4.1 PROFINET – Network structure
The PROFINET network structure is generally adapted to the relevant system-
specific requirements. PN6 supports a star, line or tree topology.
All IO-standard devices are included via internal or external switches 
(100 Mbit/s) in the PROFINET network.
The following figure abstracts a PROFINET network in a line topology.
The network consists of a PROFINET segment with IO controller and all drive
controllers belonging to this area as IO devices, a PC or PG as IO supervisor
as well as a HMI as user interface.
The devices shown has integrated switches.
To be able to connect the PN6 communication module to additional PROFINET
components, an integrated switch with two RJ-45 sockets is available.
4.2.1 Selection of suitable lines
The PROFINET transfer technology is based on the Fast Ethernet standard.
A PROFINET network generally consists of symmetrical shielded copper
cables in twisted pairs (Shielded Twisted Pair).
Signals are transferred according to the 100BASE TX procedure with a transfer
rate of 100 Mbit/s and a frequency of 125 MHz. The maximum cable length is
100 m.
PROFINET cables are available in different versions matched to various
application scenarios and environmental conditions.
We recommend using the cable specified in the PROFINET installation
guideline. These are adapted precisely for the application in automation
technology with regard to use, resistance, EMC properties and color coding.
There are cables of type A, B and C that differ according to the type of
installation (fixed, flexible, under permanent movement).

6 More about PROFINET?
The following chapter summarizes the important terms, services and
relationships concerning PROFINET.
6.1 PROFINET
PROFINET is the open standard for automation from Siemens that has been
developed in co-operation with the PROFIBUS user organization.
PROFINET is based on Ethernet TCP/IP – and is regarded as a further
development of PROFIBUS for applications where fast data communication via
Ethernet is essential in combination with industrial IT functions.
PROFINET is standardized to IEC 61158 and IEC 61784. PROFINET uses the
Ethernet protocol IEEE 802.3 for the lower transfer levels, special protocols for
real-time transfer as well as TCP/IP for network management and the transfer
of diagnostics data and alarms.
IT data such as statistics, programs and websites are transferred via HTTP and
FTP.
PROFINET IO
PROFINET IO is designed for the fast exchange of I/O data. 
However PROFINET Ethernet communication is not capable of real-time
operation. For this reason, PROFINET offers special real-time extensions.
PROFINET IO – Real-Time (RT)
The RT protocol is the basis for data exchange for PROFINET IO, i.e.
PROFINET IO dispenses with the TCP/IP and UDP/IP transfer protocols
entirely.
RT uses the individual MAC addresses of the respective manufacturer for each
device for addressing subscribers. Received telegrams can be processed very
quickly; the response times are in the millisecond range.
ID 442710.00
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine
Real-time data has a higher priority than standard TCP/IP data – it is assigned
priority 7 (Network Control). RT data is always preferentially handled by a
switch.
Cyclic data as well as event-controlled messages are generally transferred via
the RT protocol.
6.2 Device classes and device addressing
PROFINET distinguishes between various device classes and uses device
names for addressing the devices in the network.
6.2.1 Device classes
PROFIdrive distinguishes between the following device classes for PROFINET
IO.
IO supervisor
An IO supervisor is typically an engineering and diagnostics software that can
access all process and configuration data. A Supervisor is generally only
temporarily included in the network.
IO controller
An IO controller controls data communication, i.e. it receives process data and
event-controlled messages and processes them. A programmable logic
controller generally takes the role of the IO controller (PLC, e.g. SIMATIC S7-
1500).
IO device
An IO device is typically a decentrally arranged I/O field device (e.g. a SD6
drive controller) that is assigned to at least one IO controller. An IO device
transfers process and configuration data as well as alarms. It generally
consists of modules that include individual input and output signals of the
respective process.

6.2.2 Device addressing separated by a period – in the same way as the IP address.
All PROFINET IO subscribers are based on the Industrial Ethernet-Standard,

• An underscore is a prohibited character.

MAC address
A MAC address consists of a fixed and a variable part. The fixed part identifies
the manufacturer and the variable part distinguishes between the individual
Ethernet subscribers and must have a unique global assignment.

IP address – Value range

An IP address always consists of 4 decimal numbers within the value range 0
– 255 separated by a period. It must be unique within a (sub)network.

characterization via PROFIdrive and feature compatible behavior.

6.4 Cyclic and acyclic data transfer

IO controllers control and regulate data communication with IO devices.
A controller cyclically transfers time-critical data such as control information to
the devices and receives current status signals from them.
In addition the controller and device acyclically exchange non-time-critical data
such as parameter values to be configured or one-off events.
Both communication services run in parallel whereby the cyclic data has a
higher priority. If required, an acyclic telegram is interlaced in each cyclic data
exchange which hardly affects the bus speed.

Communication relations and communication channels

To be able to exchange data, the IO controller and IO devices require a
precisely specified connection (Application Relation, AR). This connection is
the basis for different Communication Relations (CR), i.e. unique
communication channels must be defined within a connection that ultimately
realize the data exchange between controller and device.

6.5 Monitoring and diagnostics
6.5.1 Connection monitoring
To prevent the drive reacting in an undesirable manner when the PROFINET
connection is interrupted (cable break, etc.), the arrival of the cyclic process
data should be monitored.
PROFINET provides a Response monitoring time for the connection
monitoring that defines the so-called IO cycle together with the Update time. 
The update time determines the time interval in which the data is transferred
from an IO controller to the relevant IO device (outputs) and vice versa (inputs).
Among other things, it depends on the data volume to be transferred and is
generally automatically calculated in the TIA Portal for each IO device (see
5.2.4 Configure IO controller).
The response monitoring time corresponds to the number of permitted cycles
without data transfer.
In addition to the response monitoring time, the A109 PZD timeout parameter
can be activated in the DriveControlSuite. If the timeout is activated, the drive
controller behaves in the event of an error as follows:
ID 442710.00
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine
After an error has occurred, the defined response monitoring time first elapses
than the timeout defined in A109 starts.
When this time elapses, the drive controller changes to the Fault device state
and shows the 52:Communication event with the 4:PZD timeout cause on the
display.
Note that the event from this time is triggered cyclically until the cause is
rectified. The cycle does not depend on the time of the acknowledgement.
6.5.2 States of the bus communication
The PN6 communication module is equipped with a green RUN LED and a red
ERROR LED that visualize the connection to the controller and the state of the
data transfer.
In addition each of the two RJ-45 sockets has two integrated diodes – Link
(green) and Act (orange) – that report the connection and communication
status as viewed by the hardware.
Detailed information about the state of the bus communication can be taken
from the A271 PN state or A278[5] – A278[8] PN diagnostics parameter if
necessary.
