Emerson PACSystems RX3i PROFINET Scanner Important Product Information page 3

GFK-2738AB
Overview
The PACSystems™ IC695PNS001 RX3i PROFINET Scanner and IC695PNS101 RX3i Advanced PROFINET Scanner
modules connect a remote universal RX3i I/O rack of RX3i modules to a PROFINET I/O Controller. The PROFINET
Scanner scans the modules in its rack, retrieving input data and providing output data, and exchanges that data on the
PROFINET I/O LAN at the configured production rate.
The PNS manages PROFINET communication and module configuration between an I/O Controller and modules in the
remote rack. If network communications are lost, the PNS manages I/O states according to the individual module
configurations.
The PNS001 and PNS101 support 10/100/1000 Mbps Copper, 100/1000 Mbps Multi-mode Fiber, and 100/1000 Mbps
Single-mode Fiber. PROFINET communications on the network require 100 or 1000 Mbps link speed. Although
10 Mbps cannot be used for PROFINET communications, 10 Mbps can be used for other types of Ethernet traffic such
as PING.
Features of the RX3i PNS001 PROFINET Scanner include:
Configuration services for all supported Series 90-30 and RX3i I/O Modules using PAC Machine Edition (PME). For a
▪
list of currently supported I/O modules, refer to the section entitled Supported Modules, Power Supplies, and
Backplanes Backplanes.
▪
Support for daisy-chain/line, star, or ring (PROFINET Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP)) topologies.
▪
Four switched Ethernet ports - two 8-conductor RJ-45 shielded twisted pair 10/100/1000 Mbps copper interfaces
and two Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) cages for user-supplied SFP devices.
▪
The network can include media interfaces of more than one type.
▪
Support for transfer of I/O Device Name to another PNS module using an SD card. This eliminates the need to
connect a configuration tool, such as PAC Machine Edition when replacing a module.
▪
A front panel Ethernet RJ-45 port for field firmware updates.
The RX3i PNS101 Advanced PROFINET Scanner includes all features of the PNS001 PROFINET Scanner and adds:
Support for Sequence of Events recording with IRIG-B time synchronization of events accurate to 1ms. The
▪
PNS101 buffers up to 4000 events from up to four IC694MDL660 or IC694MDL655 32 Circuit Discrete Input
modules at a maximum rate of 400 events per second. Unmodulated IRIG-B time signals are decoded using either
an IC695HSC304 or IC695HSC308 High-Speed Counter Module. The PNS101 may also be used as a standard
PROFINET scanner when Sequence of Events is disabled.
