The ProSoft MVI56-HART is a high-performance HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) multi-drop master communication module designed for the Rockwell Automation ControlLogix platform. This single-slot, in-rack solution provides seamless integration between ControlLogix processors and HART-enabled field devices such as pressure, temperature, level, and flow transmitters.
The module features four independent HART master channels, each supporting up to 15 devices in multi-drop mode, enabling communication with up to 60 HART field instruments from a single module. It operates as a HART Master, generating the Bell 202 FSK (Frequency Shift Keying) signal overlaid on the 4-20 mA analog signal for two-way digital communication.
