The IC697BEM761 module is an input/output module used with the IC600 programmable logic controller. The module was designed and manufactured by GE Fanuc. It is part of the 90-70 series product line. The I/O module is located between the IC 600 and IC 697 modules. The I/O module is housed in the IC697 rack and comes with two 37-pin connectors. The lower connector of the rack receives upstream cables, and the upper connector receives downstream cables for connecting other racks. The IC697 rack is used with 128 or 256 I/O references. The module has a rated current of 1.3 amps. The IC697BEM761 module is an enhancement module. The jumper on the backplane has a rack number. The IC697 rack uses the reserved I/O address to communicate with the IC600 CPU.
The IC697BEM761 module is equipped with line terminating resistors for each interface module for smooth operation. Input/output modules can be addressed with up to 8 racks. The module uses the I/O bus to exchange data with the IC600 CPU. The IC697BEM761 module is equipped with 3 LED indicators on the front of the module. It has a "RACK" indicator to show failures in the rack, a "MODULE" to indicate failures occurring in the I/O interface module, and an "I/O CHAIN" to indicate downstream rack failures and I/O bus failures. If an application requires 2000+ points, the IC697BEM761 module can expand the capacity of the system to accommodate 2000 inputs and 2000 outputs.
