4.8.2 Assigning online devices (device naming)
After you add PROFINET devices to the project, you must assign each configured
PROFINET device to the corresponding PROFINET device of your actual bus configuration
(online device). By performing this assignment, you are giving the PROFINET devices their
IP settings and their PROFINET device names. To do this, proceed as follows:
• Double-click on the “Profinet (x)” node in the “PLANT” area.
The “/ Profinet” controller editor group opens.
• Select the “Online Devices” editor.
• Select the appropriate network card from the drop-down list.

You can see the PROFINET devices that have been found online in the network (online
devices) under “Name of Station (Online)”.
