GE Fanuc HE693RTM705 Modbus I/O RTU Master Interface Module

HE693RTM705 Description

The HE693RTM705 provides two Modbus/RTU master channels which may be controlled by the 90-30/90-70 to access data from remote slave RTU’s. Each channel can be individually programmed for dial-in, dial-out, radio modem, multi-drop (RS422/RS485), and direct connection (RS232) operation. Each channel can send or receive Analog or Discrete data using standard RTU commands ( i.e. Read Coil ). Multiple commands can be sent to each slave with each command requesting either a single point or multiple contiguous points up to 250 bytes. Data to be sent or stored is placed in the 90-30/90-70 reference data tables.
