The RX3i GCG001 Genius Gateway receives its configuration via its connected PROFINET I/O
Controller (PROFINET Controller). The PROFINET Controller, in turn, is configured by a PROFINET
I/O configuration tool. This tool will require a GSDML file for the GCG001 Genius Gateway. The
RX3i GCG001 GSDML can be obtained from GE’s Automation and Controls support website,
, using GCG001 as your search term. For subsequent use,
import the RX3i GCG001 GSDML file into the Tool Chest of Proficy Machine Edition.

Configuration Overview
The steps involved in configuring a GCG001 Genius Gateway are as follows:
1.
If you haven’t already done so, use Machine Edition to add a PROFINET IO-Controller
(IC695PNC001) to the Hardware Configuration of the target control system.
2.
Select the PNC001 in the
Navigator
window, then browse the module and the Local Area
Network (LAN) configuration in the
Inspector
window, changing parameters as necessary
for your system. Note that the GCG001 will operate at 100Mbps, and will cause the
Network Speed to be auto-negotiated to this speed.
3.
Right-click the PNC001, then select
Add IO-Device
to add the GCG001 as a connected
device on the PROFINET LAN. In the PROFINET Device Catalog dialog that subsequently
appears, select
Have GSDML…
, then browse to the location on your computer where the
file is located, select it, and
Open
. As mentioned above, the GSDML can be conveniently
stored in the PME Tool Chest.
4.
Use PROFINET/DCP tool in Machine Edition to assign a name to the GCG001 Gateway so
that the PROFINET Controller can connect to it and send its configuration. To do this, right-
click the PNC001, then select
Launch Discovery Tool
GCG001.The tool will appear in a
new InfoViewer tab entitled
PROFINET DCP – Direct Connection
Note
: This tool can also be activated from the
Utilities
tab in the
Navigation
pane
by selecting
PROFINET DCP
.
5.
With the GCG001 connected to the PNC001 via Ethernet cables, and both the RX3i rack
and the GCG001 powered up, select
Refresh Device List
. Find the GCG001 in the list. If its
Device Name
does not match the
Device Name
configured on the PNC001 , select the
GCG001 , then select
Edit Device
, change the
Device Name
, then
Exit
.
