4 Communication
Communication runs via the following interfaces:
 Ethernet interfaces
 Fieldbus interfaces
4.1 HIMatrix Communication Protocols
Depending on the HIMatrix controller and its interfaces, different communication protocols can
be activated:
1. safeethernet and SNTP are activated by default in all HIMatrix systems.
2. Communication via serial interfaces requires the use of appropriate fieldbus submodules
and, possibly, an additional license (software activation code).
Refer to the communication manuals (HI 801 101 E, HI 800 009 E, HI 800 003 E and
HI 800 329 E) for further information.
3. All Ethernet protocols can be tested without software activation code for 5000 operating
hours.
i
After 5000 operating hours, communication continues until the controller is stopped.
Afterwards, the user program cannot be started without a valid license for the protocols used in
the project (invalid configuration).
Order the software activation code on time!
The software activation code can be generated on the HIMA website using the system ID of the
controller (value 1...65 535).
The software activation code is intrinsically tied to this system ID. One license can only be used
one time for a specific system ID. For this reason, only activate the code when the system ID
has been uniquely defined.
HIMatrix systems support the following Ethernet interface communication protocols.
 safeethernet, redundant operation possible for F*03 controllers
 Modbus TCP master
 Modbus TCP slave
 Send/Receive TCP
 SNTP
 EtherNet/IP
Only up to CPU OS V6.x (ELOP II Factory)
 PROFINET IO controller
Only F*03
 PROFINET IO device
Only F*03
Each protocol can be used once per controller.
Communication options for serial interfaces are described in Chapter 4.3.
4.2 Ethernet Communication
4.2.1 safeethernet
An overview of safeethernet is available in the corresponding chapter of the SILworX
communication manual (HI 801 101 E).
When configuring safety-related communication, observe the instructions specified in the safety
manual (HI 800 023 E).
