PROFINET Communication and I/O Data
The IC695CEP001 provides the network interface for a supported RX3i PROFINET I/O station. Its two Ethernet ports use copper cabling and support 10/100BASE-TX communication. The specified I/O data capacity is 1024 bytes per station, divided equally between 512 bytes of input data and 512 bytes of output data.
This capacity defines the process data available for cyclic exchange with the controller. When selecting the carrier, verify that the required input and output data sizes fit within these limits and that the intended controller configuration supports the carrier.
Power Supply and USB Interface
The carrier accepts a DC supply between 19.2 and 30 VDC. Its specified power consumption is 5.25 W at 24 VDC, equivalent to approximately 0.22 A at the stated operating voltage. Power supply selection should account for the carrier’s requirements alongside those of the other installed equipment.
The Micro-B USB 2.0 connector provides a separate interface for firmware-related functions. Its presence does not establish support for every programming, configuration, or diagnostic operation; confirm the required procedure against the applicable technical documentation.
