Detailed data
GE IC670GBI002 Genius Bus Interface Unit
The Genius Bus Interface Unit (IC670GBI002 or IC697GBI102) connects field control I/O modules to a host PLC or computer via the Genius Bus. It can exchange up to 128 bytes of input data and 128 bytes of output data with the host per Genius Bus scan. It can also handle Genius datagram communications.
The intelligent processing capabilities of the Genius Bus Interface Unit allow features such as fault reporting, selectable input and output defaults, analog scaling and analog range selection to be configured for use by the modules within the station. In addition, the Genius Bus Interface Unit performs diagnostic checks on itself and its I/O modules and forwards diagnostic information to the host (if configured for fault reporting) and to the handheld monitor.
The Genius Bus Interface Unit can be used for buses controlled by redundant CPUs or bus controllers. It can also be used for dual buses.
The Bus Interface Unit is mounted on the Bus Interface Unit Terminal Block. If necessary, it can be removed and replaced without removing the wiring or reconfiguring the I/O stations.
Bus Interface Unit Terminal Block
The Bus Interface Unit Terminal Block supplied with the BIU has power cord and single or dual communication cable connections. It has built-in bus switching circuitry that allows the Bus Interface Unit to be used on dual (redundant) Genius buses (no external bus switching module required). The Bus Interface Unit Terminal Block stores the configuration parameters selected for the station.
I/O Modules
There are many types of field control I/O modules to meet various application requirements. The modules can be installed and removed without disturbing the field wiring. One or two I/O modules can be installed on the I/O terminal block.
Micro Field Processor
The Series 90 Micro Field Processor (MFP) is a micro PLC that provides local logic within a field control station. The Micro Field Processor is the same size as a field control I/O module and occupies one of the eight available I/O slots in a field control station.
MFP features include:
-Compatible with Logicmaster 90-30/20/Micro programming software, revision 6.01 or higher.
-Alarm processor
-Password protection
-Built-in communications port supporting Series 90 protocols (SNP and SNPX)
The Micro Field processor requires a Genius Bus Interface Unit revision 2.0 or higher.
