GE IC697PCM711 Single-Slot Programmable Co-Processor Module

Description of the IC697PCM711 Module

The IC697PCM711 module is a single-slot programmable coprocessor (PCU). It is designed by GE Fanuc for use in the 90-70 series product family.

About IC697PCM711

The IC697PCM711 module is a programmable coprocessor module from GE Fanuc.

This single-slot programmable coprocessor module is part of the GE 90-70 series and has a dual-task module that can be programmed to perform different functions.

The different functions that the IC697PCM711 module can be programmed to perform include real-time calculations, operator interface functions, and data functions.

The IC697PCM711 module is used to perform operations related to storage, acquisition and communication applications.

Communication between the module and the PLC CPU is achieved via the backplane and does not require application support.

The IC697PCM711 module has multiple PCMs supported by a single IC697 PLC system and can accommodate up to 512 KB of optional expansion memory.

The IC697PCM711 module operates with an extended memory daughter board. It has a base memory with a maximum capacity of 95 KB of user memory.

The Expanded Memory Daughterboard can expand the data or programme memory to 64. 128. 512 or 2586 KB.

The IC697PCM711 module requires a 1-amp power supply, which is available from a 5-volt bus. When installed, the IC697PCM711 module should be referenced to the applicable programmable controller.

Be sure to disconnect rack power and install expansion memory where needed. In addition, it is necessary to connect the battery to either of the connectors provided with the unit.

The IC697PCM711 module can be operated without the expansion memory daughter board.

It can be programmed and configured simply by connecting an IC647 or IC640 computer or using an IBM compatible PC.
