MVI46-ADM
The MVI46 Application Development Module is an SLC
backplane compatible module that allows user-
developed 'C' applications to operate on the SLC
platform. A great way to speed up custom ASCII data
communications or to protect a proprietary algorithm, the
ADM is a powerful tool for the SLC platform.
Features and Benefits
'C' Programmable Application Development Powerful platform for developing and running 'C'
applications on Rockwell Automation's SLC processors.
Module The MVI46-ADM module is a single slot, backplane
