GE IC695ACC302-AA Communication Adapter Module
Product Overview
The GE IC695ACC302-AA is a communication adapter module designed for GE’s RX3i PACSystems, a robust platform in industrial automation. This module serves as a critical interface between the RX3i PLC and external communication networks, enabling seamless data exchange with other devices, systems, or HMIs. It supports DeviceNet communication protocol, a widely used industrial network for connecting sensors, actuators, and controllers, making it ideal for distributed control systems in manufacturing and process industries.
As part of the IC695 Series, the GE IC695ACC302-AA integrates seamlessly with RX3i backplanes like the IC694CHS790 and works with CPUs such as the IC694CPU331. It fits into any I/O slot of the backplane, drawing power through the rack and communicating with the CPU via the backplane bus. The module features a DeviceNet port with a DB9 connector, supporting communication speeds up to 500 kbps and allowing connection to up to 64 nodes on the network.
Built to withstand harsh industrial conditions, the GE IC695ACC302-AA operates in temperatures from -20°C to 60°C and humidity up to 95% (non-condensing). It features EMI/RFI filtering and galvanic isolation (500 V AC) to protect against electrical noise and ground loops, ensuring reliable communication even in environments with large motors or high-voltage equipment. Though it is a legacy model, the GE IC695ACC302-AA remains vital for maintaining older RX3i systems, allowing businesses to extend the life of their automation infrastructure without costly full upgrades.

Main features and advantages
DeviceNet protocol support: The IC695ACC302-AA enables RX3i systems to communicate via the DeviceNet protocol, a popular choice for industrial automation due to its simplicity, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. This allows seamless integration with a wide range of DeviceNet-compatible sensors, actuators, and controllers from various manufacturers.
High-speed communication: The module supports communication speeds up to 500 kbps, enabling fast data exchange between the RX3i PLC and network devices. This is crucial for applications requiring real-time control and monitoring, such as robotic systems or high-speed conveyor lines.
Galvanic isolation: The IC695ACC302-AA features 500 V AC galvanic isolation, protecting against electrical noise and ground loops that can disrupt communication. This ensures reliable data transmission in noisy industrial environments with large motors, welding equipment, or other sources of electrical interference.
Wide temperature range: The module operates in temperatures from -20°C to 60°C, making it suitable for use in harsh environments such as cold storage facilities, outdoor installations, or industrial ovens. This durability reduces the need for additional environmental protection, saving costs and simplifying installation.
Easy configuration: The IC695ACC302-AA can be configured using GE’s Proficy Machine Edition software, allowing users to set parameters such as network speed, node address, and I/O mapping. This simplifies setup and reduces commissioning time compared to manual configuration methods.
Compatibility with legacy systems: As a legacy module, the IC695ACC302-AA is fully compatible with older RX3i systems, allowing businesses to maintain and upgrade existing automation infrastructure without replacing the entire system. This extends the lifespan of legacy equipment and reduces upgrade costs.

Installation and maintenance
Pre-installation preparations: Verify that the IC695ACC302-AA is compatible with your RX3i backplane (e.g., IC694CHS790) and CPU (e.g., IC694CPU331). Ensure there is an empty I/O slot in the rack. Power off the system and disconnect all power sources. Align the module with the slot and push firmly until it clicks into place. Connect the DeviceNet cable to the DB9 connector on the module, ensuring proper termination with a GE IC695TER300 resistor at both ends of the network.
Maintenance suggestions: Inspect the IC695ACC302-AA monthly for loose connections or signs of damage to the DeviceNet cable. Tighten terminal screws to ensure good contact. Check the status LEDs on the module: a solid green LED indicates normal operation, while a flashing or red LED may indicate a communication fault. Use diagnostic tools in Proficy Machine Edition to monitor network activity and troubleshoot issues. If the module fails, replace it with a spare IC695ACC302-AA stored in a dry, cool area (10–30°C).
