GE Fanuc IC695CPE305 Central Processing Unit Module

Product Description

The IC695CPE305 is a 1 GHz CPU from the GE Fanuc PACSystems RX3i Series. It comes equipped with an RS-232 serial port and an embedded Ethernet interface, as well as 5 MB RAM (user memory) and 5 MB of non-volatile flash storage memory.

The controller module supports up to 512 program blocks, each of which can be as large as 128 KB. You configure IC695CPE305 over your Ethernet network using Proficy Machine Edition software. As with other programmable logic controllers in this product family, you can program this one in any of four different programming languages (Ladder Diagram, Structured Text, C, or Function Block Diagram). The IC695CPE305 CPU can also interpret the Serial I/O protocol, the Modbus RTU Slave protocol, and the SNP Slave protocol.

Labeled LED indicators on the unit housing can be green, red, off, or blinking when the unit is powered up. This makes troubleshooting efficient, and lets you verify system status at a glance.

IC695CPE305 can be installed in any pair of slots in the main RX3i controller rack except for the slots with the two highest numbers on them. The unit has a Universal Serial Bus (USB) port, but that port supports only the transfer of application data; it is not designed to support a “permanent” connection. Similarly, because IC695CPE305 has less user memory than other CPUs in the RX3i Series, if your operations routinely require you to transfer large files, you might consider using a CPU with more user memory instead (other CPUs in this product family have twice the memory of IC695CPE305).
