الوصف
The GE IC695STK003 is a Power PACkage starter kit for the PACSystems RX3i series of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). It is a comprehensive, pre-packaged solution designed to provide a user with all the essential components to quickly begin developing and deploying an RX3i-based control system.
Kit Components
The kit is a single part number that bundles a variety of core RX3i hardware and software components. It typically includes:
- CPU: A high-performance Central Processing Unit (CPU) from the IC695 series, such as the IC695CPU310. This module serves as the brain of the PLC system.
- Power Supply: A power supply module, such as the IC695PSD040 (24VDC) or IC695PSA040 (AC), which provides power to the backplane and all the modules.
- Universal Backplane: A chassis or backplane, such as the IC695CHS012 (12-slot) or IC695CHS016 (16-slot), which provides the physical and electrical framework for the modules.
- Ethernet Module: An IC695ETM001 for high-speed network communication, allowing for programming and data exchange over an Ethernet network.
- Software: The necessary Proficy Machine Edition software license key and media to program and configure the PLC.
- I/O Modules: A selection of discrete and analog I/O modules to demonstrate the system’s capabilities.
- Terminal Blocks: The necessary terminal blocks for wiring the I/O modules.
Purpose
The main purpose of the IC695STK003 is to provide a complete and cost-effective starting point for users who are new to the RX3i platform. It eliminates the need to research and order each component individually, streamlining the process of getting a system up and running for a demonstration, a small pilot project, or for training purposes.
