ADAM-6100PN Series User Manual 2
1.1 Introduction
ADAM-6100PN is a series of PROFINET remote I/O modules. PROFINET protocol is
very popular in industrial automation applications and all ADAM-6100PN series mod-
ules can comply with it. You can easily connect ADAM-6100PN modules to PROFI-
NET masters, like Siemens PLC, through PROFINET protocol. ADAM-6100PN
series module supports Initial mode and Normal mode (PROFINET mode), that
you can set by the DIP switch on the side of ADAM module. Refer to Section 1.3.3 for
how to configure it. When you configure the mode as Initial mode, you can configure
ADAM-6100PN module's IP address and related setting by Advantech APAX/
ADAM.Net utility. When you configure the mode as Normal mode, ADAM-6100PN
modules are ready to communicate with PROFINET master by PROFINET protocol.
1.2 System Architecture
ADAM-6100PN series modules can be daisy-chained in an Ethernet network, making
it easier to deploy, and helping improve scalability. You can refer to the figure below
to see how a daisy-chain connection works in the network.
