Communication via EtherNet/IP
EtherNet/IP is real-time Ethernet, and is mainly used in automation technology.
You have the following options of integrating SINAMICS G120 inverters into EtherNet/IP:
● You use the SINAMICS profile
● You use the ODVA AC/DC drive profile
● You define the assemblies for the process data using the objects that are supported by
the inverter
The pin assignment and the connectors that you require for your inverter are listed in the
following tables.
You can implement a line-type topology using the two sockets at the inverter. You only
require one of the two sockets at the beginning and end of a line.
You can use switches to realize other topologies.
