This document provides information needed to develop application programs for
the MVI ADM Ethernet Serial Communication Module. The MVI suite of modules
is designed to allow devices with a serial and Ethernet port to be accessed by a
PLC. The modules and their corresponding platforms are as follows:
 MVI46: 1746 (SLC)
 MVI56: 1756 (ControlLogix)
 MVI69: 1769 (CompactLogix)
 MVI71: 1771 (PLC)
The modules are programmable to accommodate devices with unique Serial-
Ethernet protocols.
This document includes information about the available ethernet communication
software API libraries, programming information, and example code. For tools,
module configuration, serial communication software API, serial communication
programming information, and example code for both the module and the PLC,
refer to
MVI ADM Developer’s Guide.
This document assumes the reader is familiar with software development in the
16-bit DOS environment using the 'C' programming language. This document
also assumes that the reader is familiar with Rockwell Automation programmable
controllers and the PLC platform.
