{"product_id":"ge-fanuc-ic693bem331","title":"GE Fanuc IC693BEM331","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe IC693BEM331 is a Genius Bus Controller designed for the Series 90-30 PLC System by GE Fanuc. This module provides a robust interface for the Genius I\/O serial bus, allowing for the transmission and reception of control data up to 128 bytes across a maximum of 31 devices on the Genius I\/O bus. The controller requires specific configuration of input and output data lengths to align with the I\/O devices for effective data transfer. Notably, the IC693BEM331 does not integrate fault table configuration errors, which differ from the capabilities of the 90-70 Genius Bus Controller. To verify the configuration of a Genius device, users can efficiently check that the associated GBC Device Present bit is set to 1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe IC693BEM331 serves multiple applications, including facilitating Genius blocks that interface with a wide range of discrete, analog, and specialized field devices, though it cannot be controlled by GCM and GCM+ modules. It also supports Remote Drops through Series 90-70 I\/O racks via Remote I\/O Scanner modules, enabling compatibility with various discrete and analog I\/O modules, thus providing up to 128 bytes of data. Furthermore, it can integrate with Field Control I\/O Stations, which consist of up to eight Field Control modules coupled with a Bus Interface Unit (BIU), offering comprehensive I\/O scanning and intelligent processing capabilities. The module is also compatible with Genius Hand-Held Monitors (HHMs), both portable and permanently mounted, providing an efficient interface for block setup, diagnostics, and data monitoring, as well as supporting multiple host communications through Global Data and datagrams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTechnical specifications include a maximum of 31 I\/O points, a data rate of up to 128 bytes, and two LED indicators for operational status (OK) and communication status (COMM OK). The module requires less than 300 mA at +5V DC, which is supplied directly from the Series 90-30 PLC backplane, and offers an IP rating of IP 20 suitable for panel or backplane mounting. It operates effectively within a temperature range of 0 to 60 degrees Celsius (32 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit) and can handle humidity levels between 5% and 90% non-condensing. Compatible with both Series 90-30 and Series 90-70 PLCs, the IC693BEM331 is an integral component for advanced industrial automation systems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GE FANUC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46964502233324,"sku":"IC693BEM331","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0217\/1112\/6600\/files\/GE_FANUC_7285acb9-6fde-46f5-97b7-0d79eba0651a.png?v=1762701611","url":"https:\/\/www.industrialautomationco.com\/products\/ge-fanuc-ic693bem331","provider":"Industrial Automation Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
