The PACSystems* RX3i PROFINET Controller (PNC) module, IC695PNC001, connects
a PACSystems RX3i controller to a high-speed PROFINET local area network. It
enables the RX3i controller to communicate with IO-Devices on the LAN. The PNC
provides all the functions, services, and protocols required for certification as a
PROFINET IO Version 2.2 IO Controller, running at both 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps.

The PNC supports 10/100/1000 Mbps Copper, 100/1000 Mbps Multi-mode Fiber, and
100/1000 Mbps Single-mode Fiber. The LAN can include media interfaces of more than
one type. PROFINET communications on the LAN require 100 and 1000 Mbps link
speed. 10 Mbps cannot be used for PROFINET communications. However, 10 Mbps
can be used for other types of Ethernet traffic such as ping and telnet.

Features of the RX3i PNC include:

▪ Full programming and configuration services for the PROFINET Controller,

VersaMax PROFINET Scanner and third-party IO-Devices using Proficy Machine
Edition .

▪ Firmware upgrades using the WinLoader software utility.
▪ Built-in Command Line Interface function that provides direct monitoring and partial

configuration via the micro USB port or using telnet.

Note: The USB port is for system setup and diagnostics only. It is not intended for

permanent connection.

▪ Support for star, ring, and daisy-chain/line network 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.

▪ Internal clock synchronized with the RX3i CPU for time-stamped diagnostics entries.
▪ Restart pushbutton to manually restart the PNC without power cycling the system.
▪ LEDs: OK, LAN, STATUS, CONFIG, ACTIVE, USB, and four Port LEDs.
▪ Compliant with EU RoHS Directive using the following exemptions identified in the

Annex: 7c-I and 7c-III.

Sweep Impact of PNC and PROFINET I/O

The PLC CPU sweep impact for a PROFINET I/O network is a function of the number of PNCs, the number of
PROFINET devices, and the number of each PROFINET device’s I/O modules. The table below shows the
measured sweep impact of the RX3i PROFINET Controller, supported VersaMax PROFINET devices, and
I/O-modules.

Sweep Impact (µs)

To calculate the total expected PLC sweep impact for a PROFINET I/O network, add the individual sweep impact
times for each PROFINET Controller, PROFINET Device, and PROFINET Device I/O module, using the times
provided above.

Example

For a PROFINET I/O network that consists of one PNC and one VersaMax Profinet Scanner that has both an 8
point input and an 8 point output module:

Expected PLC sweep Impact = 50 (PNC) + 40 (PNS) + 23 (8pt. Input) + 18 (8pt. Output)
=131 µs.

Quick Start

Installation and initial startup procedures for the PNC include the following steps. Before installing and operating
the PNC, refer to the PACSystems RX3i PROFINET Controller Manual, GFK-2571 for detailed information.

1. Pre-Installation check

2. Installing the PNC in an RX3i backplane

The PNC must be installed in the main (CPU) rack of the RX3i system, using a Universal Backplane such as
IC695CHS007, CHS012 or CHS016. The PNC supports insertion/removal while power is applied to the system
(hot swap). This includes backplane power and field power supplied to the PNC.

Warning

Inserting or removing a PNC with power applied to the system may cause an electrical arc. This can result in
unexpected and potentially dangerous action by field devices. Arcing is an explosion risk in hazardous
locations. Be sure that the area is non-hazardous or remove system power appropriately before removing or
inserting a PNC.

3. Connecting the PNC to the PROFINET network and to a 10BaseT, 100BaseTX or 1000BaseT IEEE 802.3
network for general Ethernet communications

Caution

Do not connect two or more ports on the PNC to the same device, either directly or indirectly, unless Media
Redundancy is enabled in the PNC’s configuration.

If Media Redundancy will be used, do not close the network ring until after the Media Redundancy
configuration which contains one node as a Media Redundancy Manager (MRM) has been downloaded to the
PNC. If a Media Redundancy Manager is not present, packets can continuously cycle on the network, using
up significant network bandwidth.

Note: Shielded cable is required for 1 Gbps operation.

PROFINET Controller Module 5

GFK-2573A

4. Installing SFP devices

Warning

Optical SFPs use an invisible laser to generate a fiber-optic signal. Always keep the port covered if a cable is
not installed. Do not look into the open port if a cable is not installed.

