Product Features

Redundant Hot Standby Capability: If the active controller fails, the system can smoothly switch to the stand-by processor and continue to operate the systemm. They were written in such a way that switching between controllers occurred in 1 logic scan at most, resulting in a minimum switching time of 3.133 ms.

Powerful Processing Performance: Equipped with a 1GHz Celeron M processor that ensures high-speed processing capabilities, allowing GE IC695CRU320 to handle complex control logic and algorithms, and enabling it to provide fast real-time response that is vital in applications with higher criticality levels and large and complex applications.

Flexible Communication Protocols: GE IC695CRU320 has two serial communication interfaces and can be used with RS232 and RS485 serial communication standardsm. It enables smooth data interchange as well as interaction with external devices and systems by making it possible for integration into several industrial control networks

Installation

Mounting: GE IC695CRU320 processor engages the RX3i backplane and is plugged directly into the Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) slots. To check that the module has been firmly inserted and that it must be well connected. Other modules on the bus are connected through PCI version 2.2 or higher, allowing for any data to be transmitted quickly and shared with the backplanem.

Power incorrect: Insert the power supply cords according to the required voltage and current requirements. It needs 3.3V DC at 1A and 5V DC at 1.2A to work properly so be careful about the polarity of power supply so as to avoid reverse connection, and make sure that the power supply voltage should be within the normal range.

Communication Connection: For the two serial ports, connect devices through the communication cables. Verify that the communication parameters (baud rate, data bits, stop bits, and parity bits) are appropriately configured. If other communication modules or Ethernet communication are adopted, install and configure according to their respective installations.

Troubleshooting

Redundancy Switching Failure: Check whether the redundant link between active and standby processor is connected and configured. GE IC695CRU320 synchronous links should be properly configured and physically connected. Next, check the system settings and programming to make sure the redudancy switching conditions and logic are right. Test the redundancy function, if feasible, in a non-fault simulated environment to locate the system fault.

Communication Error : A communication error is usually caused due to issue with the serial ports, so check if the communication cables are properly attached or not, and also check if it is not damaged or so. Then ensure you have the communication parameters setting is correct, such as baud rate, data bits, stop bits, and parity bits. Replace the communication cable or try connecting the modem to an alternate device. You can also check the network configuration and relevant module settings for other communication problems, for example Ethernet communication problems.

Program Execution Abnormality: If the program execution is abnormal, the first step is to check whether the program code has errors or logical contradictions. Check the running status of the program and values of variables using the Debugging tools of the programming software. Update the program to the latest version if necessary, or modify and correct according to actual situation. You can also monitor the memory usage to check if the program has not used too much random access memory space when running.

Application range

Industrial Automation: GE IC695CRU320 can be utilized in the manufacturing industry to automate and oversee the performance of various production equipment, including assembly lines, CNC machines, and robotic arms. It provides redundant control to ensure the continuous operation of the production line and improves production efficiency, product quality and production safety.

Energy sector: GE IC695CRU320 can monitor the operating status of power equipment in real-time, control the power generation and distribution process, and optimize the energy management system by communicating with sensors and actuators. Power grid networks have a redundant design that guarantees their stability and reliability.
