Create generic I/O module

For certain controllers, or if you wish to use the SINAMICS profile, you cannot use the EDS
file provided by Siemens. In these cases, you must create a generic I/O module in the
control system for the cyclic communication.
Procedure
1. In your control, create a generic device with Ethernet/IP functionality.
2. Enter the lengths for the process data for cyclic communication which you selected in
Startdrive, r2067 [0] (input), r2067 [1] (output) into the new device, for example: Standard
telegram 2/2 .
4 ms is supported as the minimum value for RPI (Requested Packet Interval).
3. In Startdrive, set the same values for IP address, subnet mask, default gateway and
name of the station as in the control system.
You have created a generic I/O module for cyclic communication with the inverter.
