1. General description
CoNeT Mobile Lab PROFINET on Phoenix Contact platform is one of the seven Mobile
Labs, which have been developed in the CoNeT-Project. This Mobile Lab focuses on
PROFINET on Phoenix Contact hardware using a multivendor system, where the main device
is PROFINET-PLC from Phoenix Contact.
The goal of the practical course is to understand modern PROFINET technologies. The participants on the course will acquire practical skills in setting up and adjusting complex automated systems based on modern PROFINET technologies. To help achieve these aims a special CoNeT box was developed. The box is described below. Figure 1 shows the box interface.

Fig. 1. CoNeT Mobile Lab front view

The main aims of the project are:

To train automation engineers, maintenance engineers, process workers and under- and postgraduates in modern network technology applied to control operations and automated solutions. This will raise productivity in assembly and manufacturing industries.
To develop hands-on training modules at different levels of complexity aimed at students and
company employees. It is anticipated that trainees who are already employed will need to fit
their learning around existing family or work commitments, therefore the materials will be
broken up into bite-sized discrete packages and flexible modes of delivery will be used including the use of both ICTs and face-to-face teaching.
To assemble mobile laboratories. These portable labs can be transported between companies
and universities and used to complement the training modules. Annual intensive seminars will
be organized in cooperation with industry for the participants.

Description of the components

1.2.1 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)

The CML uses a programmable logic controller PN Inline-Controller ILC 350 PN with flash
memory (Fig. 5)
A programmable logic controller (PLC) or programmable
controller is a digital computer used for automation of
electromechanical processes, such as control of machinery on factory assembly lines, amusement rides, or
lighting fixtures. PLCs are used in many industries and
machines. Unlike general-purpose computers, the PLC is
designed for multiple inputs and output arrangements,
extended temperature ranges, immunity to electrical
noise, and resistance to vibration and impact. Programs
Fig. 5: Inline-Controller ILC 350 PN
to control machine operation are typically stored in batwith Flash Memory card and additery-backed or non-volatile memory. A PLC is an examtional analog I/Os
ple of a real time system since output results must be
produced in response to input conditions within a fixed time, otherwise unintended operation
will result.
The Inline Controller is seamlessly configured and programmed according to IEC 61131 using the PC WorX automation software. PC WorX can be used locally on the serial interface or
via the network (Ethernet). The powerful processor can be programmed in all five IEC 61131
programming languages and ensures quick control task processing.
The integrated Ethernet connection (using twisted pair cable) provides for the Ethernet connectivity. Throughout the Ethernet network the Inline Controller can be reached via Ethernet
and TCP/IP. Integrated communication functions enable direct and effective data exchange
via Ethernet.
The Ethernet TCP/IP protocol is used for universal possibilities
to communicate with the Inline Controller. Using the TCP/IP to
send and receive communication blocks according to the IEC
61131-5 standard, information between Inline Controllers, e.g.,
necessary coupling variables, can be exchanged via Ethernet.
This enables distributed, modular automation solutions to be
configured.

Fig. 6: Inline-Controller
ILC 350 PN with Flash
memory card

When using the INTERBUS AX OPC server, Inline Controller

data are available in the Ethernet network in a standardized format and can be used for the different visualization packages. When operating the ILC 350 PN
via the Ethernet interface the PROFINET protocol can additionally be used.
The I/O level is connected to the Inline Controller using INTERBUS. The Inline Controller
can also be used as the head of an INTERBUS Inline station. It is possible to connect an Inline local bus as well as a remote bus. In this way you can create a complete INTERBUS system using the Inline Controller as the distributed control system.
The PLC is equipped with three digital input modules with four channels each and with one
digital output module with four channels. Also connected to the PLC are one analog input

module with two channels IL AI 2/SF-PAC and one analog output module IB IL AO 1/U/SFPAC. All these I/O are connected via INTERBUS technology.
Analog Inputs IB IL AI 2/SF-PAC
The analog Inline input terminals (Fig. 7) are suited to connecting conventional sensors for
the acquisition of current and voltage signals.
Particular features of the modules are: high accuracy of measurement, extremely rapid acquisition of measurement values,
excellent noise suppression and common mode rejection, measurement value acquisition with a resolution of 16 bits.
It goes without saying that you also have advantages in handling
with the analog Inline input terminals, such as multiwire connection or automatic contact with the grounding conductor when the
Fig. 7 Analog Inline input
terminal is snapped onto the DIN rail. The Inline terminals can
be labeled using hinged labeling fields. The fields have insert
cards that can be labeled individually to suit the application. Additionally, there is the proven
ZBFM-6... Zack strip for labeling the terminal points.
Analog Output IB IL AO 1/U/SF-PAC
The analog Inline output terminals (Fig. 8) are used in applications in which analog actuators are to be addressed. With these
terminals, common current and voltage output ranges can be
configured individually.
The analog signals are made available with a resolution of 16
bits. Physical process peripheric components of the CML
Fig. 8 Analog Inline output

Light indicators block

The light indicator block is used for the monitoring of output
signals. This block consists of 2 devices: EMG 22-LED 7S24
(Fig. 9) and UM 45-IB-DI SIM8 (Fig. 10).

