5.1 Product Specifications
The MVI69 Generic ASCII Serial Interface Module is a fast and easy way to add
two fully configurable ASCII communication ports to the CompactLogix or
MicroLogix platform without consuming the front port of the processor, or using
valuable processing time.
The MVI69-GSC module is a single slot, backplane compatible solution for the
CompactLogix or MicroLogix platform. This module has two powerful and fully
configurable ASCII communication ports, each supporting the sending and
receiving of large ASCII character strings. With the implementation of some
supporting ladder logic in the processor, the many different devices supporting
ASCII communications can be integrated into the CompactLogix or MicroLogix
platform.
