IC694CHS392 is a 10-slot serial expansion backplane in the GE Fanuc PACSystems RX3i series. It is used to expand the number of I/O modules and support the distributed architecture of control systems. Here are its detailed specifications:

Basic Information

  • Model: IC694CHS392
  • Brand: GE Fanuc
  • Series: RX3i PACSystem
  • Function: Serves as a serial expansion backplane to connect I/O modules with the main controller, supporting distributed I/O configurations.

Technical Parameters

Parameter Details
Number of Slots 10 slots (The first slot on the left must be occupied by a power module; the rest are for I/O modules or special-function modules).
Communication Protocol Supports GE Fanuc’s SNP (Serial Network Protocol) for communication with the main controller.
Expansion Distance Maximum expansion distance of 15 meters (50 feet); multiple expansion backplanes can be connected via a daisy-chain.
Power Requirements – 5VDC (provided by a power module such as IC694PWR331)
– Backplane’s own power consumption is approximately 150mA.
Mechanical Specifications – Dimensions: 13.0cm (length) × 44.3cm (width) × 14.2cm (height)
– Weight: Approximately 1.8kg.
Operating Environment – Temperature: 0°C to 60°C (non-condensing)
– Humidity: 5% to 95% (non-condensing).
Protection Class IP20 (must be installed in a control cabinet).

 

Functional Features

  1. Distributed I/O Expansion
    Connects the main controller to extended I/O modules via a serial bus, supporting remote installation and adapting to large-scale control systems.
  2. Modular Design
    Can flexibly configure different types of I/O modules (digital, analog, special-function modules) to meet diverse needs.
  3. Hot-Swap Support
    Some modules support hot-swapping (specific module models need to be confirmed), reducing system downtime.
  4. Redundancy Capability
    Compatible with dual-CPU redundant configurations (when used with the RX3i redundant system), improving system reliability.
  5. Termination Management
    A termination resistor (such as IC693ACC307) must be installed at the end of the backplane to prevent signal reflection and ensure stable communication.

 

Installation & Configuration Notes

  • Module Installation: The leftmost slot must be occupied by a serial power module (e.g., IC694PWR331/330/321). Unused slots require filler panels to prevent dust and ensure heat dissipation.
  • Wiring Requirements: Use shielded cables for serial communication to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI).
  • Power Safety: Power off before installing/uninstalling modules (hot-swap is not supported for the backplane itself).

Application Fields

Widely used in industrial automation systems requiring large-scale I/O expansion, such as:

  • Production line control (automotive, electronics manufacturing)
  • Process control (chemical, pharmaceutical, water treatment)
  • Distributed monitoring systems (power, metallurgy)
