IC697RCM711 is a Redundancy Communications Module designed by GE Fanuc as a part of a 90-70 Series PLC. This module has the unique capability of creating shared I/O and synchronization by providing messaging and input-output exchange pathways. A redundant control system can be built with the help of this module. The IC697RCM711 communications module is most commonly utilized in systems with a Hot Standby or Enhanced Hot Standby CPU Redundancy scheme. Both of these systems have a minimum connection length of 7.5 meters, allowing them to be placed in different regions if necessary. The CPU780, CGR935, and CGR772 CPUs are capable of performing this task.

• It requires a current of 1.2 amps and a bus voltage of 5 volts, as well as a 15-meter connection wire for the expansion interface. This module can communicate at a data rate of 500 KB per second and does not require any special electrical separation.

• This module was created to work with VME-based integrated devices. The communications module has a physical pushbutton and status indicators. The current state of the system can be changed from the primary unit to the backup unit and vice versa using these buttons.

GE Fanuc was established in 1986 as a joint venture between General Electric and Fanuc, a Japanese firm. They released 90-70 PLCs, the Genius series of distributed I/O, and Series 6 programmable logic controllers, among other things. In 2009, GE and Fanuc opted to discontinue their joint venture, with GE keeping the control and automation division and Fanuc taking over the CNC division. WOC supports a large number of GE Fanuc parts, including IC697RCM711. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require additional information or have a question.
