1-1.1. SYSTEMS COVERED BY THIS MANUAL Because Innotech Genesis

Systems are intended for use in a variety of applications, the systems are designed on a modular basis. Modularity provides the most economical and efficient means of adapting the system to the customer’s specific requirements. Also, in seeking to improve customer satisfaction through product improvement, Innotech often provides updates and revisions to its Genesis product line. The modularity concept and equipment revisions result in a large array of different types of hardware available to the customer.

The systems covered in this manual are the Genesis I and the Genesis II Systems. These systems are based on one or more controllers as the major control units interconnected with several ancillary units. These major control units included in this manual are:

• Genesis I Digital Controller

• Genesis II Digital Controller

• Genesis II Mid Points Controller (GENII MPC)

For purposes of explanation within this manual, a System is defined as one or more controller units interconnected with various ancillary units for the purpose of performing specific functions. A Genesis I System contains one or more Genesis I Digital Controllers as the control unit(s). A Genesis II System consists of one or more Genesis II Digital Controllers and/or GENII MPCs as the major control unit(s). Some of the ancillary units included in the Genesis Systems are (refer to the System Description Manual for descriptions of these units):

• Several types of Local Expansion Module (LEMs)

• Several types of Remote Expansion Module (REMs)

• Genesis II Multipoint Module (GENII MP REM)

1-1

Installation Instructions for Innotech Genesis Systems

The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and complete instructions for all phases of the installation of the units that comprise your Genesis System. In order to provide the clearest instructions possible with minimum confusion, instructions in this manual are based on the following approach:

• For simplicity of explanation, installation instructions in this manual are based on the

assumption the system to be installed is a typical Genesis II System containing a single Genesis II Digital Controller and the three types of LEMs. Installation information for other configurations, such as a Genesis I System or a Genesis II System controlled by a GENII MPC is also provided as additional data.

• Instructions for REMs and RMIs are the same as for LEMs, except where otherwise noted.

Difference data, if required, is included in each section.

• Data Sheets in Appendix B of this manual contain information needed for installation of

miscellaneous ancillary units. Separate instructions for these units are not provided in the main part of the manual unless the data is not available on the Data Sheets.

• Basic electrical wiring information is provided in Section 3 and wiring instructions for

network systems is contained in Appendix A.

SECTION 2- MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

2-1. INTRODUCTION.

This section of the manual contains instructions and related data to facilitate the installation of components of the Genesis I or Genesis II System. Because of the physical similarities of the two systems, instructions contained in this section apply equally to the Genesis I and Genesis II Systems, except where otherwise noted.

It is recommended that the main units of the Genesis System, such as the Digital Controller, Mid Points Controller, Local Expansion Modules, and Remote Expansion Modules be mounted in steel cabinets to minimise the effects of electromagnetic interference (EMI). Network components, such as PCs, printers and modems, should be installed in accordance with standard computer installation practises.

Because of the designed-in flexibility of the Genesis Systems, they can be installed in a wide variety of configurations depending on the user’s preference. For this reason it is not possible to include all the various installation configurations in this manual. Instead, this manual provides examples of installations that are considered typical. Innotech recognises that the installation examples described in this manual may not be in total agreement with the user’s requirements. However, information in this document should be used as a guide for all installations, regardless of whether the specific circumstances match the examples given. In all cases, installation personnel should familiarise themselves with the information contained in this section.

NOTE

If required, additional installation recommendations can be provided

from Innotech Control Systems Australia upon request.

plastic base has eight mounting holes; each hole is 4mm in diameter. Not all of the eight holes are required for mounting, providing the unit is securely installed.

There are four slots in the bottom circuit board (motherboard) - two slots at each end. These slots facilitate the clamping of the plastic lid to the motherboard. To remove the plastic lid from the motherboard, press firmly inwards at each end of the plastic lid-piece to disengage the clip-in fitting and lift away simultaneously (see Figure 2-1). Installation of the plastic lid is similar to the removal procedure; insert the clip-in fitting at one end of the plastic lid into the slots provided on the motherboard. Then, clip the opposite end of the plastic lid into the slots at that end of the motherboard. Pressing the two ends of the plastic lid together can assist in the operation.

The Digital Controller’s outline dimensions are shown in Figure 2-2.

2-2.1.2. Genesis I Digital Controller. The Genesis I Digital Controller is used only

in Genesis I Systems. The main physical difference between the Genesis I and Genesis II controllers is that the Genesis I Digital Controller does not contain a display or operator’s keyboard as does the Genesis II controller. This means that, unlike the Genesis II Digital Controller, providing access to controls and indicators is not a consideration when installing the Genesis I Digital Controller. The Genesis I and Genesis II Digital Controllers are similar in all other respects, including dimensions.

2-2.1.3. Genesis II Mid Points Controller. The GENII MPC Mid Points

Controller module (Figure 2- 3) is a state-of-the-art processing system that performs the same controller functions as a digital controller. The GEN II MPC can be used in a Genesis II System as the main controller or as a supporting controller. It is designed for DIN Railmounting inside a control panel. The MPC does not have external controls or indicators.

Figure 2-3. Genesis II Mid Points Controller.

2-2.2. EXPANSION MODULES. Expansion modules increase the capability of a

controller by allowing more input and output devices to be connected to it. The following paragraphs describe two classes of expansion modules: Local Expansion Modules and Remote Expansion Modules.

2-2.2.1. Local Expansion Modules. The term: Local Expansion Module (LEM) is

the collective name applied to the following types of units used to configure the hardware to the customer’s requirements.

• Analogue Input Module (AIM)

• Digital Input Module (DIM)

• Digital Output Module (DOM)

Up to eight LEMs can be included in the system in any combination. They are designed for easy mounting on standard DIN Rails. A typical LEM is shown in Figure 2-4. The LEM shown in Figure 2-4 is a Digital Input Module; however the three types of LEM are similar in appearance and are identical in their dimensions.

There are restrictions on how far apart the LEMs can be from each other and from the controller; these requirements are explained in Paragraph 2-3.

2-2.2.2. Remote Expansion Modules. The term: Remote Expansion Module

(REM) is the collective nomenclature applied to the several types of units used to configure the hardware to the customer’s requirements. The REMs listed below are similar in appearance and of the same approximate dimensions as the LEMs and perform the same basic functions as the LEMs, but from a greater distance. However, REMs and LEMs cannot be used together with the same Digital Controller or GENII MPC.

• GENII AI REM Analogue Input Module

• GENII AO REM Analogue Output Module

• GENII DI REM Digital Input Module

• GENII OPTO DI REM Opto-Isolated Digital Input Module

• GENII DO REM Digital Output Module (Also called a Relay Output Module)

Figure 2-5 shows a typical REM; the example shown is GENII AI REM. REMs are DIN Rail-mounted.

