The IC693DNM200 connects directly to the main rack backplane bus of Series 90-30 or PACSystems RX3i CPUs, utilizing high backplane bus communication velocity to process up to 3972 bytes of input and output data. Network synchronization across DeviceNet deterministic networks is sustained through configurable Poll, Strobe, Cyclic, or COS messaging triggers. The module supports simultaneous dual Master/Slave execution, Unconnected Message Manager (UCMM) protocols, and on-the-fly firmware upgrades via the front RS-232 service port, maintaining firmware flash compatibility across active system revisions.
Q: Which backplane baseplate slots support the IC693DNM200 module?
A: The module can be installed in any available slot of a Series 90-30 or RX3i main rack except slots 0 and 1. It is not supported in remote or expansion baseplates.
Q: What are the maximum current limits for the 32 discrete output channels?
A: Output points deliver up to 0.5 A per point. However, total current must not exceed 4.0 A per 8-point output group, and current per group common pin must stay below 3.0 A.
Q: Does the IC693DNM200 support firmware updates in the field?
A: Yes, module firmware is upgradeable via the front panel 9-pin RS-232 female service port using standard configuration software.
Our production line was down due to a faulty Bently Nevada monitor. We found it in stock here and they shipped it via DHL immediately. Back in operation within 48 hours—truly a lifesaver for our plant.
Finding brand new, original modules is critical for our safety. This team delivers factory-fresh components with full certification. Their commitment to only selling new products makes them our most trusted partner.
We have sourced Honeywell and Schneider parts here for two years. Every shipment arrives well-packaged with original factory seals intact. Clear communication and the best lead times in the industry.
