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.

NOTE: The following examples illustrate the maximum number of REMs
allowed per digital controller or MPC:
a. 3 AIMs (3 x 6), 3 AOMs (3 x 3), 4 DIMs (4 x 1), 5 DOMs (5 x 1) = 36
(Maximum allowed Resource Count)
b. 5 DIMs (1 x 5), 5 OPTO DIs (1 x 5), 5 DOMs (1 x 5) = Resource Count 15
but maximum number of REMs allowed is 15