In addition to the types of REMs listed above and represented by Figure 2-5, there are three additional types of REMs or REM-related modules described in the following paragraphs:

• GENII RMI Remote Module Interface

• GENII CS REM Control Station Module

• GENII MP REM Multipoint Module

2-2.2.2.3. Multipoint Module. The GENII MP REM Multipoint Module is a

DIN Rail-mounted device that provides input/output expansion capability for the associated Genesis II Digital Controller or GENII MPC. It is designed to be located at a remote location. The GENII MP REM is enclosed in a square case made of flameresistant Astrene M650 IR plastic. It is identical in appearance and dimensions to the GENII MPC (Figure 2-3).

NOTE

Unless otherwise noted, Installation Instructions are based on the

assumption that the system to be installed is a local Genesis II System

consisting of one Genesis II Digital Controller and three types of

LEMs. Installation Instructions for other types of hardware, such as:

Genesis I Digital Controllers, GENII MPCs, and REMs are contained

in Paragraph 2-4 - Difference Data.

2-3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.

A steel enclosure is recommended to contain the system with the aim of minimising EMI from surrounding equipment. To facilitate the number of cables entering and leaving the enclosure, the minimum dimensions of slotted cable ducts should be 45mm x 45mm with 65mm clearance from the cable ducts to the terminals of the units.

Where LEMs are used, every effort should be made to locate these units adjacent to the controller to minimise problems with connecting cables due to the critical lengths and segregation requirements.

The communications cable between the Digital Controller and the LEMs is an Innotechmanufactured item; part number GenII LEM Cable. The cable is made in 150mm segments; therefore, it is important that the LEMs are located as close as possible to the Digital Controller and placed side-by-side on the DIN rail.

Figure 2-8 shows an example of a typical Genesis System layout in an equipment enclosure.

2-3.2. INSTALLATION GUIDELINES. To ensure continued reliable operation of

the Genesis II System, the following installation guidelines should be observed:

• The Genesis II Digital Controller should be installed in a position that provides easy

access to the front panel and sufficient room for power, and input/output cabling. Also, the Digital Controller should be mounted such that the controls are in easy reach of the user.

• Install LEMs as close as possible to the Digital Controller and side-by-side on the DIN

rail. Refer to Paragraph 2-3 and Figure 2-8.

• Placement of the Genesis II Digital Controller should take into account the optimum

viewing angle of the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), which is approximately 45o vertically and 90o horizontally (see Figure 2-10).

• Do not mount any unit of the system near high voltage, high current cables or sources of

strong radio frequency emissions such as transmitter antenna cables.

• The ambient temperature of the Digital Controller and LEMs at the installation site should

not exceed the 0-40ºC temperature range. Ideally, the installation site should have a stable ambient temperature close to 20oC.

• Mount the units in an area with minimum vibration and minimum exposure to mechanical

damage.

2-4. DIFFERENCE DATA.

This paragraph contains difference data unique to installation of the Genesis I Digital Controller, the GENII MPC, Genesis II REMs and related devices. Installation Instructions provided in Paragraph 2-3 are applicable except where stated otherwise.

2-4.1. REM LIMITATIONS. The following limitations apply to the installation of

REMs:

• LEMs and REMs cannot be used with the same Digital Controller or GENII MPC.

• REMs can only be used with Genesis II Digital Controllers that have been upgraded to

Version 4.0 firmware.

NOTE

The Version 4.0 Configuration Software automatically configures the Digital Controller and produces a printout which lists the types and quantities of REMs that can be used with a given Digital Controller. The following information provides generalised REM type/quantity requirements that can be used for planning purposes.

• Only one GENII RMI Remote Module Interface can be used with a Genesis II Digital

Controller or GENII MPC. It must be installed adjacent to the digital controller/MPC

• Up to 15 REMs can be connected to a single GENII RMI. However, each REM has a

Resource Count that represents its requirements for controller resources. In no case can the Resource Count for a Digital Controller/GENII MPC exceed 36. Refer to Table 2-1 for a list of REM Resource Counts.

• The REMs must be installed within 500 metres of the RMI.

SECTION 3- ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

3-1. INTRODUCTION.

This section of the manual contains instructions and related data to facilitate the electrical installation of the Genesis I or Genesis II System. Because of the electrical similarities of the two systems, instructions contained in this section apply equally to the Genesis I and Genesis II Systems, except where otherwise noted.

Because of the designed-in flexibility of the Genesis System, it can be installed in a wide variety of configurations, depending on the user’s preference. For this reason it is not possible to include all the various installation configurations in this manual. Instead, this manual provides examples of installations that are considered typical. Innotech recognises that the installation examples described in this manual may not be in total agreement with the user’s requirements. However, information in this document should be used as a guide for all installations, regardless of whether the specific circumstances match the examples given. In all cases, installation personnel should familiarise themselves with the information contained in this section.

NOTE

If required, additional installation recommendations can be obtained from Innotech Control Systems Australia upon request.

This section of the technical manual contains the following specific information:

• Electrical Installation Practices of a general nature

• Wiring information for controllers (Genesis I and II Digital Controllers and Genesis II Mid

Points Controller)

• Wiring information for expansion modules (Local Expansion Modules and Remote

Expansion Modules)

3-2. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION PRACTICES.

This paragraph provides general information useable to qualified personnel installing the Genesis Systems. More detailed information for wiring of controllers and expansion modules is contained in subsequent paragraphs.

All wiring between the controller/expansion modules and system input/output devices, such as sensors, fans, compressors, must be in accordance with the instructions in the applicable instruction manual or data sheet.

ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE SYSTEM MUST BE TURNED OFF THROUGHOUT THE INSTALLATION PROCESS. DO NOT APPLY POWER TO ANY PART OF THE SYSTEM UNTIL READY FOR COMMISSIONING (SEE SECTION 4).

NOTE

If any data presented in this manual disagrees with information in the applicable instruction manual, information in the manufacturer’s instruction manual takes precedence. Customers are encouraged to contact Innotech Control Systems Australia for further information or clarification of information presented herein. Use the address or phone/fax number shown on the cover of this instruction manual.

Cabling plays an important role in the installation of the Genesis Systems. The following general cabling guidelines should be observed:

• In all cases, use electromagnetic-shielded cable for sensor wiring.

• When necessary to protect cabling from physical damage, both shielding and physical

protection may be provided by running the cable in a metal conduit. Alternatively, use steel wire armoured (SWA) cable, which also contains an electromagnetic shield.

• Avoid running cables in the vicinity of high voltage power cables or cables carrying switching

voltages/currents. This especially applies to sensor signal cables.

• Interconnecting cables must have multi-strand conductors with a cross-sectional area of 1mm

for each conductor.

