Features:
- Provides sixteen controlled I/O states for Series Three logic checks.
- Occupies one defined sixteen-point controller reference block.
- Requires 110 mA from the +5 V rail with no assigned +12 V load.
IC630MDL324 lets technicians exercise controller logic without relying on live field devices.
The simulator's states must remain separate from plant I/O and aligned with the intended rack position and reference block.
IC630MDL324A adds eleven +5 V load units, and every selected state should return to its planned condition after testing.
The General Electric IC630MDL324 I/O Simulator Module may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Controlled logic checks
- Simulator role: IC630MDL324 presents a controlled group of I/O conditions to a Series Three program.
- Point count: Sixteen simulated points occupy one documented controller reference block.
- Expected response: Each selected condition should be matched to the intended program result in the test record.
- Test boundary: Simulated references should remain distinguishable from live field I/O throughout the check.
Keeping the sixteen points traceable
- Reference block: Reserve one continuous sixteen-point assignment for IC630MDL324.
- Program link: Record which controller reference corresponds to each simulated condition.
- Rack context: Preserve the slot and neighboring-module assignments used by the established system.
- Result record: Pair every test state with the logic response expected from that address.
Repeatable simulator use
- Initial record: Capture the starting simulated states before a logic check begins.
- Controlled change: Relate each state change to one identified controller reference.
- Observation: Compare the resulting program behavior with the documented expectation.
- Completion: Leave a clear record of the final conditions so the same check can be repeated.
Power-budget facts for IC630MDL324A
- +5 V load: Eleven Series Three load units are assigned to the simulator.
- Calculated current: At 10 mA per unit, the +5 V demand is 110 mA.
- +12 V rail: The published load table lists no +12 V demand.
- Calculation basis: The rack value uses the worst-case condition with all inputs and outputs on.