Fig. 9 EMG 22-LED 7S24

EMG 22-LED 7S/24 has 7

LEDs and can be used to detect
digital output signals. UM 45IB-DI SIM8 is a block of bar
LEDs and can be used to detect

the level of analog signal.

Light indicator modules simplify the monitoring of
processes of electronic control systems. and are useful tools Fig. 10 UM 45-IB-DI SIM8
for troubleshooting. The LED indicators can be labeled individually.

8
Manual inputs block
In the CML, a manual inputs block is represented by two devices: a setpoint value potentiometer EMG 30-SP 10K LIN
(Fig. 11) and 8-way simulator UM 45-IB-DISIM8 (Fig. 12). A
setpoint value potentiometer is
used to set setpoints manually
with resistance value 10 k.
It is possible to set the output
voltage in the area 010 V. An 8Fig. 11 EMG 30-SP 10K LIN
way simulator consists of 8
switchers and makes possible the manual input of up to 8 digital signals.

Fig. 12 UM 45-IB-DISIM8

1.2.2 Industrial PC
The Industrial-PC NISE 100 K1.3 from NEXCOM (Fig. 13)
is an extremely compact and robust industrial mini-PC which
is suitable for all uses requiring small size and optimum performance. The PC is equipped with an Intel Atom N270
Fig. 13 Industrial PC Spectra
Processor with 1,6 GHz Frequency, which is famous for its
NISE 100 K1.3
very low electricity consumption. One of the main advantages
is the possibility of installing the Windows operating system (not Windows Embedded). NISE
100 is a very good mini-PC for a huge number of applications such as access control, digital
sign-posting, information terminal, configuration of the automation system, programming of
the controller in automation technology and so on.
The installation of an industrial PC inside the box has a lot of advantages. Only a display,
mouse and keyboard are needed and, once connected, the CML is ready to use (similar to
Plug&Play devices). No installation outside the box is required which is why there are no
problems with software versions and updates. All software and technical documentation is
pre-installed on the DIN rail PC inside the box.

1.2.3 PROFINET-PROFIBUS Proxy

To enable the integration of devices supporting
communication technologies other than PROFINET
we need to use the Proxy.
The CML uses a PROFINET-PROFIBUS Proxy FL
NP PND-4TX PB from Phoenix Contact. Fig. 14 illustrates this device. The Proxy combines a managed
switch with four ports with integrated PROFINET IO
Fig. 14
proxy for PROFIBUS. The Proxy is a PROFINET IO
PROFINET-PROFIBUS Proxy FL NP
device and supports PROFINET conformance class
PND-4TX PB
B. It uses a 10/100Base-T(X) Ethernet twisted pair interface. In PROFIBUS DP it is represented as a Class 1 master and uses PROFIBUS DP protocols (IEC 61158 Type 3 and IEC 61784), supporting PROFIBUS DP master connection up

to 12 Mbps (RS-485 copper technology). Proxy makes possible the Connection of a

PROFIBUS DP system to a PROFINET IO controller from Phoenix Contact. To complete the
configuration it is necessary to use PC WorX
1.2.4 Power components
DC Wattmeter

Fig. 15 DC Wattmeter BGEL0174

The DC-wattmeter BGEL0174 from Adiro (Fig. 15) is an

electronic power measuring instrument to max. 120 W for
low voltage under 30 V DC with a maximum current measurement of 5 A. Controller determines from the voltage
and current measurement an actual power consumption and
the total consumption. These are indicated in a two line 16symbol LCD display. Total consumption can be reset by the
key press. Actual power consumption is given as an analog
value, voltage signal 0-10 V and current signal 4-20 mA.

