Genesis II Installation Instructions

2-4 Dierence Data

This paragraph contains dierence data unique to installation of the MPCII Mid Points Controller,

Genesis II System REMs and related devices. Installation instructions provided in Section 2-3 are

applicable except where stated otherwise.

2-4.1 REM Limitations

The following limitations apply to the installation of REMs:

• A Genesis II Direct Digital Controller must have Version 4 firmware or greater installed to support

REM Modules.

• For pre-version 5 controllers, a GENII RMI Remote Module Interface is required to connect REM

Modules. Refer to datasheet DS15.01 GENII RMI Remote Module Interface for more information.

• Gen2Config v4.0 or greater must be used to configure a Genesis II Direct Digital Controller that has

REM Modules connected to it.

• REM units designed for DIN rail mounting should be mounted on DIN rails in cabinets approved for

switchgear or industrial control equipment, with the exception of the GENII WMI (See 2-4.2).

Gen2Config V4.0 or greater automatically configures the Genesis II Series digital controller, and produces a printout

which lists the types and quantities of REMs that can be used with a given Genesis II Series digital controller.

The following information provides generalised REM type/quantity requirements that can be used for planning

purposes.

NOTE

• Up to 15 REMs can be connected to a single Genesis II Direct Digital Controller or MPCII Mid Points

Controller, with one exception – the MP REMs. The MP REM can only be addressed between 1 and 8

and only 8 MP REMs can be used.

2-4.2 Installation of GENII WMI Wireless Module Interface

Follow the General Installation Guidelines (2-3.2) except:

• Do not install the GENII WMI inside a fully enclosed metal switchboard.

• The GENII WMI should be mounted within a 20 metre radius of all SENRx Modules from which it will

be receiving data.
