ICU-M3

The ICU-M3 is a high-performance processor card for GA BlueLine² systems. It has two internal Ethernet controllers for redundant communication with vibration acquisition cards as well as two further controllers for redundant external communication. The computing power, doubled compared to the previous model, enables complex control functions with cycle times < 1 ms.
