personal protective equipment necessary, and pay attention to the various warnings
indicated in this instruction manual.
The Genion One gateway must be installed by authorised and qualified staff.
The power supply must be disconnected before handling, altering the connections or replacing the
device. It is dangerous to handle the device while it is powered.
Also, it is critical to keep the cables in perfect condition to avoid accidents, personal injury and damage
to installations.
The manufacturer of the device is not responsible for any damage resulting from failure by the user
or installer to heed the warnings and/or recommendations set out in this manual, nor for damage
resulting from the use of products or accessories that did not come with the device or that were made
by other manufacturers.
If an anomaly or malfunction is detected in the device, do not use it to perform any operation.
Inspect the work area before making any connections. Do not make connections in dangerous areas or
where there is a risk of explosion.
The device must be disconnected from any power supply before carrying out any main-
tenance or repairs, or handling any of the device’s connections.
Please contact the after-sales service if you suspect that there is an operational fault
in the device.
3.2.- INSTALLATION
The Genion One has been designed for assembly on DIN rail.
Take into account that when the device is connected, the terminals may be hazardous
to the touch, and opening the covers or removing elements may provide access to parts
that are dangerous to the touch. Do not use the device until it is fully installed.
The device must be connected to a power circuit that is protected with gL (IEC 60269) or M class fuses
with a rating of 0.5 to 2 A. It must be fitted with a circuit breaker or equivalent device, in order to be
able to disconnect the device from the power supply network.

4.1.- PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Genion One is a device for managing the energy in an electrical installation that has solar panels for
self-supply and an electric vehicle charging point.
Genion One is designed to optimize the energy of an installation; specifically, the contracted power
and the surplus produced by the self-supply installation, to regulate the charge provided to the electric
vehicle.

5.2- Wi-Fi COMMUNICATIONS
5.2.1.- USAGE ENVIRONMENT AND HEALTH
Like other radio devices, wireless communications emit electromagnetic RF energy.
Because wireless communications work within the guidelines contained in the radio frequency safety
standards and recommendations, they are safe for users.
In some environments or situations, the use of wireless communications may be restricted by the own-
er of the building or facility in question.
These situations could include:
Using wireless connections on aircraft, in hospitals or near service stations, blast areas, med-
ical implants or electronic medical devices implanted in the body (such as pacemakers).
In any other environment where the risk of interference with other devices or services is
identified as dangerous.
If you are not sure about the policy that applies to the use of wireless devices in a specific setting
(airport, hospital, etc.), you should request authorisation before using any wireless communications.
5.2.2.- Wi-Fi COMMUNICATIONS
Wi-Fi is one of the most widespread wireless technologies today. It is used to connect electronic devic-
es and exchange information between them without having to connect them physically.
The Genion One devices feature Wi-Fi communications in the 2.4GHz band, and are compliant with the
IEEE 802.11 b/g/n.
5.3- ETHERNET COMMUNICATIONS
The Genion One device offers 10/100 Mbps Ethernet communications through an RJ45 connector, see
Figure 2.

6.- CONFIGURATION WEBSITE
6.1- CONNECTION
The configuration website for the Genion One can be accessed in 2 ways:
Procedure 1:
1.- Power the device, terminals 1 and 2 in Figure 1 (Version 1) or 1, 2 and 3 in Figure 2 (Version 2).
2.- When starting the device, it will create its own Wi-Fi (Access Point) with the name Genion-xxxxxx,
where “xxxxxx” are the last 6 digits of the MAC.
3.- The Wi-Fi login password is 12345678.
Note: The device does not have an Internet connection, since the Wi-Fi network is only to communicate
with the device. The Internet connection must be made via the Ethernet port.
4.- Once connected to Wi-Fi, open the browser and go to the following website:
http://genion-xxxxxxx.local/
where xxxxxx are the last 6 digits of the MAC of the device.
Procedure 2:
1.- Power the device, terminals 1 and 2 in Figure 1 (Version 1) or 1, 2 and 3 in Figure 2 (Version 2).
2.- When starting the device, it will create its own Wi-Fi (Access Point) with the name Genion-xxxxxx,
where “xxxxxx” are the last 6 digits of the MAC.
3.- The Wi-Fi login password is 12345678.
Note: The device does not have an Internet connection, since the Wi-Fi network is only to communicate
with the device. The Internet connection must be made via the Ethernet port.
4.- Scan the QR code on the label on the side of the device. The QR code opens the website:
http://genion-xxxxxxx.local/
where xxxxxx are the last 6 digits of the MAC of the device.
Note: On Android mobile devices with versions below 12.0, the DNS cannot be resolved correctly, mean-
ing the Genion One website cannot be accessed via the URL http://genion-xxxxxx.local/. In this case,
it has to be accessed via Wi-Fi (Access Point) at the IP 192.168.137.1, provided that the device’s default
Wi-Fi configuration has not been changed.
Once the connection is established with Genion One, the login page in Figure 10 is shown, where the
Username and Password have to be entered.
