MAC Address:
MAC address of the Ethernet card (read-only)
IP Address:
IP address of the card (read-only). The IP address is read from the operating system, and has nothing to do
with the PROFINET IP address that will be used later.
Promiscuous Mode:
Is not supported by the EL6631-0010
Virtual Device Names:
Is not supported by the EL6631-0010
Shared Adapter Interface:
Is not supported by the EL6631-0010
Free Cycle:
Cycle time in Config mode (no real-time). If TwinCAT is operated in FREERUN mode, care must be taken
that the freerun cycle set is no longer than the PROFINET cycle!
If, e.g., a CX9000 is to be parameterized, the target system must first be accessed remotely; the
corresponding Ethernet port can subsequently be selected.
The NetID used can be found under the "Protocol" tab. It is, e.g., necessary for an ADS access. Besides
that, there is a possibility in the "Sync Task" tab to append a free-running task for PROFINET communication
(this is recommended). This allows the RealTime communication to run independently of a PLC task. For
performance reasons, however (e.g. in the case of a CX9000), the Sync Tasks can be dispensed with and
standard mapping takes place, i.e. a PLC task, for example, must be running in order for PROFINET
communication to be possible.
A PROFINET protocol is then added by means of the right mouse button. Precisely one TwinCAT device
protocol can be appended!
