PROFINET
6.4.1
Adapter
If you carry out a search in the System Manager for devices, the CCAT interface for the PROFINET interface
will automatically be found. CCAT is a Beckhoff-internal software and hardware interface for various bus
systems, which in the case of the CX8093 contains PROFINET support.
The adapter
Reference
must thereby refer to the CCAT.
The Freerun Cycle Time is the time at which the PROFINET is triggered in the Config Mode. This not served
from the TwinCAT real-time and is therefore only conditionally real-time-capable, which may lead to
PROFINET failures in the case of the master. In such cases you can either increase the Freerun Cycle Time
or switch the TwinCAT on the CX to RUN mode.
6.4.2
Interface
PROFINET communication takes place via the switched ports X101 and X102.
The port X001 is not PROFINET, but Ethernet and can be used as a programming interface.
Note
Use the correct IP addresses
• PROFINET IP address:
172.16.17
.200
• Ethernet IP address:
172.16.18
.200
PROFINET name and IP address
On delivery DIP switches 9 and 10 are set to ON and DIP switches 1 to 8 are set to OFF. This means that
the PROFINET interface possesses neither a name nor an IP address. Usually the IP address is specified by
the PROFINET controller; there are various possibilities for the PROFINET name:
• No name
• Name with DIP switch
