Description

GE IC695ETM001
The Ethernet Interface Module, IC695ETM001, connects a PACSystems* RX3i
controller to an Ethernet network. It enables the RX3i controller to communicate
with other PACSystems equipment and with Series 90 and VersaMax
controllers. The Ethernet Interface provides TCP/IP communications with other
control systems, host computers running the Host Communications Toolkit or
programmer software, and computers running the TCP/IP version of the
programming software. These communications use the SRTP, Modbus TCP,
and Ethernet Global Data (EGD) protocols over a four-layer TCP/IP (Internet)
stack.
Features of the RX3i Ethernet Interface include:
▪ Full programming and configuration services. Firmware upgrades from the
RX3i CPU using the WinLoader software utility, which is supplied with
updates to the Ethernet Interface software.
▪ Periodic data exchange using Ethernet Global Data (EGD).
▪ EGD Commands to read and write controller and EGD exchange memory
over the network.
▪ TCP/IP communication services using SRTP.
▪ Support for SRTP Channels, Modbus/TCP Server, and Modbus/TCP Client
▪ Built-in Station Manager for on-line supervisory access to the Ethernet
Interface. Dedicated Station Manager port.
▪ Two auto-sensing 10Base T / 100Base TX RJ-45 shielded twisted-pair
Ethernet ports for direct connection to either a 10BaseT or 100BaseTX
IEEE 802.3 network without an external transceiver. There is only one
interface to the network (only one Ethernet MAC address and only one IP
address).
▪ Internal network switch with Auto negotiate, Sense, Speed, and crossover
detection.
▪ Recessed Ethernet Restart pushbutton to manually restart the Ethernet
firmware without power cycling the system.
▪ LEDs: Ethernet OK, LAN OK, Log Empty, individual port activity and speed
LEDs.
▪ Configurable stand-alone Redundant IP addressing, which allows a single IP address to be assigned to
corresponding Ethernet modules in two different controllers. The Redundant IP address is configured in addition to
the normal unique IP address of each Ethernet module. Under application logic control, only the Ethernet module in
the active unit can use the Redundant IP address.
▪ Time synchronization to SNTP Time Server on Ethernet network (when used with Release 5.00 or later CPU

module).
