SD Card Slot

The SD Card Slot, located on the front of the PROFINET Scanner, can be used to transfer the
Device Name from a different PROFINET Scanner without the need for a configuration tool
such as PAC Machine Edition to commission the new hardware. A card is not required to be
present. Refer to Section 4.3.1, Transferring the Device Name with an SD Card for more
details.
Note that when installing an SD Card, the label should face to the left with the write-protect
(Lock) switch to the bottom for revisions Axxx. The label should face to the right for revisions
Bxxx. The card should enter easily and click when fully inserted. The spring action will return
the card back slightly from its fully depressed position. Do not force the card into the slot as
that can damage the unit. To release the card, press the card in again until it clicks, and the
spring action will eject the card out enough to easily grab hold of it.
SD and SDHC capacity cards are supported. An SD Card can be formatted as either FAT12 or
FAT16 per the SD Card standard and an SDHC card should be formatted using FAT32 per the
SD Card standard. SDXC cards may be used in Rev. -Bxxx units, but must be formatted as
FAT32, not exFAT.

Front Panel Port

The front panel port, located on the front of the PROFINET Scanner, can be used to connect
a computer for firmware updates for the PROFINET Scanner.
2.4.1

Revisions Axxx:

The USB port accepts a standard USB cable (USB Micro B Male to USB Type A Male, not
included). The port must be set up before using it, as described in Section 3.7 Installing the
USB Port Driver (revision –Axxx only).
Note:
2.4.2

Revisions Bxxx:

An RJ45 connector supports 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet connections for updating
firmware using a web browser.
The default settings for the front panel Ethernet port are IP Address 0.0.0.0, Subnet Mask
0.0.0.0, and Gateway IP 0.0.0.0. They can be adjusted through the PROFINET IO Device
configuration. The front panel Ethernet port is a different adapter than the switched port,
so its setting may not be on the same subnet as the PROFINET switched port. If the front
panel is assigned an IP Address on the same subnet as the switched PROFINET ports, the
front port will default back to 0.0.0.0 when the configuration is processed.
LED Operation and Connector Details
The USB port is for firmware upgrades only. It is not intended as a permanent connection.