• The earth cable to Genesis II enclosures must be 2.5mm

• For analogue inputs to the controller, a 16-conductor (0.5mm

) shielded cable is required.

Table 3-1 provides assistance in determining the cabling requirements for various installation configurations. It shows the dimensions, wire gauge designations and resistance values per unit length for common wire sizes. Use Table 3-1 to determine specific cabling requirements for your installation.

Installation Instructions for Innotech Genesis Systems

3-3.1.1. Power Input. The Genesis II Digital Controller power requirements are:

• 24Vac ±10%, 50/60Hz at 1.0A, or

• 24Vdc ±10%, at 0.75A (Factory Modification is Required)

For 24Vac supply voltages, a safety transformer with a nominal rating of 30VA must be used for the Digital Controller. The transformer must be in compliance with EN60742, designed for 100% duty and fused in compliance with local safety regulations. A single transformer may be used to supply voltage to more than one unit (such as a Digital Controller and associated expansion modules) providing the planned load is well within the transformer’s rating.

The transformer output terminal designated as AC Neutral must be solidly earthed to the enclosure’s main earth link.

Power input terminals are Terminals 1 and 2 and connected as follows:

Terminal AC Supply DC Supply

1 24Vac +24Vdc 2 0Vac

(Neutral)

Note: Resistance between Terminal 2 and earth must be 3 Ohms, or less

-24Vdc

3-3.1.2. Digital Inputs. The Genesis II Digital Controller’s eight digital input

channels (Terminals 3–18) provide the capability of directly interfacing to digital input signal sources such as pushbutton switches and relay contacts. Because each digital input channel is isolated, the power source for the signal must be external to the controller. This signal source can be AC or DC. If the source is AC, it can be provided by the auxiliary transformer. Signal power requirements are:

• 24Vac ± 15%, or

• 24Vdc ± 15% (Factory Modification Required)

There are two terminals associated with each digital input channel. If an external DC signal source is used, the odd-numbered (left) terminal must be wired as positive and the evennumbered (right) terminal as negative.

Refer to Table 3-2 for digital input terminal number assignments. Signal names assigned to the terminals are DI1+/− through DI8+/−. DI stands for Digital Input, the numeral represents the channel number and the + or − indicates the signal polarity when using a DC signal power source.

3-3.1.3. Digital Outputs. Each of the Genesis II Digital Controller’s eight digital

output channels (Terminals 41–64) consists of a single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) relay. Three terminals assigned to each channel represent the associated relay’s Normally Open (NO), Common (C) and Normally Closed (NC) contacts.

Digital output relay contacts are rated at 240Vac, 2A. Good practice is to use pilot relays for the actual switching functions, particularly when it applies to inductive loads such as coils, solenoids and motors. This protects the relays of the digital output channel and has the advantage of allowing the pilot relays to be installed adjacent to the controlling switchgear.

Refer to Table 3-3 for digital output terminal number assignments.

3-3.1.4. Analogue Inputs. The Genesis II Digital Controller’s eight analogue input

channels (Terminals 21-36) allow the direct interface of various analogue inputs, such as Thermistor, 0-10Vdc, 0-5Vdc and 4-20mA signals. Each analogue input channel is configured to the type of input by the use of Analogue Input Signal Conditioners (AISCs). These are small plug inserts installed during system commissioning (Section 4).

CAUTION

SPECIAL CONSIDERATION MUST BE MADE WHEN USING LOOP-POWERED 4-20MA INPUTS. BECAUSE THIS TYPE OF INPUT DRAWS 20MA FROM THE DIGITAL CONTROLLER, A MAXIMUM OF TWO INPUTS OF THIS TYPE MAY BE USED. THIS TYPE OF INPUT MUST NOT BE USED ON LOCAL OR REMOTE EXPANSION MODULES.

NOTE

Terminals 19 and 20 (Figure 3-2) are provided for terminating analogue cable screens.

There are two terminals associated with each of the eight analogue input channels. Normally, the odd-numbered (positive) terminal is used for the active analogue input signal from the sensor. The even-numbered (negative) terminal is used to provide the stimulation for the sensor or a voltage reference (such as 0 Volts) for an active transducer.

Due to the sensitivity of the analogue input signals, screened cable must be used. The screens should be terminated at Terminals 19 or 20.

Refer to Table 3-4 for analogue input terminal number assignments. Signal names assigned to the terminals are AI1+/− through AI8+/−. AI stands for Analogue Input; the numeral represents the channel number. The + indicates the active signal and the − indicates the signal reference/return.

3-3.1.5. Analogue Outputs. Sixteen analogue output channels are provided. Each

channel can be configured, through the Genesis II Configuration Software, to operate in either the Variable Mode or the Heat Valve Mode.

In the Variable Mode, the output is a voltage-analogue signal varying from 0 to +10 Volts with a maximum current rating of 5mA. In the Heat Valve Mode, the output signal consists of Pulse-Width Modulated (PWM), 0-10V, high-speed pulses at 5mA. For a description of PWM as it applies to Heat Valve Operation, refer to the Innotech Genesis II Direct Digital Controller User Manual.

When using PWM outputs, up to three solid state relays, connected in series, may be used on each Heat Valve-configured analogue output channel. See Figure 3-3. A maximum of eight analogue output channels can be applied to Heat Valve operation. For more than eight Heat Valve outputs, it is recommended that Models IHV4002 or IHV4004 Heat Valves for Solid State Relays be used. These heat valves are driven by the Digital Controller’s analogue output channel in the Variable Mode. For more information on these devices, refer to Data Sheet DS3.31 for Type IHV Heat Valves.

Refer to Table 3-5 for analogue output terminal numbers. There are 16 analogue active signal terminals (AO1 through AO16), one for each channel and eight return (Common) terminals. The fewer number of Common terminals is intended to reduce the overall number of terminals.

Cable screening may be terminated into the Screens Terminals (19 and 20), space permitting. Alternatively, all cable screens can be combined by soldering within the slotted cable-routing ducts with a common 1mm2-earth lead connected to Terminals 19 or 20.

3-3.1.7. LEM/REM Connector. The LEM/REM connector is a 10-pin ribbon cable

connector that provides access between the Digital Controller and the expansion modules.

NOTE

When expansion modules are used with a Digital Controller, LEMs and REMs must not be mixed. Modules used may be either LEMs or REMs, but not both.

Connectors along the cable are spaced at 150mm intervals; therefore it is critical that the LEMs are located as close as possible to the Digital Controller and to each other.

REMs access to the Digital Controller is through a GENII RMI Remote Module Interface Unit. The RMI is installed close to the Digital Controller and connects to it by a short

NOTE

Because much of the MPC’s input/output connection information is similar to that of the Genesis II Digital Controller, the following paragraphs make frequent reference to related paragraphs in the Genesis II Digital Controller section. Therefore, readers should familiarise themselves with the types of data contained in Paragraph 3-3.1 and its subparagraphs before reading further.

