PROSOFT |MVI56-LTQ |PLC Module

【Seamless LonTalk Integration】

The Prosoft MVI56-LTQ is a high-performance LonTalk network interface module designed specifically for the Rockwell Automation ControlLogix platform. It acts as a critical gateway, allowing Allen-Bradley PLCs to communicate seamlessly with LonWorks-based devices often found in Building Management Systems (BMS), HVAC, and industrial automation networks. As a trusted worldwide supplier for Prosoft communication modules, we specialize in sourcing these hard-to-find interface cards to keep your legacy systems operational.

【Why Choose the MVI56-LTQ?】

• Direct Integration: Plugs directly into the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix backplane, appearing to the processor as a standard I/O module.

• Dual-Protocol Support: Efficiently bridges LonTalk networks with Rockwell Automation logic, supporting modernization without replacing entire network infrastructures.

• Reliability: Built for industrial environments, ensuring a stable link between process automation and facility management systems.

【Inventory Selection & Compatibility Strategy】

Selecting the correct communication protocol is vital for PLC integration. Based on our current inventory of Prosoft MVI56 modules, here is a functional comparison to help your procurement team find the exact match:

【Industry Application Scenarios】

The Prosoft MVI56-LTQ serves as a vital bridge in complex industrial and facility environments. By enabling LonTalk communication on the ControlLogix platform, it is commonly deployed in the following scenarios:

• Smart Building Management Systems (BMS): Integrating large-scale HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning), lighting control, and fire safety systems into a centralized Allen-Bradley PLC architecture for unified monitoring and control.

• Infrastructure & Public Utilities: Used in tunnel lighting, airport baggage handling, and wastewater treatment plants where LonWorks-based field devices need to report data to a high-level SCADA system via ControlLogix.

• Facility Automation & Energy Management: Connecting smart power meters and environmental sensors to the PLC to optimize energy consumption and monitor real-time facility status.

• Legacy System Modernization: Acts as a critical spare part for older industrial networks (Echelon LonWorks) that are being integrated into modern Rockwell Automation infrastructures without the need for a full system overhaul.

【FAQ for Procurement & Maintenance】

Q: The MVI56-LTQ is often listed as "Discontinued." Do you have actual units in stock?

A: Yes. We specialize in discontinued and hard-to-find Prosoft modules. Our current inventory includes MVI56-LTQ in stock ready to ship today. We help middlemen and end-users bypass the long lead times of the OEM's "Obsolete" list.

Q: Can you help with the configuration files or LonWorks binding?

A: We are a hardware trader and spare parts specialist, not a systems integrator. We provide the physical module and can share the technical documentation/manuals we have on file. For specific network binding and PLC ladder logic programming, we strongly suggest consulting a certified automation engineer.

Q: How do I know the module is compatible with my specific ControlLogix version?

A: The MVI56-LTQ is compatible with most standard ControlLogix chassis. However, firmware versions can vary. Before purchasing, we recommend your technical team verify the firmware revision required. We can provide high-resolution photos of our unit's labels to help you cross-reference.
