Establishing a PROFINET connection

The basic device has an Ethernet/PROFINET 2-port switch for data exchange in the remote
mode. Seen from the front of the device, the port facing towards the rear is port 1, the port
facing towards the front, is port 2.
The Ethernet/PROFINET interface facilitates:
● Configuring and monitoring in the REMOTE mode
● Integration and communication of the SITOP PSU8600 with other open automation
components in the Siemens and open environment, for instance IPC, PLC, HMI
● Firmware update of the device via STEP 7 or web server
Risk of explosion
For use in a hazardous zone, an Ethernet/PROFINET connector with strain relief must be
used.
Strain relief for use in a hazardous zone is implemented by using a Siemens IE
FastConnect RJ45.
The connection to the PROFINET network is realized using signal cables, connected to the
Ethernet/PROFINET interface at the lower side of the device.
