The following components are included with your MVI56E-61850S module, and are all
required for installation and configuration.
Important: Before beginning the installation, please verify that all of the following items are present.
If any of these components are missing, please contact ProSoft Technology Technical
Support for replacement parts. If the DVD is not present, please visit

1.3 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. The module is shipped with the Setup jumper OFF. Do not jumper the Setup
pins together unless you are directed to do so by ProSoft Technical Support (or to update
the module firmware).
The following illustration shows the MVI56E-61850S jumper configuration with the Setup
Jumper OFF.

1.4 Installing the Module in the Rack
Make sure your ControlLogix processor and power supply are installed and configured,
before installing the MVI56E-61850S 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 the MVI56E-61850S into the
ControlLogix chassis. Use the same technique recommended by Rockwell Automation to
remove and install ControlLogix modules.
You can install or remove ControlLogix system components while chassis power is applied
and the system is operating. However, please note the following warning.
Warning: When you insert or remove the module while backplane power is on, an electrical arc can occur. An
electrical arc can cause personal injury or property damage by sending an erroneous signal to the system’s
actuators. This can cause unintended machine motion or loss of process control. Electrical arcs may also cause
an explosion when they happen in a hazardous environment. Verify that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous 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 Align the module with the top and bottom guides, and then slide it into the rack until the
module is firmly against the backplane connector.
2 With a firm, steady push, snap the module into place.
3 Check that the holding clips on the top and bottom of the module are securely in the
locking holes of the rack.

4 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.
5 Turn power ON.
Note: If you insert the module improperly, the system may stop working or may behave unpredictably.

1.5 Connecting Your PC to the ControlLogix Processor
There are several ways to establish communication between your PC and the ControlLogix
processor. The following steps show how to establish communication through the serial
interface.
Note: It is not mandatory that you use the processor's serial interface. You may access the processor through
whatever network interface is available on your system. Refer to your Rockwell Automation documentation for
information on other connection methods.
1 Connect the right-angle connector end of the cable to your controller at the
communications port.
2 Connect the straight connector end of the cable to the serial port on your computer.

1.6 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, in RSLogix 5000 open the
Communications menu, and then choose DOWNLOAD. RSLogix 5000 will establish
communication with the processor. You do not have to download through the
processor's serial port, as shown here. You may download through any available
network connection.
2 When communication is established, RSLogix 5000 will open a confirmation dialog box.
Click the DOWNLOAD button to transfer the sample program to the processor.
3 RSLogix 5000 will compile the program and transfer it to the processor. This process
may take a few minutes.
4 When the download is complete, RSLogix 5000 will open another confirmation dialog
box. If the key switch is in the REM position, click OKto switch the processor from
PROGRAM mode to RUN mode.
Note: If you receive an error message during these steps, refer to your RSLogix documentation to interpret and
correct the error.
