The module converts 15-bit resolution data across 8 single-ended output channels to drive field devices using standard 4-20 mA or 0-20 mA current signals. Channel configurations update within a maximum velocity of 15 ms while optical isolation barriers maintain galvanic separation between internal backplane processing logic and external field circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHardware Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIC200ALG326\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGE Fanuc \/ Emerson\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA \/ Assembled globally\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.60 kg (1.31 lbs)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120 mm x 90 mm x 50 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 to 60 deg C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 mA max at 5 VDC (backplane current draw)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput Channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 single-ended channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput Current Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4-20 mA (default), 0-20 mA (jumper configurable)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput Resolution\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15 bits\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModule Update Rate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15 ms maximum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIsolation Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e250 VAC continuous; 1500 VAC for 1 minute\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiagnostic Support\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIntegrated diagnostics with 2 status LEDs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBackplane Bus Communication Velocity \u0026amp; I\/O Density Scaling\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IC200ALG326 module interfaces with the VersaMax high-speed backplane structure, executing 15-bit digital-to-analog signal updates without introducing processing latencies to adjacent modules. Engineers scale total I\/O density within compact panel footprints due to the low backplane power draw of 50 mA at 5 VDC. System maintainability across generation changes remains consistent because firmware flash compatibility supports operation within legacy GE Fanuc rack configurations and contemporary Emerson control nodes alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: How does the IC200ALG326 module handle output behaviors when CPU communication encounters a fault state?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The module contains configurable output default states that allow individual channels to hold their last valid state or transition to a designated minimum or maximum mA current value during a communication timeout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What physical hardware modification changes the default current output range from 4-20 mA to 0-20 mA?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Engineers configure the module channel output range between 4-20 mA and 0-20 mA by inserting or repositioning physical jumper blocks directly on the module base prior to field terminal wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Can the IC200ALG326 module be inserted into or extracted from a live VersaMax rack?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Field technicians must shut down primary system power and field loop power prior to inserting or removing the module from its carrier base to protect electronic contacts against arcing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMount the VersaMax carrier onto standard 35 mm DIN rail or directly to a metallic backplate inside the enclosure using mounting screws. Align the IC200ALG326 module housing with the carrier slots and apply firm pressure until the retention latches snap securely into position. Connect signal field wiring to the removable terminal block using shielded twisted-pair cables, keeping analog output lines separated from high-voltage AC conductors by at least 300 mm. Ground all cable shield drains at a single low-impedance earth ground bar near the enclosure entry point. Ensure operating ambient temperatures within the enclosure remain between 0 and 60 deg C to maintain signal conversion accuracy within specified limits.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GE Fanuc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44621576863843,"sku":"IC200ALG326H","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0583\/5246\/8067\/files\/215._102245fc-f148-4c92-99ea-f8be0cd6871b.jpg?v=1789435269","url":"https:\/\/www.autocontrolglobal.com\/products\/ic200alg326-ge-fanuc-versamax-analog-output-module","provider":"AutoControl Global","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
