PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IC697ADC701 is an Alphanumeric Display Coprocessor Module for the Series 90-70 system. It operates by drawing 1.0 A of current from the 5V backplane bus. The unit provides visual data representation and communication processing in industrial automation systems. Dual onboard serial communication ports include dedicated RS-232 and RS-422/RS-485 interfaces.
Memory retention during power outages relies on an internal lithium backup battery. This battery maintains memory data for approximately 6 months without applied system power. The battery offers a shelf life of 10 years at an ambient temperature of 20 °C. Operating temperature ranges from -25 °C to 70 °C across altitudes up to 2000 meters. The enclosure carries an IP 20 ingress rating and features three diagnostic status LEDs.