Warning

If the surrounding air operating temperature of the PNC is greater than 40 C,SFP devices could have
operating temperatures over 70 °C (158 °F). Under these conditions, for your safety, do not use bare hands to
remove an SFP device from the SFP cage. Use protective gloves or a tool (needle-nose pliers) to avoid
handling the hot SFP device directly when removing the SFP device.

5. Installing the USB port driver (optional)

The PNC provides a micro USB port for connection to a computer running Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows

Vista, or Windows 7 operating system. The computer can access the PNC’s Command Line Interface function

using a terminal application such as Hyperterm. The PNC is provided with a driver-install application that can be
used to enable a computer to communicate with a PNC via its USB port. For details on using the Command Line
Interface, refer to the Command Line Interface Manual, GFK-2572.

6. Configuring the PNC and its IO Devices on a PROFINET network

Proficy Machine Edition is the primary tool used to configure an RX3i PROFINET network. In addition, certain
parameters can be set from a computer through the PNC’s Command Line Interface. For details on system
planning and configuration, refer to chapter 3 of the PACSystems RX3i PROFINET Controller Manual, GFK-2571.

Caution

If an RX3i PNC is extracted from a powered RX3i backplane, it loses power immediately which may result in
data loss. Do not remove or insert the device while downloading hardware configuration to the system.

When the PNC is plugged back into a powered backplane, the PNC restores data from the internal
non-volatile memory. If however, the RX3i CPU has configuration data for the PROFINET Controller, it
re-delivers the data to the PNC, superseding parameters previously stored in non-volatile memory.

No interoperation with Beckhoff I/O

The initial version of the PNC is unable to connect to or transfer I/O with Beckhoff
Bk9053/Bk9103 I/O.

RX3i PROFINET controller firmware 1.10 and later has corrected this issue and is
able to connect to and transfer I/O with Beckhoff Bk9053/Bk9103 I/O.

Occasional Loss of Device when
storing large configuration

When storing a hardware configuration containing a large number of PROFINET
devices, sometimes (~5%) the initial version of the PNC will not successfully
complete a connection to one or more of the devices. A Loss of Device fault will
be logged (with no subsequent Add of Device). Storing the same configuration
again will cause the PNC to restart itself and then it typically connects to all
devices. A manual restart, via the pushbutton or the CLI command, will also result
in successful reconnection.

RX3i PROFINET controller firmware 1.10 and later corrects this issue.

Problems Resolved in Release 1.10

PROFINET Controller Module 7

Subject

Description

Unintended LED blink pattern

When an overtemperature condition occurs, the PNC001 will blink this pattern:
PORT 1, PORT 2 , and STATUS LEDs on red for 0.5 seconds (all other LEDs

off), then PORT 3 and PORT 4 LEDs on red for 0.5 seconds (all other LEDs off).
This is not the correct pattern, as documented in the PACSystems RX3i
PROFINET Controller Manual (GFK-2571).

Unexpected Loss of Device faults

Loss of Device faults for currently connected devices may appear in the PLC I/O
Fault table and/or PNC local log when the PNC is reset via its reset pushbutton.

Unintended operation of
PNIO_DEV_COMM function block

The power flow output of the PNIO_DEV_COMM function block provides
validation of the input parameters and confirms that the PNC has locally
processed the configuration of the specified I/O Device. As currently
implemented, the power flow output will not turn ON until after the PNC has
made its first attempt to connect to the specified I/O Device. Therefore, we
recommend the user not rely on power flow output for parameter validation.

GFK-2573A

New Features and Enhancements in Release 1.10

 Support for SNMP and LLDP standards to facilitate network management.

- The PNC’s built-in SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) Server/Agent function allows a third-
party SNMP Client or Network Management Station to access network data.

- The PNC implements the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP). A PROFINET IO-Supervisor or other
network host can use LLDP to discover the PROFINET network topology prior to communicating with any
individual IO-Devices on the network.

 Support for reading GE Intelligent Platforms manufacturer data using Explore PROFINET Networks. The

Explore PROFINET Networks tool now supports the following additional revision information fields:

- Manufacturer’s Catalog Number – For GE Intelligent Platforms devices, this is the catalog number of the
device as built. For 3rd party devices, the field is set to the Order Number.

- Date Code – For GE Intelligent Platforms devices, this field indicates when the device was manufactured.
Not available for 3rd party devices.

- Primary Firmware Revision –For GE Intelligent Platforms devices, indicates the firmware revision and
build ID (for example 22A1). For 3rd party devices, if available, indicates the firmware revision, but not a
build ID.

