Micro USB Port
The PROFINET Controller module has a micro USB port for connection to a computer running
Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7. The USB port can be used to access
the PROFINET Controller's Command Line Interface function using a terminal emulation application
such as HyperTerminal.
The Command Line Interface function can be used to monitor a PROFINET Controller module and
check its operation. If a problem occurs, the Command Line Interface can be used help determine
the cause.
A provided driver-install application is used to set up a computer to communicate with the USB port
(see chapter 2, Installation, for instructions).
Restart Pushbutton
The Restart pushbutton on a PROFINET Controller module can be used to manually restart the
module without cycling power. The restart operation starts when the pushbutton is released.
