GE FANUC IC697CMM741 ， Ethernet Programmable Controller In The 90-70 Series

GE FANUC IC697CMM741 , Ethernet Programmable Controller In The 90-70 Series

Product Description

The IC697CMM741 is an ethernet programmable controller in the 90-70 series. The IC697CMM741 controller is a member of the IC651 Factory LAN hardware and software product family. This group offers high performance solutions for interconnecting automation controllers. The IC697CMM741 controller is designed to be plugged into one slot in the IC697 PLC rack. The IC697CMM741 controller allows direct PLC attachment to IEEE 802.3 CSMA/CD LAN. It is equipped with a standard 15-pin AUI port connection and is designed for IC697 controllers. An AUI or transceiver cable can be supplied by the user. It uses a single slot in the PLC rack, and software is easy to load and/or upgrade. Additionally, software is saved through power outages for at least six months.
 

When installing the IC697CMM741 controller into the PLC rack, power should be turned OFF from the rack. Connect the battery with the front cover front-facing and the hinge to the right. The batter cable’s tab should face away from the board’s surface. Once the battery is connected to one of the connectors, simply press down to lock. Insert the controller into the appropriate slot (generally the first slot to the right of the CPU or the BTM. Do not force the board when locking. It is important to note that the Ethernet controller will not function correctly if there are empty slots to its left. CAUTION: The green ground wire must be securely fastened to the chassis of the rack, and the rack must be grounded to ensure the LAN’s functionality.

About IC697CMM741

The IC697CMM741 interface device is manufactured by GE Fanuc in its Series 90-70 product line to be an interface for TCP/IP Ethernet LAN devices or for GE Series 90-70 MMS devices. The IC697CMM741 interface is also an Ethernet controller, and it can attach PLCs directly to a LAN like the IEEE 802.3 CSMA/CD LAN. This Ethernet controller is made for the GE Series 90-70 IC 697 programmable controllers and it only needs 1 slot in the PLC rack to be mounted securely. The software that the IC697CMM741 Ethernet controller uses can be loaded or upgraded easily through the RAM, and the controller can retain its software after a power outage for 6 months minimum. The software that it can use includes the TCP/IP and MMS/OSI communications software, the complete Windows and DOS programming and communication software, and software that is made for comprehensive diagnostics and station management.

The GE Series 90-70 IC697CMM741 Ethernet controller and interface can connect to a transceiver device through either a user-supplied transceiver cable or an AUI (Attachment Unit Interface) cable through its standard D-type connector that has 15 pins. The cable and transceiver are how the Ethernet controller makes its connection to the Ethernet LAN. The users can monitor the status of the controller’s interface with its 3 LEDs. The RAM in the IC697CMM741 Ethernet controller uses a battery for backup and the RAM stores all the communication software. This controller and interface device also has ROM and firmware that store the basic functions, configuration software, and diagnostics features that it uses.
