Channel update rate: 1 second typical.

Energy power consumption: 4.6 watts maximum (may vary by module type).

Product Features

Highly Compatible: Compatible with GE handheld displays and is part of a shipment that includes a host handheld display.

Easily Upgradable: Supports many third-party and customer-developed templates for easy upgrading of existing systems.

Easy to Connect: Provides an easy-to-use point-and-click data connection with the ability to connect to real-time data.

Highly flexible: allows users to create custom interfaces to utilise non-standard data sources and generate simple simulations.

Cost Effective: Products supported with COTS (Commercial Off The Shelf) cost less than shrink-wrapped products.

Global Support: Access to global sales and technical support offices that provide consulting services for a wide range of industry and application needs.

Application Scenarios

The battery pack is mainly used in handheld monitors in a variety of industrial automation and control fields, including but not limited to iron and steel, petroleum, chemical, electric power, building materials, machinery manufacturing, automotive, textile, transport and environmental protection industries. In these fields, handheld monitors are usually used to display input/output data of devices connected to the bus, diagnostic information, memory data of the central processor connected to the bus, bus scanning time and global data address.

Caution

The battery pack must always be installed in the HHM even if the HHM uses AC power.

During storage and transport, ensure that the battery pack is within the recommended temperature range.

If the battery pack needs to be replaced, be sure to use the same model and specifications as the original battery pack.

Applications

Field Service and Maintenance

In industrial settings, technicians use the GE IC660BPM500 I/O Handheld Monitor with its battery pack to troubleshoot and monitor I/O systems. For example, in a manufacturing plant, they can carry the handheld monitor to different parts of the factory floor to check the status of sensors and actuators. The battery - powered operation allows for flexibility and mobility, enabling them to quickly identify and address I/O - related issues without the need for a continuous power source.

System Installation and Commissioning

During the installation and commissioning of industrial control systems, the I/O Handheld Monitor with its battery pack is a valuable tool. Engineers can use it to verify the correct connection and operation of I/O devices such as digital and analog inputs and outputs. The battery pack ensures that the monitor can be used even in areas where power outlets may not be readily available, making the installation and commissioning process more efficient.
