Setting The Profisafe Address - Siemens SIMATIC HMI Series Operating Instructions Manual

5.12

Setting the PROFIsafe address

The PROFIsafe protocol is used to send safety message frames between the HMI device
and the F-CPU. This means each station in the PROFIsafe communication must be
assigned a unique PROFIsafe address. When the project is started, the HMI device is
automatically logged on to the safety program.
NOTICE
Unique PROFIsafe address required
If more than one device is assigned the same PROFIsafe address, an emergency stop is
triggered and the plant switches to the defined safe state.
Assign a PROFIsafe address to the HMI device that is unique within the corresponding
local network segment.
Note
PROFIsafe addresses must match
For PROFIsafe communication to work, the PROFIsafe address of the HMI device must
match the PROFIsafe address in STEP 7. The PROFIsafe address 65535 is the default
address for the HMI device in the delivery state.
Requirement
The Control Panel is open.
Procedure
1. Open the "PROFIsafe" dialog using the "PROFIsafe" icon.
2. Enter a value from 1 to 65534 in the "Address:" text box.
3. Save your entry with "OK".
The PROFIsafe address and access to it are set.
