Configuring An Ethernet Subnet On The Profinet Interface (C240 Pn) - Siemens SIMOTION C 230-2 Operating Instructions Manual

Connecting
6.2 Networking
Loading the Ethernet configuration via Ethernet (loading of the IP address)
If a PROFIBUS DP is not available for the initial loading of the IP address, the following procedure
starting from Windows 2000 can be used: The "Automatically Assign IP Address" setting must be
enabled in the TCP/IP configuration of the PC.
1. Connecting a Windows PC and C2xx directly via RJ45 crossover cable.
2. Boot the Windows PC. The PC does not find a DHCP server and automatically selects an IP
address from the APIPA subnet (Automatic Private IP Addressing) 169.254.0.0.
3. Load the new hardware configuration with the new IP address via Ethernet to IP address
169.254.11.22 (default IP address for the C2xx upon delivery).
Note
You can also write the user project and/or configuration with SIMOTION SCOUT and the menu
command "Load to file system" directly from the PC to the memory card (micro memory card).
To do this, select the device in the project navigator and execute the "Load to file system"
command in the context menu.
6.2.5

Configuring an Ethernet subnet on the PROFINET interface (C240 PN)

Overview
You can connect a PROFINET node to the 8-pin RJ45 X11 P1, X11 P2 and X11 P3 sockets, see
Figure "Overview of the cable connecting the C240 PN to the servo drive (digital connection) -
example" in chapter Overview of wiring diagram (Page 94).
PROFINET is a communication network with a transmission rate of 100 Mbit/s.
You can use a PG/PC to communicate with STEP 7, SIMOTION SCOUT, and SIMATIC NET OPC.
A shielded twisted pair cable is used for the networking in this case. For additional information,
refer to the SIMATIC NET, Industrial Twisted Pair and Fiber Optic Networks Manual. This
document is supplied with SIMOTION SCOUT in electronic form.
All ports of the PROFINET interface support auto-MDI(X) in contrast to the Ethernet interface. A
crossover cable is therefore not required for a direct connection to the PG/PC.
The following connecting cables are recommended:
• SIMATIC NET, Ind. Ethernet FC TP standard cable GP
Article No.: 6XV1840-2AH10 (sold by the meter)
• SIMATIC NET, Ind. Ethernet FC TP trailing cable GP
Article No.: 6XV1870-2D (sold by the meter)
• SIMATIC NET, Ind. Ethernet TP XP CORD RJ45/RJ45, TP cable assembled with two RJ45 plugs,
send and receive cables crossed
Article No.: 6XV1870-3R☐☐☐ (☐☐☐ - length code)
• SIMATIC NET, Ind. Ethernet TP CORD RJ45/RJ45, TP cable assembled with two RJ45 plugs
Article No.: 6XV1870-3Q☐☐☐ (☐☐☐ - length code)
