R-IN32M3 Module (RY9012A0)
Industrial Ethernet Module Solution
1. Introduction
This document describes the integration of R-IN32M3 Module on the Renesas Synergy™ platform with the
e2studio development environment. Synergy S7G2 microcontroller on the Synergy board is used as the
application controller and communicates with the embedded MCU of R-IN32M3 Module. The module takes
care for the complex handling of the Industrial Ethernet protocols (like PROFINET
control of the application processor. The example SW is provided in source code and thus can be ported to
other development platforms and target MCUs. Thus, it is possible with this R-IN32M3 Module Starter Kit to
quickly develop a prototype for a target application for the Industrial Ethernet market.
The software package which is available with R-IN32M3 Module Starter Kit is not only the integrated
software development environment and example software but includes a Management Tool (of company
"port GmbH") which can be used for protocol monitoring and control system. R-IN32M3 Module Starter Kit
prototype application and its communication module can be configured and monitored. Even an update of R-
IN32M3 Module's firmware is possible via Ethernet.

With its ARM
core based S7G2 controller the starter kit enables the user
⎯ to quickly familiarize with the Industrial Ethernet protocols (like PROFINET or EtherNet/IP) by use of
an application example
⎯ to quickly develop an application on the industry-standard ARM microcontroller of the Renesas
Synergy SK-S7G2 Starter Kit
⎯ to have a protocol monitoring and control system
