  • Hello,
     

    Setting up a Profinet slave, while straightforward, is a long process and can't be all copied here in the forum.

     

    First check which Profinet Slave option you have, there are a number:

    Option 888-1  Profinet I/O m/s HW  -- hardware option for a DSQC 678 in the PCI slot

    Option 888-2  Profinet I/O m/s SW  -- software option for Profinet Master or Slave over the LAN or with other Hardware Option Ethernet Board

    Option 888-3  Profinet I/O Slave -- software option for Profinet Slave over the LAN or Ethernt Board hw option

    Option 840-3  Profinet I/O -- Profinet Fieldbus Adapter in the USB slot

     

    From this, setting up is described in the manuals from the Documentation DVD under Application Manuals --> Fieldbus Options.

     

    Kind Regards,

     

      Steve

     
  • Thanks Steve.



  • Hi Steve, I have OPTION 881-1 PROFINET I/O m/s
    I set up my IO signals and can use them in my rapid code.

    Now I am trying to connect the PLC to the PCI Ethernet slots. To get the communication setup with the PLC do I need to set up or configure IP address somewhere? or I can just plug in the PLC to the etehrnet port in the PCI board.

    Thanks a lot
