Ethernet
The control unit can communicate with the following components via the Ethernet interfaces
or be embedded in an automation environment:
Table 2-4
Components on the Ethernet
Component Function
Programming device (PG/PC) ... configures, parameterizes, programs, and tests with the
"SIMOTION SCOUT" engineering system (ES)
Master computer ... communicates with other devices via UDP, TCP/IP
SIMATIC HMI device ... is used for operating and monitoring functions. This is not an
essential requirement for the operation of a control unit.
PROFINET IO
The D4x5‑2 DP/PN can communicate with the following components via the onboard
PROFINET IO interface or via the Ethernet communication board (CBE30-2).
