Description

GE IC695ETM001

  • Technical Specifications:
    • Ports: 2 × 10/100 Mbps RJ-45 (10BaseT/100BaseTX)
    • Additional Port: 1 × RS-232 serial (1200–115,200 bps)
    • Protocols: SRTP, Modbus TCP, EGD; supports SNTP time synchronization
    • Processor: 200 MHz Ethernet processor
    • Hot-Swap: Supported (with RX3i universal backplane and firmware 2.51+)
    • Compatible Backplanes: IC695CHS007, IC695CHS012, IC695CHS016
  • Functional Features:
    • Embedded Ethernet switch for daisy-chain topologies
    • Redundant IP addressing supported
    • Station Manager accessible via Ethernet or RS-232 for configuration and diagnostics
    • LED indicators (OK, Status, LAN OK, Log Empty, per-port activity/speed)
  • Application Scenarios: PLC networking, HMI/SCADA connectivity, controller-to-controller data exchange, time synchronization via SNTP. 
  • Performance Parameters:
    • Single MAC/IP address per module; supports up to 32 TCP connections
    • Supports EGD periodic data exchange and SRTP channels
  • Material and Structural Characteristics:
    • Industrial-grade components; front RJ-45 ports and RS-232 connector
  • Working Principle: Handles Ethernet communications independently of the CPU to reduce load; provides data exchange via EGD and protocol services (SRTP, Modbus TCP).
  • Installation Requirements:
    • Install in any empty RX3i universal backplane slot
    • Use CAT5/5e cabling; ensure proper IP configuration via Station Manager
  • Usage Notes:
    • Update firmware to 2.51+ for hot-swap support
    • Avoid combining with IC695CPE400 in the same rack
    • Use Station Manager to configure IP, redundancy, and security settings
