Technical Specifications

• Slots Configuration:
  • Power Slot: A unique slot designed to accommodate a power module, located on the left side of the baseplate. This slot is not numbered.
  • CPU/Special Option Slot (Slot 1): This slot is specifically designed to house a CPU module or a special option module such as the FIP Remote I/O Scanner (IC693BEM330). Marked as “CPU/1.”
  • I/O or Option Slots (Slots 2 and above): Slots 2 and above have unique dimensions and types, supporting I/O or option modules.
  • Expansion Connector: A 25-pin D-sub female connector located at the right end of the baseplate, allowing connection to expansion or remote baseplates.
• Compatibility:
  • Compatible with standard 90-30 series I/O modules and specialized modules.
  • Supports CPU modules such as those from the 331, 340, 341, and 350 series or higher.
• Power Requirements:
  • Requires a dedicated power module for operation.
• Physical Dimensions:
  • Dimensions and weight may vary based on specific models and configurations, but generally aligns with the standard 90-30 series form factor.