3-3.2.1. Power Input. The Genesis II MPC power requirements are the same as for

the Genesis II Digital Controller, except that the MPC contains a third power terminal (Terminal 3) which is an earth connection point. This is an independent earth connection point and is in addition to the earthed AC Neutral at Terminal 2. Refer to Paragraph 3-

3.1.1.

3-3.2.2. Digital Inputs. The Genesis II MPC’s digital input channel wiring

information is similar to that of the Genesis II Digital Controller, except that the MPC has four digital input channels. Refer to Paragraph 3-3.1.2.

The MPC’s digital input terminals are not assigned terminal numbers; however each terminal is clearly labelled as to its polarity and signal name. Signal names assigned to the terminals are DI1+/− through DI4+/−.

3-3.2.3. Digital Outputs. The Genesis II MPC’s digital output wiring information is

similar to that of the Genesis II Digital Controller (refer to Paragraph 3-3.1.3), with the following exceptions:

• The NC output relay contacts are not used. Only the C and NO contacts of the eight

digital output relays are represented at the output terminals.

• Terminal numbers are not assigned, however terminals are clearly labeled as to signal

name: DO1(NO)/(C) through DO8(NO)/(C).

3-3.2.4. Analogue Inputs. The Genesis II MPC’s analogue input channel wiring

information is similar to that of the Genesis II Digital Controller, except that the MPC has four analogue input channels. Refer to Paragraph 3-3.1.4.

The MPC’s analogue input terminals are not assigned terminal numbers; however, each terminal is clearly labelled as to its polarity and signal name. Signal names assigned to the terminals are AI1+/− through AI4+/−.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATION MUST BE MADE WHEN USING LOOP-POWERED 4-20MA INPUTS. BECAUSE THIS TYPE OF INPUT DRAWS 20MA FROM THE MPC, A MAXIMUM OF TWO INPUTS OF THIS TYPE MAY BE USED. THIS TYPE OF INPUT MUST NOT BE USED ON LOCAL OR REMOTE EXPANSION MODULES.

3-4. WIRING OF EXPANSION MODULES.

The following paragraphs provide wiring information for local expansion module and remote expansion modules. LEMs and REMs can be used with Genesis I Digital Controllers, Genesis II Digital Controllers or Genesis II MPCs. Controllers used with REMs must have Version 4 Firmware installed to support the REM. In no case may LEMs and REMs be used with the same controller

3-4.1. LOCAL EXPANSION MODULES. Genesis I and II Systems use three types

of LEMs:

• GENII AIM Analogue Input Module

• GENII DIM Digital Input Module

• GENII DOM Digital Output Module.

3-14

Edition 011100

Installation Instructions for Innotech Genesis Systems

Each type of LEM provides four additional signal channels for the controller. The Genesis II Digital Controller can use up to eight LEMs, in any combination, thus achieving 32 extra signal channels.

There are critical requirements for the physical placement of the LEMs; refer to Section 2. When installing the LEM cable between the controller and the LEMs, observe the following precautions:

• The LEM cable should be run external of cable ducts.

• A maximum of 300mm of LEM cable is allowed between LEMs. The overall cable

length must not exceed 1.5 metres.

• Ensure the LEM cable plug is inserted into the keyed sockets on the controller and LEMs

in the correct orientation.

3-4.1.1. AIM Analogue Input Modules. Each AIM (Figure 3-6) occupies one of

the controller’s analogue input channels; however, each AIM has five analogue input channels, thus providing the controller with an overall increase of four channels per AIM.

The AIM does not require power terminals since operating power is supplied from the controller by way of the LEM cable.

The AIM requires an AISC for each input channel to determine the signal type for each input. An AISC (Part Number GENII AIM AISC) at the AIM’s input to the controller is also required. AISCs are not provided with the AIM and must be ordered separately. The computer-generated materials list shows the number of AISCs, of each type required for the controller and the AIM. The computer-generated wiring diagram shows the locations of the AISCs. Installation of the AISCs is part of the commissioning process and instructions are provided in Section 4.

Particular care must be exercised in protecting the analogue signals from electromagnetic interference of all types and in ensuring the proper termination of analogue cable screens. Screens of input and output analogue signal cables and the analogue signal return lead to the controller should be tied together at Terminal 2. Screening integrity must be maintained at the input terminals of the module and not at entry points to the enclosure or at universal terminal strips.

3-4.2. REMOTE EXPANSION MODULES. The following paragraphs contain

wiring information for the following types of REMs used in the Genesis II System:

• GENII RMI Remote Module Interface

• GENII AI REM Analogue Input Module

• GENII AO REM Analogue Output Module

• GENII DI REM Opto Isolated Digital Input Module

• GENII DI REM Dry Contact Digital Input Module

• GENII DO REM Relay Output Module

• GENII CS REM Control Station Module

• GENII MZS REM Multi Zone Station Module

• GENII MP REM Multipoint Module.

The RMI functions as a bridge between the controller and the other REMs. Communication between the controller and the RMI is by way of a ribbon cable connected to the controller’s LEM/REM Connector. Communication between the RMI and the other REMs is by way of a standard RS485 Comms cable network.

The method for connecting the modules to electrical power and to the RS485 Comms cable system is similar for most of the different types of modules, except where otherwise noted. The following two paragraphs provide detailed instructions for connecting electrical power and the RS485 system, respectively.

3-4.2.1. REM Power Connections. Electrical power requirements and connections

for all remote expansion modules, except the RMI and MP REMs, are the same. Power requirements and connection information for the RMI and MP REMs are explained in Paragraphs 3-4.2.3 and 3-4.2.11 respectively. Information in this paragraph is for all other REMs.

Power requirements are 24Vac, ±10% at 50/60Hz. Refer to the appropriate paragraph below for the physical location of the power connection block within each type of REM. At the power connection block, the 24Vac power terminals are:

• Terminal 1 = 24Vac Supply

• Terminal 2 = 0Vac Supply

• Terminal 3 = Earth

Terminal 3 is for the protection of the RS485 Comms circuitry and must be connected to a good, electrically bonded earth. This may be the earth bus bar of the switchboard or the point that connects the chassis of the equipment the module is located in. This connection is independent of and in addition to the earthed AC Neutral at Terminal 2.

3-4.2.2. RS485 Comms Connections. The RS485 Comms link between the RMI

and the other LEMs is designed to allow reliable communications over long distances in electrically adverse signal conditions.

The following guidelines, which are common to the RMI and all REMs, should be followed when installing the RS485 Comms network:

• Cables used for RS485 Comms must be shielded, single twisted pair, 120 Ohms

characteristic impedance with 36 to 45 picoFarads per metre capacitance between conductors.

