        More Information

        Overview Manuals Interfaces Protocols Setup Status

        Features:

        • IC600BF948 adds two independently configured serial communication ports.
        • Both ports support RS-232 and RS-422 interfaces.
        • Port and CPU activity is separated across six status indicators.
        The module extends a Series Six installation when the two ports on the primary CCM2 or CCM3 are already assigned.

        Port 1 adds active or passive 20 mA current-loop capability, and Port 2 can insert a 500 ms turnaround delay where the serial link requires it.

        On-board switch banks keep protocol and framing choices local to the module rather than relying on CPU register configuration.

        For quotation enquiries concerning the General Electric IC600BF948 I/O Communications Control Module, Apter Power can also provide relevant manufacturer manuals or product documentation.
        General Electric IC600BF948 I/O Communications Control Module Manuals, Datasheets, Links Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.

        Assigning the two serial interfaces

        • Port 1: Select RS-232, RS-422, or active/passive 20 mA current loop.
        • Port 2: Seat the hybrid DIP package for either RS-232 or RS-422.
        • Connectors: Both ports use 25-pin D-type female connectors.
        • Isolation: The ports are isolated from each other and from Series Six common.

        Matching link protocol and operating role

        • CCM: Configure IC600BF948 as master, slave, or peer.
        • RTU: Use the module as an RTU slave.
        • Unformatted transfer: Raw read and write operation is also available.
        • Restriction: The module does not support STR-LINK, OIU, or register-based port setup.

        Separating port hardware selections

        • Switch banks: Banks A, B, and C establish the independent communication options.
        • Data rate: Select a supported asynchronous rate from 110 to 19.2 Kbps.
        • Framing: Match parity, data bits, and stop bits at both ends.
        • Delay: Port 2 offers a 0 or 500 ms turnaround choice.

        Reading communication activity at the faceplate

        • BOARD OK: Confirms that IC600BF948 has passed its internal operating checks.
        • CPU COMM: Shows communication between the module and the Series Six CPU.
        • Port 1: Separate transmit and receive indicators expose traffic direction.
        • Port 2: A second TX/RX pair follows activity on the other serial link.
        Description
        The General Electric IC600BF948 Input/Output Communications Control Module adds two serial interfaces between a Series Six CPU and external controllers, computers, operator systems, or other compatible devices.

        Both ports on IC600BF948 can be configured independently for RS-232 or RS-422 communication. Port 1 also supports an active or passive 20 mA current loop, while Port 2 provides a selectable turnaround delay.

        Hardware switches on IC600BF948 set protocol, data rate, parity, stop bits, and operating role without consuming the primary CCM2 or CCM3 ports. In CCM mode the module can operate as master, slave, or peer; RTU operation is supported as a slave.

        Six faceplate indicators separate board and CPU-communication status from transmit and receive activity on each port. This arrangement gives IC600BF948 a direct view of link traffic while preserving port-to-port and port-to-system isolation.

        Technical notes
        For IC600BF948 Port 2, orient the RS-232/RS-422 hybrid DIP package with the required interface marking nearest connector J1 before rack installation.

        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
        Why does IC600BF948 show no traffic after a port interface change?
        On IC600BF948, align the Port 2 RS-232/RS-422 selector with the remote device and then match the baud, parity, data-bit, and stop-bit settings.
        How can IC600BF948 add ports when the primary CCM is already occupied?
        IC600BF948 supplies two independently configured serial ports when the CCM2 or CCM3 ports are already committed to other devices.
        Why does IC600BF948 current-loop communication fail at a high baud rate?
        IC600BF948 limits Port 1 current-loop operation to 4800 bps, although RS-232 and RS-422 operation can run at higher supported rates.
        Which IC600BF948 indicators separate a CPU-access fault from a line fault?
        IC600BF948 uses CPU COMM for controller access and separate TX/RX indicators for each port, so the inactive stage narrows the fault path.
        Can the two IC600BF948 ports use different communication settings?
        Yes. IC600BF948 configures each port independently for its supported interface, speed, framing, and protocol role.
        Why can IC600BF948 RTU communication operate only as a slave?
        IC600BF948 supports master, slave, or peer roles in CCM mode, but its RTU implementation is limited to slave operation.
        What rack conditions must be met before installing IC600BF948?
        IC600BF948 requires one compatible Series Six I/O slot and sufficient +5 VDC and +12 VDC backplane load capacity.
