4 Description of the controller
4.1 General description of the controller
The RFC 4072R is a high-performance controller with redundancy function.
Programming The controller can be programmed using the PLCnext Engineer automation software. For
this purpose, the IEC 61131-3 programming languages FBD/LD, ST, and SFC, as well as
suitable editors, are available in PLCnext Engineer.
SYNC interface An SFP module can be connected to the SYNC interface (synchronization interface) in
order to connect two RFC 4072R controllers via fiber optics (FO) and thus create a redun -
dant control system. The coupled RFC 4072R controllers are synchronized with each other
via the SYNC interface.
Ethernet interfaces The controller features four Ethernet interfaces for TCP/IP / UDP/IP communication within
the Ethernet network. Two of the Ethernet interfaces are switched internally.
System IP addresses You can always reach the controller that manages the process (PRIMARY controller) via the
system IP addresses of Ethernet interfaces LAN1, LAN2, LAN3.1, and LAN3.2.
PROFINET controller func -
tionality
The PROFINET protocol can be used via the Ethernet interfaces of the controller. The con -
troller can be used as a PROFINET controller via Ethernet interface LAN1.
For further information on how to integrate the controller as a PROFINET controller,
please refer to the PLCnext Engineer online help.
Web-based management In the web-based management (WBM), you can access static and dynamic controller infor -
mation and modify certain controller settings. To open the WBM, enter the IP address of the
controller in a web browser.
OPC UA server An embedded OPC UA server runs on the controller. It provides controller data in accor -
dance with the OPC UA protocol (currently supported: Data Access). You can use this data
for visualization purposes, for example.
PLCnext Engineer provides various system variables for the OPC UA server.
In order for process data variables to be processed with an OPC UA server, the “OPC”
check box must be enabled for the corresponding variables in the variables worksheet
in PLCnext Engineer.
USB interface The controller has a USB 3.0 type A interface. The USB interface has no function at present.
