Product Name:

PROSOFT+5302-MBP-MCM4 Module

Product Description:

The PROSOFT+5302-MBP-MCM4 is a communication interface module designed to facilitate the integration of Modbus-based devices and networks with Allen-Bradley PLC systems. This module typically serves as a bridge between different types of industrial automation protocols, allowing seamless data transfer and control.

The module supports Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP communication protocols, enabling PLCs or other industrial controllers to connect with Modbus devices. The MCM4 in the name likely signifies a series or type of product tailored for specific configurations or features, but specifics can vary.

Product Parameters / Specifications:

• Communication Protocols Supported:
  • Modbus RTU (over serial communication)
  • Modbus TCP (over Ethernet networks)
• Supported Modbus Devices:
  • Modbus RTU-compatible devices (e.g., sensors, actuators)
  • Modbus TCP-compatible devices (e.g., remote I/O, controllers)
• Input/Output Channels:
  • Typically used for integration with multiple I/O points on a Modbus network, but the exact I/O configurations depend on the specific module model.
• Mounting Type:
  • Typically designed for DIN rail mounting (standard for industrial automation equipment).
• Power Supply:
  • Typically operates with a standard industrial DC power supply (e.g., 24V DC).
• Ethernet Connection:
  • Depending on the model, Ethernet ports may support 10/100 Mbps connectivity.
• Data Transfer Rate:
  • Modbus RTU: 9600, 19200, 38400, 115200 baud rates (common options for serial communication)
  • Modbus TCP: 10/100 Mbps
• Environmental Specifications:
  • Operating Temperature: Typically ranges from -40°C to 70°C (-40°F to 158°F) to suit industrial environments.
  • Humidity: Designed to withstand typical industrial humidity levels (5% to 95%, non-condensing).
• LED Indicators:
  • Often equipped with LEDs for status indication (e.g., power, communication, and fault indicators).
• Communication Ports:
  • Serial port (RS-485 or RS-232) for Modbus RTU.
  • Ethernet port (RJ45) for Modbus TCP.
• Compliance & Standards:
  • CE, UL, and other industrial certifications may apply depending on the region and application.

Product Use:

The PROSOFT+5302-MBP-MCM4 module is typically used in the following applications:

1. Industrial Automation:
   • Bridging communication between Allen-Bradley PLC systems and Modbus-based devices, enabling control and monitoring of remote equipment.
2. SCADA Systems:
   • Facilitating data exchange between Modbus field devices (sensors, meters, etc.) and SCADA systems for process monitoring and control.
3. Remote I/O Integration:
   • Integrating remote I/O devices that use Modbus RTU or Modbus TCP protocols into a central PLC-based system.
4. Energy Management:
   • Connecting energy meters or other monitoring devices that use Modbus for integration into larger automation systems for energy consumption tracking and management.
5. Machine Control:
   • Used in systems where different machines or controllers communicate using Modbus, allowing for coordinated control and data acquisition.
