2 ms. All network components must support PROFINET IRT frame priority processing.
Position values are captured with an accuracy of +/- 1 µs or better, with respect to the
highly accurate bus clock.
Setting an isochronous communication
To activate the real-time class 3 both the IO controller and the IO device must be config-
ured. To do this proceed as follows.
1. Enter the Network view: the bus connection between the encoder and the PLC is

2. Now enter the Topology view and connect the PROFINET interface of the encoder

the PROFINET interfaces of the devices.
