The IC695PNS001 is a high-performance PROFINET Scanner (PNS) module designed for the GE PACSystems RX3i platform. This module serves as the critical interface between a PROFINET I/O controller and remote RX3i universal I/O racks, facilitating seamless data exchange and network management across industrial automation environments.

Features

  • Connects remote RX3i I/O racks to PROFINET IO-Controllers.
  • Four switched Ethernet ports: two RJ-45 (10/100/1000 Mbps) and two SFP cages for flexible media support.
  • Supports daisy-chain, star, and ring (MRP) network topologies.
  • Integrated SD card slot for IO-Device name transfer and configuration backup.
  • USB Micro-B port for firmware updates via WinLoader.
  • Provides 32 input status bits and 32 output control bits for system diagnostics.

Applications

  • Distributed I/O: Enables remote backplane connectivity for RX3i and legacy Series 90-30 I/O.
  • Plant Control: Integrates field devices with PACSystems CPUs including CPE305, CPE310, CPU315, and CPU320.
  • High-Availability Systems: Supports redundant media topologies for critical manufacturing processes.
  • Long-Distance Networking: Fiber optic capability via SFP modules for geographically dispersed facilities.

Installation Guidelines

  • The module must be installed within a suitable industrial enclosure to protect against live electrical parts.
  • Install in Slot 1 or 2 of an RX3i universal backplane, or Slot 6 of an RX3i 7-slot backplane.
  • Ensure power is disconnected before inserting or removing the module from the rack.
  • Use protective gloves or pliers when handling SFP modules if the ambient temperature exceeds 40 degC, as SFP devices may reach temperatures above 70 degC.
  • Keep protective covers on all unused SFP ports to prevent debris ingress.
  • Assign an I/O Device Name using a DCP tool (e.g., Proficy Machine Edition Discovery Tool) prior to network operation.

FAQ

How many Ethernet ports are available on the IC695PNS001?

The module features four Ethernet ports: two 8-conductor RJ-45 ports for copper connections and two SFP cages for user-supplied fiber or copper SFP transceivers.

What network topologies are supported?

The module supports flexible network architectures including linear, star, daisy-chain, and ring (redundant media) topologies.

What is the purpose of the USB port?

The USB Micro-B port is dedicated to firmware updates using the WinLoader utility. It is not intended for permanent connection or standard data communication.

Can I replace the module without re-configuring via software?

Yes, the module supports the transfer of the IO-Device Name to a new unit using an SD card, which simplifies replacement procedures in the field.
