The IC693BPM200 is a Profibus master station module that is part of the 90-30 series controller platform, previously offered by GE Fanuc and now acquired by Emerson Automation. This module is an optional communication module that supports Profibus communication protocol. It comes with one (1) Profibus master port that supports communication with the Profibus network in a Daisy chain topology, and another RS232 service port that can be used to download configuration and firmware upgrades. The IC693BPM200 is a single-slot module that can be installed on CPU backboards, extensions, or remote backboards. It supports communication of up to 125 Profibus DP slaves, enabling remote I/O architectures and communication with other devices such as gateways, Hmis, SCADA, and others. For remote I/O functions, each Profibus slave station is capable of receiving 244 bytes of input data and sending 244 bytes of output data. It supports sync and freeze configurations and can be configured for all Profibus standard transfer rates from 9600 Kbaud to 12MBaud. It follows the Daisy chain topology, as the protocol is derived from the RS485 electrical standard, and both ends, especially node 1 and the last node of the network, are closed by terminal resistors. It also comes with SYS and COM status leds to describe active communication and device operation. This module is configured using CIMPLICITY Machine Edition Logic Developer version 2.6 or later. It can be used with 90-30 series cpus, such as cpus 311/313/323, 331, 341,350, 352,360, 363, 363, and 364. For most applications and control systems, the CPU version for this module is V8.00, but if you intend to use it for large-scale applications, you may need CPU version 10.60 or higher.
The GE Fanuc IC693PBM200 Profibus DP Master Station Module communication card is a solid-state communication card designed and manufactured for the GE series 90-30 programmable logic controllers. It serves as the main communication interface between the PLC and the PROFIBUS DP network, enabling the PLC to connect to the network and establish data exchange with field equipment, other controllers, communication platforms and many other types of equipment. Up to 125 PROFIBUS DP slave station units can be controlled from a single Fanuc PLC with this module, which is capable of receiving 244 bytes of input from the network and sending 244 bytes of output commands in response. In order to configure the IC693PBM200 GE Fanuc Profibus DP Master module communication card, users should have a licensed version 2.6 or later of the Proficy Machine Edition Logic Developer software. This Profibus DP master station module card can be installed in any slot of the GE Fanuc 90-30 baseplate except slot 1, which is usually reserved for the power module. The IC693PBM200 GE Fanuc Profibus DP master station module communication card is capable of operating at any standard data rate (9.6K, 19.2K, 93.75K, 187.5K, 500K, 1.5M, 3M, 6M and 12M baud rates). The operating temperature range of the card is 0 ° C to 60 ° C. When the temperature in the working environment exceeds these extremes in any direction, it is important to consider the use of a climate control system for the enclosure where the PLC and communication card are to be placed.
