General information about PROFINET communication

Overview
PROFINET is an open component-based industrial communication system using Ethernet
(IEC 61158) for distributed automation systems.
The PROFINET interface supports operation of SIMOTION D410 PN as IO controller and/or
as intelligent device.
PROFINET distinguishes between the controller and its assigned devices. Controller and
devices form a PROFINET IO system, comparable to a master-slave system on PROFIBUS.
SIMOTION D410 PN supports the following PROFINET communication methods:
● RT
● IRT.
Delivery condition
In the delivery condition, the onboard PROFINET I/O interface does not have an IP address
or a subnet mask.
Additional references
Additional information pertaining to PROFINET communication is available in the
Communication System Manual .

Operating SIMOTION D410 PN on PROFINET

PROFINET interface (port X200, X201)
SIMOTION D410 PN provides a dual-port PROFINET interface (X200 and X201). The interface
supports transmission rates as high as 100 Mbit/s. It can also be operated isochronous and
equidistant. The autocrossing functionality means both crossed and uncrossed cables can be
used
Each of the PROFINET ports has both a green LED (LINK) and a yellow LED (ACTIVITY).
