IC693CMM301 Genius Communications Module (GCM)
The
Genius Communications Module
(IC693CMM301) for the Series 90-30 PLC provides global
communications on a Genius Communications bus between Series 90-30 PLCs and/or other GE
Fanuc PLCs. Series 90-70, Series Six, and Series Five PLCs can communicate on this bus through
their respective Genius Bus Controllers.
The Genius Communications bus is a token passing peer-to-peer, noise immune network optimized
to provide high speed transfer of real time control data. Up to eight Series 90-30 PLC CPUs, in
any combination, can communicate with each other over a single Genius I/O serial bus using a
standard twisted pair, shielded cable.
