IC693APU302 GE Axis Positioning Module

The IC693APU302 is a dual Axis Positioning Module (APM) primarily used as a motion and position control component. This module is capable of controlling Two (2) axes or Two (2) servo motors for implementing simultaneous control of motion and position. This module is an intelligent module that can be configured to operate in standard and follower mode. With standard mode, the module operates and integrates control with the user logic present in the PLC memory to implement high-performance control. With Follower mode, the module delivers high-performance electronic gearing for master and slave applications. This module is downloaded with a configuration that is developed using the Motion programmer software package or the VersaPro software with a minimum software version of 1.1. The module’s front panel is installed with Two (2) motion axes ports via the 9-pin D-shell connectors and Two (2) 25-pin high-density ports designed to accommodate servo connections. Custom cables may be used to establish a connection to the module however, pre-assembled cables may also be acquired for faster wiring and termination. These cables include IC693CBL311 with a length of 10 feet/3 meters; IC693CBL319 with a cable length of 3 feet/1 meter; IC693CBL317 with a length of 10 feet/3 meters along with an 8” external shield pigtail and IC693CBL320 with cable length of3 feet/1 meter and an 8” external shield pigtail. Compatible Series 90-30 for use with the IC693APU302 dual-axis APM are CPU 311, CPU 313, and CPU 323 wherein up to Three (3) APM modules can be installed and CPU 331 or higher that allows installation of up to Eight (8) APM modules with Three (3) instances per baseplate.
