4.4 Configuring the external controller
General
The external controller is configured using the vendor specific configuration tool
that is delivered, or bought, together with the controller.
The tool is used to specify all the devices in the PROFINET network. One of the
devices is the internal device of the IRC5 controller. To create such a device, the
GSDML file describing the internal device has to be imported into the vendor
specific configuration tool, see
Location of GSDML files on page 32 .
All other I/O devices used in the network also has to have its GSDML file imported.
Example
As an example, a Siemens PLC is used to configure an external controller. The
procedure to configure an external controller using Siemens Step 7 PC tool is
described in the Appendices. See
Using Siemens Step 7 PC tool on page 75 .
External controller configuration
This procedure describes the general steps that needs to be performed when
configuring an external controller, independent of which tool is used.
Action
Use the external controller configuration tool to:
• Specify the IP address range that the external PROFINET controller operates
within.
• Import the GSDML files for the internal device and all other types of I/O devices
in the network.
• Add the IRC5 controller I/O device and set the same IP address as the
PROFINET industrial network.
• Add any other I/O devices.
• Set the properties of the I/O devices to reflect the device's properties on the
PROFINET network.
