FAQs

•  

  Is this a direct replacement for IC693CPU350?

  Yes, but you must change the CPU target in Proficy Machine Edition and recompile the program.

   

•  

  Do the two Ethernet ports have separate IPs?

  No. Both ports share a single IP address, functioning as an internal switch.

   

•  

  What battery does it use?

  It uses the IC693ACC301 or IC693ACC302 lithium battery pack mounted on the rack side.

   

•  

  Does it support Modbus TCP?

  Yes. The CPU natively supports Modbus TCP Client/Server and SRTP protocols.
