PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IC200DBI001 is a remote I/O network interface module for the VersaMax series. It operates as a slave device on DeviceNet industrial automation networks. The unit utilizes polling as its primary communication method for exchanging operational data. It supports transmission data rates of 125 kbps, 250 kbps, and 500 kbps across networks.
Each station manages an I/O capacity of 128 input and output bytes. The module supports up to 8 local VersaMax I/O modules per station. Field network connections utilize a 5-pin open style connector. Integrated diagnostic LEDs display power, module health, network activity, faults, and force states.
