Component type Genius Bus interface for the 90-30 series PLC
The IC693BEM331 is a bus controller module that is part of the GE Sires 90-30 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) product family. Manufactured by GE Fanuc Automation, the module is used to connect the 90-30 series PLC to the proprietary Genius I/O bus. The bus controller module is capable of communicating with Genius modules, such as discrete, analog, and dedicated field devices. It also supports communication with remote I/O branches, including 90-70 series I/O racks connected via remote I/O scanner modules, field control I/O stations via bus interface units where up to eight (8) additional field control modules are supported, Genius handheld monitors, and various hosts.
The 90-30 Series PLC system can be installed with up to eight (8) Genius bus controllers or enhanced Genius communication modules. After this configuration is implemented, the Firmware required for the 90-30 series PLC is Firmware 5.0 or later.
The IC693BEM331 has various state leds installed on the front panel of the module. These leds include OK and COM leds. OK The normal operation of the LED is stable open state. This LED remains lit after the power-on diagnosis is completed. When the bus controller module is actively communicating, the COM LED lights up steadily and blinks to indicate intermittent and incorrect bus connections.
The 90-30 PLC family compatible with the IC693BEM331 bus controller is available in IC693CPU311K, 321K, 331L or later versions and IC693CPU313, 323, 340, 341, 350, 351, 352, 360, 363 and 364 Any version of. The required firmware is version 5.0 or higher.
The GE Fanuc IC693BEM331 bus controller is capable of processing up to 128 bytes of input and output data from field devices on the bus. Configuration of the GE Fanuc IC693BEM331 bus controller is done with an additional proprietary GE Fanuc handheld monitor. Some I/O device types that can send and receive data to Series 90-30 PLCS that use the GE Fanuc IC693BEM331 bus controller as the communication interface include discrete I/O devices such as solenoid valves, motor starters, and limit switches, or analog I/O devices. Such as pressure transmitters and temperature sensors. Manufacturers recommend that the GE Fanuc IC693BEM331 bus controller be installed in a protective housing to avoid direct contact with water, excessive moisture, and extreme heat and cold. Any work that requires maintenance of the circuit should only be performed by qualified personnel, as improper handling of the equipment or any of its wiring connections can result in application process failure, property damage or serious injury.
