About the IC200GBI001

The IC200GBI001 is a VersaMax communication module. The module is a Genius network interface unit that

allows VersaMax I/O modules to be installed in distributed I/O architectures.

The module is designed to hold up to eight (8) I/O modules per rack* and supports the installation of up to eight (8) racks with up to 64 I/O modules.

It supports transmission speeds of 153.6 kbaud for dcs-sis.com extended network configurations; 153.6 kbaud, 76.8 Kbaud, and 38.4 Kbaud are standard.

The IC200GBI001 can accommodate a large number of I/O points, especially discrete inputs up to 1024 points; 1024 discrete outputs.

128 bytes of analogue input memory and 128 bytes of analogue output memory.

This module can manage scans of 128 bytes per scan for network inputs and 128 bits per scan for outputs.

It consumes 250 mA @ 4VDC and 10 mA @ 3.3 mA.

The IC200GBI001 is compatible with a wide range of controller systems, as the Genius protocol is supported by previous and modern controller platforms.

Compatible control systems include the 90-70 series and the PACSystem RX7i and PACSystem RX3i.

The appropriate firmware version must be loaded onto the controller and the IC200GBI001 Genius Network Interface Module.

The IC200GBI001 is equipped with dual Genius connection terminals.

The upper terminal is used as the primary Genius connection point and the lower terminal is used as a redundant port.
