For your safety, isolate the soft starter completely from mains voltage before attaching or removing accessories. WARNING Inserting foreign objects or touching the inside of the starter while the expansion port cover is open may endanger personnel, and can damage the starter. Profinet Card (710-16502-00C)
1. Introduction 1.1 Product design The Profinet Card allows the soft starter to connect to an Ethernet network and be controlled or monitored using an Ethernet communication model. Familiarity with Ethernet protocols and networks is required to operate the device successfully.
2.4 Addressing Each device in a network is addressed using a MAC address and a device name. The MAC address is fixed within the device and is printed on a label on the front of the device. Profinet Card (710-16502-00C)
I/O data, the Error LED will flash. The Error LED will be active during the configuration process. NOTE If your PC has a firewall enabled, you must add the tool to the list of authorised programs. Profinet Card (710-16502-00C)

INSTRUCTIONS 3.2 Enabling network control The soft starter will only accept commands from the Profinet Card if parameter 1A Command Source is set to 'Network'. NOTE If the reset input is active, the starter will not operate. If a reset switch is not required, use parameter 7I to set the reset input to normally open or fit a link across terminals 10, 11 on the soft starter.

Use Actions to select the actions for different object instances. 5. Click Submit to save all settings in the card. Profinet Card (710-16502-00C)
5.1 Overview Ground fault protection The Profinet Card can detect ground current and trip before the equipment is damaged. Ground fault protection requires a 1000:1 or 2000:1 5 VA current transformer (not supplied). The soft starter can be configured to trip at 1 A~50 A. If ground fault current rises above 50 A, the soft starter will trip immediately.
For successful operation, the controller must also support all functions and interfaces described in this document. 6.1 Device classification The Profinet Card is a Profinet IO-Device and must be managed by an IO-Controller over Ethernet. 6.2 Ensuring safe and successful control Data written to the device will remain in its registers until the data is overwritten or the device is reinitialised.

Frequency reported via communications is 10 times greater than the actual value. 7.3 Parameter management The Profinet Card can read parameter values from and write parameter values to the soft starter. The card handles one parameter at a time. The device references parameters according to their position in the starter's parameter list.
