Executes single-axis motion functions locally rather than tying every servo update to the PLC scan.
Technical Summary
IC693APU301 is the base catalog identity for the Series 90-30 Motion Mate APM301. It performs single-axis positioning and motion control independently of the host CPU scan.
The APM301 supports standard positioning and follower mode for electronic gearing. A 1 ms servo-loop update and nonvolatile storage support repeatable motion execution.
Revision suffixes such as M or P must remain separate from the unsuffixed IC693APU301 identity. Installed firmware, front connectors and application records should be reviewed before exchange.

Features
Supports follower operation for electronic-gearing applications.
Stores motion programs and parameters in nonvolatile memory.
Uses two front high-density connectors for the field and motion interface.
Compatibility
- Confirm Series 90-30 rack, CPU, power budget and configuration-software support for the installed module release.
- Preserve the exact IC693APU301 label and do not silently substitute IC693APU301M, IC693APU301P or another revision.
- Record feedback device, command interface, drive scaling, home and limit wiring and both connector pinouts.
- Retain the validated motion program, parameter set and machine-unit conversion from the running application.
Replacement
- Export the PLC hardware configuration and archive all motion programs, parameters and axis scaling before shutdown.
- Remove power from the rack and motion system, then label both 24-pin connectors and all feedback paths.
- Install only the verified revision, restore the approved configuration and check home, limits and direction at reduced speed.
- Prove positioning accuracy, follower behavior and machine interlocks before production release.
FAQ
Q01
Is IC693APU301 the same order identity as IC693APU301M?
No. The M suffix is a distinct revision identity and should not be removed from procurement or service records.
Q02
What should be supplied with an IC693APU301 enquiry?
Provide the complete label, rack and CPU details, firmware or revision record, motion project and photographs of both front connectors.
Q03
Can an IC693APU301 be commissioned from the PLC program alone?
Not safely. The motion program, parameters, scaling, feedback selection and machine limit logic must also be available and verified.
Q04
What checks reduce risk before energizing a replacement IC693APU301?
Confirm connector orientation, feedback type, drive-enable wiring, home and limit inputs, axis direction and the approved travel envelope.
Q05
How should IC693APU301 readiness be demonstrated?
Use a controlled low-speed sequence to verify feedback, homing, commanded direction, positioning accuracy, follower mode and all interlocks.
