More Information

Overview Manuals Link Capacity Status Install

Features:

  • IC600YB801 receives the full-duplex remote I/O serial link.
  • A two-pair cable supports communication up to 10,000 ft.
  • Status references report handshake, parity, link, and heartbeat.
The module connects a Series Six remote I/O station to a Remote I/O Driver in a CPU or Local I/O station.

RS-232C modems can extend communications beyond the direct 10,000 ft twisted-pair limit.

Eight input references provide operational status while eight output references remain reserved for future use.

For the General Electric IC600YB801 Remote I/O Receiver Module, Apter Power can supply quotation details and relevant GE manuals or product documentation.

Building the remote serial link

  • Medium: Use two twisted pairs for full-duplex communication.
  • Direct reach: Cable distance can be up to 10,000 ft.
  • Extended reach: RS-232C modems support longer paths.
  • Partner: Connect the receiver to the Series Six Remote I/O Driver.

Allocating remote I/O capacity

  • Inputs: A remote station supports up to 248 inputs.
  • Outputs: A remote station supports up to 248 outputs.
  • Status inputs: Reserve eight references for link condition reporting.
  • Status outputs: Eight references are reserved for future use.

Reading the remote status byte

  • Handshake: Input 1 toggles when Driver and Receiver exchange data.
  • Quality: Inputs 4–6 report parity, remote, and link condition.
  • Local status: Input 7 reports the local programmable-logic condition.
  • Heartbeat: Input 8 changes state once each scan during correct operation.

Preparing a receiver replacement

  • Address: Record the rack and eight status-reference assignments.
  • Cable: Mark both twisted pairs and any modem connections.
  • Termination: Preserve the receiver position and end-of-link setting.
  • Validation: Confirm handshake, parity, link, local status, and heartbeat after restart.
Description
The General Electric IC600YB801 Remote I/O Receiver Module connects a Series Six remote station to the serial link driven from a CPU or Local I/O station.

Across two twisted pairs, IC600YB801 supports full-duplex communication for cable runs up to 10,000 ft; RS-232C modems can extend operation beyond that distance.

A remote station using IC600YB801 can address up to 248 inputs and 248 outputs. The associated status byte reserves eight input and eight output references for handshake, parity, link, local-station, and heartbeat reporting.

Front and backplane connections let IC600YB801 coordinate the remote rack with its driver while isolating communications faults from ordinary I/O data. The module is selected and wired as part of the complete remote I/O link.

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.
Why are IC600YB801 LINK OK and REMOTE OK both off?
On IC600YB801, check for a broken or noisy driver-to-receiver cable, modem failure, or loss of power in the remote rack.
What does a stopped IC600YB801 heartbeat indicate?
IC600YB801 changes its heartbeat status each scan during normal operation; a stopped toggle points to a monitored remote-I/O fault.
When does IC600YB801 need modems on the remote link?
IC600YB801 supports two-twisted-pair runs up to 10,000 ft, while longer distances require compatible RS-232C modems.
Why can IC600YB801 report REMOTE OK off after address changes?
IC600YB801 can flag a remote fault when module addresses fall outside the legal blocks assigned at the Remote I/O Driver.
How much remote I/O can IC600YB801 handle at one station?
IC600YB801 supports a remote station with up to 248 inputs and 248 outputs when addressing and link configuration are valid.
What should be checked when IC600YB801 reports a parity error?
Clear the IC600YB801 parity indication through the prescribed controller cycle, then inspect the first downstream rack and I/O-chain cable if it returns.
How should IC600YB801 terminate a single-rack remote station?
If no downstream receiver is connected, configure IC600YB801 to terminate the I/O-chain signals at its lower connector.
