Information About IC693CMM321
The GE Fanuc IC693CMM321 is an Ethernet Interface Module designed to provide Series 90-30 PLC systems with full communication access to Ethernet LAN networks. Using an AAUI cable and an external transceiver, the module connects PLCs to hosts, supervisory systems, and other controllers operating over TCP/IP. With both client and server capabilities, it enables flexible communication workflows—allowing the module to initiate data requests when acting as a client or respond to incoming requests in server mode. The COMMREQ function block plays a central role in this communication, enabling users to initiate transfers, send messages, and coordinate network activity from ladder logic. Supporting up to 16 simultaneous server connections, the IC693CMM321 is suitable for complex industrial communication environments requiring high connectivity. Though it cannot interface with Hand-Held Programmers from GE Series 90-30, 20, or Micro, it installs easily into existing Series 90-30 systems, with the option to mount one or two modules per baseplate. A multifunction restart button, protected behind the front door, provides additional diagnostic and maintenance capabilities.
Key Features:
- Ethernet LAN Connectivity: Enables Series 90-30 PLCs to communicate across industrial TCP/IP networks.
- Dual Client/Server Operation: Acts as a data-requesting client or as a server responding to other PLCs or hosts.
- COMMREQ Integration: Allows ladder logic to control Ethernet messaging, data transfer, and device coordination.
- Multi-Device Networking: Supports up to 16 concurrent server connections for extensive network communication.
- External Transceiver Support: Connects via AAUI port using a compatible Ethernet transceiver for flexible wiring.
- Diagnostic Restart Button: Provides restart, LED test, reload, and maintenance utility access for troubleshooting.
- Compatibility with Series 90-30 Systems: Easy installation with support for one or two modules on a single baseplate.
- Enhanced Communication Capability: Supports TCP/IP, CCM, RTU, and SNP protocols for broad industrial integration.
The IC693CMM321 delivers the reliability and precision required for Ethernet-based communication, PLC networking, and industrial data exchange within GE Fanuc Series 90-30 automation systems.
