9.9 Configuration PROFINET-I-Device / Shared-Device
n
I-Device
(
I
ntelligent
d
evice) offers PROFINET I/O communication of a CPU with I/O
periphery as "intelligent device" to a higher-lever CPU. Here the communication hap-
pens by means of an I/O area, which was defined in the I-Device, before.
n
Thus the higher-lever CPU can communicate with the I/O area VIPA specific settings
are necessary in the I-Device.
n
In addition an I/O area for the communication is to be defined in the I-Device and the
hardware configuration is to be imported as GSD file in the higher-lever VIPA CPU.
n
With
Shared-Device
different IO controllers can independently access one IO device
by means of Shared-Devices. Here during configuration of an IO device the corre-
sponding I/O component can be assigned to a specified controller. For example,
standard CPU and fail-safe CPU use the same peripheral system.
After you have defined the I/O area for data transfer of the I-Device the following VIPA
specific functions are to be activated in the properties of the corresponding I-Device:
n
‘I-Device
è
I-Device mode’
:
‘Parameter assignment for the PN interface and its ports
on the higher-lever IO controller’
n
‘General
è
Interface: [Properties]’
:
‘Use different method to obtain IP address’
Create an I-Device GSD file and install it at your hardware catalog with
‘Options
è
Create GSD file for I-Device’
. Open the hardware configuration of your higher-lever
VIPA CPU and connect your I-Device from
‘Preconfigured Stations’
.
The PROFINET CPU from VIPA can not be configured as I-Device but it supports I- and
Shared-Devices. For this to configure the CPU 315-4PN23 from VIPA you have to use the
Siemens CPU 315-2 PN/DP (6ES7 315-2EH14-0AB0 V3.2) from the hardware catalog.
For this the Siemens SIMATIC manager starting with V 5.5, SP2 is necessary.
Besides the configuration, by means of the Siemens CPU 315-2 PN/DP (6ES7
315-2EH14-0AB0 V3.2), no further VIPA specific adjustments are required for Shared-
Devices.