• The RS485 Comms cable must be organised as a bus topology. See Paragraph A-4.1 in

Appendix A for a description of bus topology. To connect a module to the RS485 cable, the cable is cut at the point the module is to be connected. Then, the two new cable ends are wired into the module. The two shields are then terminated at terminals marked SHLD1 and SHLD2 respectively. “Stub” connections are not allowed in the bus topology configuration.

• The cable run between the RMI and any other REM must not exceed 500 metres in

length.

On most units, the RS485 Comms connection block contains four terminals. The exception is the MP module, which has three terminals and is explained in Paragraph 3-4.2.11. The four terminals on the standard RS485 connection block are:

• S1 = Screen of Cable Number 1

• ++ = Positive Comms Line

• −− = Negative Comms Line

• S2 = Screen of Cable Number 2

The four-terminal arrangement accommodates the use of one or two RS485 Comms cables. A single cable connection is used when the module is located at the end of the network and two cable connections are used when the RMI is connected to a point in the cable network other than the end.

An End of Cable Jumper plug near the RS485 connection block provides the proper termination impedance for the Comms line. If only single RS485 Comms cable is connected to the module, the End of Cable Jumper must be installed. If two cables are fitted, the End of Cable Jumper must be removed.

CAUTION

3-20

THE RS485 COMMS SYSTEM WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY IF THE CONNECTION POLARITIES ARE NOT CORRECT. ENSURE CORRECT POLARITY OF THE CONNECTIONS THROUGHOUT THE LENGTH OF THE COMMS CABLE.

Figure 3-10 shows how to connect a two-cable Comms network to a module. If the module has only one RS485 Comms cable connected to it, the cable screen must be connected to S1. If two Comms cables are fitted, the screen of the second cable must be connected to the S2 terminal. Screens must not be connected to each other.

3-4.2.3. RMI Remote Module Interface. The RMI (Figure 3-11) provides an

interface between the controller and the other REMs. It is connected to the controller by way of the LEM/REM Connector and uses an RS485 link to communicate with the REMs. The RMI is designed to be located within 100mm of the controller. A controller can have only one RMI connected to it.

The RMI does not have a power connection block because the module receives 5Vdc operating power from the controller through the LEM Cable.

The 10-pin ribbon cable plug for connecting the RMI to the controller is at the upper left side of the module.

The four-terminal connector block at the lower left corner of the module is the RS485 Comms cable connection block. The End of Cable Jumper is to the right of the RS485 connection block.

Terminal 3 in the lower right corner of the RMI is an earth connection point that provides protection for the Comms cable and screens on the RMI. Connect the electrical earth cable between Terminal 3 and a solid earth. This may be the earth bus bar of the switchboard cabinet or the cable that earths the frame of the equipment the RMI is installed in. Only one of the RMI’s two earth terminals need be used; the two terminals are connected to each other.

applied voltage is of the proper level and, in the case of DC power inputs, of the correct polarity. Table 4-1 shows the input voltage specifications for the various types of units. Most units operate on 24Vac 24Vdc similar, except that: for 24Vac units, AC Neutral must be at earth potential and connected to Terminal 2. For 24Vdc units, Terminal 1 must be positive and Terminal 2 negative.

Two units: the GENII RPTR Repeater Module and the GENII MP REM Multipoint Module use 240Vac input power. Since these units are powered directly from standard power points, it is not necessary to check their power inputs unless a fault in the power mains is suspected. Suspected power mains problems should be referred to a qualified electrician.

Some Local Expansion Modules and Remote Expansion Modules receive their operating power from the associated controller through the LEM/RMI ribbon cable (See Table 4-1). It is not necessary to check voltage for these units. However, the LEM/RMI Cable should be inspected to ensure it is undamaged and the connectors are firmly seated.

DIGITAL OUTPUTS ARE CONTROLLED BY RELAYS WITHIN THE ASSOCIATED GENESIS UNIT. THESE RELAYS ARE CONNECTED TO EXTERNAL CIRCUITS THAT CAN CONTAIN UP TO 240Vac. PROCEDURES IN THIS MANUAL REQUIRE CHECKING THESE CIRCUITS WITH POWER APPLIED. TO AVOID DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY BY ELECTRICAL SHOCK, USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN WORKING WITH ENERGISED CIRCUITS AND FOLLOW PRECAUTIONS IN THIS MANUAL.

interfaced through relays, each having single-pole changeover contacts. The Genesis II Digital Controllers and the Digital Output Module (DOM) LEMs are

provided with both Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) contacts in each digital output channel. The following units contain only NO digital output contacts:

Relay contacts in all units with digital outputs are rated at 240Vac, 2A. For this reason, the presence of lethal voltages at the relay contacts should be anticipated. Even though good wiring practice is to use lower voltage pilot relays when controlling higher voltage equipment, this practice can not be guaranteed and it is possible that the relay contacts will carry dangerous voltages. For this reason, it is important that only a qualified electrician, familiar with safety practices, check the digital output wiring.

Before checking the digital output circuits, it is important to ensure that there are no short circuits in the external wiring which could cause the contact current to exceed 2A. Current in excess of 2A through the relay contacts will result in permanent damage to the unit.

Checking Digital Output Wiring. Digital outputs of the various units are

Following is a general description of the process for safely checking digital output circuits. Specific procedures for checking the wiring are provided toward the end of this paragraph (see Figure 4-4).

With power applied to the digital output circuits, but not to the Genesis unit, the output circuits are checked for operation. Devices connected between the NC and C terminals should be operating and devices connected to the NO and C terminals should be deenergised. If the operational status cannot be determined by observation (indicator lamp on/off, fan running/not running, etc.) a voltmeter is placed across the device to determine whether or not it is energised.

following Genesis units should be checked as part of the commissioning process:

Checking analogue input wiring requires special consideration due to the wide variety of analogue input devices that may be used in the system. Some input devices function as signal voltage sources; some devices function in the loop current mode and others provide resistive inputs to the Genesis unit. For this reason there is no single procedure that can be used on all analogue inputs.

Procedures presented in this manual are based on identifying the type of Analogue Input Signal Conditioner (AISC) assigned to each analogue input channel. Since each analogue input device requires a specific AISC type to match the signal to the Genesis unit, the type of AISC assigned to an analogue input channel indicates the type of input signal and the range. The various types of AISCs are listed in Table 4-3 along with the type of analogue signal and the range. Reference to the paragraph containing the instructions for checking the input wiring is also provided in Table 4-3. For example, an analogue input channel that has Model TH2 AISC assigned receives its input from a thermistor device; the input circuit is checked by measuring its resistance, which should be between 0 and 2k . Procedures for checking the resistance are contained in Paragraph 4-1.2.4.3.

