R30iB Plus Profinet I-Device, IO-Controller, and Safety (CP1604)

Configuration with Firmware 2.7
1. Overview

The following step-by-step instructions describe how to configure F-Device, I-Device, and IO-Controller function
for the CP1604. In addition to the I/O controller configuration, the I-Device function must also have the I/O device
configuration. Figure 1.1 below lists the SIEMENS Configuration tools required on the PC. The two most important
software pieces are SIMATIC STEP 7 Professional V14.0 SP1 Upd4 or up and SIMATIC STEP 7 Safety V14.0 SP1
Upd4 or up. The other software items are loaded by default with TIA Portal software. Note that STEP 7 V14 is also
called TIA Portal.

I/O Size Computation:

(Total bytes of input data of IOC and IOD) + (Total bytes of output data of IOC and IOD) + [8 x (The number of the
submodules of IOC and IOD) < 800 bytes]

The total input/output = ~3000/3000 if there are only a few submodule.

The total input/output = ~2048/2048 with 36 submodules.

Software Version: V910P/05 and up PROFINET Variant: SIEMENS
H/W Version: R30iB Plus PROFINET H/W: CP1604 FW 2.7.2.0

Please order Motherboard C (with high speed communication CPU) if I/O size is more than 2048/2048.

Note: J709 PROFINET I/O G2 can’t coexist with options J930 PROFINET I/O or R834 Dual Chan. Profinet (Molex
Variant).

The current firmware (FW) can be verified using system variable $PNG2_DIAG.$FW_VERSION

If your firmware is not correct, update your firmware to 2.7.2.0. Firmware comes with the media and option J744
(free) needs to be ordered. Contact FANUC CRC at www.fanucamerica.com or 1-888-FANUC-US to get the
appropriate CP1604 FW. All variants of firmware exist on the media (in the J744 folder). Pick pn2720.fwl which is
FW 2.7.2.0. Follow the instructions below to install the firmware.

2.1. Once you have the firmware, please copy it to USB aka UD1:, and plug it into the robot front panel
USB port.
2.2. Go to CTRL start by pressing and holding PREV and NEXT key while cycling power.
2.3. Select Controlled start (#3) and press ENTER, which performs a CTRL start.
2.4. Press MENU 00PROFINET Setup, that displays the screen as shown in Figure 1.2.
2.5. Cursor down to item #4 and change the path if it is not right. In this case, ud1:\pn2720.fwl.
2.6. Cursor up to item #4 (Download Firmware), and press ENTER.
2.7. It displays, This operation may take 7 minutes. Choose F4 [YES] if you are ready.
2.8. It displays, Please wait… (7 minutes) and alarm PRIO-633 PNIO: Updating Firmware is posted. Please
wait until another alarm PRIO-634 PNIO: FW Updated is posted and the TP prompt says, Firmware
download successful.
2.9. Perform a complete power cycle on the board. A robot power cycle performs a power cycle on the
CP1604 board too. If there is an external 24V power supply, disconnect the power supply before
cycling power on the robot. Reconnect the power supply after it is back online. Note that Robot is still
at CTRL start. So press FNCT+ COLD to get to COLD start.

2.10. Alternatively, the TIA portal can be used to update the firmware. Please see step 6.7.

4. Assign Distributed I/O to CP1604 (Configure Robot as I/O Controller)

In this step we will configure the Robot as IO-Controller (CP1604). For the example, we are assigning a Siemens
I/O Module (ET200eco PN 8DI) to the Robot (CP1604 as IO-Controller). It is possible to assign other types of
distributed PROFINET I/O to the Robot (CP1604). Make sure Hardware Catalog versions always match Firmware
versions of the devices you use, otherwise errors may occur. This section assumes PROFINET devices are already
assigned an IP Address and PROFINET device name.

4.1. While in Network View, find the desired I/O periphery in the Hardware Catalog and drag It onto the
Network View field (Figure 4.1).

Figure 4.1 Configure I/O Periphery

4.2. Click on the “Not assigned” link of the I/O Module and assign it to the CP1604 that was configured in
the previous section. This defines the CP1604 as the IO-Controller for the new I/O Module (Figures 4.2
and 4.3).

5. Export Custom GSDML File for the Completed CP1604 Configuration

PROFINET I-Device requires that for a CP to act as an I-Device, its final configuration must first be exported as a
GSDML file and then later imported in whichever project will utilize the CP as an I-Device.

5.1. The Export button is activated upon successful compilation. Press Export in Operating Mode of the
CP1604 (Figure 5.).

7. Configure SIEMENS S7-1500F PLC as IO-Controller and F-Host

In this step, we will use our existing project to configure a S7-1500F PLC as a top level IO-Controller and F-Host.
We will import the GSDML file (previously created and exported in step 5) as an I-Device and F-Device to the
PLC. Note that it is possible to perform these steps in a different project from the one in which the GSDML was
configured.

7.1. Drag and drop the appropriate I/O controller from the H/W catalog (Figure 7.1). In this example, it is
SIEMENS CPU S7-1500F and model is 6ES7 516-3FN01-0AB0 with FW 2.0. You can find this detail from
the SIEMENS PLC manual.

Figure 7.1 Drag and Drop PLC

7.2. At this step, CP1604 has to be added but the new GSDML file is not installed yet. So let’s install a new
GSDML file that was created in Section - 5. Go to Options, then select Manage general station
description files (GSD) as shown Figure 7.2.

Figure 7.2 Install GSD

7.3. Select the appropriate file that says, Not yet installed, and press Install (Figure 7.3).

8. Tips and Tricks

8.1. Make sure to use a fixed IP V4 address on the ONE and SAME subnet / as all the PROFINET equipment
you are working with / for the Ethernet adapter of your PC.
8.2. Use TIA V14 SP1 UPD4, or above as noted earlier in the guide.
8.3. It is always advised to have a clear and fixed list of PROFINET names and IP’s for all your equipment on
the network before starting engineering work. PROFINET names are required for communication,
otherwise bus fault will occur.
8.4. Please make sure you have complete H/W and F/W information of the equipment you are trying to
use. Even the slightest variance can cause the devices not to communicate. Make sure you have
EXACT hardware references, and the EXACT versions of FW installed on all the different modules, out
of the HW catalogue.
