Using the MVI56-PDPMV1 Add-On Instruction

Note: This section applies only for applications with ControlLogix firmware version 16 or higher.
For earlier firmware versions, refer to Using the MVI56-PDPMV1 Sample Ladder Logic (page 23).


The Add-On Instruction (AOI) is supplied already installed as part of a complete

.ACD program file and also as an .L5X ladder import file that can be imported

into an existing or new application. Importing the AOI reduces module setup time

and simplifies your application logic. The .L5X file automatically imports the

following components into an application:
 User-defined data types
 Controller tags and tag arrays
 Add-On Instruction logic
 Ladder rung required to call the Add-On Instruction
This section will show the procedure on how to import the Add-On Instruction into

your existing ladder for both module modes (LEGACY or FLEX).

1.7.1 LEGACY Sample Add-On Instruction Import Procedure

Note: This section applies only if your application meets one or more of the following conditions:
 MVI56-PDPMV1 module firmware version 0.30
 MVI56-PDPMV1 module firmware version 1.21 (or later) AND configured in LEGACY mode
