        Overview Manuals Compatibility Installation Rack Expansion I/O Addressing

        Features:

        • Provides eight module positions in one Series Three PLC base unit.
        • Accepts the documented Series Three AC or DC rack power-supply options.
        • Can place Series Three I/O behind a Series Five interface without replacing the field-side rack.
        The first Series Three interface in a Series Five base is assigned starting input and output addresses I0001 and O0001. Its location therefore affects how downstream I/O addresses are organized.

        The interface reserves equal input and output ranges according to its DIP-switch setting, even when fewer physical points are installed in the connected Series Three racks.

        With several interfaces present, the Series Five CPU assigns their I/O blocks sequentially; manually assigned modules must stay outside the complete ranges reserved for every Series Three branch.

        Hardware required around the eight-slot base

        • Rack power: IC630PWR310 supplies a 115/230 VAC installation, while IC630PWR314 is the listed 24 VDC option.
        • Series Five bridge: IC655BEM530 provides the interface used when Series Three I/O is added to a Series Five controller.
        • First connection: IC655CBL530 joins the Series Five interface to the CPU connector on the first Series Three power supply.
        • Expansion links: IC630CBL304 and IC630CBL305 are the documented cable choices between additional Series Three bases.

        Building the Series Three I/O branch

        • Base count: One IC655BEM530 interface supports one to three connected Series Three base units.
        • Power placement: Every base in the branch receives its own Series Three power supply rather than sharing rack power.
        • Initial cable path: The Series Five-to-Series Three cable terminates at the CPU connector of the first base-unit power supply.
        • Added racks: Each base beyond the first requires one Series Three I/O expander cable in the daisy-chained layout.

        Capacity boundaries for an expanded rack group

        • Physical capacity: IC630CHS308 provides eight positions, compared with the documented six- and four-slot Series Three base alternatives.
        • Branch capacity: A single IC655BEM530 can service as many as 1024 points, divided into 512 inputs and 512 outputs.
        • Controller scale: A Series Five I/O system can include up to four Series Three interface modules.
        • Allocation limit: Rack additions must remain inside the I/O quantity selected for their associated interface module.

        Preventing conflicts in the Series Five I/O map

        • Selection increments: The interface DIP switch defines Series Three I/O capacity in groups of 32 points.
        • Balanced ranges: Each setting reserves the same number of input and output references, regardless of the points physically installed.
        • First branch: The initial interface receives starting references I0001 and O0001 under either CPU or user assignment.
        • Multiple branches: CPU addressing places additional Series Three interfaces sequentially after the range used by the preceding interface.
        • Manual assignment: Other I/O modules need address ranges that do not overlap the complete DIP-switch allocations of the Series Three interfaces.
        Description
        General Electric IC630CHS308 is the eight-slot base unit identified for the Series Three programmable controller platform. Its rack provides the physical mounting positions for Series Three I/O modules in a modular control assembly.

        Power is supplied separately for each IC630CHS308. The rack can be paired with IC630PWR310 in a 115/230 VAC installation or IC630PWR314 where the Series Three branch uses a 24 VDC source.

        Within a mixed Series Five arrangement, IC630CHS308 remains on the Series Three side of the IC655BEM530 interface. The initial cable terminates at the CPU connector on the first rack power supply, preserving the Series Three base-and-power relationship.

        An expanded branch can place additional IC630CHS308 units after the first base through dedicated Series Three expander cables. Rack growth and address allocation are governed by the associated interface rather than by the eight physical positions alone.

        Technical notes
        Slot count alone is insufficient for rack selection: IC630CHS308 is a Series Three base, while Series Five base units follow different interface arrangements.

        FAQS

        The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
        VIEW ALL FAQS
        How should technicians connect IC630CHS308 to a Series Five PLC?
        Connect IC630CHS308 through an IC655BEM530 Series Three I/O Interface Module and the IC655CBL530 cable; the cable runs from the Series Five base to the first Series Three power-supply CPU connector.
        Can IC630CHS308 be used as an additional Series Three I/O base?
        Yes. IC630CHS308 can serve as one of one to three Series Three base units connected to a single IC655BEM530 interface, with additional bases linked by the specified expander cable.
        Does IC630CHS308 include its own power supply?
        No. IC630CHS308 requires a separate Series Three power supply: IC630PWR310 for 115/230 VAC installations or IC630PWR314 for 24 VDC systems.
        How many IC630CHS308 base units can one IC655BEM530 interface support?
        One IC655BEM530 can connect from one to three IC630CHS308 or other supported Series Three base units, subject to the interface module’s I/O capacity.
        Which expansion cable should be used between additional IC630CHS308 base units?
        Use IC630CBL304 for a 1.5 ft (0.5 m) link or IC630CBL305 for a 3 ft (1 m) link when connecting an additional IC630CHS308 base unit.
        What I/O capacity should be checked before expanding a system with IC630CHS308?
        Check the assigned IC655BEM530 interface load before adding IC630CHS308. The interface can service up to 1024 points, divided into 512 inputs and 512 outputs.
