Smart Camera Communications For Profinet Connections - Omron MicroHAWK F440-F Series User Manual

3 Controlling Operation and Data Output with Ethernet
CR is classified into IO data CR, record data CR, and alarm CR. Within the IO data CR, data com-
munication is performed for each refreshing task period. Within CRs other than the IO data CR,
communication takes place between the periodic data communications.
Within the record data CR, the IO controller will send commands to the IO device(s) at any time. IO
device(s) will send back responses to the IO controller.

Smart Camera Communications for PROFINET Connections

You can use PROFINET IO data CR to communicate between the PLC and the reader to perform con-
trol via command/response communications or to output data after measurements.
The smart camera complies with PROFINET conformance class B.
To connect to external devices and communicate using PROFINET, configure the PROFINET IO data
CR settings with the engineering tool.
For details on the IO data CR settings in the engineering tool, refer to the manual for each engineering
tool.
Types of Communications Areas
For PROFINET communications, the following three communications areas are used in the PLC to
perform communications.
Areas Used for the Different Control Methods
Command / Response
Communications
Data Output after Meas-
urements
The Input Area (Response Area) (2) and Input Area (Output Area) (3) are assigned to continuous
memory addresses or to a variable.

This is the area to which you write control commands
for the smart camera to execute.
This is the area to which the
smart camera writes the results of control commands
executed from the command area.
This is the area to which the smart camera writes out-
