GE FANUC IC697BEM731 , 90-70 Series , Single Channel Controller
Product Description
IC697BEM731 is a Bus Controller Module (BCM) manufactured by GE Fanuc for the 90-70 Series. IC697BEM731 is designed specifically for the Genius I/O handheld monitor IC660/IC661. The IC697BEM731 module is available as a single channel controller; thus it only occupies a single handheld monitor (IC66*) PLC slot. This BCM scans IC66* input/output blocks asynchronously; consequently, I/O data is transferred to the CPU once per scan over the backplate of the IC697 PLC rack. The IC697BEM731 BCM is also charged with the task of supporting directed communication originating from a PLC CPU communication service request. In addition, it may be configured to perform global communications. The IC697BEM731 can only be configured by the MS DOS or Windows programming software configuration function.
Additional features of the IC697BEM731 include 30 drops per channel, IC66* or IC661 I/O diagnostics, support of redundant blocks, cables, and CPUs, LAN communications, CPU soft configuration, and an alarm processor function. Before installing, refer to the applicable PLC installation manual. The power should be OFF before starting. Install the rack as instructed, and turn power ON. If done correctly, the module will power up with a corresponding blinking LED. The middle LED will emit ON when configuration is received from the CPU and the bus operation verified. The LED on the bottom is always OFF.
The GE Fanuc IC697BEM731 module is a BCM or bus controller module that is part of the Series 90-70 product line and that is intended to be used as a bus controller in the Series 90-70 PLCs. This controller module only weighs 2 pounds. It also only has 1 I/O channel. The IC697BEM731 bus controller module can be installed in just 1 slot on the PLC rack and it can be configured with configuration software that is Windows-based. The IC697BEM731 bus controller module operates by scanning all the I/O in the PLC serially and then transferring all of the I/O data to the backplane once the scanning process has been completed. It can also handle peer to peer data transfers.
The GE Fanuc Series 90-70 IC697BEM731 bus controller module can use LANs to connect to other bus controller modules and PCIMs, and it will act as the communication node for these devices and the LAN. It has a default Baud rate of 153.5 kBaud. The IC697BEM731 bus controller module can be configured to handle global communication applications.
This module should only be installed in the Series 90-70 PLC system when the power is off in order to avoid component damage or serious injuries. It has 1 serial port which is an HHM or handheld monitor port that allows it to connect to a monitor that the users can hold in their hands which will give them real-time visual updates about the bus controller module, its applications, and any faults or errors that may occur in the system.
