Configuration
To be able to use the interface PROFIBUS, it first has to be selected
via the web interface. The station address of the PROFIBUS is pre-
set to 7 but may be changed via the web interface.
Further information is contained in the assemply and operating
manual of the gripper.
PROFINET
PROFINET and PROFIBUS use the same I/O register space layout. The
I/O space is periodically updated and uses a pre-defined profile which
is installed at the PROFINET-controller (e.g. PLC). The profile can be
found on the Product CD or downloaded from the web interface. The
I/O register space is described in detail in
