The User Interface
The user interface offers options for data entry into the Genus G1 MARK II Terminal through the keypad and/or
internal or external card readers. User output is via a 4 line by 20 character backlit LCD display. The terminal also
has the capability to produce multiple sound tones to help guide the user.
The Genus G1 MARK II Terminal offers provisions for additional display control aside from the ability to write to
and clear the entire display. These include the ability to clear a single display line, position the cursor, and select
the cursor type (invisible, block, underscore, or blinking underscore).
A Web Browser Interface is integrated with the Genus G1 Mark II Terminal to allow changes to configuration
files, data viewing and development interface updates. Some items overlap between the Offline setup and the
Web Browser Interface.

Terminal Features
Memory Configuration The terminal is equipped with 32 Mb of dynamic memory, 2 Mb of non-volatile memory
for data retention, and 40 Mb of Flash memory for program storage, and user defined long term storage.
Programmability The terminal is designed to be a Java-capable embedded data collection platform. Users may
create, load, and execute Personal Java compliant applications that utilize existing OEM classes for display,
keyboard, biometric, barcode, magnetic, proximity, smartcard (Mifare®, iClass®), and Digital inputs and outputs
(DI/DO). A software development kit (SDK) is available separately that provides development documentation,
development support, and samples for the use of the OEM classes.
Data I/O The terminal provides for program control for three digital inputs, and Wiegand Data0/Data1 input or
output signals. A relay port is also provided for external low voltage devices.
Host Interface The terminal comes with a dedicated Ethernet port for connection to 10/100 Ethernet networks.
DHCP or static IP address configuration is supported.
Display The terminal is equipped with a 4 line by 20 character liquid crystal display (LCD) The full alphanumeric
character set is supported. LED backlighting provides viewing in low light conditions. The display has a CMI
standard lens.
Keypad The terminal is equipped with a 3 x 8 membrane keypad, with three horizontal rows of eight keys each.
The terminal is available with a CMI Standard Overlay, or a custom overlay created per customer requirements.
Power The configuration uses a +18 VDC .8 amp power pack to power the terminal. The power pack is UL listed
and CSA certified.
Audio Annunciator This is programmable with variable tone and duration capability.

File System Specification
The terminal provides file systems on different hardware devices. Instead of using the common alphabet
notation for file system devices ( ‘A:’, ‘C:’ ), the Genus terminal identifies the file storage devices as:
Storage Device
Memory Size
Location
‘\flashdisk’
40 Mbytes
Seldom write, frequent read. Used
for firmware, user applications, and
application data.
‘\ramdisk’
2 Mbytes
High read/write usage. Data is
preserved through power loss. Often
used for transaction (punch) storage.
1MB of storage available. Refer to
Calculating Number of Transactions
That Can Be Stored in the Reference
chapter.
‘\scratchdisk’
5 Mbytes
High read/write usage. Temporary
file storage. Not preserved through
power outage.
Relay Configuration
The relay port brings out the three relay connections at (common, normally open, normally closed) +18 VDC,
and ground. The common can optionally be connected to Pin 5 to provide an on board voltage source. The
current draw should not exceed 100mA. This +18 VDC source is useful when driving external buzzers, lamps, or
other low current, low voltage devices or a larger external relay, since it requires no external power source.
The Relay Output configuration supports both sourcing and non-sourcing. The Relay is a Form C contact relay
rated for 1 amp @ 30V AC/DC.

Offline Mode
The offline mode is utilized during installation and setup, when the functionality of the Genus Terminal needs to
be tested or if the communications setup requires a change. To accomplish this, the Terminal must be placed in
Offline Mode.
Entering Offline
(Online/Offline setup switch)
Entering offline mode can be accomplished in two ways, the easiest being to utilize the Online /Offline setup
switch on the back of the Terminal. However, pressing the ‘Clear’ and ‘Enter’ keys during the power-up
sequence as described below will also work with the Terminal.
The following message indicates the terminal has entered into offline mode.
(Clear and Enter Keys during Power-up)
Offline Mode for the G1 Terminal Setup Mode is entered during power-up as the Terminal initializes.
Press the Cand Ekeys simultaneously from the keypad during the second set of power-on beeps. These beeps
occur just after the following message:
At this point, as the Terminal beeps it will transition to the online application, unless the Clear and Enter keys
have been pressed.
Terminal Info Prompt
The Genus G1 Terminal stops and waits at the ‘Terminal Info’ prompt for keypad entry, as shown below, unless a
PIN number has been setup then the terminal will request a PIN:
