Built for efficient network communication, the GE Fanuc Emerson IC693BEM340 is a FIP (Factory Instrumentation Protocol) Bus Controller Module designed to interface a Series 90-30 I/O network with the system’s central PLC. It is installed in the same rack as the programmable logic controller and powered from the same supply, ensuring synchronized operation and simplified system integration. The module enables high-speed data exchange and coordinated control between distributed I/O devices and the main controller. The IC693BEM340 may possibly be implemented across industrial automation environments in North America, Europe, Asia, and other global facilities utilizing GE Fanuc Series 90-30 architectures.
