Product Description
The IC693NIU004 is a GE Fanuc 90-30 series Ethernet Network Interface Unit. This operates as an Ethernet Global Data station (EGD), exchanging input and output data, status and control data over the network. The unit comes with 8 LEDs, an ethernet restart push button, 3 port connectors, and a shield ground connection tab. The Mac Address label can be located on the outside of the module.
The ethernet restart push button has 2 functions: performing the LED test and restart. Pressing the Ethernet restart push button will have the effect of disrupting ethernet communications, this includes any communication to other devices attached to the embedded switch.
The RS-232, 6-pin, RJ-11 port is for connecting a terminal or terminal emulator to access the station manager software on the ethernet interface. The Station Manager feature is used for testing and troubleshooting Ethernet communications. Its use is, however, optional. A IC693CBL316A cable is used for connecting the terminal, emulator or software loader to the ethernet.
- Assigning an IP address to the ENUI
- Defining subnet mask, default gateway and name server address
- Setting up Ethernet Global Data Exchange messaging between the ENIU and controller(s)
Installing the Ethernet NIU in the CPU Baseplate
- Ensure that the baseplate power is turned OFF.
- Align the module with slot 1 and the connector. Tilt the module up so the top rear hook of the module engages the slot on baseplate.
- Swing the module down until the connectors mate and the locking lever on the bottom of the module snaps into place, engaging the baseplate notch.
- Do Check the module to be sure that it is properly seated.
- Connect one or both Ethernet ports on the Ethernet Interface to the network.
- Restore power to the baseplate.

90-30 ENIU Loses its Configuration
Description
90-30 ENIU IC693NIU004, when a store is done, everything is stored, user has no choices, and everything is stored to Flash.
In addition the configuration is set to have the ENIU power up in "RUN" from Flash
When a Configuration is Stored to a 90-30 ENIU, IC693NIU004, and the keyswitch is in the B position, the FLASH portion of the Store fails. This information can be seen in the Feedback Zone of CIMPLICITY Machine Edition as follows.
Resolution
Starting a write to Flash/EEPROM of Hardware,Logic,Initial Values
Error 8544: Flash operation failed [ PLC Error: PLC Error - Insufficient privilege level [0x02][0xFE] ]
The Flash/EEPROM operation could not be completed.
If the config is not Flashed and power is cycled to the ENIU, the config is lost. To maintain the config, Store to the ENIU with the keyswitch is the A position, that way the config is Stored in nonvolatile memory and will be maintained through a power cycle.
