GE IC693UDR005PP1 I/O Module

The GE Fanuc IC693UDR005PP1, also cataloged as the IC693UDR005 Micro I/O Module (Integrated PLC), operates as a dedicated hardware component for standalone ladder logic execution and discrete I/O signal processing within GE Series 90-30 controller networks. The integrated unit features 5 discrete input channels at 24 VDC and 4 relay output channels rated at 2 A per channel without requiring a separate rack or CPU. Field wiring connects directly via removable screw terminal blocks on the top of the enclosure.

Hardware Specifications

Deterministic Network and Integrated Control Features

The IC693UDR005PP1 provides high-density standalone control capability with an execution scan time of 2 ms per 1 K ladder logic. Designed with high backplane bus communication velocity and firmware flash compatibility, the unit integrates a dedicated serial RS-232 programming port for direct ladder configuration using standard Series 90-30 software tools. The built-in 24 VDC power output directly energizes connected field sensors, supporting peer-to-peer data exchange across localized network links while maintaining reliable I/O density scaling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the IC693UDR005PP1 require an internal battery to maintain program memory?

A: No, the module relies on internal non-volatile storage and minimal filtering capacitors for power supply filtering, containing no internal batteries or large energy storage elements.

Q: What are the switching capacities of the onboard discrete outputs?

A: The four integrated electromechanical relay outputs switch up to 2 A each at either 24 VDC or 250 VAC loads.

Q: How is programming and communication established with the module?

A: The unit features a removable RS-232 serial programming port to interface directly with a PC running Series 90-30 programming software, and supports simple peer-to-peer serial communications.

Field Installation Guidelines

1. Mount the unit on a standard 35 mm DIN rail or directly to a flat panel surface using the provided mounting holes within a suitable industrial enclosure.
2. Ensure power feeds are de-energized prior to wiring the four 24 VDC power input terminals on the top removable screw terminal blocks.
3. Wire the 5 discrete 24 VDC inputs and 4 relay output channels using appropriate wire gauges, keeping field signal cables separated from heavy motor or inductive load lines.
4. Verify all sensor and relay load polarity and wiring pinouts before energizing the 24 VDC power supply.
5. Connect the RS-232 programming cable to the dedicated front programming port only when setting up software parameters or transferring ladder logic programs.
