The IC697CMM741 interface device is manufactured by GE Fanuc in its 90-70 series product line and is used as an interface for TCP/IP Ethernet LAN devices or GE 90-70 MMS series devices. The IC697CMM741 interface is also an Ethernet controller, which can connect the PLC directly to a LAN like IEEE 802.3CSMA /CD LAN. Manufactured for GE series 90-70 IC 697 programmable controllers, the Ethernet controller can be safely installed by simply installing 1 slot in the PLC rack. The software used by the IC697CMM741 Ethernet controller can be easily loaded or upgraded with RAM, and the controller can retain its software for at least 6 months after power failure. The software it can use includes TCP/IP and MMS/OSI communication software, complete Windows and DOS programming and communication software, and software for full diagnostics and site management.
GE Series 90-70 IC697CMM741 Ethernet controllers and interfaces can be connected to the transceiver device via a user-supplied transceiver cable or an AUI (Connection Unit Interface) cable via its standard Type D connector with 15 pins. Cables and transceivers are how an Ethernet controller connects to an Ethernet LAN. Users can use its 3 leds to monitor the status of the controller interface. The RAM in the IC697CMM741 Ethernet controller uses the battery as a backup battery, and the RAM stores all communication software. The controller and interface device also have ROM and firmware for storing the basic functions, configuration software, and diagnostic functions for their use.
