The I/O template configuration file, PN_Internal_Anybus.cfg , can be obtained from
the RobotStudio or the IRC5 controller.
• In the RobotWare installation folder in RobotStudio : ...\RobotPackages\
RobotWare_RPK_<version>\utility\service\ioconfig\PROFINET\
• On the IRC5 Controller : <SystemName>\PRODUCTS\
<RobotWare_xx.xx.xxxx>\utility\service\ioconfig\PROFINET\
Note
Navigate to the RobotWare installation folder from the RobotStudio Add-Ins tab,
by right-clicking on the installed RobotWare version in the Add-Ins browser and
selecting Open Package Folder .
Communication status
To have control of the communication status, that is, to know if the controller (for
example, a PLC) to device communication is working or not, the following scheme
could be used.
The controller can set one signal during start-up or within the controller loop, this
signal (on the internal device) could then be attached to a system input in the robot
controller as a communication supervision signal. If the communication between
the controller and the device is interrupted, all the inputs of the internal device will
go to fail safe state (that is, be set to zero only) after the specified watchdog time.
This means that the user defined communication supervision signal will also go
to zero. The watchdog time is configured in the external PROFINET configuration
tool.
Limitations
The predefined PROFINET internal anybus device, PN_Internal_Anybus has the
following limitations:
• 8 digital input bytes and 8 digital output bytes but can be increased to the
maximum value, which is 64 digital input bytes and 64 digital output bytes.
• Both the input and output map starts at bit 0 and ends at bit 63.
Note
If the PROFINET anybus device loses connection with the master, the configured
input signals are cleared (reset to zero). The output signals are kept and are
possible to change.
When the connection is re-established, the controller updates the input signals.
