General Sub-item
The General sub-item shows information the IO Controller DTM assigns to the IO Device at startup
of PROFINET IO communication, such as the PROFINET IO Name and IP Address.
The user can not set any items in this screen.
Modules Sub-item
In the Modules sub-item the user needs to enter the actual module configuration of the IO Device. It
must be exactly match the modules used by the IO Device or the IO Device should accept the mod-
ule configuration as its actual configuration.
A list of available modules is read from the GSDML file of the IO Device. The figure below shows an
example of a module selection for a Omron GRT1-PNT PROFINET IO Device.
Defining the I/O Configuration
To define the I/O configuration the user must select each I/O module in the same sequence as they
are physically connected to the IO Device, while observing the following prerequisites:
Digital Units can occupy 2 or 4 bits of I/O data. Adjacent digital Input Units or Output Units must be
assembled into 1 word.
•
To assemble multiple Digital Units, first select the appropriate Unit listed in the available Mod-
ules list, which is not marked with a asterisk. This will indicate the start of a new word. For the
subsequent units the I/O modules marked with an asterisk must be selected until a word has
been occupied.
