The converter supports the following functions:
• RT
• IRT: The converter forwards the clock synchronism, but does not support clock synchronism.
• MRP: Media redundancy, impulsed with 200 ms. Precondition: Ring topology
With MRP, you get an uninterrupted switchover if you set the failure monitoring time to a
value > 200 ms.
• MRPD: Media redundancy, bumpless. Precondition: IRT and the ring topology created in the
control
• Diagnostic alarms in accordance with the error classes specified in the PROFIdrive profile.
• Device replacement without removable data storage medium: The replacement converter is
assigned the device name from the IO controller, not from its memory card or from the
programming device.
• Shared Device for converters that support PROFIsafe.
