PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IC695PBM300 is a PROFIBUS Master Module designed for the PACSystems RX3i control platform. This single-slot module occupies a universal backplane location using the RX3i PCI bus interface. It enables the RX3i central processor to exchange cyclic and acyclic data across a standard PROFIBUS-DP network. Internal power consumption from the backplane is rated at 440 mA at 3.3 VDC.
This communication interface supports network management for up to 125 PROFIBUS-DP slave devices. The module accommodates up to 244 bytes of input data and 244 bytes of output data per slave. Total data exchange reaches up to 3584 bytes of input data and 3584 bytes of output data. Operating temperatures span from 0 to 60 degrees Celsius for industrial field installations.
