  • PROFINET for Network Geeks
    PROFINET for Network Geeks (and those who want to be) Introduction PROFINET is an open Industrial Ethernet standard. It is a communication protocol that exchanges data between automation controllers and devices. With over 25 million installed nodes (as of 2018), PROFINET is one of the most widely used Industrial Ethernet standards worldwide. But even though millions of users are familiar with PROFINET, not all users understand how it works. This white paper starts with a brief overview of Ethernet and the 7-layer ISO-OSI model. Then, it describes how PROFINET’s 3 communication channels fit in the model: TCP/IP and UDP/IP, Real-Time (RT), and Isochronous Real-Time (IRT). 1 Ethernet The transition from using 4-20 mA analog signals for I/O communication to digital fieldbuses provided the benefits of reduced wiring, access to network data, and robust diagnostics. The later transition from digital fieldbuses to Ethernet was also similarly a shift to a more modern technology. Ethernet incorporated and improved upon the benefits of fieldbuses. Ethernet is ubiquitous and PROFINET uses standard Ethernet. Ethernet gives PROFINET the ability to provide faster updates, more bandwidth, larger messages, an unlimited address space, and even more diagnostic capabilities. Also, as commercial Ethernet evolves, PROFINET can take advantage of these physical layer improvements. Figure 1 ISO-OSI Model The ISO-OSI Model Ethernet-based communications can be represented by a seven-layer model: the ISO/OSI Reference Model. The model generically describes the means and methods used to transmit data. Each layer has a specific name and function, as shown in Figure 1.

  • Configuring PROFINET
    CHAPTER9 Configuring PROFINET This chapter describes how to configure the PROFINET feature on the Cisco IE 3000 switch. • Understanding PROFINET, page 9-1 • Configuring PROFINET, page 9-4 • Displaying the PROFINET Configuration, page 9-5 • Troubleshooting PROFINET, page 9-5 Understanding PROFINET PROFINET is the PROFIBUS International (PI) open Industrial Ethernet Standard that uses TCP/IP and IT standards for automation control. PROFINET is particularly useful for industrial automation systems and process control networks, in which motion control and precision control of instrumentation and test equipment are important. It emphasizes data exchange and defines communication paths to meet speed requirements. PROFINET communication is scalable on three levels: • Normal non-real-time communication uses TCP/IP and enables bus cycle times of approximately 100 ms. • Real-time communication enables cycle times of approximately 10 ms. • Isochronous real-time communication enables cycle times of approximately 1 ms. Note The switch does not support isochronous real-time communication channels. PROFINET IO is a modular communication framework for distributed automation applications. PROFINET IO uses cyclic data transfer to exchange data, alarms, and diagnostic information with programmable controllers, input/output (I/O) devices, and other automation controllers (for example, motion controllers). PROFINET IO recognizes three classes of devices: • IO devices • IO controllers • IO supervisors Cisco IE 3000 Switch Software Configuration Guide OL-27302-02

  • Profinet Vs Profibus
    Profinet vs Profibus Pouya Aminaie1 and Poorya Aminaie2 1Department of ECE, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran 2 Department of ECE, Shahid Beheshti University, Tehran, Iran E-mail: [email protected] Abstract We present a step by step definition of Profinet and Profibus. We introduced different types of each of the two communication protocols. We then described the topology and performance of each one individually. Finally, the properties of them have been compared to show that which one has better performance in the industry. Keywords: Profinet, Profibus, Industrial Ethernet and Communication Networks 1. Introduction 1.1. Profinet Profinet is the abbreviation for Process Field Net, which refers to technical standards for data communication through Ethernet in the industry. These types of standards are used for gathering data and controlling industrial equipment. As can be seen from Fig.1, Profinet satisfies all the needs of industrial technologies. Fig.1 Requirement of automation technology [1] 1 The need for Profinet is felt in production automation and processing automation sections, where its use can resolve many of these needs. Profinet can be divided into two main categories, as follows: • Profinet IO • Profinet CBA 1.2. Profibus The word Profibus is taken from the phrase Process Field Bus. The scope of this protocol covers from the field level to the control level. The advantages of Profibus are as follows: 1. Low noise acceptance due to twisted pair cable being the transmission interface. 2. Appropriate bandwidth due to the use of an appropriate transmission method such as RS485. 3. Secure and non-interfering data exchange for using the token pass access method.
