The MVI56-MCM is our general purpose Modbus serial (RTU and ASCII are supported) master/slave solution for ControlLogix, and is the preferred choice when used in the local chassis with the controller, or in a remote chassis via Ethernet.
The MVI56-MCMR communicates across the backplane to the remote chassis using smaller I/O blocks and is intended for ControlNet applications. This reduced I/O size makes the MVI56-MCMR module easier to schedule in RSNetworx for ControlNet and will have less impact on the other ControlNet I/O.
