GE IC200UDD104-BG – 28-Point DC Micro PLC Controller | VersaMax Micro Series
Engineering Background
The GE IC200UDD104-BG is a member of GE Automation & Controls’ VersaMax Micro family — a purpose-built line of compact programmable logic controllers engineered for cost-sensitive, space-constrained industrial applications. The VersaMax Micro platform was developed to bridge the gap between relay-based control and full-scale PLC systems, delivering deterministic scan performance and robust I/O handling in a DIN-rail-mountable form factor.
Product Positioning
The IC200UDD104-BG targets OEM machine builders, panel integrators, and plant engineers who require a reliable, field-proven micro PLC with native DC I/O, onboard serial communications, and compatibility with GE’s broader PACSystems ecosystem. It is a direct replacement candidate for aging relay logic panels and legacy micro-PLC installations across discrete manufacturing, material handling, and building automation sectors.

- Deterministic Scan Performance: ~1 ms/K scan time ensures reliable real-time control for high-speed discrete applications
System Architecture & Signal Flow
The IC200UDD104-BG operates as a standalone controller. The CPU, power supply, and I/O are integrated into a single housing. Signal flow is as follows:
- Power Input: 24 VDC supplied to the unit’s power terminals
- Digital Inputs (14 × 24 VDC): Field sensors, pushbuttons, and limit switches connect directly to the input terminals; the CPU reads input states each scan cycle
- CPU Execution: Ladder logic program executes deterministically; output coil states are resolved at end of each scan
- Digital Outputs (14 × 24 VDC Transistor): Output transistors switch field loads (solenoids, relays, indicators) based on resolved coil states
- Serial Port: Asynchronous serial communication for programming, HMI data exchange, or Modbus RTU master/slave operation
Sourcing & Quality Verification
- Origin: Sourced from authorized GE Automation distributors and verified surplus channels
- Inspection Protocol: Each unit undergoes visual inspection, label verification (part number, revision, date code), and functional power-on testing prior to shipment
- Packaging: Anti-static bag + foam-lined carton; original GE packaging preserved where available

Technical FAQ
Q: Is the IC200UDD104-BG compatible with Proficy Machine Edition (PME)?
A: Yes. The VersaMax Micro series is fully supported by GE Proficy Machine Edition. Use the VersaMax Micro target type when creating your project.
Q: Can I expand the I/O beyond the onboard 28 points?
A: The IC200UDD104-BG supports connection of VersaMax Micro expansion modules (e.g., IC200MDL series) via the expansion port, allowing additional discrete and analog I/O.
Q: What is the difference between the standard IC200UDD104 and the -BG suffix variant?
A: The -BG suffix denotes RoHS compliance (restriction of hazardous substances). Functionally, the units are identical; the -BG variant uses RoHS-compliant materials in its construction.
Q: Does this unit support Modbus RTU?
A: Yes. The onboard RS-485 port can be configured for Modbus RTU master or slave operation using the serial communication function blocks in Proficy Machine Edition.
Q: What programming cable is required?
A: A standard RS-232 serial cable (or USB-to-RS232 adapter) connecting to the unit’s programming port is required. GE IC690ACC901 or equivalent is recommended.
Q: Is this unit new or refurbished?
A: Units are clearly described in the listing as new, surplus-new, or refurbished. All units are tested and verified before shipment. Contact us if you require a specific condition grade.
