Chapter 12 - PROFINET

PROFINET is an industrial Ethernet standard used to connect automation devices like PLCs and I/O modules. It uses standard Ethernet protocols like TCP/IP for communication but also provides real-time capabilities. PROFINET supports various communication classes from standard to isochronous real-time. It can integrate existing fieldbus systems and uses application profiles for functions like safety and motion control. PROFINET devices use GSD files for configuration and address modules through slots and subslots.

PROFINET,
Industrial Ethernet
for advanced
manufacturing
PROFINET is the standard for industrial networking
in automation.

 It connects

devices, systems, and cells,

facilitating

faster, safer, less costly and higher quality


manufacturing.

 It easily integrates existing systems and equipment while


bringing the richness of Ethernet down to the factory floor.

Standardization

 PROFINET is 100% Ethernet-compatible according to IEEE


standards.

PROFINET is fully compatible with – and leverages all the features of –


office Ethernet with real time performance required of industrial
automation and ability to withstand harsh industrial environments

 PROFINET is standardized in IEC 61158 and IEC 61784


Communications Services

 Standard TCP/IP

 Real Time (PROFINET RT)

 Isochronous Real Time (PROFINET IRT)

 Properties of the I/O-Device (e.g., communication parameters)

 Insertable modules (number of type)

 Configuration data for individual modules (e.g., 4–20 mA analog


input)

 Parameters of modules

 Error texts for diagnostics (e.g., wire break, short circuit)


Communication Relations

1. Every data exchange is embedded into an application relation (AR)


2. Within the AR, communication relations (CRs) specify the data explicitly
3. An I/O-Controller can establish one AR each with multiple I/O-Devices
4. An I/O-Device can have multiple ARs established from different I/O-
Controllers
5. Within an AR, several 10 Communication Relations (10 CR) and APIs can be
used for data exchange, and they are set up simultaneously

Integration of Fieldbus Systems
PROFINET VS. PROFIBUS
• Unlimited scalability
• Unlimited address space
• Larger message size (1440 bytes vs. 244)
• The possibility to coordinates more drive axes – with IRT
updates in 1 ms range, with less than 1uSec jitter
• It’s faster too, which means more application potential
and fewer interfaces
