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
Hardware Requirements PROFINET requires an Ethernet adapter that supports at least 100 mbps with full duplex. All applied network components (switches) also have to support this transmission mode. MAC
Error due to multiple IP addresses When the PROFINET Controller is started, it checks the network for duplicate IP addresses. The operation of establishing the connection can be aborted with the error

Automatic Assignment of Station Names A PROFINET Device can be exchanged due to topology information and configured automatically. No additional actions are required. The requirement is that you have
Controller Redundancy To increase the availability of the system, you can use a second controller with a redundant PROFINET controller combined with CODESYS Redundancy . CODESYS Redundancy acts as a "
