The GE Fanuc IC697ALG444 module is a 16 channel analog input current expansion module. The IC697ALG444 module comes with gold plated contacts on its headers and terminal blocks. The module is compatible with GE Fanuc Series 90-70 PLCs. The IC697ALG444 module can be used only with the IC697ACC775 terminal block. The input voltage range is -10 to +10 Volts. The current input range is 4 to 20 milliamps. The factory calibration is set at 10 Volts, ±2 millivolts. The IC697ALG444 module requires 5 Volts DC input from the PLC backplane. The GE Fanuc Series 90-70 PLC systems provides a comprehensive solution for demanding industrial applications. The Series 90-70 PLCs are based on the VME-bus standard and they can be used with numerous modules produced by many different manufacturers.

The Series 90-70 system includes several CPU modules, racks, power supplies, a rack-type I/O system, a Genius I/O system, Field Control I/O, and numerous I/O modules, including a programmable coprocessor module, a Genius I/O bus controller, a remote I/O scanner, an I/O link interface, an alphanumeric display coprocessor, and many other modules. The Series 90-70 PLCs use CPX series CPUs and offer more computing power, memory, redundancy, and communications capabilities than other modules. The Series 90-70 PLC systems support a wide range of VME analog I/O modules. The required level of redundancy can be achieved by the use of Genius I/O, Genius Modular Redundancy (GMR), and host standby systems. CPU redundancy systems can achieve hot standby CPU redundancy by connecting 2 power supplies and 2 CGR CPUs to 1 or more Genius I/I networks. The available communication options include Ethernet, Genius LAN, and serial communications.
