The GE FANUC IC698CRE030 is a PACSystems RX7i Central Processing Unit designed for real-time control of machines, processes, and systems. It communicates with I/O and smart option modules using the VME64 Standard format over a rack-mounted backplane. It features a 600MHz Pentium-M microprocessor with 64 MB of user memory and flash memory. Here are some key features and specifications of this unit:

Key Features

1. Redundancy: Supports HSB (hot standby) redundancy for enhanced reliability.
2. Memory: Battery-backed user memory and non-volatile flash memory for program, configuration, register data, and symbolic variable storage. Bulk memory accessible via reference table %W.
3. Programming: Supports multiple programming languages including Ladder Diagram, C, Structured Text, and Function Block Diagram.
4. Symbolic Variables: Auto-located Symbolic Variables with unlimited memory.
5. Module Support: Compatible with 90-70 Series discrete and analog I/O modules, as well as VME modules.
6. Web Communication: Allows data monitoring across the web with a maximum of 16 web server/FTP connections.
7. Program Blocks: Supports up to 512 program blocks with a maximum block size of 128KB.
8. Serial Ports: Equipped with three isolated serial ports and supports serial port enabled firmware upgrades.
9. Ethernet Interface: Embedded Ethernet port for communication with the programmer and HMI devices. Enables EGD data exchange, TCP/IP communication services, station management, diagnostic tools, and time synchronization to the timeserver. Also supports a redundant IP for EGD exchange production.
