　　IC698CMX016 is a control memory exchange module.It is part of the PACSystem RX7i platform and currently belongs to Emerson Automation,previously produced by GE Intelligent Platform(GE IP).This module is mainly used to provide deterministic data sharing between PLC and compatible devices through fiber optic networks using reflective memory technology.It is equipped with 16MB SDRAM,with a working voltage of+5VDC,provided by a power supply,and a current requirement of 1.8 amperes.This module needs to be installed in the main rack and connected to slots 3 or 4.It adopts fiber LC type,with insertion loss of 0.35 dB(maximum)and return loss of-30dB.

　　IC698CMX016 is a control memory exchange module from the PACSystem RX7i platform of the Programmable Automation Controller(PAC).This component is essentially a memory module,however,the main function of IC698CMX016 is to provide deterministic data sharing between PLCs and compatible devices on fiber optic networks using reflective memory technology.

　　This module is equipped with a reflective parity memory of 16 MB SDRAM.It is installed on the RX7i rack and occupies a single slot on the backplane.This module is CPU independent as it does not require any CPU processing to operate.In addition,it is compatible with the VMIC5556 series reflective storage device network.

　　The communication interface of IC698CMX016 includes an LC fiber optic port that supports a transmission speed of 2.12 Gbaud on multi-mode fiber media with a maximum distance of 300 meters or 984.25 feet.The supported dynamic packet sizes range from 4-64 bytes(maximum network transfer rate of 43 megabytes/second in 4-byte packets)to 174 megabytes/second(64 byte packets).This memory module can communicate with up to 256 nodes per network and supports redundant transmission mode operation.

　　The front panel of IC698CMX016 is equipped with various LED status indicator lights,such as OK,PROFIG,OWN DATA,and SIGNAL DETECT.To use the functionality of IC698CMX016,it must be installed on an RX7i CPU with firmware version 2.00 or higher,a powered RX7i CPU rack,and configured using the Profile Machine Edition–Logic Developer PLC 4.5 or higher.

　　The GE Fanuc IC698CMX016 communication module is the control memory Xchange or CMX module of the Rx7i system.This module provides pre programmed data sharing between the PLC on a high-speed fiber optic network reflective storage system and the connected field devices.The IC698CMX016 module can accommodate up to 256 nodes in a single reflective storage network and is compatible with VMIC 5565 series reflective storage devices connected to each node.Each VMIC 5565 device is connected to a 2.12 GBaud fiber optic network via a daisy chain loop via fiber optic cables.The IC698CMX016 communication module can transmit on-site data within a configurable transmission range of 43 megabytes per second(4 bytes of dynamic packet size)to 174 megabytes per second(64 bytes of dynamic packet size).It has 16 MB of user memory(SDRAM)and reliable software configuration from Machine Edition(ME)Logic Developer PLC version 4.5 or higher software.

　　The rated voltage of the GE Fanuc IC698CMX016 module is 5.0 volts DC and the maximum operating current is 1.8 amperes.On the front panel of the IC698CMX016 module,there is an optical transceiver with 2 fiber optic ports labeled TX and RX for transmitting and receiving field data.The IC698CMX016 module provides user configurable VME bus outputs,which initiate data transmission on the network and provide network error detection to achieve smooth data transmission.The IC698CMX016 module is installed in a single slot of the Rx7i PACsystem I/O rack.It is equipped with four front panel status/diagnostic indicator lights,which are OK PROFIG(normal configuration),OWN DATA(downward data),and Signal DETECT(signal detection)indicator lights,used to display the operation and communication status of the module.

　　application area

　　The IC698CMX016 GE control memory exchange module is used in various industrial automation fields that require high-speed and stable data communication,such as manufacturing,power,chemical,pharmaceutical,etc.
