MV194-ADM PROSOFT

The MV194-ADM is an application development module manufactured by ProSoft Technology designed for use with Rockwell Automation’s FLEX I/O processors. It allows users to develop custom C programs to expand the functionality of the FLEX I/O platform.

Here’s a breakdown of the MV194-ADM by ProSoft Technology:

• Product Name: ProSoft Technology MV194-ADM C Programmable Module

• Product Description: The MV194-ADM is a single-slot module compatible with Rockwell Automation’s FLEX I/O and Integra I/O backplanes. It provides a platform for users to write custom C programs that interact with field devices connected to the FLEX I/O system. This enables users to perform tasks beyond the standard capabilities of the FLEX I/O processors, such as complex data manipulation, custom communication protocols, and advanced process control algorithms.

• Product Features:

  • C Programming Environment: The MV194-ADM allows users to develop C programs using their preferred development tools. ProSoft may also offer specific libraries or resources to facilitate development for the FLEX I/O platform.
  • Dual Isolated Serial Ports: The module features two isolated RS-232 serial ports that can be configured for application-specific communication with various field devices. These ports can be used for protocols like Modbus ASCII, DF1, or custom protocols.
  • Standalone and Integrated Operation: The MV194-ADM can function independently for specific control tasks or integrate with existing FLEX I/O programs for more complex automation applications.

• Product Applications:

• Custom Communication Protocols: The MV194-ADM enables communication with devices that don’t use standard protocols supported by the FLEX I/O processors.

• • Advanced Data Processing: Users can develop C programs to perform complex data manipulation, filtering, and calculations beyond the capabilities of the base FLEX I/O system.
  • Process Control Logic: The module allows users to implement custom control algorithms for specific process requirements that go beyond standard FLEX I/O functionality.

Important Considerations:

• The MV194-ADM requires knowledge of C programming for development.
• ProSoft might not offer extensive technical support for custom C programs developed for the MV194-ADM.
• Depending on the application, alternative solutions like pre-programmed modules from ProSoft or other manufacturers might be available that offer similar functionalities without requiring custom development.
