PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IS420UCSCH1A is a Controller Module designed for Mark VI / Mark VIe systems. This unit operates on the QNX Neutrino operating system version 6.5 or 7.1. The hardware integrates an AMD G-Series quad-core microprocessor running at 1.2 GHz. Internal memory provides 4 GB of RAM alongside 40 GB of pSLC SSD flash storage. Embedded Field Agent technology supports Predix cloud-based applications over a stable connection to deliver real-time data.
The IS420UCSCH1A controller does not host local application I/O channels directly. Instead, the unit attaches to external I/O networks to receive process input data. The module can operate within a redundant set sharing attached I/O networks across controllers. Network communication includes six Ethernet ports and PROFINET protocol compatibility. ToolboxST configures Unit Data Highway communications through a four-gigabyte flash drive. The assembly utilizes passive convection cooling and mounts in a vertical orientation.
