c.
For each slot in the BEM733-controlled rack, select a generic I/O device (such as a 16-point
discrete input module or a 4-channel analog output module) and attach that to its
corresponding slot in the I/O rack. Note that actual part numbers have not been assigned for
this procedure. If in doubt, check the data sheet related to each product number to determine
the type of I/O it consumes (Analog or Discrete / Input or Output) and the number of I/O
points it requires.
d.
Once all BEM733-controlled rack slots have been suitably populated, save that portion of the
configuration.
14. Configuration of a VersaMax Genius Network Interface Unit (GNIU) is similar to the process
described for the Series 90-70 Remote I/O Scanner, above.
a.
Add a GBI001
b.
Drill down into the GBI001. A display of VersaMax I/O will be presented.
c.
For each rack and slot controlled by the GBI001, select the VersaMax I/O device that
corresponds with the actual VersaMax device that is in use.
15. Configuration of a Field Control Genius Bus Interface Unit (FBIU) is very much like the process
described for the VersaMax GNIU, above.
a.
Add a Field Control I/O Station to the Genius Bus configuration as described above.
b.
Select the Field Control I/O Unit, then right-click it to Change the Submodule List.
c.
For each location controlled by the FBIU, select the Field Control I/O device that corresponds
with the actual Field Control device that is in use.
16. Once all the Genius Devices have been populated onto the Genius Bus topology as shown in
Figure 18, click the OK button to save that portion of the configuration.
17. Note that the I/O addresses associated with each Genius Device will have been provided with
default assignments by PME. Double-click on each Genius device to examine its properties, and
change the I/O assignments where needed. In retrofits, for example, it will likely be crucial to keep
the same I/O assignments from the earlier implementation so that the controller logic can
operate with the same I/O allocations as before. For each location on the Genius Bus, keep a note
of the assigned I/O addresses.
18. In PME, store the Hardware Configuration to the RX3i CPU. This act also stores the GCG001
configuration data to the PNC001.

GCG001 firmware version 2.0.0 is required to support GNIU; GCG001 firmware version 2.2.0 is required for FBIU.
