Chapter 2 Overview
2.1 System Overview
IO-Devices on a PROFINET Network
GLM Switches are treated as PROFINET-IO devices. The host PLC will therefore use an embedded PROFINET
port or a PNC001 PROFINET IO-Controller Module. All physical connections use standard Ethernet connectors
(RJ45 or SFP).
Figure 4: Typical PROFINET System with GLM Switches
Chapter 2. Overview
4 PACSystems PROFINET Managed Industrial Ethernet Switches User Manual GFK-3030
Ethernet Devices on an Ethernet Network
The GLM switches contain a number of features which cannot be accessed over PROFINET, but are available
over Ethernet. The user may choose to install a separate Ethernet network for this purpose, or run both
PROFINET and Ethernet on the same physical network. Refer to Appendix B, Supported Ethernet Commands.
Caution
Care needs to be taken that connection to an Ethernet networks does not expose
the application to outside interference or monitoring, and does not impose heavy
traffic on the PROFINET network, which is intended to service IO-Devices in a timely
manner. Refer to the PACSystems RXi, RX3i, RX7i and RSTi-EP Controller Secure
Deployment Guide, GFK-2830.
Within the RX3i, the user may install an ETM001 module in a rack controlled by the host PLC CPU, or may use
an embedded Ethernet port within the CPU itself to provide the Ethernet features. .If none of the Ethernet-only
features will be used, no dedicated Ethernet function is required.
The following features, which are outside the scope of this manual, may be accessed over Ethernet, but may
not be accessed over PROFINET:
• Virtual LANs (VLANs)
• Access Control List Security (ACL)
• Quality of Service (QoS) features
• Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)

SFP Connections
GLM Switches provide SFP connections using an optical (mini-GBIC) interface. For example, on GLM082, Ports
9 and 10 are SFP ports.
Figure 14: Fiber-Optic Cable with LC Duplex Connectors
Figure 15: Attach Fiber-Optic Cables to Installed SFP
Socket
Prepare a suitable SFP module and install it into the GLM optical port. Then connect the fiber optic cabling that
uses LC connectors (or SC connectors with the use of an optional SC-to-LC adapter) to the fiber optic socket.
Warning
Never attempt to view optical connectors that might be emitting laser energy.
Do not power up the laser product without first connecting the laser to the optical
fiber and properly installing the protective cover.
Laser light, which may cause damage to the eye, will be produced as soon as
power is applied to the laser source.
Warning
When a fiber optic connector is removed during installation, testing, or servicing, or
when an energized fiber is broken, there is a risk of injury to the eye. Exposure to
optical energy may be hazardous to the eye, depending on the laser output power.
The primary hazards of exposure to laser radiation from an optical-fiber
communication system are:
Damage to the eye by accidental exposure to a beam emitted by a laser
source.
Damage to the eye from viewing a connector attached to a broken fiber or an
energized fiber.

3.8 Console Connection
The Console port, located on the bottom panel (Figure 16), is intended for administrative functions, and its use
is optional. It uses a terminal emulator or a computer with terminal emulation software, connected as follows:
• DB9 connector connected to computer COM port
• Baud rate: 115,200bps
• 8 data bits, 1 stop bit
• No parity
• No flow control
Figure 16: Console Port
To connect the host PC to the Console port, an RJ45 (male) connector-to-RS232 DB9 (female) connector cable
is required. The RJ45 connector of the cable is connected to the Console port of GLM Series; the DB9
connector of the cable is connected to the PC COM port. The wiring for this cable is shown in Figure 17.
Figure 17: Console Cable Wiring
Caution
Console connections should not be permanent. Once any administrative functions
have been performed, disconnect the PC used for that purpose. Leaving a
computer connected would expose the application to security risks. Refer to the
PACSystems RXi, RX3i, RX7i and RSTi-EP Controller Secure Deployment Guide,
GFK-2830.
Refer to Appendix A, Command Language Interface (CLI), for related commands and syntax.

Chapter 4 Configuration
Configuration is accomplished using Proficy Machine Edition (PME). Each GLM device has a corresponding
GSDML file, which must also be imported.
The GLM Switch Device is always used as a PROFINET IO-Device. Select a suitable PROFINET Controller within
the CPU and “add” a new IO- Device to the corresponding PROFINET Network. The PROFINET Controller may be
an embedded PROFINET Controller Port in the CPU, or a PROFINET Controller module located in a rack
controlled by a CPU. Refer to the corresponding CPU manual for instructions on how to set up an embedded
PROFINET Controller LAN. Refer also to the PACSystems RX3i & RSTi-EP PROFINET I/O Controller Manual,
GFK-2571, which covers further details on embedded PROFINET Controllers and on setting up a PNC001
PROFINET Controller module.
If the GLM Switch Device is to be used as an Ethernet Device, select a suitable Ethernet Controller within the
CPU and “add” a new IO- Device to the corresponding Ethernet Network. The controlling Ethernet Device may
be an embedded Ethernet Port in the CPU, or an Ethernet module located in a rack controlled by a CPU. Refer
to the corresponding CPU manual for instructions on how to set up an embedded Ethernet LAN. Refer to the
PACSystems RX3i Ethernet Network Interface Unit User’s Manual, GFK-2349, for instructions on locating an
ETM001 in a suitable rack/slot location, then setting up its Ethernet LANs and adding devices to those LANs.

