The Field Control IC670MDL742 DC Negative Output Module is a GE Fanuc 5-, 12-, and 24-volt DC rated output module with 16 negative logic discrete outputs.

The outputs are used as current-sucking outputs to switch the load to the negative side of the DC power supply.Power for the IC670MDL742 DC Negative Output Module is provided by the bus interface module.

It is recommended that an external DC power module be used to provide the power required by the load. The module contains a 10 ampere rated fuse for connection to an external power source.

There is a clear potion on the top of the module for clearly visible LED indicators.

The IC670MDL742 DC Negative Output Module performs processing through the bus interface unit.

The bus interface module also helps to collect output data from a host device or processor.

Its PWR indicator LED can be used to check that the module’s backplane power is present and that the fuse is not blown.

The module’s logic power is received from the Bus Interface Unit. An optoisolator isolates the module’s logic components from the field outputs.

It consists of FETs powered from an external supply to absorb the current flowing through the load.

The outputs are capable of absorbing up to 0.5 amps per point. The total steady-state load for the entire module is 8 amps.

The IC670MDL742 DC Inverting Output Module has one set of outputs and does not provide isolation between points in the set.

It is supplied with an easily removable fuse to protect the outputs from high currents or reversal of power supply polarity.
