 Introduction
provides the right solution for all your control needs!

Providing excellent performance and functionality, Genie-NX performs simple logic, timing, counting, and real time clock operations. It is an
ideal programmable controller for simple control applications such as building construction equipments, HVAC, parking lot lighting and
other applications in which cost is a primary design issue. All programming and data adjustments can be done via the on-board keypad and
display or with the help of a software.

Programming Genie-NX with the help of G-Soft NX configuration software is quite simple, without particular programming knowledge. It
facilitates program generation, project simulation and documentation which are accomplished simply using the pick and place functionality,
allowing maximum ease of operation.

Some of its features are:

Ÿ Integrated, ready to use, wide range of programmable functions including 16 timers, 16 (retentive
selectable) counters, 16 time switches, 16 compare counters, 16 soft text messages, 32
auxiliary relays and 12 analog comparators.
Ÿ 8 digital inputs & 4 relay outputs . Two analog inputs (0 -10V) in 12 -24VDC, model which can be
used as digital inputs.
Ÿ Ability to add up to three(3) extension modules expanding I/O’s to 32 digital inputs, 16 relay outputs.
Ÿ Communication module allows programmable relay to be connected to a Modbus network through
RS 485 link
Ÿ Backlit LCD screen for display and modification of pre-selected parameters of function blocks,
viewing I/O status and programming on the device .
Ÿ Ladder programming using software on PC as well on the device with the help of keypad & LCD Display Base Module

Ÿ Memory back up allowing programs to be transferred or copied into another Genie NX with the
help of a memory card.
Ÿ Compact size –only 72mm (2-53/64") wide x 90mm(3-35/64”) high x 65 mm (2-9/16) deep, reducing
panel area requirements for lower installed costs.
Ÿ Soft keys for convenient creation and editing of programs on the device.
Ÿ Available in both: AC(110 - 240 VAC) & DC(12 - 24 VDC) models.
Ÿ Password & Parameter lock facility.

Approvals RoHS Compliant

EXTENSION MODULE
Ÿ Extension Module can be used with base module to increase I/O capacity of Genie-NX.
Extension Module
Ÿ Every extension module has 8 digital inputs & 4 digital outputs.
Ÿ Connections are made in Daisy chain fashion.
Ÿ Genie-NX can be expanded by connecting 3 extension modules, to obtain a maximum configuration of
32 inputs and 16 outputs.

COMMUNICATION MODULE ( Comm )

Ÿ - Comm (RS 485) provides Modbus communication for Genie NX.
Ÿ Possible to connect multiple Genie’s with a SCADA system or a HMI over RS 485.
Ÿ Available in both AC (110 - 240 VAC ) & DC (12 - 24 VDC) models.

FRONT VIEW OF KEYPAD & FUNCTIONS OF KEYS
The 8 keys located on the front facia of Genie-NX are used to configure, program and control the application.
They perform the following actions:
DEL
This key is used to delete a program element or a blank line, if the cursor is located at the extreme column.
ALT
This key is used for selecting/exiting a parameter in the edit mode and to show either the Parameters or Program
while the program is running. This feature is also useful for debugging.
OK
This key to is used to insert a program line, when cursor is blinking in the first column of first row. During the
parameter entry while editing this key saves the changes and proceeds to next parameter. In RUN mode, this key
can be used to select one of the 3 displays. This also selects/deselects links.
ESC
This key is used to exit the menu or a selection. During the parameter entry it proceeds to the next parameter without saving the changes.
ARROW
On the program editor screen, the arrow keys are used to move up, left, down and right. The position on screen is shown by a cursor or
blinking text
AUXILIARY or Z-Keys
Arrow keys are called auxiliary keys in Run mode. They are used as push buttons to get signals from user. If user goes in PAR (parameter
mode) , then these keys are not available as z-keys. At that time these keys are used as arrow keys

Power Supply Wiring

1. Although the Genie has been designed to withstand the negative effects of any electrical noise that might be present in the incoming power supply it may be necessary
to insert an isolation transformer between the supply and the line terminals of the Genie.
2. While using the DC Genie-NX, run the 24 VDC Input line away from the 100 V AC and 200 V AC lines.

Wiring of Input/Ouput
1. Separate the Input lines and output.
2. When the output lines are running close to power supply lines or the Input lines use batch shielded and ground them.

Programming using the G Soft-NX Software
G-Soft NX is the exclusive programming software for the Genie NX using Windows®. It facilitates:
Entering the Program: Select & Place
G-SOFT NX provides a user-friendly interface wherein the user has to only select contact type and contact
number and place it where it is required. Contacts get connected automatically if they are on the same line.
User can enter comments for better readability and for future reference .
Saving Programs
G-SOFT NX allows user to save individual programs on the PC.
Debugging
G-SOFT NX is very powerful in error handling. It displays any possible errors as the program is being
entered to make corrections simultaneously.
Simulation on PC
User can simulate the program on PC. User can use buttons provided on the screen to simulate the input
connections. Scroll bar can be used to simulate Analog input. The actuation/ de-actuation of the relays can
be monitored on the screen.
Simulation on Genie NX
User can connect Genie-NX unit to PC using a serial Communication cable / USB cable and perform on line program simulation. In this mode the PC acts as a master and the
inputs are taken from Genie-NX and outputs are sent to Genie-NX unit (and the extension modules, if connected). This mode is useful in debugging the entire system since the
actual I/Os are used.
Printing
User can take print outs of programs in two different formats, namely Short format and Detail format. Also, program Parameters and Comments can be printed.
Transfering Programs
Programs can be transferred from PC to Genie-NX and vice versa using serial Communication cable / USB cable. This saves the program entering time on Genie-NX.
Transfering Clock
With this utility user can set the clock (date and time) on Genie-NX.

Window

Error Window

Select File -> New from the menu bar to create a new program.
A blank screen will appear. Now you can start entering the program. Ensure that you have chosen proper Genie-NX Configuration before starting the program entry.
Choosing Contact Type
Position the cursor at the place where you want to insert the contact by a left click with mouse. The position will get highlighted. Choose the required contact type and Contact
Number from I/O function selector. Click on the required contact and contact number, which will be highlighted for a few seconds. The selected contact will appear at the
position selected in the program. The selected contact number will be shown with a tick mark to indicate that it has been used in the program. You can right click on any of the
contact to change its type and properties.
Connecting Inputs & Outputs
Each circuit connection runs from left to right. Please remember this when you interconnect contacts and relay coils. User can draw a circuit connection horizontally from left
to right and vertically between adjacent circuit connections. An intersection of circuit connections represents an electrical connection.
Horizontal connection
To make a horizontal connection, click on the horizontal dotted line in the connection box of the circuit. Or to make connection in contact box, press right button and select
"Joining link". Generally when an output coil is placed in the fourth column, it gets automatically connected.
Vertical connection
To make a vertical connection click on the vertical dotted line in the connection box of the circuit. Vertical connection represents OR connection. For deleting a connection
just left click on the connection line.
