The GE Fanuc Emerson IC695CMM002 is a serial communication module that has two (2) independent and isolated serial ports. Six (6) IC695CMM002 modules are supported in the principal RX3i PACSystem backplane. The module ports can be set for CCM slave, MODBUS master/slave, or serial I/O protocol. This module offers an electrical isolation of 500 Volts DC between ports and 250 Volts AC between the port and the backplane using optocouplers. The ports can be employed in RS-232 and RS-485/422 communication. The device includes RTS/CTS hardware handshake for the communication protocol. This module draws a current of 115 milliamperes at a voltage of +5 Volts DC and a current of 700 milliamperes at a voltage of +3.3 Volts DC. The IC695CMM002 offers a data rate range from 1200 bauds to 115.2 kilobauds.

The IC695CMM002 offers seven to eight bits for transferred data including either a single or two stop bits. The module can be set without or with either even or odd parity. This module reports watchdog, RAM, and flash issues. The IC695CMM002 contains LED indicators to show module and communication status. This module can be mounted in a universal RX3i backplane and supports an overvoltage of ± 25 Volts DC. The device has an RJ-45 connector. The RS-485/422 port can be employed with either four (4) wires for full-duplex communication or two (2) wires for half-duplex. The IC695CMM002 weighs approximately 320 grams (0.70 pounds) while shipping and operates at zero (0) to 60 degrees Celsius (32 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit) for industrial applications.

The GE Fanuc IC695CMM002 is an advanced communication module. It comes with two (2) serial ports. The communication serial ports on this module are isolated and independent. Using an RX3i PacSystems backplane, users can install 6 serial communications modules. Each of the serial ports can be configured for several operations, applications, and options. The default flow control comes with full-duplex feature. It requires 1.32 or later version of the Firmware. The flow control on the GE Fanuc IC695CMM002 can be configured to be a half-duplex. For RS-232 communication, this communication module supports both RTS/CTS hardware handshake and RFR/CTS handshake. For communication, the serial ports on this communication module can be configured for both RS-232 and RS-485/422. It supports the following baud rates - 1200 baud, 2400 baud, 4800 baud, 9600 baud, 19.2 kb, 38.4 kb, 57.6 kb, or 115.2 kb. This communication module can alert for the flash fail, RAM fail, and watchdog faults. It comes with compliance for CE, ATEX, 1604, and UL/UCK 508 standards.

The GE Fanuc IC695CMM002 communication module can report a number of faults in the system. It comes with several compliance such as CE, ATEX, 1604, and UL/UCK 508 standards. The flash memory on this module is especially used for storing the files for the built-in firmware. Also, as new upgrades and bug patches are rolled out for the firmware, it can be installed on this module with ease. Unlike other modules that are similar to this one, this communication module from GE Fanuc can be hot swapped.