- Boot Firmware Revision – For GE Intelligent Platforms devices, indicates the firmware revision and

Ring network configuration and
parameter considerations for bumpless
PROFINET IO Device operation with
Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP)

Use of the Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) allows a user’s ring network to

automatically heal itself in the event of a single break of the ring network. If a

user’s application requires the PROFINET IO Devices to operate bumplessly

through ring network recovery (no observed loss and subsequent addition of
PROFINET IO Devices while the ring network recovers), the following network
and application design guidelines must be observed:

1. If only one PNC is in the ring acting as the Media Redundancy Manager
(MRM) and all of the Media Redundancy Clients (MRCs) are VersaMax
PROFINET Scanners, customers can set minimum IO Update Rates as
follows and expect PROFINET IO to operate bumplessly through ring
network recovery:

▪ Using the fixed copper ring ports on the PNC, 1 ms IO Update Rate

minimum

▪ Using SFPs on the PNC, 4 ms IO Update Rate minimum

2. If multiple PNCs are in the ring (one PNC acting as the MRM and other
PNC(s) as MRC(s)) where VersaMax ROFINET Scanners are the only
PROFINET IO Devices, customers can set minimum IO Update Rates as
follows and expect IO to operate bumplessly through ring network
recovery:

▪ 16 ms IO Update Rate minimum, regardless of ports utilized, and

must set MRP Test Packet Interval to 10 ms and MRP Test Packet
Count to 2.

3. If 3rd party MRCs are in use in the ring, customers can set a minimum IO
update rate to the larger of the options that follow and expect IO to
operate bumplessly through ring network recovery:

▪ Minimum IO Update Rate configurable in PME that is at least 1/3 the

time of the worst-case ring recovery stated by 3rd party
manufacturer, regardless of ports utilized. (i.e. if a manufacturer
states their worst-case ring recovery is 90 ms, then the minimum IO
update rate allowed would be 90/3 = 30 ms ~ 32ms.) or

▪ 16 ms IO Update Rate minimum, regardless of ports utilized, and

must set MRP Test Packet Interval to 10 ms and MRP Test Packet
Count to 2.

Operational Notes

PROFINET Controller Module 9

Subject

Description

Storing updated media redundancy
protocol (MRP) configurations to large
operating MRP ring networks with fast
IO update rates configured can result
in PROFINET IO device Loss/Add
faults

When storing Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) configuration updates to an
operating MRP ring network, users may infrequently observe one or more

pairs of “Loss of Device” and subsequent ”Addition of Device” faults regarding

PROFINET IO Device faults on the network. This is expected behavior and is
more likely to occur on ring networks with a large number of PROFINET IO
Devices acting as MRCs with very fast IO Update Rates configured.

Because changing MRP configuration settings requires each MRC to break
and reconnect its own connections to the ring network, IP packets on the
network may be lost as this flurry of connection breaks/ reconnects occur on
the network. Since a PROFINET IO Device is considered lost if it misses
three consecutive IO data transactions, if three consecutive IO data packets
from a particular PROFINET IO Device are lost due to network reconfiguration,
the device will appear to be lost to the PNC and a Loss of IO Device is logged.
When the network stabilizes, the PNC will be able to reestablish connection
with the lost IO Device and an Addition of IO Device fault will be logged.

Data packets arriving on ports blocked
by Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP)
still forwarded over mirrored ports

When a network is configured for MRP operation, MRCs and Media
Redundancy Managers (MRMs) can put one of their ring ports into a
“Blocking” state. MRP uses this blocked port state to break the continuous
ring and allow only MRP management traffic to pass through the blocked
port. All of the non-MRP management traffic is blocked from ingress or egress
of the blocked port. If the port has been set up using the port mirroring
“monport” command, to monitor traffic on the blocked port, all of the traffic that
arrives at the blocked port is mirrored to the configured monitor port regardless
of whether or not the traffic is MRP management traffic. This makes it appear
that the traffic is being sent or received on the blocked port even though it is
not.

Network monitoring devices should be
directly connected to mirrored PNC
ports

When using the port mirroring “monport” command to monitor Ethernet traffic,

you should directly connect your PC/Laptop to the port on the PNC that is
monitoring the traffic. If there is an intervening switch in the mirrored path, the

mirrored traffic will corrupt the intervening switch’s routing table. A corrupted

routing table can cause dropped Ethernet packets, resulting in the loss of
PROFINET IO and/or other Ethernet communication.
