genisys is a culmination of 12 years experience in the field of specialist vehicle electronic management and its applications. genisys is packed with features and benefits applicable to a number of sources and resources during the life span of a typical specialist vehicle application.
Features of the genisys suit of systems.
End User Programmability: Unique / custom designed Windows based application software designed for ease of use and is specifically aimed at specialist vehicle applications. Password protected to allow approved client access to the software package. Event driven dynamic space state machine – immensely powerful and configurable / flexible.
Software designed so that someone with a competence in the design of electrical systems and their applications will be able to program. Output fuse ratings are set in software therefore no need for inline fuses – Circuits constantly monitored for compliance with threshold voltages. Software is uploaded onto the main ECU only – Other systems may require each module or node
to be updated individually (extremely time consuming and prone to error). Auto generation of all necessary documentation, wiring pin outs and switch labels. System Elements A system comprises of a main ECU / Input module together with a combination of output modules and keypads. System can be centrally mounted on an insulated bus bar or “multiplexed” around the vehicle to aid installation and reduce wiring runs. “Plug and play” harness connectors to maximise build speed. Output modules are extremely powerful – each rated at total output of 150amps. ECU has 24 digital inputs and 4 analogue inputs, which can be specified and set within the software. Extremely compact and light tactile switch panels – Custom keypads can be designed and manufactured for clients to complement the system. 3.5-inch touch screen and application software is the flagship keypad of the genisys range. Solid-state technology is utilised instead of large industrial relays – greatly reduces size and weight of modules.
Voice Alert Twin channel voice alert interface for internal / external or front / rear announcements. Provides audible health and safety / vehicle condition annunciations. Any WAV file can be played on the system. WAVs can be generated using our text to speech package – male / female voice with a number of language settings which will be applicable to export markets. In addition to this; announcements can be recorded and saved by the client. Negative output to mute the chassis radio as required. Complementary text messages can be displayed on the LCD variant keypad or touch screen monitor.
Fault Diagnosis LED’s are provided on all modules to aid the fault finding process. Faults are logged on the systems memory for interrogation at a later date. System is constantly monitoring itself checking for fault conditions. Faults can be displayed on LCD variant keypad or touch screen and/or notified using the voice alert function.
General System designed to be future proof – allowing for customer specific projects and adaptations as market trends change
Benefits of genisys Suit of Systems
Vehicle Converter Perceived benefits: Ease of installation. Increased speed of conversion process. High end switching system. Deskills the design & installation process. More reliable and repeatable installation. Fault diagnosis is easier than with conventional installations. Complicated functions and interactions can be easily achieved. Modular building blocks, which can be centrally mounted or “multiplexed” around the vehicle to reduce wiring harness requirements. End user programmable, allowing increased flexibility and control over the operating characteristics of a vehicle.
End User Perceived benefits: Ease of use. Neat and aesthetically pleasing switch panels. Greater operational flexibility than “Hard Wired” options. Automatic control of functions where necessary which requires less interaction. Correct programming will preserve battery capacity. Health and Safety announcements and visual warnings.
Fleet Management Perceived benefits: Standard installation, therefore reducing servicing and maintenance costs. Software driven so ensures that the vehicle is operated correctly and in line with company / legal guidelines. Health and safety issues can be easily addressed. Reduces parasitic loads on the batteries, prolonging life of batteries and reduces vehicle off road time and all associated direct and indirect costs. Fault diagnosis is easier and overall reliability is improved. Cost effective transfer of equipment at the end of the vehicles life. Complies with EMC legislation. The same equipment can be used across the entire range of fleet variants – Standard stock holdings & technical instruction for maintenance staff.