Checking Analogue Input Wiring. The analogue input wiring for the

The type of AISC for each analogue input channel is determined when the system configuration is established by the Genesis Configuration Software prior to delivery. The configuration software automatically generates a Materials List and a Wiring Diagram, which are delivered with the system. The Materials List shows the number of AISCs by type but does not show which analogue input channels they are assigned to. The Wiring Diagram (Figure 4-5) identifies the AISC type for each analogue input channel.

When an Analogue Input Module LEM is used, the output of the LEM is connected to one of the controller’s analogue input channels. Because the cable between the LEM and the controller is very short, this connection is checked by visual inspection. When checking the analogue connection between the AIM LEM and a controller, ensure the cable is wired in accordance with Section 3 and is free of potential physical damage. Ensure, also, that the cable is routed outside of the cable ducts.

ALTHOUGH 500 OHMS IS SUITABLE IN MOST CASES, SOME APPLICATIONS MAY REQUIRE A HIGHER VALUE OF RESISTANCE TO AVOID DAMAGE TO CIRCUITS. ALWAYS ENSURE THAT A SUITABLE RESISTOR IS USED.

Analogue inputs associated with the I05, I20, TD1 and TD2 AISCs are checked by measuring voltage across a resistance connected in series with the current source. A 500-Ohm resistance is normally suitable for this procedure. The matrix below lists the expected voltages to be measured across a 500-Ohm resistance for the various values of input current. For other resistor values use Ohm’s Law (E=IR) to determine the voltage.

Inputs associated with the P20 AISC are 4 – 20mA loop-powered inputs. These inputs CANNOT be conveniently checked in the same manner as the other current inputs without applying power to the Genesis unit before it is safe to do so. Loop powered input wiring is checked by using a voltmeter to ascertain that there is no stray voltage present at the input terminals. The input wiring is then visually inspected for proper connection.

Ensure the operating power to the unit is off.

Turn on the excitation and operating power for the digital inputs, digital outputs and, as applicable, the analogue inputs. The reason for this step is to detect the presence of voltages at the analogue output terminals that may be caused by “sneak” circuits or wiring errors.

At the analogue output terminal, disconnect the active signal wire for the first analogue output.

Connect a digital voltmeter between the disconnected signal wire and the common terminal.

The voltmeter should indicate Zero Volts. Set the voltmeter range as low as possible to ensure there is no voltage present.

Set the voltmeter to the Ohms range. The Ohmmeter should indicate a minimum resistance of 2,000 or 5,000 Ohms (See Note below). A reading of Infinity Ohms indicates an open circuit condition that should be corrected.

The Innotech configuration software program was prepared for your Genesis System at the factory before delivery of the system. The software contains all the data for internally configuring the controller(s) to perform the specific functions for which it was intended. Until the controller is configured, it can not accept input signals or produce outputs.

To configure the controller(s), a Windows-based PC and the applicable version of the Innotech Gen2Config program are required. A software disk is provided with the Genesis hardware at delivery. The disk contains a program called Gen2Works, which is a collection of several Innotech programs, including Gen2Config. The other software programs supplied in Gen2Works are for the purpose of enhancing operation and de-bugging of the system. But it is the Gen2Config software that is required for commissioning the system.

Paragraph 4-1.6.1 contains instructions for loading the Gen2Works software into your PC and Paragraph 4-1.6.2 explains how to configure the controller using the Gen2Config program.

LOAD SOFTWARE AND CONFIGURE THE CONTROLLER(S).

NOTE

The instructions in the next two paragraphs are generalised procedures based on the assumption the operator is familiar with operation of a PC in a Windows environment.

NOTE

Loading the Gen2Works software requires entry of an Activation Key. The Activation Key is a password provided by Innotech to permit access to the Gen2Works software. If an Activation Key has not been provided, contact Innotech Control Systems at the address/phone numbers shown on the cover of this manual. Note that the Activation Key is only effective for one session. If Setup is to be run at a later date, a new Activation Key is required.

software to perform a thorough checkout of the system. The basic approach to performing these tests is to use the software to apply simulated inputs to the controller and to check the effect on the output circuits. The following paragraphs describe the Gen2Mon software and the checks to be performed as part of initial tests.

INITIAL TESTS. Initial tests of the system involve the use of the Gen2Mon

Gen2Mon monitoring and debugging utility software. This software allows the operator to trace the flow of control and to view the various values within a configuration residing in a controller.

With Gen2Mon, each controller can be monitored one at a time in real time. Therefore, what appears on the screen is what is actually happening inside the controller. Gen2Mon must have a constant connection to the controller to be able to operate. This connection is either through a controller network or through the RS232 serial port.

Gen2Mon Software. Initial tests of the system are simplified by use of the

program at this point.

The Gen2Mon allows the operator to monitor any output value from any block in the configuration. Also, Gen2Mon has a Simulation Mode that allows the operator to control the values of any, or all, of the controller’s input blocks. In this manner, the action of a

flexibility, the various configurations can be vastly different from each other. For this reason, it is not practical to provide detailed procedural instructions for performing initial tests that apply to all configurations. However, this paragraph describes the general methodology for performing the initial tests.

Initial tests using the Gen2Mon Software are divided into three separate phases; these tests should be performed on each controller in turn:

Performing Initial Tests. Because of the Genesis System’s designed-in

In the first phase of testing, power is removed from all output circuits and the Gen2Mon software is used to monitor the states and input/output values of the various configuration blocks using variable input stimuli. This phase serves two purposes: It checks the configuration of the controller and it helps to familiarise the operator with the operation of the system.

In the second phase of testing, the controller’s primary output circuits, such as motor controllers and relay circuits are energised but the output machinery (fans, pumps, compressors, etc.) are de-energised. In this phase, the controller inputs are stimulated just enough to cause the output circuits to operate or change state. This phase checks the operation of the output control circuits without operating the plant machinery

In the third phase, the primary output control circuits as well as the plant machinery are energised. In this phase the controller inputs are carefully stimulated just enough to briefly test the operation of the plant machinery. This phase should involve the minimum of controller input stimulation required to operate the machinery.

APPENDIX A- NETWORK INSTALLATION

A-1. OVERVIEW.

The Innotech Genesis group of products uses serial communications (Comms) via standard RS485 physical networks to communicate data between themselves and to PCs connected to the network. The layout of the cables and the methods of connecting them are set out in this section.

A-2. GENESIS I AND GENESIS II PRODUCTS.

The Genesis I and Genesis II products that can be connected to the serial Comms are:

• Genesis I Digital Controller

• Genesis II Digital Controller

• GENII MPI Modem and Printer Interface

• GENII RPTR Repeater Module,

• GENII CONVERTER RS232 to RS485 Isolated Converter

• GENII 485I Isolated RS485 Comms

• GENII POLY SWITCH RS485 Protection Plug.

