More Information

Overview Manuals Specifications Link Setup Data Handling Recovery

Features:

  • High-speed proprietary Fanuc I/O Link master for up to 16 slave devices
  • Capacity for 1024 discrete inputs and 1024 discrete outputs
  • Electrical or optical network segments supported through the appropriate adapter
IC693BEM321 operates with supported Series 90-30 CPUs from release 4.4 and can be configured with a Hand-held Programmer or Logicmaster 90-30 Configurator release 4.5 or later.

The module may occupy any Series 90-30 slot except the CPU position. GE Fanuc recommends the CPU rack or an expansion rack when available, while installation in a remote rack requires an electrical link connection.

Documented slave choices include compatible Power Mate models, Series 0 CNC equipment, Fanuc operator and connection units, and Series 90 PLCs operating as universal I/O Link slaves.

Apter Power can assist with sourcing and official documentation for the General Electric IC693BEM321 Series 90-30 I/O Link Master Module after manufacturer End-of-Life (EOL).

Network planning

  • Topology: Arrange each slave in the configured sequence so the controller can map link data without gaps.
  • Node limit: Keep the completed segment within the documented maximum of 16 slave devices.
  • Cabling: Use the specified shielded twisted-pair cable and terminate the selected link medium at both ends.
  • Segment length: Keep each electrical run within the maximum distance specified for the selected transfer rate.

Controller data allocation

  • Input references: Assign incoming link data to %I or %AI memory according to the controller program structure.
  • Output references: Place outgoing data in %Q, %AQ, %G, or %R memory as supported by the configuration.
  • Status word: Reserve the module status word so the application can identify ready, operating, and error states.
  • Failure response: Select data defaulting or last-state retention to define how output data behaves after communication is lost.

Link restoration procedure

  • Fault correction: Repair cabling, power, or slave-device conditions before attempting to restart communication.
  • Slave readiness: Confirm every intended slave is online, because restart can otherwise establish only a partial link.
  • One-shot command: Pulse restart or reset for one PLC scan instead of maintaining the command continuously.
  • Post-restart check: Review module status and mapped input data to verify that the complete configured link has returned.
Description
IC693BEM321 is a single-slot Series 90-30 module with a front-panel connection for the proprietary Fanuc I/O Link. Local indicators present module and link condition information for commissioning and maintenance.

The specified operating environment for IC693BEM321 spans 0 to 60 °C with 5% to 95% non-condensing relative humidity. Its storage rating extends from -40 to 85 °C when the module is not energized.

IC693BEM321 is rated for 3.5 mm peak-to-peak vibration from 5 to 150 Hz and 15 G shock for 11 ms. These limits define the mechanical conditions to be considered when placing the Series 90-30 rack in an industrial enclosure.
