Features:
- Consolidates four independently isolated serial ports into one RX3i slot.
- Supports software-selected RS-232 and RS-485/422 electrical modes.
- Combines configurable industrial protocols with status and fault diagnostics.
Four channels reduce slot usage in applications with several meters, drives, RTUs, or other serial devices.
Each port has its own communication settings, while DNP3 use imposes a same-module DNP3 protocol restriction.
Supported remote placement expands serial connectivity near field equipment while limiting those remote ports to Modbus roles.

IC695CMM004 Four-Channel Setup
- Independent ports: Every channel has its own protocol and line settings.
- Electrical standard: RS-232 or RS-485/422 is selected in software.
- Rate range: Baud rates extend from 1200 through 115200 bit/s.
- Handshake lines: RS-232 supports RTS/CTS and RFR/CTS control.
IC695CMM004 Protocol Coordination
- Modbus: Master and Slave roles can coexist where allowed.
- DNP3 restriction: Using DNP3 on one channel restricts the others to DNP3.
- CCM Slave: Legacy CCM Slave devices are supported.
- Serial I/O: Custom application exchanges use the Serial I/O mode.
IC695CMM004 Remote-Rack Operation
- PNS placement: A scanner-managed rack accepts up to four serial modules.
- CEP placement: A CEP remote node accepts one serial module.
- Remote protocols: Only Modbus Master and Slave are supported remotely.
- PME requirement: Current supported PAC Machine Edition is used for configuration.
IC695CMM004 Diagnostics and Maintenance
- LED feedback: Front indicators show module and communication state.
- Fault reporting: Watchdog, RAM, and flash failures reach the controller.
- Hot service: Qualified personnel may use the qualified RX3i hot-insertion procedure.
- Firmware: Onboard flash supports manufacturer-authorized updates.
