Operating at 115 VAC or 125 VDC nominal supply, this module allows a cluster of up to 8 Genius I\/O blocks to interface simultaneously with two redundant serial communications buses. It provides physical channel switching to ensure high system availability, maintaining bus communication link integrity in redundant control topologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDual Serial Bus Switching Mechanism\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe module serves as an automated relay interface between primary (Bus A) and secondary (Bus B) serial channels. When de-energized, internal switching connections default directly to Bus A. The internal switching coil energizes only when Bus B selection is mandated, switching control over to the backup line. Bus switching commands can be initiated directly via the system CPU or manually using a Genius Handheld Monitor (HHM). An integrated front-panel LED illuminates specifically when Bus B is active, offering immediate visual status to site maintenance technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePower Specifications and Line Differentiation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for AC\/DC control environments, the module operates across a input voltage window of 90 to 130 VAC or 95 to 150 VDC. Power draw is rated at 60 mA under 115 VAC operation and 12 mA under 120 VDC conditions. System designers should note that while the \u003cstrong\u003eIC660BSM120\u003c\/strong\u003e shares identical functional logic and capacity with its sister model IC660BSM021, the IC660BSM021 relies on a low-voltage 24\/48 VDC power input. Both units maintain a minimum contact switching reliability rating of 500,000 operations with a fast switching response time under 20 milliseconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIC660BSM120\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGE Fanuc \/ Emerson\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGenius I\/O Bus Switching Module\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90–130 VAC \/ 95–150 VDC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum Current Draw\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60 mA @ 115 VAC \/ 12 mA @ 120 VDC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum I\/O Capacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 8 Genius I\/O Blocks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSerial Bus Connections\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 Redundant Serial Buses\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSwitching Response Time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026lt; 20 ms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinimum Reliability Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e500,000 Operations\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 to 60 deg C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5 x 2.3 x 2.5 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.25 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What is the main difference between IC660BSM120 and IC660BSM021?A: Both modules offer identical dual-bus switching functions for up to 8 Genius I\/O blocks, but they use different power supplies.
