Note
This WBM page can only be configured with the following KEY-PLUGs:

• Client: W740 iFeatures (MLFB 6GK5 907-4PA00)
When should iPCF be used?
Note
Use of iPCF with other iFeatures
iPCF and other iFeatures (e.g. iPCF-MC, iPCF-HT, iPRP) are not compatible with each other
and cannot be used at the same time on one device.
The use of iPCF is advisable particularly if you have a large number of nodes and want to
implement highly deterministic operation. This is necessary, for example with PROFINET or
other cyclic protocols. You will find a more detailed description of iPCF in the section
"Technical basics" in the section "iPCF / iPCF-HT / iPCF-MC (Page 57)".
The possible settings differ for access point and client. Both are described below:
