10/100 BASE-T · MODBUS TCP OR EGD · UP TO 64 I/O MODULES
Emerson IC200EBI001 VersaMax Ethernet Network Interface Unit
The Ethernet head module for a VersaMax remote I/O station using either Modbus TCP or Ethernet Global Data.
Overview
IC200EBI001 connects a VersaMax remote I/O station to Ethernet and controls the attached local and expansion I/O modules. It can operate as a Modbus TCP server or as an Ethernet Global Data station.
Protocol mode is exclusive: the ENIU runs Modbus or EGD, not both at the same time. Later releases support as many as 64 I/O modules across the main station and seven expansion racks, subject to the installed hardware and release.
Specifications
Features
Remote-station control
Acts as the Ethernet head and controller for the attached VersaMax I/O set.
Two protocol choices
Supports a Modbus TCP server role or EGD exchange mode as configured.
Expandable station
Later releases extend the node beyond the main rack to seven expansion racks.
Visible network state
Power, health, fault, LAN and protocol-status LEDs support first-line diagnostics.

Applications
Modbus remote I/O
Presenting VersaMax I/O data to an approved Modbus TCP client.
EGD station
Producing and consuming the configured Ethernet Global Data exchanges.
Legacy node restoration
Rebuilding an existing ENIU station with its exact network and module-order evidence.
Lifecycle
Archive
Save IP settings, protocol mode, exchange map, I/O order and controller configuration.
Rebuild
Install the documented power supply, carriers and expansion path before restoring network identity.
Commission
Confirm link, unique addressing, correct inventory, clean faults and end-to-end I/O operation.
FAQ
Can IC200EBI001 run Modbus TCP and EGD at the same time?
No. The ENIU is configured for one of those operating modes at a time.
Which data should accompany a IC200EBI001 enquiry?
Provide the complete label, firmware, IP parameters, protocol mode, exchange map, rack layout and power-supply identity.
How many I/O modules can IC200EBI001 manage?
Release 1.1 and later documentation supports up to 64 modules and seven expansion racks; confirm the actual hardware release.
What commonly causes a replacement IC200EBI001 to remain offline?
Check power, the RJ-45 link, duplicate or incorrect IP settings, protocol selection, controller configuration and station-module order.
How is IC200EBI001 accepted after a swap?
Verify all status LEDs, Ethernet communication, the expected I/O inventory, fault reporting and every mapped input and output.
