VersaMax High Density Analog I/O Compatibility Update
by Joanne Lim
VersaMax High Density Analog
I/O Compatibility Update
In June 2001 GE Fanuc
introduced 6 new High Density Analog I/O modules for VersaMax I/O. At the time of release the modules were not
yet supported by the VersaMax Genius, DeviceNet, and Profibus NIU's. This
support was planned to be included in release v2.1 VersaMax NIU firmware. The Genius NIU firmware version 2.1 was
released in August, but contrary to original plans, did not include support for
VersaMax High Density Analogs. These
NIU's will support the High Density Analogs in the future. Currently the modules are only supported by
the VersaMax CPU's and the VersaMax Ethernet NIU.
