Configuring the DeviceMaster in TIA Portal

Establishing A PROFINET IO Connection

78 - Configuring the DeviceMaster in TIA Portal
A this point, a DeviceMaster gateway was added to a TIA Portal project, the IP
address and device name were assigned. The next step is to establish a connection
between the gateway and IO controller before starting configuration of the IO
modules. You may need to compile and download the project and if necessary,
reboot the DeviceMaster.
Open the Diagnostics | System Info web page on the Comtrol device. Verify under the
PLC Interface section, that a PROFINET IO connection has been successfully
established between the gateway and IO controller, the Active Application
Relationships should be 1. The Status (or PWR) LED has a solid, steady light on
the DeviceMaster and the status LED(s) on the IO controller should be solid
green.
If a connection has not been established, here are some troubleshooting tips:
• Check if the correct GSD file is installed in TIA Portal.
• Check if the DeviceMaster module in TIA Portal is using the right GSD
revision. If an older version of the GSD file was installed before, you may need
to remove the DeviceMaster device(s) from an existing project, and reinsert it
after the new GSD file is installed.
• Check if the right model is added in the project. See the table on Page 69 for
supported models.
• Remove any modules and submodules of the DeviceMaster in TIA project.
Only keep the head module.
• Check if the gateway has a valid IP address. See
Page 70 for IP address assignment.
