3.1 Information about the internal device
General
To use the PROFINET internal device, the IRC5 controller must be installed with
either the option
888-2 PROFINET Controller/Device or 888-3 PROFINET Device .
The PROFINET internal device can be used to:
• connect a PLC to the IRC5 controller.
• connect the IRC5 controller to another IRC5 controller which acts as a master.
Predefined network
When the robot system is installed with the PROFINET option, a predefined network
with the name PROFINET is created at system startup.
Use RobotStudio or other recommended tool to configure the PROFINET network
for initial use. For example, by setting the correct network name and IP settings.
Predefined internal device
When the robot system is installed with the PROFINET option, a predefined internal
device with the name PN_Internal_Device is created at system startup.
It is used to define the internal device in the IRC5 controller, which will enable a
PLC to connect to the IRC5 controller. There can only be one internal device defined
in the IRC5 controller.
GSDML file
In order to configure a PROFINET network with an external PROFINET configuration
tool, a GSDML file for each I/O device needs to be imported into the tool. These
files contains vital information about the PROFINET I/O devices and they shall be
supplied by the vendor/manufacturer of the specific PROFINET module.
For information on where to find the GSDML file for the IRC5 controller, see Location
of GSDML files on page 32 .
Template I/O configuration file
A template I/O configuration file is available for the internal device. The file contains
preconfigured names for all available inputs and outputs. The file can be loaded
to the controller, using RobotStudio or the FlexPendant, to facilitate and speed up
the configuration.
The I/O template configuration file, PN_Internal_Device.cfg , can be obtained from
RobotStudio or the IRC5 controller.
