Product Overview

The GE Fanuc IC697BEM763 is a dedicated Bus Expansion Module (BEM) engineered for the GE Series 90-70 and VME hardware platforms. Driven by a 12 MHz 80C186 microprocessor, this 0.85 kg communication card provides dual-protocol network support for legacy DLAN serial networks and high-speed ARCnet-based DLAN+ systems, enabling direct, real-time PLC control over industrial GE drives.

Core Technical Advantages

  • Dual-Protocol Gateway: Merges legacy serial multidrop DLAN capabilities with modern, fast DLAN+ ARCnet communications.
  • Direct Drive Coordination: Establishes high-reliability networking loops for managing GE drive units like the DC300, AC2000, and DC2000 hardware systems.
  • Immediate Hardware Control: Built-in physical restart push button allows operators to safely halt and reinitialize communications locally at the rack face.
  • Clear Diagnostic Layout: Incorporates 3 distinct LEDs (Module OK, Command Out, Data In) for prompt visual assessment of processor states and line signal traffic.

Installation Guide

Slide the 0.85 kg board into a single available slot inside a Series 90-70 or VME rack enclosure. Secure the connection via the integrated locking screws. Insert your communication line into the 8-pin DLAN network port, keeping operating environments between 0°C and 60°C with a relative humidity range of 5% to 95% non-condensing.

Technical FAQs

Q1: What specific functions do the three onboard LED lights indicate?
A1: 'Module OK' flashes during self-diagnostics and stays on when operational; 'Command Out' lights up when sending PLC commands; 'Data In' flashes during valid message reception.

Q2: Which industrial GE drives are natively supported by this network card?
A2: The module provides real-time data exchange and hardware command mapping for GE DC300, AC2000, and DC2000 industrial drive units.

Q3: What is the purpose of the manual button on the front faceplate?
A3: The faceplate features a mechanical restart button designed to quickly halt and safely reinitialize all active network port communications without cycling the rack power.
