC: Modbus TCP/IP client-only variant; optimized for high-frequency polling of remote Modbus TCP servers.
• MVI69-DFNT: EtherNet/IP explicit messaging adapter; bridges CompactLogix to non-native EtherNet/IP devices.
• MVI69-PDPMV1: PROFIBUS DP-V1 master; supports acyclic data exchange and device diagnostics per IEC 61158.
• MVI69-PDPS: PROFIBUS DP slave; integrates CompactLogix as a DP slave device on existing PROFIBUS networks.
• MVI69-DNP: DNP3 master/slave; designed for SCADA integration in utility and water/wastewater applications.
• MVI69-DNPSNET: DNP3 over TCP/IP; extends DNP3 protocol to Ethernet-connected SCADA hosts.
• MVI69-GEC: GE SRTP Ethernet client; enables data exchange with GE Fanuc Series 90 PLCs via SRTP.
• MVI69-HART: HART master; reads process variables and device diagnostics from HART-enabled field instruments.
• MVI69-103M: IEC 60870-5-103 master; interfaces with protection relays in substation automation systems.
• MVI69-101S: IEC 60870-5-101 slave; connects CompactLogix to IEC 101 SCADA masters over serial links.
• MVI69-104S: IEC 60870-5-104 slave; IEC 104 protocol over TCP/IP for substation-to-control-center communication.
• MVI69-PNIO: PROFINET IO device; integrates CompactLogix as a PROFINET IO device on Siemens or other PROFINET controllers.
• MVI69-DFCM: DF1 master; communicates with Allen-Bradley legacy devices using DF1 full-duplex and half-duplex protocols.
• MVI69-ASCII: ASCII serial interface; handles free-format ASCII string exchange with barcode readers, scales, and instruments.

Quality Control for the MVI69 Range

MVI69 modules incorporate a proprietary backplane communication bus that requires protocol-level validation beyond standard power-on testing. DriveKNMS applies a structured test sequence to all MVI69 units prior to dispatch. Each module is bench-tested using a CompactLogix L3x test rack with the corresponding RSLogix 5000 / Studio 5000 project loaded. Backplane data transfer integrity is verified by executing live block-transfer read/write cycles and confirming register map accuracy against the module's configuration file. For communication-specific models (e.g., MVI69-PDPMV1, MVI69-MNET), protocol traffic is generated using a hardware simulator to confirm master/slave handshake, error-code handling, and timeout recovery behavior. Firmware version is recorded and cross-referenced against ProSoft's published compatibility matrix for the target CompactLogix processor revision. Units that fail any stage of the test sequence are quarantined and not returned to inventory.
