8. Assign the PN/CAN-Gateway a PROFINET name
When the configuration of the PN/CAN-Gateway has been completed in the hardware configurator, it can be loaded into
the PLC.
In order that the PN/CAN-Gateway can be found on the PROFINET by the PROFINET master (controller), the PROFINET
name and possibly the IP address must be set.
To this purpose the function "Edit Ethernet Node" is used in the SIMATIC* manager. With the "Browse…" button, the net
-
work can be browsed for PROFINET devices.
The clear identification of the PN/CAN-Gateway is ensured here by the MAC address of the device.
Important:
The assigned name must agree with the name defined in the hardware configurator.
If the PN/CAN-Gateway contains the correct PROFINET name, it is recognized by the PLC and configured.
When the configuration has run correctly, the blue "Mode" LED should blink.
