IC693PCM300/301/311 Programmable Coprocessor Module (PCM)
The Programmable Coprocessor Module (PCM) is a high performance coprocessor for the Series
90-30 Modular CPUs (will not work with Embedded CPU models 311, 313, or 323). The PCM
supports the Modbus RTU and GE Fanuc CCM protocols, as well as the MegaBasic and C
programming languages. A free program for using this module as an RTU Master can be
downloaded from the GE Fanuc website. The PCM has two separate ports, both accessed on one
front panel connector.
The PCM is available in three versions. Each version is listed below with the total memory on the
board and the nominal user-available MegaBasic program memory size.
