More Information

Overview Manuals Chain Design Rack Position Diagnostics RPU Use

Features:

  • Adds an auxiliary I/O chain to compatible Series Six CPUs.
  • Supports expanded Series Six Plus addressing with the required rack hardware.
  • Provides chain, parity, and output-enable indications.
IC600CB513 extends the controller through a second path that is functionally similar to the primary I/O chain.

Its placement and shunt selection change with the CPU family, so the recorded rack build governs installation.

Troubleshooting must include the cable, receivers, remote rack power, and address map as well as the local module.

Define the auxiliary path before hardware work

  • I/O chain: Map every rack and cable served by IC600CB513, including the first receiver and the address range assigned to each station.
  • Chain separation: The auxiliary chain follows the Series Six I/O architecture but remains separate from the primary path.
  • Recorded baseline: Avoid duplicate references and unrecorded cross-connections.
  • Rack arrangement: Keep the topology drawing with the CPU rack record so a future replacement can be checked without tracing a live system.

Match position and shunts to the CPU family

  • Module position: A Series Six Plus rack allows IC600CB513 in supported option positions, commonly slots 5 through 7.
  • Operational effect: Model 6000 uses its own assigned location and shunt selection.
  • Slot compatibility: Check the occupied slot, backplane hardware, and other communication options before moving the module.
  • Controlled action: A mechanically open position is not automatically valid.
  • Safe handling: Power down, use the extraction tool, and compare the full assembly label before insertion.

Interpret local indicators with downstream conditions

  • Parity response: CHAIN OK, PARITY, and ENABLED reflect the state of the auxiliary path.
  • I/O continuity: A receiver, cable, or remote power fault can therefore appear at IC600CB513.
  • Indicator evidence: Capture the indicator pattern before resetting or reseating hardware.
  • Address control: Verify continuity and addressing one section at a time to preserve fault evidence.
  • Output control: Restore outputs only after the expected point map and safe field state have been confirmed.

Apply the supported assembly requirement

  • RPU requirement: IC600CB513 assembly version R03 or later provides the enhanced filtering required for supported redundant-processor installations.
  • Assembly identification: Read the assembly label on the board rather than inferring compatibility from the base model number.
  • Recorded baseline: Record that label with the CPU software and RPU revision.
  • Compatibility hold: Where the requirement cannot be confirmed, keep the module out of the final redundant build until the approved combination is reviewed.
Description
General Electric IC600CB513 is an Auxiliary I/O Control Module used in Series Six Model 6000 and Series Six Plus CPU racks. It provides the interface for an additional I/O chain operating alongside the primary chain.

In Expanded mode, the auxiliary path can extend a Series Six Plus system by as many as 8000 inputs and 8000 outputs when the required transmitter and rack hardware are present. A Model 6000 installation uses a smaller documented maximum and a different module-position selection.

The module uses CPU-backplane power and presents CHAIN OK, PARITY, and ENABLED indications for service work. The connected cable, chain continuity, field rack power, and address plan must all be considered before IC600CB513 is judged faulty.

Placement depends on the CPU type: Series Six Plus permits slots 5 through 7 according to the fitted options, while Model 6000 uses its assigned auxiliary position. DIP shunts and the rack configuration must be checked before commissioning.

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.
What must be documented before replacing IC600CB513?
Record the IC600CB513 slot, DIP-shunt arrangement, cable destination, auxiliary-chain addresses, downstream racks, output state, and normal indicator pattern before removal.
Why can an IC600CB513 fault appear to be a remote rack problem?
IC600CB513 represents the entire auxiliary path. A cable break, receiver issue, rack power loss, or address conflict downstream can change its chain or parity indications.
Can IC600CB513 be placed in any open Series Six Plus slot?
No. IC600CB513 is limited to supported CPU positions, normally slots 5 through 7 depending on other options. Use the approved Series Six Plus position rules together with the installed rack build record.
What changes when IC600CB513 is used in a Model 6000 CPU?
The IC600CB513 position, DIP-shunt selection, and available auxiliary I/O capacity differ from a Series Six Plus Expanded-mode installation, so the CPU type must be confirmed first.
Why should outputs remain disabled after IC600CB513 installation?
Keeping outputs disabled lets technicians prove IC600CB513 chain continuity, parity, addressing, remote rack power, and actual point mapping without unexpected field actuation.
When does the IC600CB513 assembly-version note matter?
GE documentation recommends IC600CB513 assembly version R03 or later in RPU systems because those later assemblies include enhanced filtering for improved disturbance tolerance.
What should be checked before ordering an IC600CB513 spare?
Confirm the full IC600CB513 suffix, assembly label, CPU family, occupied slot, auxiliary-chain topology, connector condition, and whether RPU service imposes the documented assembly requirement.
