Starting up

9 Starting up
This chapter describes starting up the PMX system, how to configure it, and
how the user interface can be realized and operated.

9.1 Hardware setup

9.1.1 Voltage supply / transducers

Connect the power supply cable and the transducers to the module as
described in Chapter 7 "Electrical connections".
You have the option to connect the bus system (EtherCAT
FINET).
Switch on the power supply.

9.1.2 Ethernet connection

For the PMX to communicate with the PC, the device must be connected to a
PC.
In a point-to-point connection, use an Ethernet crossover cable or make sure
that your PC's Ethernet interface has an autocrossing function available.
Only Category 5 (Cat5) or higher cables must be used for this purpose. This
enables line lengths of 100 m to be implemented.

9.1.3 PROFINET connection

Connect to the PROFINET network with an Ethernet cable.
− Connect the PMX device(s) and the PROFINET master via (Cat5) Ethernet
cables (follow the topology).
− When using the PROFINET-IRT protocol, follow the PMX sequence (Port1
(bottom) / Port2 (top) of the RJ45 sockets on the PX01PN), also see
Section 7.1.2 .
− The bus does not need any termination resistors, as active nodes are
involved. The device description file (GSDXML) is available for configuring
the PMX in the master. This is on the PMX System CD or is available as a
download from
− The PROFINET system is configured using the engineering tool of the
PROFINET Master supplier.
