1.2 PROFINET for IRC5
General
The PROFINET network is running on the IRC5 main computer and does not require
any additional hardware. PROFINET as described in this manual requires the main
computer DSQC1000.
Options
With option PROFINET Controller/Device, the IRC5 controller can act as a controller,
device, or both on the PROFINET network.
With option PROFINET Device, the IRC5 controller can only act as a device.
Compatibility
For RobotWare 6.06 and later, the PROFINET device is certified by PROFIBUS &
PROFINET International (PI) with conformance class B/ NetLoad Class II and the
device profiles; PROFIenergy and PROFIsafe.
PROFINET device is certified for the PROFINET version 2.33.
Configuration programs
To be able to configure the PROFINET controller, an external PROFINET
configuration tool is needed. There are two different versions available:
PROFINET-IO Configurator Express and PROFINET-IO Configurator Professional.
Supplied in the RobotWare distribution package is the Express version, see
the third party tool information on page
additional features and can be bought separately.
The PROFINET internal device does not require any external configuration tool for
the IRC5 controller. A connecting PLC or other controller needs to use the provided
GSDML file and its vendor specific configuration tool to be able to connect to the
PROFINET internal device.

Tip
If only PROFINET device functionality is required, then the option PROFINET
Anybus Device can also be used.

Note
Note that the network settings are set for the Connection, i.e. the physical
connector on the main computer used for the PROFINET network.
This means that the network settings are shared between the internal device and
the internal controller if the IRC5 controller acts as both on the PROFINET
network.
