4.1 Operation
The virtual inputs and outputs that are to be transferred via the fieldbus EtherNet/IP are se-
lected and configured in the PNOZmulti Configurator. The base unit and the fieldbus mod-
ule PNOZ m ES EtherNet/IP are connected via a jumper. After the supply voltage is
switched on or the PNOZmulti control system is reset, the fieldbus module PNOZ m ES
EtherNet/IP is configured and started automatically.
LEDs indicate the status of the fieldbus module EtherNet/IP.
The configuration is described in detail in the PNOZmulti Configurator's online help.
INFORMATION
The ESD file is available on the Internet at www.pilz.de.
4.2 Data exchange
17 or 32 bytes must always be sent and received for communication with the PNOZmulti.
Fixed parameters for the input/output assembly instances are set in the fieldbus module
PNOZ m ES EtherNet/IP. The following data lengths can be selected:
Assembly Instance Input Data length Description
100 32 Bytes Inputs, tables
101 17 Bytes Inputs
Assembly Instance Output Data length Description
150 32 Bytes Outputs, LEDs, tables
151 17 Bytes Outputs, LEDs
Assembly Instance Configura-
tion Data length Description
4 0 Bytes -
4.3 Input and output data
The data is structured as follows:
Input area
The inputs are defined in the master and transferred to the PNOZmulti. Each input has a
number, e.g. input bit 4 of byte 1 has the number I12.
