In the MultiFieldbus Configuration Tool (MFCT), configure the MF device and assign an IP
address and a device name to the MF device ①. Then, download the configuration to the MF
device with the PROFINET IO mechanisms ②. The configuration is saved on the MF device ③.
Generate and export the I/O data mapping of the MF device as user-defined type (UDT) as I5x
file for EtherNet/IP in MFCT ④. You then import the I5x file to your engineering system ⑤.
Download the project to the Ethernet/IP scanner with the engineering system ⑥.
Import the generic EDS station description to your engineering system once.
Procedure
For commissioning, follow these steps:
1. Scan the network in MFCT and assign an IP address for the MF device.
2. Configure the MF device.
3. Select Ethernet/IP as fieldbus for the Ethernet interface.
4. Download the MultiFieldbus project to the MF device.
5. Export the I/O data mapping of the MF device as user-defined type (UDT) from MFCT.
6. Import the user-defined type (UDT) to your Ethernet/IP engineering system.
7. Configure the interface module in the Ethernet/IP engineering system.
8. Download the project to the Ethernet/IP scanner.
9. (Optional) Configure the modules from inside the user program.
Note
For MF devices, there might be modules displayed in engineering systems starting with slot
1000.
These merely reflect the retentively stored project in the MF device consisting of
configuration and parameter assignment.
