PROFINET

PROFINET is supported from COMTRAXX® version V4.6.0 and higher.
All measured values and alarm states in the system are made available via PROFINET. These can then
be recorded and processed in a PLC or visualisation system. The integration into the respective PLC or
visualisation system is done via the provided GSDML le.
In the COMTRAXX® device, only a device assignment is required to allocate the required data to the available
PROFINET slots. The COMTRAXX® device is integrated into the PROFINET system as an IO device.

Device assignment for PROFINET

To make the required measured values or alarm states available via PROFINET, a device assignment must be
generated for the PROFINET image. The device assignment de nes on which PROFINET slot the respective
measuring channel appears. The device assignment can either be done automatically or con gured
individually. A total of 255 slots are available, which can access all measuring channels in the system.
Con guration is done at
Tools > Device management > Device assignment > PROFINET.
If no device assignment is de ned for a slot, the COMTRAXX® device will generate a diagnostic alarm
when querying this slot. In addition, the data status (IO provider data) of the input data will be set to
invalid!

Data modules

The following data modules can be applied to the available 255 slots in the respective PLC or similar system.
The various data modules de ne which data is to be read via a slot. For each data module, it is also possible
to set in the respective PLC or similar system whether a process alarm is to be generated. The process alarm is
triggered when the respective assigned measuring channel reports an active alarm. By default, this setting is
disabled in the PLCs or similar systems.