• GENII RMI Remote Module Interface

• Genesis II Mid Points Controller (MPC)

• All Genesis II Remote Expansion Modules (REMs)

The Genesis I Digital Controller, Genesis II Digital Controller, GENII MPI and GENII RPTR have two serial networks: Net Comms and Global Points.

A-2.1. NET COMMS. Net Comms provides a means to configure or monitor Digital

Controllers from a PC at a speed of 9600 baud. A local PC can be connected to the Net Comms via an MPI or via an RS232 to RS485 converter. A PC with a modem at a remote location can access this network through the telephone system via a modem connected to an MPI on the Net Comms.

Caution must be exercised if a PC and an MPI or more than one PC is directly connected to the Net Comms. Only one of these can be active at a time or there will be a conflict between them causing the data to be corrupted.

Local access to an individual Digital Controller can be made via its RS232 DB9 connector. The Digital Controller is disconnected from the RS485 Net Comms when this connection is activated. The PC cannot access the Net Comms via this RS232 connection.

A-2.2. GLOBAL POINTS. The Global Points network provides a means for control

data to be shared among the Digital Controllers and a GENII MPI at a data speed of 4800 baud. There is no facility to connect a PC to the Global Points network through a Digital Controller or GENII MPI. If it is necessary to monitor the Global Points traffic, a GENII CONVERTER can be used to connect to the Global Points Comms cable and use the Genesis Global Points Monitor software to view the data.

Installation Instructions for Innotech Genesis Systems

A-2.3. GENII RS485I ISOLATED RS485 COMMS. The GENII RS485I Isolated

RS485 Comms Card is an optional daughter board that can be plugged onto the bottom board of a Genesis II Digital Controller to isolate the Digital Controller from the RS485 communications cable.

A-3. GENESIS I AND GENESIS II CABLE SPECIFICATIONS.

The cable should be designated as suitable for use in RS485 serial communications. It is recommended that the cable to be used for Net Comms and Global Points with the Genesis I and Genesis II controllers be a dual twisted pair cable with each pair preferably having their own shielding. A single shielded twisted pair cable can be used if only the Net Comms or the Global Points are connected. If the Comms cable is to be run in contact with power cabling, the voltage rating of the sheathing must comply with the ratings for a power cable. The cable characteristics as specified by the manufacturer should be as follows:

• Shielded, dual-twisted-pair (Two shielded, single-twisted-pair cables can be used if

necessary)

• 7 x 0.2mm

conductors

• 120 Ohms characteristic impedance

• Sheath thickness 0 to 3mm.

• 36 to 42 picoFarads per metre capacitance between conductors

• 65 to 76 picoFarads per metre capacitance between one conductor and all other conductors

and shield

• Sheathing to meet the necessary voltage rating, if required.

A-4. INSTALLATIONS.

It is not possible to cover all the situations that may be encountered in the wide range of installations found in the field. The following examples are provided as a guide to assist in deciding the best method of connection and layout and to illustrate the differences between the Genesis I and Genesis II products.

Some situations require additional care to avoid hazardous situations. These may be covered by legislation or regulations such as those set by Telecommunications Authorities, Electrical Wiring Rules and Local Authorities. Much of the Genesis product line is designed to comply with the extra low voltage standards and, therefore, any wiring connected to these products should also comply with these standards if the product compliance is to be maintained.

Communication links between equipment supplied from different electrical switchboards should be electrically isolated from one another. The voltages at the earth connections at the switchboards will usually have a small difference under normal conditions but, if a fault occurs on equipment connected to one switchboard, the voltage difference can increase dangerously. If a non-isolated communications link is used, this voltage difference can cause a large current to flow through the communications cable and the integrated circuits (ICs) connected to it. An isolated connection will block the current, but it would have to withstand the full supply voltage for up to several seconds.

The Genesis I Digital Controller cannot be isolated from the RS485 communications cable. This places some restrictions on its application. If isolation is required, it must be provided by a GENII RPTR Repeater Module.

A-4.1. GENESIS II COMMS WIRING TOPOLOGY. Bus topology is produced

by connecting from one device to the next and then on to the next (Figure A-1). A simple means to identify if bus topology is used is to check that:

• There are TWO end connections, and

• Any joining is made between TWO cable ends only.

Three or more cable ends at a joint indicates it is Star topology. The total continuous length of cable in one section is 1000 metres maximum. In the Star Topology, note that a joint in each of the diagrams has three or more cable ends joined together. In the ring topology, note that there are no end connections.

Note that the four devices and Port 1 of the Repeater Module are connected in bus topology. Port 2 of the Repeater Module and the added device form a separate network linked by the electronics within the Repeater Module.

Always maintain bus topology on the network when adding another module to the network.

The networks are linked by the electronics in the Repeater Modules. The GENII MPI Modem and Printer Interface does not need to be an isolated version but it should be noted that the Comms cable connecting Ports 2 of the Repeater Module will be earthed through the MPI via the PC and the printer. The correct port of the Repeater Modules must be used to maintain the integrity of isolation between sections.

A-4.2. GENESIS COMMS WIRING CONSIDERATIONS. The maximum

number of nodes or devices that can be connected on one section of Comms cable is 32. This limit is set by the characteristics of the RS485 ICs.

The maximum length of Comms cable is 1000 metres. This is determined by the characteristics of the RS485 ICs and by the characteristics of the cable. In practice, the maximum length of cable is determined by the quality of the signals. The signal will be degraded by using cable which does not meet the RS485 cable specification and by installing the cable in locations where it is subject to interference from other cables and equipment. In severe cases, it may not be possible to have 32 nodes on one section of cable.

A node is any Genesis product with an RS485 connection. These devices are listed in Paragraph A-2.

To increase the total number of nodes on a system, a GENII RPTR Repeater Module must be used (Figure A-5). The two ports on a Repeater Module reside on different sections of the system and each section can have up to the maximum of 32 nodes. With one repeater, a total of 62 nodes can be connected on the system. A repeater can be connected at any point on the network providing bus topology is maintained.

Figure A-5. Network Nodes Considerations.

A-4.2.1. Genesis Comms Wiring Connections. Figure A-6 illustrates the

arrangements for connecting the data conductors and screen for the Comms cable to Genesis products.

It is most important that the two conductors of a twisted pair be correctly identified. Take extra care with cable that has two twisted pairs with only an overall screen. If a conductor from one twisted pair is “paired” with a conductor from the other twisted pair, the two data streams will interfere with each other. This may cause complete failure of the RS485 communications.

on the printed circuit board permanently links the following points:

• Terminal 2 (the Zero Volts of the AC supply)

• Terminals 19 and 20 (the connections for the screens of the analogue inputs)

• Terminal 91 (the connection for the screen of the Comms cable)

• The shell and Pin 5 of the DB9 connector for RS232.

