About IC693PBM201

The IC693PBM201 module is a communication module manufactured by GE Fanuc. It operates as a communication module for Programmable Logic Controllers or PLCs from the GE Fanuc Series 90-30 product line. Every GE Fanuc Series 90-30 PLC comprises several components that are assembled by the users and that can be custom-tailored to the needs of many different applications. Communication modules like the IC693PBM201 communication module allow the host PLC to communicate with other PLCs or with other equipment that is located nearby in large-scale applications. The IC693PBM201 communication module is solid-state equipment and it is also a single-slot module that only needs 1 slot in a baseplate for installation. It can be installed on a 5-slot or 10-slot baseplate in its host GE Fanuc PLC.

The GE Fanuc IC693PBM201 Series 90-30 communication module is compatible with CPU baseplates, expansion baseplates, or remote baseplates in a GE Fanuc PLC. However, it should not be installed in slot 1 of any baseplate, because slot 1 is usually reserved for a power supply module, and every baseplate in the PLC system needs to have its own power supply module in order to operate. The IC693PBM201 communication module is designed to support standard data communication rates for efficient data transfers and efficient communication. It can operate safely in a temperature range between 0 and 60 degrees Celsius or 32 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit. The communication ports that the IC693PBM201 communication module is equipped with are an RS-232 service communication port and a Profibus master communication port. The RS-232 port can be used for firmware upgrades and the Profibus port connects the module and its host PLC to the Profibus network.
