method. For detailed instructions, see the firmware upgrade instructions included in the ZIP

Firmware Updates for Embedded PROFINET

For firmware updates to those CPUs that support embedded PROFINET, refer to the
documentation for the related CPU. Updating the CPU firmware automatically updates the
embedded PROFINET component. PNC001 Time Synchronization with the Host RX3i CPU
The internal clock value of a PNC001 module may be displayed in Command Line Interface
(CLI) commands, and it is used to timestamp entries in the PROFINET Controller Local Fault
Log as they occur.
The internal clock of the PNC001 module is synchronized with the RX3i CPU clock whenever
the PNC001 module is:
• powered up, or
• hot-inserted, or
• reset via the Reset pushbutton, or on command from the Command Line Interface.
Storing hardware configuration to the PNC001 module does not cause clock
synchronization.
If the host CPU's time is changed after the PNC001 module synchronizes its own internal
clock, the PROFINET Controller's internal clock is not automatically synchronized until the
PNC001 module is again powered up, hot-inserted, or reset.
The internal clock of the PNC001 module may be set from the Command Line Interface at
any time, using the time command.
