Step 4 – Transfer of the configuration to the IO Controller (S7 PLC)
After the correct transfer to the IO Controller (S7 PLC), the PLC automatically carries out
the following activities:
• Check device names
• Assignment of the IP addresses that were configured in the HW Config to the
IO devices
• Establishment of a connection between the IO Controller and configured IO devices
• Cyclical data exchange
Notice!
Participants that have not been "named" cannot be contacted yet at this point in time!

Step 5 – Configuration of the device name - naming the device
The PROFINET-IO device has a unique MAC address that is part of the factory settings.
You can find this address on the name plate of the bar code reader.
This information is used to assign a unique, plant-specific device name ("NameOfStation")
to the device via the "Discovery and Configuration Protocol (DCP)".
The PROFINET-IO also uses the "Discovery and Configuration Protocol" (DCP) for the
IP address assignment during each system boot-up if the IO device is located in the same
subnet.
Notice!
All BCL 548

participants in a PROFINET-IO network must be located in the same subnet!
Device naming
PROFINET-IO defines the "naming of the device" as the creation of a name-based relation-
ship for a PROFINET-IO device.
