Product Details

1. Product Overview

The IC200CPUE05 is a mid-size PLC CPU in GE Fanuc's (now Emerson Automation Solutions) VersaMax family  . Installed in slot 0 of the VersaMax main rack, it executes the user control program, manages local and expansion I/O, and provides three integrated communication ports: a 10Mbps Ethernet (RJ-45), an RS-232 serial port and an RS-485 serial port.

The CPU uses a 32-bit RISC processor with a typical Boolean execution speed of 0.8ms/K and supports floating-point arithmetic. The user program and hardware configuration reside in non-volatile flash memory; runtime data is held in battery-backed RAM. The 128KB configurable memory serves the application program, hardware configuration, registers (%R) and analog data areas (%AI/%AQ).

The Ethernet port supports SRTP (Simplified Remote Terminal Protocol) server mode with up to 8 connections, and EGD (Ethernet Global Data) producer/consumer communication with up to 32 configuration-based exchanges, 100 data ranges per exchange and 1400 bytes per exchange. The RS-232 port can be configured as a Local Station Manager for Ethernet diagnostics.

The CPU manages up to 64 modules (main + expansion racks) and 2048 I/O points, expandable via IC200ETM001 expansion transmitter and IC200ERM001/002 expansion receivers.

Per GE Fanuc VersaMax CPU with Embedded Ethernet Interface Important Product Information GFK-1892TW and the VersaMax PLC User Manual. The 128KB configurable memory is the official figure; some third-party sources quoting 64KB are outdated/incorrect. The Ethernet port is 10Mbps (not 10/100 autosensing); for 100Mbps bandwidth add a separate Ethernet communication module.

7. FAQ

Q1: What is the IC200CPUE05?

A: The IC200CPUE05 is a VersaMax PLC CPU installed in slot 0 of the main rack. It executes the user control program and manages I/O, with one 10Mbps Ethernet port, one RS-232 port and one RS-485 port, and 128KB configurable memory.

Q2: Is the Ethernet 10Mbps or 100Mbps?

A: The official GFK-1892TW states 10Mbps (half/full-duplex) RJ-45, not 10/100 autosensing. Some third-party sources quoting 100Mbps are incorrect. For 100Mbps bandwidth, add a separate Ethernet communication module.

Q3: Is the memory 64KB or 128KB?

A: The official document specifies 128KB configurable memory (application program, hardware config, registers and analog data areas combined). Some resellers quoting 64KB use outdated/incorrect data; please refer to GFK-1892TW.

Q4: How many modules and I/O points can it support?

A: Up to 64 modules (main + expansion racks) and 2048 I/O points. Expansion racks are added via IC200ETM001 + ERM001/002.

Q5: Which Ethernet protocols are supported?

A: SRTP (Simplified Remote Terminal Protocol) server mode with up to 8 connections, and EGD (Ethernet Global Data) producer/consumer with up to 32 configuration exchanges. Programming and monitoring use SRTP or SNP over Ethernet.

Q6: Does the program need a battery?

A: The user program resides in non-volatile flash and is retained across power cycles and CPU replacement; runtime data (e.g. register states) is held by battery-backed RAM. For long storage, check the battery periodically. Please email us if you have questions.
