4. Product Introduction
The GE IC695ETM001 is an Ethernet module for the PACSystems RX3i platform. It provides two 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports for high-speed communication with HMIs, SCADA systems, other PLCs, and networked devices.
This module handles TCP/IP, SRTP, and Modbus TCP protocols while supporting up to 16 simultaneous SRTP server connections. It is commonly used to add network connectivity to RX3i CPUs that do not have built-in Ethernet.

5. Troubleshooting Quick Reference
| Symptom | Possible Cause | Relevance to this Part | Quick Check Method | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| No link lights | Cable or switch issue | ✅ High | Test cable with known good device | Replace cable or check switch port |
| Cannot ping module | Wrong IP address or subnet | ✅ High | Use Station Manager to check IP config | Correct IP settings in software |
| Module fault LED on | Configuration error | ✅ High | Check fault table in programming software | Reconfigure and restart module |
| Intermittent connection | Network congestion or duplex mismatch | ✅ Medium | Check switch settings and cable quality | Set switch ports to auto-negotiate |
| High packet loss | EMI or poor grounding | ✅ Medium | Verify grounding and cable shielding | Improve cable routing and grounding |
Contact technical support with module LED status, network diagnostics, and IP configuration details if problems persist.
6. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How many Ethernet ports does the IC695ETM001 have? It has two independent 10/100 Mbps RJ45 ports. You can use them for separate networks or for redundancy.
Can this module be used with any RX3i CPU? Yes. It works with all RX3i CPUs installed in a universal backplane. Confirm your CPU firmware version supports the required features.
Does it support Modbus TCP? Yes, as both client and server. Configure channels in your project for Modbus TCP communication.
Is the ETM001 hot-swappable? Yes, when used with compatible RX3i systems and following proper hot-swap procedures.
What is the difference between IC695ETM001 and newer Ethernet modules? The ETM001 is a proven, widely deployed module. Newer options may offer higher performance or additional features, but the ETM001 remains fully supported for most applications.
Why buy New Surplus? These modules are genuine OEM stock that were never field-installed. Each unit is tested in an RX3i rack prior to shipment, providing reliable performance at a lower cost than current factory pricing.
How do I set the IP address? Use the Station Manager utility through the serial port or configure it through Proficy Machine Edition. Always document your IP settings before making changes.
