Description

Product Overview

The ​​GE IC695GCG001-AA​​ is a Genius Communication Gateway module within the PACSystems RX3i platform, designed to bridge legacy Genius serial bus systems with modern PROFINET networks. This module enables seamless integration of traditional Genius I/O devices into contemporary Ethernet-based control architectures without requiring system decommissioning. Equipped with two RJ45 Ethernet ports and two Genius communication ports, the ​​IC695GCG001-AA​​ acts as a protocol translator, supporting real-time data exchange between PROFINET controllers and up to 31 Genius devices. It facilitates 2,048 bytes of I/O data (1,024 bytes input/output each), ensuring high-speed communication at 153.6 kbps. Ideal for industrial automation upgrades, the ​​GE IC695GCG001-AA​​ enhances system longevity while leveraging existing infrastructure investments in sectors like manufacturing, energy, and infrastructure management.

Key Features and Advantages

​Protocol Translation & Data Handling​​: The ​​GE IC695GCG001-AA​​ translates between PROFINET and Genius protocols, enabling legacy devices to communicate within modern networks. Its support for RTC (Real-Time Cyclic), RTA (Real-Time Acyclic), and industrial protocols (SNMP, MRP, LLDP) ensures robust data integrity and network resilience.

​Scalability and Flexibility​​: Managing up to 31 Genius devices per gateway, this module optimizes I/O density while allowing incremental system upgrades. Dual Ethernet ports support star/linear topologies and media redundancy (MRP), minimizing downtime in critical applications.

​Ease of Integration​​: Hot-swap capability (with power isolation) and SD card support for firmware/configuration backups simplify maintenance. The module operates as an I/O device under RX3i PROFINET control, enabling PLC coordination without hardware reconfiguration.

​Enhanced Reliability​​: Industrial-grade design ensures operation in harsh environments (0°C–60°C). Built-in diagnostics and configurable I/O update rates (2ms–512ms) allow fine-tuning for high-speed or energy-efficient operations.


Application Areas

  • ​Manufacturing Automation​​: Integrates legacy Genius I/O (e.g., sensors, actuators) into PROFINET-controlled assembly lines, preserving equipment while enabling real-time monitoring in automotive or electronics production.
  • ​Energy Management​​: Bridges older control systems in power plants or oil refineries to modern SCADA networks, facilitating data aggregation for efficiency optimization without full system replacement.
  • ​Infrastructure Systems​​: Used in water treatment or transportation networks to migrate Genius-based remote I/O (e.g., pump controls, valve actuators) to centralized Ethernet-based control hubs.

Installation and Maintenance

Installation Preparation: Mount in RX3i racks or panels with ≥100mm clearance for ventilation. Ensure 24VDC power (0.19A max) with isolation transformers to mitigate harmonic interference. Shielded cables are mandatory for Genius ports to prevent EMI.

Maintenance Recommendations: Perform quarterly cleaning of ventilation paths and verify firmware updates via SD card. Monitor I/O data consistency using embedded diagnostics; replace modules during planned downtime due to power-disconnect requirement for hot-swap.


Product Assurance

The ​​GE IC695GCG001-AA​​ includes a 1-year global warranty covering material and workmanship defects. Technical support includes remote diagnostics and 48-hour on-site response for critical failures. Replacement modules are available from spot inventory for urgent deployments.
