Features:
- Converts one Genius bus into a PROFINET 2.3 Class A IO-Device.
- Two 10/100 Mbps RJ-45 ports link the gateway to PROFINET while the Genius side supports as many as 29 additional devices.
- Sixty-four status bits, Hot Standby and Duplex redundancy, and IC660HHM501 support improve migration and diagnostics.

IC695GCG001 Genius Scan Cycle
- Bus-controller role: The gateway scans configured Genius devices, collects their inputs, and returns controller outputs.
- Address plan: Each participant needs a unique Genius serial-bus address and the common configured baud rate.
- Device map: The downloaded gateway map determines which Genius data becomes PROFINET I/O.
- Bus boundary: A Genius cable, termination, polarity, or device fault can interrupt downstream data while Ethernet remains linked.
IC695GCG001 PROFINET Relationship
- Device class: The gateway operates as a PROFINET 2.3 Class A IO-Device under an RX3i PNC controller.
- Production exchange: Mapped Genius data is transferred at the production rate configured for the PROFINET relationship.
- Network ports: The two RJ-45 interfaces provide the 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connection used by the controller.
- Name assignment: The physical gateway must carry the same PROFINET device name referenced in the controller project.
IC695GCG001 Fault Isolation
- Status banks: Two 32-bit banks expose 64 status indications to controller logic.
- Path separation: Compare Genius bus status with PROFINET relationship status to identify which side stopped exchanging data.
- Local indicators: Use the module LEDs before disturbing either network so the original fault state is preserved.
- Hand-held check: An IC660HHM501 can confirm Genius device addressing and bus health independently of PROFINET.
IC695GCG001 Startup Sequence
- Genius first: Set the gateway address, baud rate, cable termination, and downstream device list.
- PROFINET second: Assign the device name and controller relationship, then download the hardware configuration.
- Data confirmation: Compare live Genius inputs with the mapped PROFINET submodule data before enabling outputs.
- Redundant systems: Verify the supported Hot Standby or Duplex arrangement on both controller paths before transfer testing.