If the screen of the Comms cable is connected into Terminal 91, the screen will be earthed via the earth connection on Terminal 2. To isolate the screen at a Genesis I Digital Controller, the screen must not be connected to Terminal 91. To maintain the continuity of the screen, it has to be joined externally from the Genesis I Digital Controller. Refer to Figure A-7.

Terminal 91 (the connection for the screen of the Comms cable) is not permanently connected to Common of the Digital Controller. It can be linked to Common by two shunts as shown in Figure A-8. These shunts are located on the bottom printed circuit board under the edge of the top board. On Genesis II Digital Controllers, the screen(s) of the Comms cable(s) can always be connected or joined in Terminal 91 because it can be isolated from the Common of the Digital Controller by removing the two shunts. To check that the screens are isolated, only the two outer shunts on each side should be fitted. The alternative terminal layout can be found on older versions of the printed circuit board. The terminal numbering is the same.

Protection Plug board can only be used on Genesis II Digital Controllers. The POLY SWITCH board does not provide fully isolated data lines. It isolates the screen of the Comms cables from the Common on the Digital Controller.

The POLY SWITCH board provides a level of protection against some types of overvoltage. It protects the RS485 ICs if 24Vac is applied to the Comms Terminals 89 to 93. To fit a POLY SWITCH board (See Figure A-9):

a. Ensure that the power to all the connections to the Digital Controller is turned off. b. Remove all shunts from the dual 14-way pin strip on the bottom printed circuit board. c. Turn the POLY SWITCH Board so that all the components and the socket are facing

to the bottom printed circuit board. d. Fit the POLY SWITCH Board onto the 14-way pin strip, making sure that the pin

strip and the socket are properly aligned. e. Do not remove the two shunt links from the other pin strips on the bottom printed

circuit board.

NOTE

The screen links are open on a POLY SWITCH board.

A-4.2.6. GENII RPTR Repeater Module. The Repeater Module (Figure A-11)

can be used with both the Genesis I and Genesis II Digital Controllers. The repeater’s function is to rebuild each data byte before re-transmitting it.

There are two earth connections on the Repeater Module. The e lectrical earth must be connected at the E Terminal as it provides a creepage barrier for the mains voltage connection at the L and N Terminals. The earth (E) associated with the 240Vac supply also earths the data rebuilding circuitry, which is connected with Port 1. Port 1 should always be connected to the local devices (the devices that share the same supply and electrical earth). The other EARTH is for the over-voltage-limiting device connected to Port 2. This device limits the Port 1 screen voltage above earth to 36 Volts.

WARNING

IF THE EARTH TERMINAL IS NOT CONNECTED TO THE ELECTRICAL EARTH, THE CABLE CONNECTED T O PORT 2 CAN REACH DANGEROUSLY HIGH VOLTAGES.

Port 2 should be connected to the remote devices - the devices supplied from a different switchboard.

If the Comms cable connection to Port 1 is an end connection and the Repeater Module is not the earth point for the screen, the screen of the Comms cable must not be connected to the terminal. If the Comms cable is looped through Port 1 and the repeater is not the earth point for the screen, the screens of the two Comms cables will have to be joined but not connected into the terminal.

Because Port 2 is isolated, the screen(s) of the Comms cable(s) can always be joined in the terminal.

A-4.2.7. GENII MPI Modem and Printer Interface. The GENII MPI Modem

and Printer Interface can be used with both the Genesis I and Genesis II Digital Controllers. The MPI is supplied with a double insulated plug pack, which isolates the MPI power supply from the electrical earth. But, when a printer or PC is connected to the MPI, it will be connected to the electrical earth via the printer and/or PC cables. See Figure A-12

The Comms is connected to the MPI via the RJ11 socket on the rear of the MPI. The top portion of Figure A-12 shows the socket connections and the cable as supplied. The standard order for conductor colours is shown, but they may change and, therefore, should always be checked before connecting.

To isolate the screen of the Comms cabling from electrical earth at a non-isolated MPI, do not connect the two GND conductors of the flat MPI cable to the screen(s) of the Comms cables at the wall connection. This is not an isolated connection for the data conductors.

To provide isolation for the data conductors, an MPI fitted with RS485 isolation ICs must be used. The two GND conductors should be connected to the screen(s) of the Comms cable when an isolated MPI is used. Connecting the screen(s) of the Comms cable(s) completes the internal over-voltage protection on the MPI data connections.

supplied and earthed from two different switchboards, a hazardous situation can be created. One earth connection is at the local switchboard and the second earth connection is by way of the screen of the Comms cable (Figure A-15). In the event of a fault, there could be full supply voltage difference between the two earth connections. This can destroy the RS485 ICs and anyone touching the screen can receive a severe electric shock. The RS485 ICs in the three Digital Controllers in Control Panel No.2 will be damaged if the voltage difference exceeds the ratings of the ICs.

Figure A-16 shows a wiring arrangement that is slightly better. The earthing point for the screen is at the first Digital Controller in a group located together and supplied from one switchboard. It gives better protection to the greater number of Digital Controllers. This arrangement does not remove the hazard that the screen voltage at point A in the figure is not at the earth voltage of that Digital Controller. Nor does it remove the possibility of damage to the RS485 ICs if the voltage difference exceeds the voltage ratings of the IC.

If the three Digital Controllers in Control Panel No. 2 are solidly bonded together and to earth, then it is possible that only the RS485 IC in the Digital Controller in Control Panel No. 1 will be damaged.

A-4.2.9.2. Use of GENII POLY SWITCH Boards. The GENII Poly Switch

Boards provide some protection from over-voltage and voltage spikes. To achieve the maximum benefit, Poly Switches should be fitted to all Digital Controllers in a network. Fitting Poly Switches to all Digital Controllers results in the screen(s) being unearthed because the Poly Switches do not link the screen Terminal 91 to the Common and Terminal 2. An external earth must be fitted to Terminal 91 of the Digital Controller where the screens are to be earthed.

When the Digital Controllers are supplied from two different switchboards (Figure A-

17), the hazardous situation is still a possibility in the event of a fault. The Poly Switches may protect the RS485 ICs providing that the voltage differences are not excessive. Fitting the screen earth at the single Digital Controller is not the preferred location.

Installation Instructions for Innotech Genesis Systems

Figure A-18 shows the preferred connection point for the screen earth. Fitting it on the screen terminal of one of a group of Digital Controllers gives optimum protection to the greater number of Digital Controllers. The earthing point for the screen is at the first Digital Controller in a group located together and supplied from one switchboard. This preferred connection point does not remove the hazard that the screen voltage at point A of Figure A-18 is not at earth voltage.
