Product Description
Product Overview
The General Electric IC200CMM020 is a Modbus RTU Master Serial Communications Module from the GE Fanuc VersaMax Series, designed to enable serial communication within a VersaMax I/O station controlled by a Genius Network Interface Unit (NIU). Manufactured by GE, now under Emerson Automation Solutions following the 2019 acquisition of GE Intelligent Platforms, this module supports Modbus RTU protocol over an RS-485 serial port, facilitating data exchange with external devices such as controllers, readers, and variable frequency drives (VFDs). It is suited for industrial automation applications in manufacturing, power generation, and process control, allowing up to two such modules per I/O station for enhanced connectivity.
