Specifications

Description

The GE-(GE-Fanuc) IC697CMM741 Series 90-70 Ethernet Controller Module is a member of the family of IC651 Factory LAN hardware and software products. The Factory LAND family of products provides high performance solutions for interconnecting automation controllers and for integrating them into multi-vendor networks

The module plugs into a single in an IC697 PLC rack and provides an 802.3-standard 15-pin D-connector for attachment of a user-supplied AUI (Attachment Unit Interface) or transceiver cable. The AUI cable connects to a user-supplied transceiver that is directly connected to the 10Μbps Ethernet network cable. The transceiver must be 802.3-compatible and must have the SQE option enabled.

Transceivers are commercially available to operate on a variety of 10Μbps media including thickwire coaxial cable (10Base5), ThinWire coaxial cable (10Base2), twisted pair (10BaseT), fiber optic (10BaseF), and broadband cable (10Broad36).

Applications

Centralized Management Large-Scale Chemical Plants: Connect distributed tank farms to the central control room. Analysis: Utilizes long-distance Ethernet transmission to aggregate data from each production unit to a higher-level computer for monitoring.

Digitalized Steel and Metallurgical Plants: Used for Manufacturing Execution System (MES) networking. Analysis: Uploads real-time production and energy consumption data from the rolling mill to the plant management level, achieving transparent production.

Urban Water Supply and Wastewater Treatment Plants: Manages communication between remote pumping stations and the dispatch center. Analysis: Supports standard TCP/IP protocol, facilitating cross-regional networking via fiber optic or wireless bridging.

Automotive and Heavy Equipment Assembly Plants: Connects multi-station robots to the main control PLC. Analysis: Supports simultaneous access from multiple clients, facilitating remote debugging and data collection by engineers.

FAQ

Q: What is an IC697CMM741?
A: The IC697CMM741 is an Ethernet Controller from the GE Fanuc 90-70 Series.

Q: What is an Ethernet Controller IC697CMM741?
A: The Ethernet Controller is a member of the family of IC651 Factory LAN hardware and software products.

Q: What does this family of products do?
A: They provide high performance solutions for interconnecting automation controllers and for integrating them into multi-vendor networks.

Q: What kind of module is IC697CMM741?
A: IC697CMM741 is a single-slot module that is inserted directly into the IC697 CPU rack.

Q: How is connection made to the Ethernet LAN?
A: It is made via a transceiver cable to an external transceiver. The transceiver and cable are provided by the user. The transceiver is attached directly to the IEEE 802.3 network cable.

Q: How many LEDs does IC697CMM741 have?
A: This controller has 3 LEDs for indication of the status of the interface.

Q: Where does IC697CMM741 provide basic functions?
A: It provides basic functions in the firmware or Read Only Memory (ROM). This firmware includes a self-test diagnostic and special software that allows for configuration and testing of your interface in the PLC and on the Ethernet LAN. It also allows you to load the communications software into RAM either from the GSM (serially or over the network) or from an MS-DOS or Windows OSI-Ethernet Programmer station.
