Module overview

The PROFINET IO Module is schematically equivalent to:

Fig. 271 PROFINET IO Module

1. System LED (SYS)

2. System Failure LED (SF)

3. Bus Failure LED (BF)

4. Interface X1, standard RJ45

5. Interface X2, standard RJ45

LEDs Behavior

The subsequent table describes the meaning of the various LEDs found on the device.

LED	Color	State	Description
SF	Off	Off	No error
	Red	Flashing	DCP signal service is initiated via the bus
	Red	On	Generic or extended diagnosis present; System error
BF	Off	Off	No error
	Red	Flashing	No data exchange
	Red	On	No configuration or No physical link
Ethernet LED	Off	Off	No link established
	Green	Blinking	Module is transmitting
	Green	Solid	A link is established

Network topology

When multiple PROFINET IO devices are to be connected, three topologies can be implemented:

• Daisy chain and/or star topology:

  Modules are connected like a daisy chain where Module 1 is connected to Module 2, and so on. The last module does not require to be connected back to the master.

• Ring topology:

  Modules are connected such that they form a ring, Module 1 is connected to Module 2, and so on. The last module is connected back to the PROFINET IO Scanner, thus forming a ring. The module can act as a MRP Client as per specification.

• Tree topology:

  Modules are connected such that they form a tree. A Module is the root node to which multiple Modules (branches) can be connected. The last modules (at the end of the branches) do not require to be connected back to the master.

Please, review your requirements to choose which topology best fits your needs.

Inputs / Outputs

PROFINET IO allows exchanging cyclic real-time data using Inputs / Outputs.

All the necessary commands, parameters and output data are implemented in Inputs / Outputs so that you can easily and fully integrate your EYE+ into your application. Assemblies are mostly mirroring the TCP Protocol interface while providing a specific and convenient interface to use. We highly recommend you read the TCP programming guide before integrating EYE+ using the PROFINET IO Module.

The GSDML file can be directly downloaded from PROFINET IO Downloads.
