Technical Specifications

Description

The GE IC693CMM311 enables effective communication for Series 90-30 PLC systems. With its two communication ports, Port 1 supports RS232, while Port 2 offers flexibility with RS232, RS422, and RS485 configurations. This module supports multiple communication protocols, including CCM, RTU, and SNP, ensuring reliable data exchange across various applications.

Users can configure each port with different protocols. For instance, both ports can use CCM, or one port can use RTU while the other uses CCM. Similarly, RTU and SNP protocols can be mixed and matched between the two ports, providing a highly customizable solution.

With transmission speeds ranging from 300 baud to 19200 baud, the module adapts to varying network requirements. The IC693CMM311 also features 25-pin D-shell connectors for secure, stable connections. Additionally, it includes status LED indicators that monitor the module’s operating state.

When using the IC693CMM311, users can leverage its push-to-restart feature to re-initiate communication without restarting the entire system. This ensures minimal downtime, which is critical for continuous operations in industrial automation systems.

The IC693CMM311 connects seamlessly with Series 90-30 modular CPUs, and the Wye Cable (IC693CBL305) provides a reliable connection solution. This module is ideal for applications that demand flexible communication and high reliability.
