It permits DC300, AC2000, and TX 7 DC2000 drives to be controlled from Series 90-70 PLC RX 8 application programs. (D CONNECTORS NOT USED) GE Drive systems drives communicate using one (or both, in some cases) of two types of network protocol: MODULE FUNCTION DLAN, a multidrop serial protocol GE DRIVES DLAN INTERFACE DLAN+ , a high speed protocol based on Arcnet MODULE: IC697BEM763 The Series 90-70 DLAN or VME DLAN Interface mod- LABEL: ule can operate as either a DLAN or DLAN+ controller. 44A726758-139R02 However, a single module cannot be both a DLAN and DLAN+ controller at the same time. If the application requires both DLAN and DLAN+ devices, two DLAN or VME DLAN Interface modules must be used.

If the PLC system has CPU rack) or the Bus Receiver Module (in a Series 90-70 more than one rack, a Bus Receiver Module (BRM) must expansion rack) must be occupied. If any of these slots be located in slot 1 of each expansion rack. are empty, the Series 90-70 DLAN or VME DLAN Inter- face module(s) cannot communicate across the backplane to the PLC CPU or Bus Receiver Module. Note Version A of the Bus Transmitter Module must be installed to the right of all other GE Fanuc modules. There must be no empty slots between the Bus Transmitter Module and the CPU module. DLAN/VME DLAN Interface Module 3 GFK-0728A Installing a DLAN Interface Module Note The DLAN or VME DLAN Interface To install a Series 90-70 DLAN or VME DLAN Interface module has a hardware watchdog timer module, refer to the installation section of the Series that is periodically reset by the module 90-70 DLAN/DLAN+ Interface User’s Manual or the VME software. If the watchdog timer expires, DLAN/DLAN+ Interface User’s Manual. Following is a the module stops functioning and the basic description of the module.
