Features:
- Integrates eight 12 VDC inputs and six 12 VDC outputs in a 14-point footprint.
- Executes four 16-bit high-speed counters at frequencies up to 10 kHz.
- Generates as many as four 16-bit pulse or PWM channels at rates up to 5 kHz.
General Electric IC200UDD112 targets low-voltage machines where fourteen local control points are sufficient and panel space is limited.
The single RS-232 connection can serve program transfer or a supported serial peripheral, with communication parameters assigned in the controller project.
Supercapacitor retention protects program resources during short interruptions, while applications requiring calendar time should provide that function elsewhere.
The General Electric IC200UDD112 14-Point VersaMax Micro PLC may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Twelve-Volt Signal Coordination
- Input Points: Eight input channels accept 12 VDC states from compatible proximity devices, switches, or interface relays.
- Output Points: Six solid-state outputs provide 12 VDC commands to loads that stay within the permitted point current.
- Logic Reference: Common connections should be arranged to match the positive or negative logic used by the field devices.
- Load Suppression: Inductive loads require suitable suppression so switching transients do not disturb adjacent low-voltage signals.
Compact Program Capacity
- Logic Memory: The controller supplies 9K words of logic memory for machine sequences and safety-related interlocks outside the safety function.
- Data Area: A 256-word data area holds setpoints, counters, and application variables needed by the control routine.
- Scan Performance: The nominal scan performance is 1.1 milliseconds per K of logic, allowing task timing to be estimated during design.
- Backup Method: Supercapacitor backup maintains retained resources without the battery and clock features found in larger Micro sizes.
RS-232 Integration
- Serial Interface: One RS-232 port supports programming access or communication with a compatible serial device.
- Communication Format: Baud rate, data bits, parity, and protocol selection must be identical at both ends of the connection.
- Cable Assignment: A point-to-point cable should follow the required pin assignment rather than a generic Ethernet wiring pattern.
- Service Clearance: Service access remains easier when the panel design leaves clearance around the connector and cable bend radius.
Compact Twelve-Volt Automation
- Low-Voltage Equipment: Battery-powered or low-voltage equipment can read local sensors and drive small DC loads from one controller.
- Test Fixtures: Test fixtures can use the built-in high-speed channels for event capture or pulse generation.
- Small Conveyors: Small conveyors can coordinate permissives and actuator timing without a separate CPU and I/O rack.
- Future Expansion: Expansion modules allow the original 14-point station to add specialized signals as the machine design evolves.
