2.4 Module Installation
Install SD Card
The SD card slot is designed to support a Secure Digital (SD) non-volatile memory card in standard capacity
format. This optional card has two distinct uses: (1) backup storage of some key PROFINET configuration data
and (2) loading new GCG001 module firmware. Insert the SD Card into its slot at the rear of the GCG001 before
mounting the module, as shown in Figure 8.
When shipped from the factory, the SD card will have been pre-installed. It will have been programmed with
the then-current version of the firmware for the GCG001. In the event the firmware on the SD card needs to be
updated, see section 2.7. Note that the firmware upgrade should be performed before mounting the module.
Mounting the GCG001
The GCG001 is designed to mounted in one of the following ways:
a.
In the expansion slot of an RX3i Universal Backplane
b.
Panel-mounted
In both cases, at least 75 mm (3 in.) must remain clear above and below the module to allow for convection
cooling. See section 1.7.1 for mounting details.
Once the module has been mounted, connect 24Vdc power via the connector on the underside of the module,
connect PROFINET via the RJ-45 connectors and the Genius bus via twisted pair cable. Each connection is
described in the following section.
Once all connections are in place, it will be necessary to configure PROFINET. This is also discussed in the
following sections
Power Connection
The module requires a user-supplied 24Vdc
(±10%) power source wired to the removable
screw-terminal block located on the bottom of
the module. Connector pin-outs are identified
on the module, as indicated at right. The
module draws 0.2 A maximum current.
