4 Configuration of the PROFINET IO
This chapter describes who to connect the ECC-DFC fieldbus controller to the
PROFINET IO. The procedure is demonstrated using the TIA Portal configuration soft-
ware as an example.
The higher-level controller (PLC) is referred to below as the IO controller (master) and
the ECC-DFC fieldbus controller is referred to as the IO device (slave).
The PROFINET configuration is divided into 3 steps:
4.1 Step 1: Installing the GSD file
A device description file (GSD) is provided for the configuration of the ECC-DFC field-
bus controller. You can download the latest edition of the GSD from the
SEW‑EURODRIVE website (www.sew‑eurodrive.com).
GSDML-V2.31-SEWEURODRIVE-ECCJJJJMMTT.xml
("JJJJMMTT" (YYYYMMDD)
stands for the date of the file).
1. Start the TIA Portal and switch to the project view.
2. You can install the GSD under "Tools/Manage Device Description File (GSD)".
ð
You will then find the IO device ECC-DFC under [Other field devices/
PROFINET IO/I/O/SEW Eurodrive/ECC-DFC-24-00].
