Configuration in the hardware configuration
Following installation, the PROFINET switch can be found in the hardware catalog under “Other field
devices -> PROFINET IO -> Network Components -> Helmholz GmbH & Co. KG -> Helmholz PN
switch”. Add the “PROFINET switch, 4-port”, “PROFINET switch 8-port” or “PROFINET switch, 16-
port” device to the project and connect it with your PROFINET network.
By calling up the object properties, you must assign the PROFINET switch a unique PROFINET name
in the project and check the IP address for plausibility.
The real device must later be assigned the same name as in the project.
