The GE IC693PCM300 is a programmable coprocessor module (PCM) designed to extend the processing and communication capabilities of GE Fanuc Series 90-30 PLC systems. Unlike standard I/O cards, this module functions as an auxiliary processor, enabling advanced application handling, communication tasks, and customized logic execution. With support for C and MegaBasic programming, it empowers engineers to implement sophisticated control strategies or interface with serial devices such as printers, barcode readers, scales, and terminals.
