The Genius 8CH 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 a RS-485 interface. The Genius 8CH provides eight bistable relay
interfaces in single-pole, single-throw configuration, accompanied
by manual switches for service overrides. It is a modular basic
solution for controlling lighting installations. The Genius 8CH 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.
