1.3 Installing ProSoft Configuration Builder Software
You must install the ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) software to configure
the module. You can always get the newest version of ProSoft Configuration
Builder from the ProSoft Technology website.
Installing ProSoft Configuration Builder from the ProSoft website
1 Open your web browser and navigate to http://www.prosoft-
technology.com/pcb
2 Click the DOWNLOAD HERE link to download the latest version of ProSoft
Configuration Builder.
3 Choose SAVE or SAVE FILE when prompted.
4 Save the file to your Windows Desktop, so that you can find it easily when
you have finished downloading.
5 When the download is complete, locate and open the file, and then follow the
instructions on your screen to install the program.
1.4 Setting Jumpers
The Setup Jumper acts as "write protection" for the module’s flash memory. In
"write protected" mode, the Setup pins are not connected, and the module’s
firmware cannot be overwritten. Do not jumper the Setup pins together unless
you are directed to do so by ProSoft Technical Support.
The following illustration shows the MVI56E-GEC jumper configuration.
Note: If you are installing the module in a remote rack, you may prefer to leave the Setup pins
jumpered. That way, you can update the module’s firmware without requiring physical access to
the module.

User Manual Generic ASCII Ethernet Communication Module
Page 8 of 80 ProSoft Technology, Inc.
1.5 Installing the Module in the Rack
If you have not already installed and configured your ControlLogix processor and
power supply, please do so before installing the MVI56E-GEC module. Refer to
your Rockwell Automation product documentation for installation instructions.
Warning: You must follow all safety instructions when installing this or any other electronic
devices. Failure to follow safety procedures could result in damage to hardware or data, or even
serious injury or death to personnel. Refer to the documentation for each device you plan to
connect to verify that suitable safety procedures are in place before installing or servicing the
device.
After you have checked the placement of the jumpers, insert MVI56E-GEC into
the ControlLogix chassis. Use the same technique recommended by Rockwell
Automation to remove and install ControlLogix modules.
Warning: When you insert or remove the module while backplane power is on, an electrical arc
can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations. Verify that power is
removed or the area is non-hazardous before proceeding. Repeated electrical arcing causes
excessive wear to contacts on both the module and its mating connector. Worn contacts may
create electrical resistance that can affect module operation.
1 Turn power OFF.
2 Align the module with the top and bottom guides, and slide it into the rack
until the module is firmly against the backplane connector.
3 With a firm but steady push, snap the module into place.
4 Check that the holding clips on the top and bottom of the module are securely
in the locking holes of the rack.
5 Make a note of the slot location. You must identify the slot in which the
module is installed in order for the sample program to work correctly. Slot
numbers are identified on the green circuit board (backplane) of the
ControlLogix rack.
6 Turn power ON.

1.6 Opening the Sample Ladder Logic
The sample program for your MVI56E-GEC module includes custom tags, data
types and ladder logic for data I/O and status monitoring. For most applications,
you can run the sample ladder program without modification, or, for advanced
applications, you can incorporate the sample program into your existing
application.
Please download the latest MVI56E-GEC ladder logic file from:
www.prosoft-technology.com.
1.6.1 Determining the Firmware Version of Your Processor
Important: The RSLinx service must be installed and running on your computer in order for Studio
5000 Logix Designer to communicate with the processor. Refer to your RSLinx and Studio 5000
Logix Designer documentation for help configuring and troubleshooting these applications.
1 Start Studio 5000 Logix Designer® and close any existing project that may be
loaded.
2 Open the COMMUNICATIONS menu and choose GO ONLINE. Studio 5000 Logix
Designer will establish communication with the processor. This may take a
few moments.
3 When Studio 5000 Logix Designer has established communication with the
processor, the Connected To Go Online dialog box will open.

Start Here MVI56E-GEC ♦ ControlLogix Platform
User Manual Generic ASCII Ethernet Communication Module
Page 10 of 80 ProSoft Technology, Inc.
4 On the Connected To Go Online dialog box, click the GENERAL tab. This tab
shows information about the processor, including the Revision (firmware)
version. In the following illustration, the firmware version is 17.2.
1.6.2 Selecting the Slot Number for the Module
This sample application is for a module installed in Slot 1 in a ControlLogix rack.
The ladder logic uses the slot number to identify the module. If you are installing
the module in a different slot, you must update the ladder logic so that program
tags and variables are correct, and do not conflict with other modules in the rack.
Changing the slot number
1 In the Controller Organization list, select the module and then click the right
mouse button to open a shortcut menu.
2 On the shortcut menu, choose PROPERTIES. This action opens the Module
Properties dialog box.
3 In the Slot field, adjust the slot location and then click OK.
Studio 5000 Logix Designer will automatically apply the slot number change to all
tags, variables and ladder logic rungs that use the MVI56E-GEC slot number for
computation.

1.7 Downloading the Sample Program to the Processor
Note: The key switch on the front of the ControlLogix processor must be in the REM or PROG
position.
1 If you are not already online with the processor, open the Communications
menu, and then choose DOWNLOAD.Studio 5000 Logix Designer will
establish communication with the processor.
2 When communication is established, Studio 5000 Logix Designer will open a
confirmation dialog box. Click the DOWNLOAD button to transfer the sample
program to the processor.
3 Studio 5000 Logix Designer will compile the program and transfer it to the
processor. This process may take a few minutes.
4 When the download is complete, Studio 5000 Logix Designer will open
another confirmation dialog box. If the key switch is in the REM position, click
OK to switch the processor from PROGRAM mode to RUN mode.
Note: If you receive an error message during these steps, refer to your Studio 5000 Logix Designer
documentation to interpret and correct the error.

2.2 [Server x]
You can configure up to five servers ([Server 0] through [Server 4]). The
configuration section for each server contains the same set of parameters. You
can configure the parameters for each server to meet the requirements of your
application.
2.2.1 Enabled
Yes or No
This parameter determines if the server will be utilized by the module. If a value
of "Yes" is entered, the server will be used. Any other value will disable the
server.
2.2.2 Service Port Number
1 to 65535
This parameter sets the TCP/IP service port for this server. Each server can
have its own unique service port or can share the same number with other
servers.
2.2.3 Connection Timeout
0 or 5000 to 65535
This parameter specifies the number of milliseconds the server will permit the
server to be inactive after a connection is made before closing the socket. This
timeout period is reset on each read or write packet. If the parameter is set to 0,
the connection will not timeout.
2.2.4 Connection Close Type
0, 1 or 2
This coded parameter defines the personality of the server after a connection is
made. If the parameter is set to 0, the socket will only be closed when a request
from the client is received or the connection timeout is exceeded. If a value of 1
is selected, the server will close the socket after it transmits a single message. If
a value of 2 is selected, the server will close the socket after it receives a
message.
2.2.5 Swap Rx Data Bytes
Yes or No
This parameter determines if the data received by the server will have the byte
order of the data swapped. If the parameter is set to No, no byte swapping will
occur. If the parameter is set to Yes, the odd byte will be swapped with the even
byte in each word of data received.

2.2.6 Swap Tx Data Bytes
Yes or No
This parameter determines if the data to be transmitted by the module will have
the byte order of the data swapped. If the parameter is set to No, no byte
swapping will occur. If the parameter is set to Yes, the odd byte will be swapped
with the even byte in each word of data received.
