Backplane Bus Communication Velocity and Firmware Compatibility
The IC695GCG001 converts high-speed PROFINET Ethernet packets into Genius bus telegrams, maintaining backplane bus communication velocity across connected RX3i rack architectures. Internal protocol engines process cyclic and acyclic frame data while maintaining firmware flash compatibility with PACSystems RX3i CPUs, including CPE330, CPE302, CPE305, CPE310, CPU315, CPU320, and CRU320 executing firmware version 8.15 or later. Dual RJ45 ports execute Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) ring recovery without dropping field control signals, safeguarding real-time memory image exchange between field blocks and the primary controller.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the IC695GCG001 module support hot-swapping during active RX3i baseplate operation?
A: Yes, the module supports hot-insertion and hot-extraction capabilities, allowing physical field replacement without de-energizing the main rack power supply or interrupting active CPU execution on adjacent slots.
Q: How many Genius field blocks can be attached to a single IC695GCG001 gateway module?
A: The gateway module manages up to 31 active Genius I/O devices or blocks across its serial interface, transferring a maximum data payload of 1024 input bytes and 1024 output bytes.
Field Installation Guidelines
Ensure main field power and backplane power are verified prior to inserting or removing hardware. Seat the IC695GCG001 module into any standard universal I/O slot on a PACSystems RX3i rack, ensuring top and bottom rear hooks engage firmly into the backplane slots before pushing the module inward to lock the connector pins. Connect field Ethernet lines to the dual RJ45 ports using shielded Cat5e or Cat6 cables, securing cables via the integrated tie-down loop to prevent physical strain. Land the Genius serial bus wiring on the dedicated terminal connections, ensuring proper termination resistors are installed at both physical ends of the serial trunk to maintain noise rejection.