4.1 Import the GSDML file
Browse to the folder containing the GSDML file, then import it using the Toolchest feature of PME, as shown
below. Alternately, use the Have GSDML button shown in Figure 25, and perform the import as configuration
progresses.
Each GLM Switch Catalog Number has a unique GSDML file associated with it.
Note that you will only need to import any given GSDML file once. The file can then be used to define the
parameters associated with each GLM switch of the corresponding type added to the network.
If a newer version of a GSDML file becomes available, it will reside in the Toolchest alongside older versions.
The user has the option to change the version of the GSDML file associated with each installed GLM Switch
device.
If all GLM switches have been associated with a newer version of the GSDLM file, and the older version of the
GSDML file is no longer required, it can be deleted from the Toolchest.

The Toolchest offers a drop-down list of various data types:

Since the GLM Switch is to be used as a PROFINET Device, select PROFINET Devices from the drop-down list
(Figure 20).
Figure 20: Select PROFINET Device
Right click on the PROFINET Devices line item. At the bottom of the resulting drop-down menu, under
Assistants, select the Import GSDML command.

4.2 Associating the IO-Device with its Controller
Each GLM Switch device has to be associated with the PROFINET Controller which will be controlling and
monitoring it. Figure 24 shows that the PNC001 module located in Slot 6 of Rack 0 (the Main CPU Rack) has
been selected. Then with right-click, the menu item Add IO-Device has been selected.
Figure 24: Add IO-Device to PROFINET Controller
Since the device being added is associated with a PROFINET-IO Controller, it will be selected from the catalog
of available PROFINET Devices (upper left portion of Figure 25):
Figure 25: Select IO-Device from PROFINET Device Catalog
Use the Have GSDML button in Figure 25 to select the GSDML file associated with the previously selected GLM
catalog number. This interface allows you to browse to the folder in which the GSDML file is located, and select
the appropriate file. In Figure 25, expand the tree using the “+” icons and select the IO-Device from the catalog
list.

Once selected, the IO-Device will display as having been installed under the previously selected PNC001.
Figure 26: IO-Device Installed Under PNC001
Also note that the constituent ports of the new IO-Device are also displayed in Figure 26.
The data from the associated slots (shown in Figure 26) is treated as Cyclic I/O Data (RTC) by the PROFINET
Controller.

4.3 PROFINET Cyclic I/O Data
Cyclic I/O Data is that data obtained by the PROFINET Controller from each PROFINET IO-Device in a cyclic
manner. The default transfer frequency of PROFINET cyclic data is 128ms. The GSDML file supports three
possible values: 128ms, 256ms and 512ms.
PME is used to assign base references to the Cyclic I/O Data of each GLM IO-Device. Each slot of the GLM
IO-Device has a Settings form, such as that shown in Figure 27. Double-click on the slot to bring up the
corresponding form.
• If the Slot has Output values (as defined by the Direction column in the following tables), it will require
a base reference in %Q. The lowest order bit in the Output table will correspond to the selected %Q
reference value, which must be a multiple of 8, plus 1.
• If the Slot has Input values (as defined by the Direction column in the following tables), it will require a
base reference in %I. The lowest order bit in the Input table will correspond to the selected %I
reference value, which must be a multiple of 8, plus 1.
In the case of slot 3, where there are matching input and output settings, GE recommends selecting the same
%I and %Q references, as this will avoid confusion when debugging and in project documentation. For
instance, if %I00129 is used for the Port Alarm Inputs, then use %Q00129 for the Port Alarm Outputs. Also note
that 16 contiguous %I and %Q references are required to accommodate all the Port Alarm flags (in both %I
and in %Q). Finally, do not allow any other devices or device slots to overlap the selected %I and %Q settings.
If PME is allowed to automatically assign the next available %I and %Q references, there will likely be no
alignment between the %I and %Q bits assigned to any given GLM IO-Device. This will work fine, but may
cause confusion when debugging.
Figure 27: Assign Starting %I & %Q References for Cyclic I/O Data
The constituent data content is documented in the following sections:
• Slot 1 (of the GLM Switch Device) contains Device Status.
• Slot 2 contains Port Status.
• Slot 3 contains Port Alarm Settings & Status.
• Slot 4 contains MRP Group 1 Status.
• Slot 5 contains MRP Group 2 Status.
• Slot 6 contains Ring Group 1 Status
• Slot 7 contains MRE Group 1 Status
• Slot 8 contains MRE Group 2 Status
The Status Flags are discussed in Chapter 5, Diagnostics.