Power Distributor
The growing demand to increase packing density, along with providing fast connector terminations, places new demands on terminal point manufactures. Phoenix Contact VARIOFACE modules
meet these new requirements. They are compact multi-position
units, providing innovative features for installing power distribution in a restricted space.
Module FLK-PVB 2/24 (Fig. 16) is the power distributor used in
the CML. It allows power distribution for two potentials each in
even the smallest distributor boxes. The potentials are supplied
with screw connection terminal blocks capable of accommodating
Fig. 16 Power distributor
input wires up to 12 AWG (4mm2) and output wires up to 14
FLK-PVB 2/24
AWG (2.5mm2). The terminals are provided with labeling for P1
and P2 or + and -. The modules have a universal foot and can be mounted on the standard
DIN-rails.
Power supply unit 12V

Fig. 17 Power supply unit

STEP-PS/1AC/12DC/5

The CML uses the STEP-PS/1AC/12DC/5 from Phoenix Contact

as 12V Power supply (Fig. 17). The new STEP POWER generation of compact power supply units is particularly suitable for installation distributors and flat control panels thanks to its design.
The power supply units are available with special output voltage
12 V DC. Its high degree of efficiency and the low standby losses
make for high power efficiency. The power supply can be easily
assembled on the DIN rail or panel. It gives maximum energy efficiency thanks to low idling losses. A quick startup with LED
function monitoring is possible. The power supply provides high
operating safety due to long mains buffering under full load and
high MTBF (> 500,000 h). It can be used worldwide in all industrial sectors due to a wide-range input and an international approval package. Parallel connection is possible for increased per-

10
formance and redundancy.
Power supply unit 24V
24V power supply is provided by QUINT-PS/1AC/24DC/10
from Phoenix Contact. The compact QUINT POWER power
supply units maximize the power available to the system. Even
standard power circuit-breakers can be tripped reliably and
quickly with SFB technology (Selective Fusebreaking Technology) and six times the nominal current for 12 ms.

Fig. 18 Power supply unit

QUINT-PS/1AC/24DC/10

Defective current paths are disconnected selectively, the defect

is limited and the important system parts remain in operation. A
comprehensive diagnostics is carried out by continuously monitoring the output voltage and current. This preventive function
monitoring visualizes the critical operating modes and reports
them to the control unit before an error occurs. In this power
supply quick tripping of standard power circuit breakers with
dynamic SFB technology power reserve. It provides a high degree of operational safety due to high MTBF > 500 000 h, long
mains buffering times of more than 20 ms, and high dielectric

strength up to 300 V AC.

1.2.5 Process simulation
The process simulation terminal simulates real devices and
processes and gives a wide variety of examples for studying. The use of real controlled devices makes a mobile lab
very specific and increases its dimensions. Due to the solutions offered by the process simulation terminal the mobile lab is very flexible for teaching people from different
branches of automation. As its
process simulation terminal the
CML uses the MTB72723 masFig. 19 Process simulation terminal
MTB72723
ter terminal with touch screen
(Fig. 19) and the extension
module EWB73010 (Fig. 20). The master terminal can be programmed in IEC 61131-3, CoDeSys. It comes with different simulation examples and it is also possible to create ones own specialized simulation models.
The extension-module is connected to the rear of the terminal
through CAN BasicOpen technology. The extension module is just
an additional variety of an I/O.

1.2.6 Axioline I/O system

An I/O system makes it possible to enlarge the distance between PLC, sensors and actuators.
Signal wires are connected to the IO system nearby which
transmits information to the PLC via Ethernet or PROFINET
technology

Fig. 21 Axioline PN I/O system

Axioline I/O system is an I/O system with reduced internal delay, which makes this system faster than standard I/O systems.
The I/O system used (Fig.21) consists of a Bus coupler and
I/Os.

Axioline PROFINET Bus coupler

The CML also uses an Axioline PN Bus coupler AXL BK PN (Fig. 22). This offers three characteristic features of a modular terminal block: fast response time, easy operation and rugged mechanical design.
Measuring just 50 mm in height, Axioline also fits in flat
standard control cabinets. Axioline already supports the
PROFINET and SERCOS III Ethernet-based protocols and
will support numerous other communication protocols.
The bus coupler links a PROFINET IO network with the
Axioline system. Up to 63 Axioline devices can be conFig. 22 Axioline PN Bus coupler
nected to an existing PROFINET system using the bus
AXL BK PN
coupler. For startup tests you can put the Axioline station into operation independent of the higher-level network either using the service interface or an
Ethernet port at the bus coupler.
The device includes the following features: connection with up to 63 other Axioline devices;

connected to the bus coupler.
The module is designed for use within an Axioline station. It is
used to acquire digital signals. The filter times of the inputs
can be set to increase noise immunity. Filter times of 100 s
allow the user to implement a counter function with a
maximum input frequency of 5 kHz in the application.

