PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IC695CRU320 is a PACSystems RX3i Processor Module designed for redundant controller architectures. It operates on a 1 GHz Celeron M microprocessor with 64 MB of user memory. The unit mounts directly into a PCI slot on an RX3i universal backplane. It manages high-speed data transfer between active and secondary controller racks during operation.
This redundancy processor performs system switchover within one logic scan or a minimum of 3.133 milliseconds. It supports synchronization links using IC695RMX128 or IC695RMX228 units. Memory holds up to 512 program blocks with a maximum size of 128 KB each. Engineers configure logic using Ladder Diagram, C, or Function Block Diagram programming languages.
