Product Description

Description

The General Electric IC693PCM311 is a programmable coprocessor module designed for the Series 90-30 programmable logic controller platform. This module provides enhanced computing and communication capabilities to industrial automation systems, supporting both the MegaBasic and C programming languages for custom application development. It serves as a powerful interface for connecting the PLC system to various third-party and peripheral equipment.

Equipped with two independent serial communication ports accessible via a single front-panel connector, the IC693PCM311 facilitates seamless data exchange using standard protocols including Modbus RTU and GE Fanuc CCM. This flexibility allows engineers to integrate ASCII devices such as bar code readers, industrial printers, scales, and operator terminals directly into their control architecture.

Features

  • Designed for the General Electric Series 90-30 PLC platform
  • Supports MegaBasic and C programming languages for advanced data manipulation and custom control logic
  • Dual independent serial communication ports accessed via a single front-panel connector
  • Supports Modbus RTU master/slave and GE Fanuc CCM communication protocols
  • Equipped with an internal lithium battery backup secured in a faceplate-mounted clip for reliable RAM memory retention
  • Facilitates integration with ASCII peripherals, programming terminals, and bar code equipment

Applications

  • Data logging and custom ASCII protocol handling in manufacturing lines
  • Interfacing bar code readers and scales with Series 90-30 automation systems
  • Connecting legacy serial printers and operator terminals
  • Executing complex mathematical computations offloaded from the main CPU
  • Modbus RTU master/slave communications network expansion
