13.6 PROFINET
PROFINET
®

is a data
communication
protocol for industrial
automation
and processes. PROFINET IO
defines
how controllers (IO
controllers) and peripheral devices (IO devices) exchange data in real
time.
The image sensor, VE Series camera, supports PROFINET IO. The data
communication
protocol is TCP/IP; the data transmission medium
is copper wire; the PROFINET conformance class is CC-A.

Note: In this document, outputs from the VE device are referred to as "inputs" to the controller (PLC). Outputs from the controller
(PLC) are referred to as "inputs" to the VE device.

13.6.2 VE Series camera PROFINET IO Data Model
The PROFINET IO data model is based on the typical, expandable
field
device that has a backplane with slots. Modules and submodules
have
different
functionalities.
Modules are plugged into slots; submodules are plugged into subslots. In the PROFINET IO data model, Slot 0 Subslot 1 is reserved for
the Device Access Point (DAP) or network interface.
Both modules and submodules are used to control the type and volume of data that is sent to the controller (PLC).
• A submodule is typically designated as input type, output type, or combined input/output type
• An input submodule is used to send data to the controller (PLC)
• An output submodule is used to receive data from the controller (PLC)
• The combined input/output submodule simultaneously receives and sends data in both
directions
13.6.3
Configure
the VE Series Smart Camera for a PROFINET IO
Connection
The VE Series camera and the controller (PLC) must be
configured
for PROFINET
®
.
1. On the System
Settings
screen, select
Communications
, then select the Industrial Protocols tab.
2. Select PROFINET from the Protocol list.
The sensor
configuration
is complete.
Configure
the PLC to complete the PROFINET
connection.
The default PROFINET
configuration
consists of a single module plugged into Slot 1. This module, called the Device Control and Status
Module, accepts two submodules: the
Inspection
Result Submodule, plugged into Subslot 1, and the Device Control Submodule,
plugged into Subslot 2.
The
Inspection
Result Submodule provides the
inspection
results from the VE Series camera, including Pass Count, Fail Count, and
Current
Inspection
Time. See
on page 194.
Note: The
Inspection
Result Submodule does not provide any
sensor-specific
output data.
The Device Control Submodule allows the user to issue commands to the VE, such as Trigger, TEACH, and Product Change. This
submodule also provides the user with command feedback. See
on page 195.
