MRP Settings for IO-Devices
Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) is supported by PACSystems PROFINET Controllers. Refer to the
PACSystems
RX3i & RSTi-EP PROFINET I/O Controller Manual,
GFK-2571,
To access the MRP parameters associated with a target IO-Device, display the hardware configuration in PME,
then double-click on the IO-Device of interest (Figure 30).
Figure 30: Accessing the MRP Parameters of an IO-Device
The parameters are displayed in the form at right (Figure 30).
In the
Media Redundancy
tab (Figure 31), change the
Media Redundancy
field to meet your requirements. The
options are “None”, “Client” and “Manager”.
I
f “Client” or “Manager”
is selected, set up or modify the ring ports in the
Media Redundancy
tab (Figure 31).

PME also permits the user to set up dual MRP in a single IO-Device. The two MRP implementations are
independent and use different ports. To modify the parameters of the second group, select the
MRP Group2
Data
tab (Figure 32).
