IC698CMX016 VMIVME-5567-000 350-005567-000 Control memory Xchange module

Description

Product Description
The IC698CMX016 is a Control Memory Xchange module from the GE Fanuc RX7i Series. IC698CMX016 is a communication module used for the PACSystems RX7i programmable controllers. The PACSystems RX7i Controller functions to port applications from one hardware environment to another. The communication modules that are easily installed in these modules accessorise the distribution of input-output and control. An array of configurations and protocols are supported by these communication modules. One such module is the IC698CMX016 that is a Control Memory Xchange Module.

The IC698CMX016 facilitates the transfer of information between devices and PLCs. This transmission is carried out on a network of 2.12 gigabaud fibre optic wires. This network can host 256 nodes that are all congruous with 5565 devices. The network uses a reflective memory technology. These nodes are connected to one another forming a daisy loop pattern so that the receiver of each node is connected to the transmitter. This connectivity ensures that any change in status communicated to one node is relayed without delay to all the other nodes.

This control memory Xchange module has an effective data rate of 2.12 gigabaud in addition to 16 megabytes of reflective memory to store and process data. The IC698CMX016 has data a transfer rate that varies from 6.2 megabytes per second to 3.2 megabytes per second, depending on the density of redundant information. The module’s access time varies between 400 nanoseconds and 200 nanoseconds. The IC698CMX016 is installed using a 62.5-micron core LC type connector. The IC698CMX016 hosts 5-volt buses that require a minimum current of 1.2 amperes to function.

The IC698CMX016 Module is a reflective memory module that comes from the RX7i PACSystems by GE Fanuc Automation. This module provides a high communications exchange rate between CPUs and different devices attached to the RX7i PLC system. This module is easy to install and easy to configure according to the standards and requirements of the RX7i PACSystems series. It can be installed in one of the RX7i PLC racks and it does not require the use of any additional protocols to operate. The effective data rate used by the GE Fanuc Automation IC698CMX016 Reflective Memory Module is 2.12 Gigabauds and it does not provide electrical isolation between its connections. The reflective memory capacity available goes up to 16 Megabytes and the maximum supported distance between nodes is up to 300 meters.

The GE Fanuc Automation IC698CMX016 Reflective Memory Module has an access time of 400 ns in the worst-case scenario and an access time of 200 ns at best. It has a transfer rate of 6.2 Megabytes per second without the use of redundant transfers and a rate of 3.2 Megabytes per second with the redundant transfers. The GE Fanuc Automation IC698CMX016 Reflective Memory Module is used with LC-type connectors and fiber-optic multimode cables (up to 1000 meters long). This module operates with a current of 1.2 Amps that is drawn from a 5 Volts Bus. The software used with this module is the Proficy Machine Edition Logic Developer software in version 4.5 or later. The module comes with 256 nodes per network and it can perform redundant transfer mode operations, which reduce the chance of data being dropped or lost from the network.
