Description

Product Description

The IC693PRG300 is a portable hand-held programming device for the GE Fanuc Series 90‑30 PLC family. It provides field engineers and technicians with a direct interface to create, edit, debug, and monitor PLC logic using Statement List (STL) language. The device connects via a 15‑pin D‑type cable (IC693CBL303) that supplies power while signaling the PLC that an HHP is attached, eliminating the need for communication parameter configuration.

This programmer supports multiple operational modes, enabling full on-site diagnostics, logic modification, and I/O parameter adjustments. Its compact design, tactile keypad, and LCD display make it ideal for portable programming and maintenance tasks.
