I have a ControlLogix system that has a few Flex I/O over contorlnet. I want to setup a device that requires ASCII data to be sent to it. Unfortunately it's too far for me to connect to the actual Serial port on the processor, so I want to use the Flex I/O. Allen Bradley doesn't sell ASCII modules for the Flex I/O.
Searching around, I found one from Prosoft Technology.

It says it is compatible with 1794 and that it can be in any slot. Does anyone have experience with these, how well they work (maybe ease of use?) and maybe any alternatives?
I am using the 1794-ACN15
