2 General device description

e:cue Nodes are a system of interfaces and provide various connection types like DMX/RDM, DALI, digital

inputs and outputs etc.

The Genius is a relay controller and energy meter that combines measuring and switching load in a single

device. Communication with any third party system is made via the Modbus RTU / ASCII protocol at an RS-

485 interface. The Genius provides bistable relay interfaces in single-pole, single-throw conguration,

accompanied by manual switches for service overrides. It is a modular basic solution for controlling lighting

installations. The Genius is easily mounted on standard 35 mm DIN rails, or with a key hole in the housing base

on walls or on any stable vertical surface. The Node is AC line powered.

Measured data: Voltage

Current

Power (active, apparent, reactive)

Power factor

Energy (active)

Phase

Line frequency

Status.

For the detailed list see “13 Modbus register list” (page 23).
