Settings for PROFINET IO
This page shows the PROFINET IO AR status and the device name.
Description of the displayed boxes
The page contains the following boxes:
● PNIO AR Status
This box shows the status of the PROFINET IO connection; in other words whether the
device is connected to a PROFINET IO controller "Online " or "Offline".
Here, online means that a connection to a PROFINET IO controller exists, that this has
downloaded its configuration data to the device and that the device can send status data
to the PROFINET IO controller. In this status known as "in data exchange", the
parameters set with the PROFINET IO controller cannot be configured.
● PNIO Name of Station
This box displays the PROFINET IO device name according to the configuration in HW
Config of STEP 7.
Note
Devices with two Ethernet ports
With devices that have two Ethernet ports, only port P1 should be used for the PNIO
configuration because LLPD frames can only be sent and received via port 1. They are
blocked at port 2 and are also not forwarded between the ports. This applies to the following
devices:
• SCALANCE W786-2 SFP
• SCALANCE W774-1 RJ-45
• SCALANCE W774-1 M12 EEC
• SCALANCE W734-1 RJ-45
