5.2 TIA Portal: Set up PROFINET network
A PROFINET IO system generally consists of a PROFINET IO controller and
assigned PROFINET IO devices.
The Siemens TIA Portal offers you the option to map your real PROFINET IO
hardware environment, address all devices, parameterize the IO devices and
configure the data exchange.
Always comply with the following sequence of steps when mapping your
PROFINET IO system.
Note that the infrastructure of your PROFINET IO system is already set up, i.e.
all PROFINET system subscribers must be physically in the network. You have
also projected all IO devices via the DriveControlSuite and transferred the
project configuration on the drive controller.
5.2.1 Check network addresses
Before staring your project configuration, check whether the network
addresses of the IO controller and IO supervisor match each other. To be able
to establish a connection, both subscribers must belong to the same subnet.
Requirement:
You have already set up the infrastructure of your PROFINET IO system,
i.e. all PROFINET system subscribers are physically in the network.
Read IP address and subnet masks of the IO controller
1. Start the TIA Portal and click on Online & Diagnostics > Accessible
devices.
The Accessible devices window opens.
Type of the PG/PC
interface
Select PN/IE.
PG/PC
interface
Select the network connection that you use.
2. Click on Start search.
If an online connection can be set up, all networked subscribers of
your physical PROFINET system together with the specification of the
respective device type as well as the associated IP and MAC
addresses are listed.
Read IP address and subnet masks of the IO supervisor
3. IO supervisor: Click on Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center >
View your active networks in the MS Windows system environment.
4. Connections section: click on the relevant LAN connection.
The Status of LAN connection window opens.
5. General tab > Connection section: call up the Network connection details
via Details.
6. Compare the specified IP address and subnet masks of the IO supervisor
with the IO controller. Both subscribers must belong to the same subnet.
