The IC697CPX935 is a Single-Slot PLC CPU equipped with three built-in serial ports. It allows real-time system control via VMEC.1 format, linking with diverse “smart option” modules via a backplane. This control can be facilitated using a three-position switch or compatible software on a connected computer.

It features a 96MHz microprocessor for floating point calculations every 0.4 microseconds, supporting 12K I/O and up to 8K analog I/O. The device incorporates one megabyte of onboard RAM, flash memory, and onboard firmware.

Configuration can be done via MS-DOS or software in Win 95 or Win NT, connecting to a programming computer without needing DIP switches or jumpers. For safe operation in higher temperatures, it requires a 70 CFM cooling fan.
