Configuring HRP

HRP configuration - not with STEP 7
HRP cannot be configured with STEP 7.
We recommend that you use MRP instead of HRP if you want to use the X-200 with
PROFINET IO.
HRP with PROFINET IO
Note the following information if you nevertheless want to use HRP with PROFINET IO:
● Select the firmware version V3.0 for all modules in HRP mode in STEP 7 HW Config.
If a firmware version V4.0 or higher is selected in HW Config, the parameters for the
redundancy function are always set by STEP 7. STEP 7, however, supports only MRP
mode. This behavior only occurs up to STEP 7 V5.4.
With STEP 7 V5.5, the setting "Parameter assignment of the redundancy is not set by
STEP 7" was introduced.
● If the default setting for the ring ports is used, only one device in the ring needs to be
configured as HRP manager. No further parameter assignment is necessary for the other
nodes.
Note
Create the configuration of the module with Web Based Management, CLI or SNMP before it
establishes a connection to the controller. As soon as there is a connection to the controller,
the redundancy settings can no longer be changed.
Note
Compatibility of the firmware versions
If you load firmware that is older than the firmware on the device, you will have to reset the
device to the factory defaults after loading the firmware.
If you update the firmware of an IE Switch X-200, make sure that the firmware in use is
compatible with the relevant device.
If incompatible firmware is downloaded to the device, it will no longer be possible to operate
the device. In this case, compatible firmware will have to be loaded again with the boot
loader.
