Terminal resistance: Main and auxiliary bus connection points are equipped with terminal resistance connection points whose values include 75, 100, 120, or 150 ohms and are used to terminate a bus connection. This, in return, provides stable connection for the whole network.

Monitoring port, on the other hand, shows a 9pin D-type shell monitoring port for connecting a handheld programmer called HHp.

Features

Monitoring port convenience: GE IC670GBI102 has at its disposal a 9pin D-type shell monitoring port that connects a handheld programmer (HHp). It provides excellent convenience to the application for onsite debugging and maintenance purposes. The technician can conveniently connect a handheld programmer on-site to view live system operational statuses and diagnose faults in real-time. For instance, when the system is found abnormal, it is conveniently possible to use that port as a means of quickly locating faults within any I/O module, or as struck in some part of the program. Timely repairs may also be executed.

CPU redundancy support: GE IC670GBI102 offers a completely redundant central processing unit. Whenever there is a failure in the main CPU, the backup central processing unit automatically takes over the control task of the entire system. This helps increase the reliability of the system to a great extent and gives even industrial production the continuity it looks for. Particularly in industries such as electricity and chemical industries that have incredible demands for stabilized systems, this redundancy power can effectively avert severe production disasters that fundamentally stem from singular point failures.

Application

Automobile manufacturing industry: In the automobile body welding workshop, GE IC670GBI102 connects the fixture positioning sensors, welding robots and welding quality detection equipment. For example, it connects control signals of multiple welding robots to the main control system and receives signals from the fixture positioning sensor itself to ensure correct positioning of the body parts during welding. After the completion of the welding operation, the welding quality inspectors (ultrasonic flaw detector) transmit their inspection signal to the control systems through the GE IC670GBI102 to determine the quality level associated with the process. Where problems do arise concerning welding quality, the control system constantly monitors the welding parameters and alerts the system in case of a deviation so that there would be guaranteed quality at high productivity in the fabrication of the automobile body.

Smart building：In HVAC systems, GE IC670GBI102 connects indoor and outdoor temperature sensors, humidity sensors, air conditioning unit controllers, and ventilation equipment controllers. Room and outside temperature and humidity sensors collect data, and through GE IC670GBI102, this signal is transmitted to the building management system (BMS). The BMS is then in charge of starting/stopping the air conditioning device, as well as controlling its cooling, heating, and dehumidification functions, to allow the environment inside the building to be controlled at comfort levels while using as little energy as possible. For example, in summer, when the indoor temperature rises, the temperature sensor signal prompts BMS to start the air conditioning unit for cooling through GE IC670GBI102, and adjusts the dehumidification function according to the humidity conditions to maintain the comfort of the indoor environment.

Pharmaceutical: In packaging production line, GE IC670GBI102 connects the drug counting sensor, packaging material conveying motor, and heat sealing equipment controller. The drug counting sensor transmits the drug quantity information to the control system through GE IC670GBI102. The control system controls the speed of the packaging material conveying motor and the working time of the heat sealing equipment through GE IC670GBI102 ensuring that the drugs are packaged accurately and the packaging is sealed well. This kind of precise control is important to guarantee drug quality and realization of pharmaceutical production specifications (GMP).