1.2.7 Siemens-IO-System
Siemens ET 200S peripheral system (Fig. 26) is an IO device on the PROFINET IO. ET 200S
is an I/O system. In our case it consists of interface module
IM151-3 PN, power module, one digital input module, two
digital output modules inserted onto the terminal module and
terminating module. The use of Siemens devices makes the
automation system a multivendor system.

Fig. 26 Siemens PN I/O system

The ET 200S distributed I/O system is a discretely modular,

highly flexible DP slave for connection to process signals on
a central controller or a field
bus. ET 200S supports field
bus type PROFINET IO. ET
200S has protection class IP
20.

Interface module IM151-3 PN

Interface module IM151-3 PN (Fig.27.), with an integrated
2.port switch, connects ET 200S to the PROFINET IO. The
device name and backup data can be saved on SIMATIC
Micro Memory Card. Interface module (IM151-3 PN) supports Ethernet-services like ping, arp, Netdiagnostics
(SNMP) / MIB-2, LLDP. IM151-3 PN, and has onboard
LEDs as diagnostic alarms. IM151-3 PN can be connected to
a maximum of 63 modules. Isochronous Real-TimeCommunication is possible. The minimal Actualization time
is 250 s with IRT. The maximum bus connection is 2 m.

IM151-3 PN

1.2.8 WAGO-IO-System
The WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 750 is a modular, PROFIBUS
I/O system. The structure consists of an ECO fieldbus
coupler (Fig. 28) and up to 64 connected fieldbus modules
(3 in our case) for any kind of signal. Together, these make
up the fieldbus node. The end module completes the node.
An I/O system makes it possible to increase the distance
between PLC, sensors and actuators. Signal wires are connected to the IO system nearby that transmit information to
the PLC via Ethernet or PROFINET technology.

Fig. 28 WAGO Profibus IO system

14
WAGO PROFIBUS bus coupler
Figure 29 shows the WAGO Fieldbuscoupler PROFIBUS DP
ECO 750-343 used in the CML.
The ECO fieldbus coupler is designed for applications with a
reduced scale I/O requirement. It uses digital only process data or small amounts of analogs. The coupler has an integrated
supply terminal for system voltage. The field power jumper
contacts are supplied via a separate supply module. When initializing, the buscoupler determines the module structure of
the node, to create the process image in PROFIBUS. In order
to optimize addresses, the I/O modules with a bit width smaller than 8 are grouped in one byte. It is furthermore possible to
deactivate I/O modules and to modify the image of the node
Fig. 29 WAGO PB buscoupler
according to the connected signals without having to modify
the existing application. The diagnosis concept is based on diagnostics according to the EN
50170 standard. Therefore, the programming of modules is not necessary to interpret the diagnostic information from each manufacturer.
Digital input module 750-402
The digital input module 750-402 (Fig. 30) receives control
signals from digital field devices (sensors, switches, etc.). The
module is a 2- to 3-conductor device and has 4 input channels.
Two sensors may be directly connected to the module. As an
example, two 3-conductor sensors can be directly connected
using connection 24V, 0V and signal input DI1 or DI2.
The connection of more sensors to signal inputs DI3 and DI4
requires a field side connection module (750-614) for 24V and
for 0V, if need be. Each input module has an RC noise rejection filter with a time constant of 3.0 ms. The status of the input channels is indicated via status LEDs.
An optocoupler is used for electrical isolation between the bus Fig. 30 Digital input module
and the field side. Any configuration of the input modules is
possible when designing the fieldbus node. Grouping of module types is not necessary. The
field side supply voltage of 24V for the input module is derived from adjacent I/O modules or
from a supply module. The supply voltage for the field side is made automatically through the
individual I/O modules by means of power jumper contacts.
Digital output module 750-504
The connected load is switched via the digital output from the
control system. The module has four output channels. Two actuators may be directly connected to the module. As an example, two 2-conductor actuators may be directly connected using connection 0 V and signal output DO 1 or 0 V and signal
output DO 2. The connection of more actuators to signal outputs DO 3 and DO 4 requires a field side connection module
(750-614) for 24V and for 0V, if need be.
Fig. 31 Digital output module

