8.7.8 Modbus Plus Interface (P/N 1295-0330)

For more information on Modbus Plus, see http://eclipse.modicon.com. Technical information
on the ProSoft Technology MVI46-MBP interface which is used in the Vertex M can be found at
http://www.prosoft-technology.com.
The address of the Modbus Plus interface are set using the configuration profile utility as
described in "Configuration Utility" on page 51. Valid address values are from 1 to 64.
The ProSoft website contains the MVI46s-MBP User Manual. Of particular interest in this
manual are the general specifications on page 9 (in the pdf document) and the status LED
interpretations on page 58 (in the pdf document).
Always wait for 20 seconds after energizing the PLC or changing the address before evaluating
the LEDs.
The data map used by the Modbus Plus interface is shown in Table G-5. The interpretation of
the data is in Table G-3 and Table G-4.

8.7.9 LonWorks Interface (P/N 1295-0329)

The LonWorks protocol permits peer-to-peer communication without relying on a central
controller. Routers permit expansion of networks to include thousands of nodes. For more
information about LonWorks see
The LonWorks interface is implemented using a FieldServer Technologies model FS-B2011
bridge and other components. This is a purple box mounted below the PLC in the rear of the
Vertex M rack. The interface can be operated in either Polled Mode or Bind Mode. A service pin
is provided for node identification. LED indicators are provided for Power, Run, System Error,
and Configuration Error. Media type is FTT-10 twisted pair. Information on the FS-B2011 may
be obtained from http://www.fieldserver.com.
The LonWorks external interface has 154 network variable outputs as listed in Table G-8. The
interpretation of the data is in Table G-3 and Table G-4.
