Using the IC697CMM742 with PLC CPU
Versions 4.12 - 5.50
The IC697CMM742 Ethernet Interface (Type 2) is designed for high-performance operation and
convenient installation with IC697 PLC CPU versions 6.00 and later. These PLC CPUs recognize
and support the Ethernet Interface (Type 2), and provide the high throughput demanded by this
product.  GE Fanuc recommends use of  IC697 PLC CPUs with version 6.00 and later firmware
to obtain the full capabilities of the Ethernet Interface (Type 2).
Versions 1.10 and later of the Ethernet Interface (Type 2) also provide restricted operation with
IC697 PLC CPUs running firmware versions 4.12 through 5.50. These notes describe the
necessary Ethernet Interface configuration and restricted operation with these PLC CPUs.
The Ethernet Interface (Type 2) cannot be used with PLC CPU firmware versions prior to 4.12.
Ethernet Interface Installation and Configuration
The Ethernet Interface (Type 2) is installed in the main PLC rack as described in the Installation
chapter.
IC697 PLC CPU firmware versions 4.12 though 5.50 do not accept PLC configuration data for
the Ethernet Interface (Type 2).  Thus, this Ethernet Interface cannot be configured as described
in the Installation chapter. An alternative method is provided below; this procedure uses a user-
supplied computer terminal or equivalent plus the Station Manager software within the Ethernet
Interface to enter the necessary configuration data. The Station Manager is completely described
in  GFK-1186, TCP/IP Ethernet Communications for the Series 90 PLC Station Manager
Manual
. Please refer to this manual for complete details.
