GE IC693CHS391J CPU Baseplate / Main Baseplate

FAQ

Q1: What is the GE Fanuc IC693CHS391J used for?
The IC693CHS391J is used as the main CPU rack in GE Fanuc Series 90-30 PLC systems. It provides the physical mounting structure and electrical backplane connections for CPUs, power supplies, and I/O modules.

Q2: How many modules can be installed on the IC693CHS391J?
The baseplate provides 10 slots, including one CPU slot, one power supply slot, and nine slots for I/O or option modules.

Q3: Which CPUs are compatible with the IC693CHS391J?
The IC693CHS391J supports GE Fanuc Series 90-30 modular CPUs, including CPU331, CPU340, CPU341, and other compatible Series 90-30 CPU modules.

Q4: Can the IC693CHS391J connect to expansion racks?
Yes. The baseplate includes a 25-pin female D-sub expansion connector that allows connection to expansion or remote baseplates for larger PLC configurations.

Q5: What power supply is required for the IC693CHS391J?
The IC693CHS391J does not contain an integrated power supply. A compatible GE Fanuc Series 90-30 power supply module must be installed in the dedicated leftmost power supply slot.

Q6: How much internal power does the IC693CHS391J consume?
The baseplate consumes approximately 420 mA at 5 VDC from the installed power supply system.

Q7: What is the difference between a CPU baseplate and an expansion baseplate?
A CPU baseplate such as the IC693CHS391J contains a dedicated CPU slot and acts as the main PLC rack. Expansion baseplates do not contain CPU slots and are used to increase available I/O capacity.

Q8: What should be checked before replacing an IC693CHS391J?
Before replacement, verify the Series 90-30 CPU type, installed power supply rating, module slot arrangement, expansion rack configuration, DIP switch settings, and all connected field wiring to ensure the PLC system restarts correctly.
