Product ID: IC697ALG320

product description 

The IC697ALG320 is a high-level analog output module from the series 90-70 Programmable 

Logic Controller (PLC) that is formerly manufactured by GE Fanuc, not by Emerson Automation. 

This module is designed to occupy a single slot of a 5-slot or 10-slot baseplate and draws 

current from the backplane amounting to a maximum of 1.66A (8.3 Watts) at 5VDC and 150 mA 

from the user power supply to enable current output. The IC697ALG320 comes with Four (4)

 individually configured output channels that generated voltage and current outputs specifically,

 0-20 mA / 4-20 mA current output signal and -10VDC / +10 VDC voltage output signals. It has

 built-in digital to analog converter (DAC) circuit with a resolution of 16-bits with monotonicity 

specifically, 312.5 microvolts per LSB step on voltage and 0.5 microamps per LSB step on 4 to

 20 mA. It has a maximum sequential conversion rate of the conversion rate of 2.0 ms for all analog

 output channels. This module is factory calibrated with calibration data stored with the EEPROM 

of the module. It is also provided with a continuous short circuit without harm with the output 

automatically returning to normal state once the fault is addressed. Analog output loading specifications

 include a minimum of 2000 ms for resistive loads and a maximum of 1000 picofarads for capacitive

 load when configured for Voltage operation. For current operation, output loading specifications are

 up to 700 ohms for resistive loads; maximum of 1.0 microfarad for capacitive loads, and 250 miliHenry 

for inductive loads. The module’s accuracy is affected by a specific temperature coefficient with 25

 PPM per Degree Celsius for Voltage and 50 ppm per degree Celsius for the current operation.

The IC697ALG320 Analog Output Module is a 4-channel analog output module made by GE Fanuc. 

The 4 outputs of the module can be configured for voltage or current operation individually. It provides

 bipolar or unipolar outputs with 16 bits of resolution with 14 bits of monotonicity. The update rate of

 the outputs is 2 milliseconds. It consumes a maximum of 1.66 Amps (8.3 Watts) of power at +5 Volts

 and the recommended operating voltage of this output module is 24 Volts DC. Some of the features 

of this module include a fast update rate, individually configurable output channels with individual user 

scaling, factory calibration, and isolated output circuitry. The IC697ALG320 Analog Output Module also 

offers diagnostic facilities such over range and under range detection, open-wire detection, configuration 

error detection, and module health detection.

The GE IC697ALG320 Analog Output Module is designed for use with the GE Series 90-70 programmable

 logic controllers. The basic function of the module is to receive digital data from the control processing unit 

and perform a digital to analog conversion in order to output an analog signal. It ensures that the output is

 protected against overvoltage and transient conditions. It saves the calibration data in its non-volatile 

EEPROM. The users can connect multiple IC697ALG320 Output Modules to archive up to 252 output 

channels. It is recommended to connect a maximum of 7 modules in a CPU rack and a maximum of 8 

modules in the expansion rack. The configuration software can be installed in a PC to perform output

 range selection, user scaling, and fault reporting. The user scaling provides the facilities to easily convert

 the output data into different units according to the needs of specific controllers and applications.
