GE IC698CPE020-JX PACSystems RX7i Central Processing Unit

The GE Fanuc IC698CPE020-JX is a high-performance, single-slot Central Processing Unit (CPU) belonging to the PACSystems RX7i controller family. Utilizing a robust 700 MHz Intel Pentium III processor, this module is purpose-built to handle massive data arrays, floating-point math, and intensive automation algorithms that standard PLCs cannot manage alone.

Operating on a standard VME64 backplane, the CPE020-JX allows mid-to-large scale industrial operations to unify their logic, human-machine interfaces (HMI), and networking. A standout attribute of the "JX" variation is its specialized component firmware layout and hardened resilience against internal memory fragmentation, ensuring uninterrupted execution of critical control loops.

1. Dual-Bus VME64 Architecture

The IC698CPE020-JX utilizes a high-speed VME64 backplane interface. This permits lightning-fast data transfers to I/O modules and co-processors, eliminating typical communication bottlenecks when managing thousands of real-time field variables.

2. High-Density Embedded Communication

Unlike lower-tier controllers requiring external network cards, this CPU boasts three integrated Ethernet ports supported by an internal network switch. It accommodates SRTP, Modbus TCP/IP, and Ethernet Global Data (EGD) simultaneously.

3. Non-Volatile Flash Backup

To protect your proprietary logic from sudden power loss or long-term plant outages, the module features writing capabilities to internal flash memory, removing reliance purely on the external CMOS lithium battery for program retention.

Q: What does the "-JX" extension represent on this CPU model?

A: The "-JX" suffix represents a specific manufacturing build revision that frequently involves hardware component modifications or updated factory-loaded firmware profiles designed to resolve specific network stacking behaviors present in earlier standard variations.

Q: How do I handle firmware upgrades on the IC698CPE020-JX?

A: Firmware updates are flashed directly through the CPU’s integrated serial ports or via the embedded Ethernet connections using the PACSystems WinLoader utility. Ensure all I/O scanning is stopped and the controller is in "Stop Mode" prior to initiating a flash sequence.

Q: What type of real-time battery backup does this board require?

A: This RX7i CPU utilizes a standard smart-lithium battery pack connected via the front faceplate terminal. It keeps the volatile memory intact during power-down intervals. A front-panel LED will amber-flash when the charge falls below safe operational limits.

Do you provide global shipping services?

Yes. We have local distribution centers on all continents, which can quickly transport parts to any corner of the world.

2. What payment methods and currencies do you accept?

To make your purchasing process as simple as possible, we offer multiple payment methods including bank transfer, check, and PayPal.
