Description

GE Fanuc IC697CMM711
The IC697CMM711 is a high-speed communication module designed for GE Fanuc’s PACSystems RX7i industrial automation platform, enabling seamless integration of PLCs with plant-floor networks and enterprise systems. As a core component of the RX7i series, this module supports multi-protocol communication, redundancy, and real-time data exchange, making it ideal for critical applications in manufacturing, energy, and smart infrastructure.

1. Product Description

The IC697CMM711 serves as the networking backbone for RX7i systems, connecting controllers (e.g., IC697CPU780) to I/O modules, HMIs, and cloud platforms. Key features include:
  • Multi-Protocol Support: Native support for EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, and PROFINET (via firmware update), eliminating the need for external gateways.
  • Dual Ethernet Redundancy: Two 10/100 Mbps ports with CIP Safety compliance for fault-tolerant networks, ensuring 99.99% uptime.
  • Real-Time Performance: Processes 10,000 I/O updates per second, reducing latency to <10 ms for machine-to-machine communication.
  • Compact Design: Fits 14-slot RX7i racks (e.g., IC697CHS790) with LED indicators for link status, redundancy, and error diagnostics.

2. Product Parameters

3. Advantages and Features

  • Reliability: MTBF of 800,000 hours (GE testing), with conformal coating to resist dust and vibrations in automotive factories.
  • Flexibility: Supports up to 500 concurrent connections, 2x more than legacy modules, enabling complex IoT integrations.
  • Ease of Integration: Pre-configured templates in Proficy Machine Edition reduce commissioning time by 40%.
  • Redundancy Performance: Switches to backup network in <5 ms, critical for uninterrupted production lines.

4. Application Areas and Use Cases

Industries:
  • Automotive manufacturing (robotics, assembly lines)
  • Oil & gas (pipeline SCADA, refinery control)
  • Smart cities (traffic management, water grid monitoring)
Case Study:
A Mexican automotive plant reduced downtime by 35% using the IC697CMM711 in redundant mode for its welding robot network. The module’s CIP Safety compliance and sub-10 ms latency prevented 22 production stops over 12 months, saving $2M in losses.

5. Competitor Comparison

The IC697CMM711 outperforms similar modules in:
  • Protocol Density: Native support for 3+ protocols vs. 1–2 in most alternatives.
  • Redundancy Speed: 5 ms failover vs. 20–50 ms for 竞品 modules.
  • Temperature Range: Operates at -40°C (vs. -20°C for most competitors), ideal for cold storage and outdoor applications.

6. Selection Guidelines

  • Protocol Needs: Choose the IC697CMM711 if requiring EtherNet/IP + Modbus TCP; opt for IC697CMM712 for PROFINET-only setups.
  • Redundancy: Mandatory for critical systems—pair with IC697CHS790 racks for dual-module redundancy.
  • Environment: For offshore or dusty sites, specify the -K variant (conformal coated, IP65-rated).

7. Precautions

  • ESD Protection: Handle with anti-static gloves; avoid touching circuit boards.
  • Firmware: Update via Proficy Machine Edition to unlock PROFINET support and security patches.
  • Cable Management: Use shielded Cat5e/6 cables for Ethernet; limit RS-485 cable length to 1 km to prevent signal degradation.
