The IC693APU300 is a high-speed counter (HSC) module designed for the Series 90-30 PLC ecosystem (originally GE Fanuc). It provides a high-performance interface between rapid pulse-generating field devices and the PLC processor, ensuring precise real-time tracking of position, velocity, and totalization events.
This module converts raw pulse inputs into actionable digital data, allowing high-speed mechanical or flow events to be captured without loss, even beyond the capabilities of standard I/O scan cycles.

The IC693APU300 is commonly used in applications requiring high-speed pulse acquisition, including:
Motion Control: Tracking motor shaft position and travel using optical encoders
Flow Metering: Signal processing from turbine or positive displacement flowmeters for accurate totalization
Material Handling: Counting items on high-speed conveyors for sorting or inventory
Rotational Monitoring: Capturing turbine speeds or other critical rotational velocities with magnetic pickups
Can this module be used in a Remote I/O rack?
Yes. It is compatible with both local and expansion baseplates within the Series 90-30 architecture that support option modules.
Does it support both 5V and 24V encoders?
Yes. The IC693APU300 accepts 5 V TTL encoder signals as well as 10–30 V industrial proximity sensors and encoders, eliminating the need for external level-shifting hardware.
