The GE Fanuc IC697PCM711 is a single-slot programmable coprocessor module designed to perform high-speed data processing and communication tasks within GE Fanuc Series 90-70 PLC systems. Powered by a 12 MHz 80C186 microprocessor, it offloads complex computational algorithms, custom protocol execution, and serial interface management from the main CPU. It features two built-in serial ports supporting RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 physical interfaces and accommodates up to 512 KB of optional expansion memory for intensive data handling.

Processing and Memory Architecture

Driven by its integrated 12 MHz 80C186 16-bit microprocessor, the IC697PCM711 operates independently of the host CPU's scan cycle. This dedicated processing capability allows the module to handle real-time mathematical operations, ASCII data formatting, and custom protocol conversions without degrading system sweep speed. Memory capacity can be expanded using plug-in memory boards, supporting up to 512 KB of optional expansion memory to store user-written programs and large data buffers.

Serial Communication Capabilities

The module includes two configurable serial ports capable of operating under RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 electrical standards. These ports facilitate bidirectional communication with operator interfaces, bar code readers, printers, computers, and third-party serial devices. By handling frame parsing and baud rate management locally, the coprocessor module ensures reliable serial data transfer across complex automation networks.
