2 Overview
This option provides a communications connection between the drive and a PROFINET network. The option
connects the drive to a PROFINET network and facilitates the exchange of data.
PROFINET is a communications link to connect industrial devices (such as smart motor controllers, operator
interfaces, and variable frequency drives) as well as control devices (such as programmable controllers and
computers) to a network. PROFINET is a simple networking solution. PROFINET reduces the cost and time to
wire and install factory automation devices, while providing interchangeability of like components from multiple
vendors.
PROFINET is an open network standard.
Install the option/PROFINET option on a drive to perform the following functions from a PROFINET master
device:
• Operate the drive
• Monitor the drive operation status
• Change drive parameter settings
SI-EP3 is PROFINET Conformance Class A certified.
