The PACSystems* IC695PNS001 RX3i PROFINET Scanner and IC695PNS101 RX3i Advanced
PROFINET Scanner modules connect a remote universal RX3i I/O rack of Series 90-30 or
RX3i modules to a PROFINET I/O Controller. The PROFINET Scanner scans the modules in
its rack, retrieving input data and providing output data, and exchanges that data on the
PROFINET I/O LAN at the configured production rate.
The PNS manages PROFINET communication and module configuration between an I/O
Controller and modules in the remote rack. If network communications are lost, the PNS
manages I/O states according to the individual module configurations.
The PNS001 and PNS101 support 10/100/1000 Mbps Copper, 100/1000 Mbps Multimode Fiber, and 100/1000 Mbps Single-mode Fiber. PROFINET communications on the
network require 100 or 1000 Mbps link speed. Although 10 Mbps cannot be used for
PROFINET communications, 10 Mbps can be used for other types of Ethernet traffic such
as PING.
Features of the RX3i PNS001 PROFINET Scanner include:
▪ Configuration services for all supported Series 90-30 and RX3i I/O Modules using
Proficy* Machine Edition (PME). For a list of currently supported I/O modules, refer
to Supported Modules, Power Supplies and Backplanes.
▪ Support for daisy-chain/line, star, or ring (PROFINET Media Redundancy Protocol
(MRP)) topologies.
▪ Four switched Ethernet ports - two 8-conductor RJ-45 shielded twisted pair
10/100/1000 Mbps copper interfaces and two Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP)
cages for user-supplied SFP devices.
▪ The network can include media interfaces of more than one type.
▪ Support for transfer of I/O Device Name to another PNS module using an SD card.
This eliminates the need to connect a configuration tool, such as Proficy Machine
Edition when replacing a module.
▪ A front panel Ethernet RJ-45 port for field firmware updates.
The RX3i PNS101 Advanced PROFINET Scanner includes all features of the
PNS001 PROFINET Scanner and adds:
▪ Support for Sequence of Events recording with IRIG-B time synchronization of events
accurate to 1ms. The PNS101 buffers up to 4000 events from up to four
IC694MDL660 32 Circuit Discrete Input modules at a maximum rate of 400 events
per second. Unmodulated IRIG B time signals are decoded using either an
IC695HSC304 or IC695HSC308 High Speed Counter Module. The PNS101 may also be
used as a standard PROFINET scanner when Sequence of Events is disabled.

PROFINET Scanner Status and Control Data
The RX3i PROFINET Scanner provides 32 bits of input status data and receives 32 bits of output control data. The
application program in the I/O Controller system can monitor the input status bits for the PNS module. The output
control bits are reserved for future use and have no function at this time.
Output Control Bits:
PNS001 -Axxx hardware: The 32 bits of control output assigned to the PNS module are reserved for future use.
PNS001-Bxxx or later and PNS101-Axxx hardware: The 32-bits of control output assigned to the PNS module allow the
IO Controller to dynamically control aspects of the scanner’s operation. All control bits are active high. Bit 1 is the least
significant bit.
A value of 1 allows the webpage firmware update to continue (and restart the PNS
disrupting IO) while the PNS IO is actively controlled.
Input Status Bits:
The PROFINET Scanner’s 32 bits of input status provide information about the scanner. All status bits are active high.
Bit 1 is the least significant bit.
Indicates the health of the module. A value of 0 indicates the module is powering up
or has failed. A value of 1 indicates the module is functioning properly.
1 = port is connected to another device and is communicating.
0 = port is not connected to another device, or the port has some sort of error
preventing communications.
Indicates whether MRP has been enabled or not. A value of 0 indicates that MRP is
not enabled. A value of 1 indicates that MRP is enabled.
Indicates the MRP role the PNS is operating as when MRP is enabled. A value of 0
indicates that the PNS is currently an MRP Client. A value of 1 indicates that the PNS
is currently an MRP Manager, however the PNS does not currently support MRP
Manager configuration. If MRP is not enabled, then this bit will be set to zero.
PNS101: The internal clock has been sync’d to the IRIG-B clock source. This bit may
take up to 90 seconds to turn on after the IRIG-B clock is available.
PNS001: Set to 0
PNS101: SoE Records are available for upload.
PNS001: Set to 0

LEDs on the PROFINET Scanner Module
Power-Up LED Patterns
At power-up, the LEDs show the patterns described in the following table. The LEDs also blink diagnostic patterns for
certain operating errors and for module identification.
OK LED blinks amber with
special blink code
Fatal initialization or diagnostics failure;
H/W Module Identity Information not
available
STATUS LED blinks amber with
special blink code
Fatal initialization failure.
STATUS and LAN LEDs blink
green in unison (0.5 seconds
ON/ 0.5 seconds OFF)
Internal update in process following a
firmware update. Unit should complete
update and restart automatically.
Normal operation. Power-up completed.
Note: Under certain ambient operating temperatures, the PROFINET Scanner could
momentarily display the over temperature pattern during power up, while it is
calibrating its thermal protection functions. This indication can be ignored. For details,
refer to the section entitled Microprocessor Over-Temperature in PACSystems RX3i
PROFINET Scanner Manual, GFK-2737.
The PNS001 & PNS101
share the same front
panel markings except
for the catalog
number and QR code.

Normal Operation of Individual LEDs
The PNS’s LEDs can operate in tandem to indicate fatal error, module location/identification, microprocessor overtemperature, and update conditions. For details on these blink patterns, refer to PACSystems RX3i PROFINET Scanner
Manual, GFK-2737.
OK LED
The OK LED indicates whether the module is able to perform normal operation.
LAN LED
The LAN LED indicates access to and activity on the PROFINET network. The LAN LED indicates network packets are
being processed by the network interface (not just passing through the embedded switch).
The module’s network interface is active
STATUS LED
The STATUS stays Green during normal operation.
A MAC address read from nonvolatile memory is invalid. Ports with invalid MAC addresses
remain disconnected from the Ethernet network.
CONNECT LED (CONN on -AXXX versions)
The CONN LED indicates the status of PROFINET connections.
At least one PROFINET connection (AR) exists with an I/O Controller.
No device name configured.
No PROFINET connection (AR) exists.
Port LEDs
The PROFINET Scanner has four LEDs that indicate link speed, link connection and link activity corresponding to the
four possible external Ethernet ports.
Port Number LED
Port 3 and 4 only: Error such as incompatible SFP.
