The VersaMax Family of Products
The VersaMax family of products provides universally-distributed I/O that spans PLC and
PC-based architectures. Designed for industrial and commercial automation, VersaMax
I/O provides a common, flexible I/O structure for local and remote control applications.
The Versamax PLC provides big-PLC power with a full range of I/O and option modules.
VersaMax I/O Stations with Network Interface Modules make it possible to add the
flexibility of VersaMax I/O to other types of networks. VersaMax meets UL, CUL, CE,
Class1 Zone 2 and Class I Division 2 requirements.
As a scaleable automation solution, VersaMax I/O combines compactness and modularity
for greater ease of use. The 70-mm depth and small footprint of VersaMax I/O enables
easy, convenient mounting as well as space-saving benefits. Modules can accommodate up
to 32 points of I/O each.
The compact, modular VersaMax products feature DIN-rail mounting with up to eight I/O
and option modules per “rack” and up to 8 racks per VersaMax PLC or VersaMax I/O
Station system. Expansion racks can be located up to 750 meters from the main VersaMax
PLC or VersaMax I/O Station rack. Expansion racks can include any VersaMax I/O,
option, or communications module.
VersaMax provides automatic addressing that can eliminate traditional configuration and
the need for hand-held devices. Multiple field wiring termination options provide support
for two, three, and four-wire devices.
For faster equipment repair and shorter Mean-Time-To-Repair, the hot insertion feature
enables addition and replacement of I/O modules while a machine or process is running
and without affecting field wiring.

Power Supplies
An AC or DC Power Supply module installs directly on the CPU or NIU. The Power
Supply provides +5V and +3.3V power to the modules in the station. Additional power
supplies can be installed on special booster carriers if needed for systems where the
number of modules creates the need for a booster. The AC or DC Power Supply on the
CPU or NIU and the Power Supply that resides on the Booster Carrier must share the same
external power source.

Carriers
PDFsupply.com
Carriers provide mounting, backplane communications, and field wiring connections for
all types of VersaMax modules. I/O modules can be installed on carriers or removed
without disturbing field wiring.
There are three basic I/O Carrier types:
Terminal-style I/O carriers. Modules mount parallel to the DIN rail.
Compact Terminal-style I/O Carriers. Modules mount perpendicular to the DIN rail.
Connector-style I/O Carriers. Modules mount perpendicular to the DIN rail. These
carriers are normally used with Interposing I/O Terminals. One type of Interposing
I/O Terminals is illustrated below; other types are also available.
See chapter 4 for information about VersaMax I/O Carriers.
Terminal-style I/O carriers have 36 individual terminals for direct connection of field
wiring. Auxiliary I/O Terminal Strips are available for applications requiring additional
wiring terminals. Chapter 5 of this manual describes the VersaMax Interposing Terminals
and Auxiliary I/O Terminal Strips.

Profibus-DP Network Slave Module
The Profibus-DP Network Slave Module (IC200BEM002) is a communications module
that exchanges PLC reference table data on the Profibus network. The VersaMax PLC
CPU can read and write this data as though it were conventional bit- and word-type I/O
data.
Multiple Profibus-DP Network Slave Modules may be used in the same VersaMax PLC.
Each one can read up to 244 bytes of data from the network, and send up to 244 bytes of
output data. The total amount of combined inputs and outputs is 384 bytes.
For information about the Profibus-DP Network Slave Module, refer to the
System Profibus Network Modules User’s Manual
DeviceNet Network Control Module
The DeviceNet Network Control Module (IC200BEM103) is a communications module
that can be configured to operate as a master, as a slave, or as both simultaneously. It can
exchange up to 512 bytes of input data and 512 bytes of output data with other devices on
the DeviceNet network. The VersaMax PLC CPU can read and write this data as though it
were conventional bit- and word-type I/O data.
The Network Control Module operates as a Group 2 Only Client (master) and can
communicate only with Group 2 Slave devices. It can also operate as a Group 2 Only or a
UCMM-capable Server (slave), or as a master and slave simultaneously.

Carefully inspect all shipping containers for damage during shipping. If any part of the
system is damaged, notify the delivery service immediately. The damaged shipping
container should be saved as evidence for inspection by the delivery service. As the
consignee, it is your responsibility to register a claim with the delivery service for damage
incurred during shipment. However, GE Fanuc will fully cooperate with you, should such
action be necessary. After unpacking the VersaMax modules and other equipment, record
all serial numbers. Serial numbers are required if you should need to contact Product
Service during the warranty period of the equipment. All shipping containers and all
packing material should be saved should it be necessary to transport or ship any part of the

Conformance to Standards
Before installing VersaMax products in situations where compliance to standards or
directives from the Federal Communications Commission, the Canadian Department of
Communications, or the European Union is required please refer to GE Fanuc’s
Installation Requirements for Conformance to Standards, GFK-1179.
Thermal Considerations
The thermal performance specified for modules in this manual requires a clearance of 2
inches (5.1cm) above and below the modules and 1 inch (2.54cm) on each side of the
modules as shown below, regardless of the orientation of the DIN rail.
When using a vertical DIN rail, the CPU or NIU module must be installed at the bottom.
Individual modules have may additional clearance requirements as shown in appendix A.

DIN Rail and Panel Mounting
g
PDFsupply.com
Each rack in a VersaMax PLC or VersaMax I/O Station must be installed on a single
section of 7.5mm X 35mm DIN rail, 1mm thick. Steel DIN rail is recommended. “Rack” is
the term used for a CPU, NIU, or Expansion Receiver, plus up to 8 physically-connected
I/O carriers. The first rack in a system is called Rack 0. If there are multiple expansion
racks, Rack 0 also includes an Expansion Transmitter module installed in the leftmost
position, before the CPU or NIU.
The DIN rail used in a VersaMax installation must be electrically grounded to provide
EMC protection. The rail must have a conductive (unpainted) corrosion-resistant finish.
DIN rails compliant with DIN EN50022 are preferred.
For vibration resistance, the DIN rail should be installed on a panel using screws spaced
approximately 5.24cm (6 inches) apart. DIN-rail clamps (available as part number
IC200ACC313) can also be installed at both ends of the station to lock the modules in
position.
For applications requiring maximum resistance to mechanical vibration and shock, the
DIN-rail-mounted carriers should also be mounted on the panel. Panel mount holes can be
located on the panel by using the carrier as a template, or by following the dimensions
shown in appendix A. Pre-drill the mounting holes and install the CPU, NIU, ERM , and
carriers using M3.5 (#6) screws.
