Command: Scan for Devices Function : The command establishes a temporary connection to the controller with the active PROFINET Controller on it and determines the PROFINET devices (Device and Controll
IO-Link integration IO-Link devices such as PROFINET Modules or Devices with the IO-Link Master Function (IOLM) and connected IO-Link Devices (IOLD, for example sensors) can be used in principle witho
Device Tool Integration Special configuration tools which are supplied by the device manufacturers are required for the parameterization of some PROFIsafe devices. These "device tools" can be called d
Diagnosis in the User Interface Device tree In online mode, the device tree allows for an exact pinpointing of a pending diagnosis. The error flag (red symbol) indicates a hard error, such as an incor

Aborting of the Connection (DHT) Especially with PROFINET Controllers on platforms with limited real-time capabilities, such as Linux or CODESYS Control Win V3 , a send clock selected too low (< 4 ms)
Performance The PROFINET RT data packages are transmitted to both the controller and device at a constant send clock. If this send clock cannot be maintained, then the connection is terminated by the
PROFINET and Other Drivers The PROFINET Controller and Device require exclusive access to the low-level Ethernet component (SysEthernet). As a result, for example, they cannot run parallel with EtherC
PROFINET and Older Runtime Versions The PROFINET drivers require at least one runtime V3.5.7.0. For the Windows RTE runtime, at least V3.5.10.0 is recommended (problems regarding reserved UDP ports fr
