PROFINET is an open standard (IEC 61158/61784) for industrial automation based on
Industrial Ethernet. PROFINET uses existing IT standards and allows end-to-end
communication from the field level to the management level as well as plant-wide
engineering. PROFINET also has the following features:
● Use of TCP/IP
● Automation of applications with real-time requirements
– Real-Time (RT) communication
– Isochronous Real-Time (IRT) communication
● Seamless integration of fieldbus systems
You configure PROFINET in "System > PNIO (Page 121)".
Within the framework of PROFINET, PROFINET IO is a communications concept for
implementing modular, distributed applications. PROFINET IO is implemented by the
PROFINET standard for programmable controllers (IEC 61158-x-10).
