The 90-70 series modules with catalog number IC697BEM713 are bus transmitter modules. This module is used to install the local bus of the Centra processing unit (CPU), allowing additional I/O and option modules to be installed into the system. The bus transmitter module is capable of handling up to seven (7) bus receiver modules with directory number IC697BEM711. When implementing local bus expansion, the maximum distance from the IC697BEM713 bus transmitter module (BEM) to the last IC697BEM711 bus receiver module (BRM) must not exceed 50 feet. In addition, the last BRM must have a terminal resistor with directory number IC697ACC702 installed to close the Daisy chain network. The terminal resistor is connected to the expansion port output of the last BRM. The IC697BEM713 is equipped with one (1) parallel port for programming and configuration functions and one (1) expansion port for connecting to the first BRM of the network. The appropriate programming software to configure the Settings and download the configuration to the IC697BEM713 is the MS-DOS or Windows Programming software Configuration feature. The IC697BEM713 occupies a single slot in the chassis and, specifically, is installed in any slot other than slot 1, which is reserved for the 90-30 series CPU. The module has A current consumption of 1.4 A, an effective data rate of 500 KB/ s, and a duration of 20-30 seconds for storing 16KB programs. The module is designed to comply with ME standard C.1. The compatible expansion cable used with this transmitter module is the IC600WD005A (5 ft (1.5m) cable; IC600WD010A (10 ft (3 m) cable; IC600WD025A (25 ft (7.5 m) cable and IC600WD050A (50 ft (15 m)) cable.
The GE Fanuc IC697BEM713 module is a bus transmitter module of the 90-70 series. It allows expansion from the host rack when additional modules are needed in the system. The IC697BEM713 module allows expansion to an additional seven IC697 PLC racks. The IC697BEM713 module also provides a parallel interface that can be used by programming devices. The IC697BEM713 module occupies a slot in the rack. There are 2 connectors on the IC697BEM713 module: the top connector is used to connect to the programming device, and the bottom connector allows Daisy chain configuration to the expansion rack via the bus receiver module. The IC697BEM713 module requires 5 volts DC from the system backplane and consumes 1.4 amps of current. The specifications for the programmer interface include a data rate of 500 kilobits per second and a maximum support cable length of 50 feet. Specifications for the expansion interface also include a data rate of 500 kilobits per second and a maximum cable length of 50 feet. The IC697BEM713 module can be installed in any slot in the mainframe, except slot 1 reserved for the CPU. Before installing a module, power off the rack. After the module is installed in the rack, power on the rack. Three green leds are provided on the module to display status information. When the CPU software completes the power-on configuration of the IC697BEM713 module and polls all the extension racks in the system, the LED at the very top lights up. The bottom LED shows the status of the expansion bus. When the PLC and the programmer communicate, the middle LED lights up or flashes.
