How it Works…

 

The outputs and excitation and USB, the network, and power circuits are isolated 
from each other.  The USB port ground is common to the output circuit return.  The 

USB port ground of most PC’s is also common to the USB cable shield and earth 

ground.  I/O could otherwise be grounded or ungrounded.  For this reason, it is 
recommended that USB signals be isolated when connected to a PC to prevent a 
ground loop from occurring between the PC earth ground and a grounded I/O signal, 
which could have the negative effect of driving digital upset or noise for severe 
ground loop currents.

 

About Profinet IO 

 

You can obtain more information 
on Profinet at the Profibus &

site

Profinet is an open Ethernet standard for industrial communication, but with 
enhancements tailored for realtime communication and industrial automation 
applications.  In particular, Profinet attempts to address the needs of factory and 
processs automation applications, safety applications, and drive technology for clock-
synchronized motion control applications, providing good realtime performance, 
improved determinism, advanced configuration capability, diagnostic capability, and 
alarm handling features.  Profinet is standardized in IEC 61158 and IEC 61784, and 
Profinet products are required to be certified by Profibus & Profinet International 
(PI), ensuring world-wide compatibility.  Profinet IO is comprised of standard 
Ethernet mixed with IT protocols, including the transport and application layer 
protocol (TCP/IP), especially selected for industrial automation applications.  In this 
way, Profinet offers scalable performance with protocols providing three different 
data channels:  TCP/IP for non realtime application data, Real Time (RT) for realtime 
transfer of critical process data, and Isochronous Real Time (IRT) for motion control 
applications. 

 
Profinet IO follows a Provider/Consumer model for data exchange and operates 
similar to Profibus.  This device operates as an IO-Device on Profinet IO networks.  A 
plant Profinet system has at least one IO-Controller and one or more IO-Devices, and 
may optionally utilize an IO-Supervisor.  Thus, Profinet IO networks recognize three 
device classes as follows: 

 
IO-Device (This Module):  This is a distributed I/O field device that connects to 1 or 
more IO-Controllers via Profinet IO.  It is comparable to the slave devices defined by 
Profibus.  It functions as the provider of Input data and the consumer of Output data. 

 
IO-Controller (PLC):  Several IO-Devices are connected to an IO-Controller.  This IO 
Controller is typically the programmable logic controller (PLC) on which the 
automation program runs.  Its function is comparable to a Class 1 Master in Profibus.  
The IO-Controller provides output data to the configured IO devices and is the 
consumer of the input data of I/O devices. 

 
IO Supervisor (PC or HMI):  This can be a programming device, Personal Computer 
(PC) w/software, or a Human Machine Interface (HMI) device, and is used for 
commissioning or for diagnostic purposes.  It is comparable to a Class 2 master in 
Profibus.  IO-Supervisors are usually integrated only temporarily for commissioning 
or troubleshooting purposes on a Profinet network.

shipped with your unit, or you may download it from our web site at
