GE IC697CPU780 Single-Slot CPU Module

Product Description

• The GE IC697CPU780 is a single-slot CPU module from the Series 90-70 PLC platform, originally developed by GE Fanuc and now under Emerson Automation.

• It is specifically designed for hot standby (redundant) applications, ensuring high availability and minimal downtime in critical control systems.

• The CPU supports floating-point math operations, making it suitable for complex industrial automation tasks.

• It communicates with I/O and smart modules via the rack-mounted VME backplane, and is programmed using MS-DOS-based IC641 software.

• The module includes automatic CPU synchronization, online programming, and fault-tolerant switching between primary and secondary CPUs.
