GE Fanuc IC695CEP001 RX3i CEP Carrier (PROFINET Scanner)

Product Summary

The IC695CEP001 is an RX3i CEP Carrier that interfaces a remote node consisting of one (or two with expansion carrier) RX3i I/O modules to a PROFINET I/O Local Area Network (LAN). It functions as a PROFINET Scanner (IO-Device).

Core Specifications

• Model Number: IC695CEP001
• Module Type: RX3i CEP Carrier (PROFINET Scanner)
• Compatible System: PACSystems RX3i
• PROFINET Support: Version 2.3 Class A IO-Device
• Ethernet Ports: Two RJ-45 10/100Base-TX switched ports
• USB Port: One Micro-B (for firmware upgrades only)
• Power Requirements: 5.25 W (0.22 A) at 24 VDC (user-supplied)

Electrical & Interface Characteristics

• I/O Data Capacity: 512 bytes input + 512 bytes output per station (1024 bytes total)
• Supported Topologies: Daisy-chain/line, star, ring (with redundant media)
• Expansion Carrier: IC694CEE001 (adds one additional I/O module slot)
• Operating Temperature: 0°C to 60°C (32°F to 140°F)

Installation Guide

1. Mount the IC695CEP001 on DIN rail or panel.
2. Connect 24 VDC user power to the carrier.
3. Attach up to one RX3i I/O module directly (or two with IC694CEE001 expansion carrier).
4. Connect Ethernet cables to the two RJ-45 ports for PROFINET network integration.
5. Configure the carrier as a PROFINET IO-Device using Proficy Machine Edition and the associated PROFINET Controller.
6. Verify operation through status LEDs and network diagnostics.

Selection Guidelines

• Use IC695CEP001 for distributed PROFINET I/O nodes with one or two RX3i I/O modules.
• Pair with IC694CEE001 Expansion Carrier when two I/O modules are required in the remote node.
• Ensure compatible RX3i CPU firmware and PROFINET Controller (e.g., IC695PNC001) versions are used.