The output channels are electrically short-circuit-protected and

15

allow high-side switching. This means that the status of the output channels is "high" if the
output channels switch to 24 V supply voltage for the field side. The supply voltage for the
field side is derived from an adjacent supply module by means of power jumper contacts. The
status of the four output channels is indicated via green status LEDs. As with the Digital Input
Module 750-402, an optocoupler is used for electrical isolation between the bus and the field
side. Any configuration of the output modules is possible when designing the fieldbus node.
Grouping of module types is not necessary. The field side supply voltage of 24 V for the output module is derived from adjacent I/O modules or from a supply module. The supply voltage for the field side is made automatically through the individual I/O modules by means of
power jumper contacts.
Analog input module 750-468
The analog input module and its variations receive signals with
the standardized values of 0-10 V. The module (illustrated in
Fig.32) has four input channels. The fieldside signals may be received via the connections AI 1 and Common (ground) or AI 2
and Common (ground). The connection of more sensors to signal
inputs AI 3 and AI 4 requires a suitable measure (for example
with a WAGO 4-conductor through terminal block 280-833) for
the Common (ground) and the Shield (screen) connection, if
need be. The Shield (sceen) is directly connected to the DIN rail.
A capacitive connection is made automatically when snapped
onto the DIN rail. The input signal of each channel is electrically
isolated and will be transmitted with a resolution of 12 bits. The Fig. 32 Analog input module
operational readiness and the trouble-free internal data bus communication of the channels are
indicated via a green function LED. Any configuration of the input modules is possible when
designing the Fieldbus node. Grouping of module types is not necessary The voltage supply is
done via system voltage.
End Module 750-600
The end module 750-600 (shown in Fig. 33) is used to terminate
the internal bus of a Fieldbus node. This module completes the internal data circuit and ensures correct data flow. The end module
is placed at the end of a fieldbus node. The end module 750-600
has no display elements.

For this CML the use of three special software components is recommended.
PCWORX is the IEC-61131-based automation software from PHOENIX CONTACT. It
is designed for PC-based programmable controllers such as the Field Controller (FC)
and the stand-alone Remote Field Controller (RFC/ILC) boards. PC-WorX should be
pre-installed to the Industrial PC and is used for automation system configuration and
controller programming.
CoDeSys is a development environment for programming controller applications according to the international industrial standard IEC 61131-3. The term CoDeSys is an
acronym and stands for Controller Development System. CoDeSys is developed and
marketed by the German software company 3S-Smart Software Solutions located in
the Bavarian town of Kempten. Version 1.0 was released in 1994. CoDeSys is free of
charge and can be downloaded from the companys website. With the help of CoDeSys some new process simulation models can easily be created.
Wireshark Wireshark is cross-platform, using the GTK+ widget toolkit to implement its
user interface, and using pcap to capture packets; it runs on various Unix-like operating systems including Linux, Mac OS X, BSD, and Solaris, and on Microsoft Windows. There is also a terminal-based (non-GUI) version called TShark. Wireshark, and
the other programs distributed with it, such as TShark, are free software, released under the terms of the GNU General Public License. This program should be used for net
analyzing.
2.2.1 PC-WorX
PC WorX is the automation software, which combines programming according to IEC 61131,
fieldbus configuration, and diagnostics.
The programming system is based on modern 32-bit Windows technology and enables easy
handling for the user by means of zooming, drag & drop, and dockable windows. IEC configuration elements can be processed and libraries can be integrated. In addition, the programming system has a powerful debugging system. In PC WorX, all functions can be easily accessed via the menu and you can create a project using only a few dialog boxes. You can then
immediately start developing your program.

2.2.2 CoDeSys
In our case CoDeSys is used for creation of process simulation models which will be downloaded on SABO terminal.
CoDeSys doesnt need any license. All five programming languages for application programming defined in the IEC 61131-3 are available in the CoDeSys development environment.
The development of the program is possible in 6 different IEC standard editors. Two Textual
editors: Instruction list and Structured text. 4 Graphical editors: Ladder Diagram, Function
block diagram, Sequential function chart. An additional graphical editor available in CoDeSys, not defined in the IEC standard, is Continuous Function Chart
2.2.3 Wireshark
Wireshark is a free and open-source packet analyzer. A network packet analyzer will try to
capture network packets and tries to display that packet data in a way which is as detailed as
possible. You could think of a network packet analyzer as a measuring device used to examine what's going on inside a network cable, just like a voltmeter is used by an electrician to
examine what's going on inside an electric cable (but at a higher level, of course). In the past,
such tools were either very expensive, proprietary, or both. However, with the advent of
Wireshark, all that has changed. Wireshark is perhaps one of the best open source packet analyzers available today.
In our case we want to see the dataflow between hardware components connected to the
Ethernet network.
