Adding VersaMax PROFINET Scanner Power Supplies
The VersaMax PROFINET Scanner has connectors for either one or two power supplies. If
necessary, additional power supplies can also be located between modules in the remote node.
If supported in your PROFINET IO configuration tool, add the VersaMax power supplies that will
be installed directly on the PROFINET Scanner module to the configuration. The power supplies
have no configurable parameters, but their details are included in their associated GSDML files.
Slot 0, subslot 2 is the left power supply slot. Slot 0, subslot 3 is the right power supply slot.
Adding power supplies to the configuration sets up power supply alarms. Alarms will be
triggered if the power supply is configured but not working, or configured in the wrong subslot.
Adding VersaMax Modules to a Remote Node
The PROFINET Scanner remote node can contain the module types listed in Chapter 1. It
cannot contain the following expansion modules or communications modules:
Unsupported VersaMax Modules
Asi Network Master Module
IC200BEM104
DeviceNet Network Control Module
IC200BEM103
Expansion Transmitter Module
IC200ETM001
Expansion Receiver Module, Isolated
IC200ERM001
Expansion Receiver Module, Non-isolated
IC200ERM002
Profibus-DP Network Slave Module
IC200BEM002
Adding Power Supplies between Modules
Additional power supplies can be installed between modules if necessary to meet the power
requirements of modules to their right. GSDML-based configuration does not support these
power supplies as they are transparent to the operation of the VersaMax system. It is the
responsibility of the configurator to supply adequate power to the system.
These power supplies can be added when using the
Proficy Machine Edition PLC Logic
