The MVI69E-LDM is a development module created by ProSoft Technology. This module has been created as a Linux application development module. The main reason to use the ProSoft Technology MVI69E-LDM development module is to create a connection between CompactLogix Processors from Rockwell Automation and any Ethernet or serial device. The ProSoft Technology MVI69E-LDM development module operates with a current load of 500 milliamps at 5 Volts DC. It has several LED indicators that indicate the activity of the ETH, P1, P2, CFG, BP, and OK ports. It also has some environmental specifications to follow such as a rated temperature range of 0 to 60 degrees Celsius and a relative humidity of up to 95% without condensation.

The ProSoft Technology MVI69E-LDM development module features a CPU with a 400 MegaHertz ARM9 processor and Linux as its operating system. The system memory is a 64 megabytes SDRAM and the flash memory is a 256 megabytes NAND Flash. The ProSoft Technology MVI69E-LDM development module can be developed as the users desire. C/C++ applications that work with barcode scanners and terminal port emulation can be easily developed. Each package of the ProSoft Technology MVI69E-LDM development module contains an RJ45 to DB-9M cable, 2 DB9 cables to install the terminal adapter, an Ethernet Straight-Thru cable, and a null modem cable. The ProSoft Technology MVI69E-LDM development module includes 1 Ethernet port, 10/100 megabytes per second of processing speed, an RJ45 connector, activity indicators, and a crossover cable detection device. The ProSoft Technology MVI69E-LDM development module is to be located in the chassis of the Compact Logix system. Once it has been introduced, it must be aligned and the jumpers must be connected.
