Information

Overview Manuals Technical notes Product Applications Communication and Data Integrity Installation

Features:

  • Data monitoring by a personal computer or an industrial computer
  • Monitoring data from Genius I/O blocks (although it cannot control Genius I/O blocks).
  • Peer-to-peer communications among devices on the bus
  • Master-slave communications among devices on the bus (emulates remote I/O)
The GE IC693CMM302 is an Enhanced Genius Communications Module. It is quite commonly know as GCM+ for short. This unit is an intelligent module which enables automatic global data communications between any Series 90-30 PLC and up to a maximum of 31 other devices. This is done on a Genius bus. It is possible for the IC693CMM302 GCM+ to be installed on a number of different baseplates, including expansion or remote baseplates. That being said, the most efficient performance of this module can be achieved by installing it in the CPU baseplate. This is because the sweep impact time of the module is dependent on the PLC model and varies according to which baseplate it is located in.

The IC693CMM302 GE Genius Communication Module may still be available for purchase and support from Amikon Limited beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

The Enhanced Genius Communications Module (GCM+), IC693CMM302, is an intelligent modulethat provides automatic global data communications between a Series 90-30 PLC and up to 31other devices on a Genius bus.The GCM+ can be located in any standard Series 90-30 CPU baseplate, expansion baseplate, orremote baseplate. However, for most efficient operation, it is recommended that the module beinstalled in the CPU baseplate since the sweep impact time of the GCM+ module depends on themodel of PLC and the baseplate where it is located.
  • Metallurgy and Steel: Automation monitoring of iron smelting blast furnace systems and boiler control.
  • Chemical and Oil Refining: Production environments with extremely high requirements for corrosion prevention and interference resistance.
  • Water Treatment Systems: Distributed monitoring of water treatment plants and sewage treatment plants.
  • Power Monitoring: Monitoring systems for hydropower plants and substations.

The IC693CMM302 maintains system stability through internal logic and communication safeguards:
Error Monitoring: The module generates specific error codes to protect the PLC from misconfiguration. For example, REF ER indicates that assigned addresses exceed PLC limits, while GCM ERR prevents the dangerous concurrent installation of both a standard GCM and an Enhanced GCM+ in the same PLC.
Isolation from I/O Control: While the module can monitor data from Genius I/O blocks, it has no ability to control them, providing a layer of protection against unauthorized or accidental I/O state changes through the communication module. 
IC693CMM302 Can be placed in any standard CPU, expansion, or remote baseplate. For maximum efficiency, installation in the CPU baseplate is recommended.

FAQs

  • What is the IC693CMM302

    +
    The GE Fanuc/Emerson IC693CMM302 is an Enhanced Genius Communications Module (GCM+) for the Series 90-30 PLC, enabling automatic, high-speed data exchange with other devices on a Genius bus.
  • What is the capacity of the IC693CMM302?

    +
    It supports up to 31 devices on its bus, allowing for extensive communication with other PLC systems and I/O blocks.
  • What is the difference between IC693CMM301 and IC693CMM302?

    +
    The GCM+ (IC693CMM302) is a faster, more advanced version. While they can coexist on the same bus, they cannot be installed together in the same PLC rack.
  • What is the maximum data capacity supported by the IC693CMM302 module?

    +
    It supports 128 bytes of data to send and receive.
  • What does

    +
    This indicates that the reference address assigned to the Serial Bus Address (SBA) exceeds the PLC's limits or the data length exceeds 128 bytes.
