Setting the PROFIsafe address
PROFIsafe address
Each participant in PROFIsafe communication has a unique PROFIsafe address. This
address is used to send safety message frames between the Mobile Panel 277F IWLAN and
the F CPU.
Note
Assign the HMI device a PROFIsafe address that is unique within the relevant network
segment.
Validity of the PROFIsafe address
The PROFIsafe address can be parameterized at the following stages:
● In the HMI device Control Panel
● In the WinCC flexible project
The PROFIsafe address that the HMI device loads depends on the parameterization in the
Control Panel.
● If a valid PROFIsafe address has been parameterized in the Control Panel:
The HMI device loads the PROFIsafe address set in the Control Panel.
● If a valid PROFIsafe address has not been parameterized in the Control Panel:
The HMI device loads the PROFIsafe address set in the project.
Note
The invalid address 65,535 is parameterized by default in the Control Panel of the HMI
device. The HMI device loads the address set in the project.
NOTICE
No integration in PROFIsafe communication
To ensure that the HMI device can be integrated in PROFIsafe communication, the
following addresses must match:
•
The PROFIsafe address configured in HW Config by STEP 7
•
The PROFIsafe address set in the "PROFIsafe" dialog box
Requirements
You have opened the "PROFIsafe" dialog with the "PROFIsafe"
icon.
