1. Overview of functions

A network interface unit is a device that transmits and receives I/O information via a communication protocol between a controller and a host control device. We provide a lineup of products that support fieldbus (DeviceNet, PROFIBUS, etc.) or industrial Ethernet (EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, etc.). In any of these networks, the robot controller (slave device) operates in accordance with commands via I/O control from a host (master device).
While acting as distributed I/O for the host control device, the network interface unit simultaneously shares I/O information with the controller. The I/O update cycle time between the controller and the network interface unit is 5 ms. The I/O update cycle time between the network interface unit and the host control device will vary depending on the structure of the applicable network.

Command input
I/O consists of a general-purpose input/output area, and a dedicated input/output area that has specific significance such command input and status output that is optimized for control of robot controllers. Using these, the robot controller can be controlled from the host control device. The following methods can be used for control via I/O. Combining these methods makes it possible to control the robot.

I/O's dedicated input/output.
Example) Dedicated input: cancel emergency stop, servo on, reset, start program execution, etc.
Dedicated output: CPU_OK, return-to-origin complete, etc.
2. Using remote commands to programlessly control the robot controller directly with advanced
instructions and status queries.
Example) < Transmission >
SIW0 = 0x1031 (absolute reset command for robot no.1)
SIW2 = 0x0015 (axis designation: axis 1 through axis 4)
< Reception >
SOW = 0x0100 (executing command)
SOW = 0x0200 (normal end)
3. Using remote I/O's general-purpose input/output to exchange desired information with an
external peripheral device, and load it into a robot program or sequence program for execution.
Example) WAIT SI(20)=1, 1000 ; Wait until SI(20) turns on; stop command if it does not turn on after 1 second
OUT SO2(), 200 ; SO(27--20) turns on, and turns off after 200 ms

2. Controller status transitions

Power on, controller starts
StartupStartup
Here we explain the status transitions of a robot controller equipped with a network interface unit. A controller equipped with a network interface unit will initially start up in the emergency stop state. In order for robot operation to be possible, communication must be established with the host control device, and a sign that cancels the emergency stop state must be input. If communication with the host control device is interrupted for any reason, the controller will again transition to the emergency stop state regardless of the I/O status. In order to resume operation, I/O processing is

6. Connection

Here we provide an overview of the steps for connecting the robot controller to the network. Network structure and cable specifications should be designed according to the materials provided by the network interest group (PI: PROFIBUS & PROFINET International).

6.1 Network structure

PROFINET is an industrial multi-vendor network system based on Ethernet technology that is open and promoted by PI (PROFIBUS & PROFINET International). Since it uses standard Ethernet as its lower-level protocol, the network can coexist with general-purpose Ethernet equipment.
A PROFINET network is typically constructed in a star topology via a switch, but since the robot controller's PROFINET unit contains a two-port switch, a cable-saving linear network can also be constructed by daisy­chained connection.
CAUTION
The two Ethernet ports of a PROFINET unit are for the purpose of allowing a versatile network topology within a single subnet without using a switch. It is not possible for the two ports to be connected to different subnets.
■Example of a cable-saving linear network using daisy-chaining
Host unit
(PROFINET I/O controller)
YRCX
CAUTION
Network equipment such as switches can be used if it satisfies the requirements of the PROFINET network. However if the equipment is to be used in an environment where noise is a concern, such as a factory, equipment that meets EMC industrial standards should be selected.

CAUTION
The general-purpose Ethernet ports built into the controller unit do not support the PROFINET communication protocol. Also, communication settings are made separately from the PROFINET unit. For details on settings for the general-purpose Ethernet ports, refer to the user's manual of the controller unit.

Connection
When cabling via option boards as shown above, do not set the option board setting parameter to "disable." As setting the option board setting parameter to "disable" causes the option board's internal switch to stop functioning, the general-purpose Ethernet communication pathway to the controller will be shut off.

6.2 Cabling

WARNING
SHUT OFF THE POWER SUPPLY INPUT TO THE ROBOT CONTROLLER BEFORE PERFORMING THIS WORK.
Insert the LAN cable's modular plug into the controller's modular jack until you hear it click into place.
■Cable specifications
Use LAN cables that meet the following specifications.
Category 5e (CAT 5e) or higher

* OO indicates the number of metal housings (A0: 1 / B0: 10 / E0: 50).
* The cable length can be specified in 1-meter units from a minimum of 20 m to a maximum of 1,000 m.

6.3 Noise countermeasures

Although the robot controller unit complies with EMC standards and has a certain amount of resistance to external noise, there may be cases in which communication is affected by noise depending on the environment in which the equipment and cable are located. If communication is affected by noise, a communication error occurs, possibly causing the robot to enter an emergency stop state, or causing throughput to decline. If there is a source of noise, and this noise is suspected of affecting communication, please take the following countermeasures.
1. Equipment and cable selection
As the equipment to be connected to the network, select units that conform to EMC directives. Be sure to use cable of the prescribed specifications.
2. Equipment and cable placement and grounding
If the noise source is nearby, create an appropriate distance between the noise source and the network environment including the cable. For the robot controller unit and equipment connected to it, be sure to attach an appropriate ground as directed by the manual of each unit.
3. Adding anti-noise components
Apply the following measures to the robot controller.
• Install a ferrite core on both ends of the cable immediately adjacent to the connector of the device.
• Install a ferrite core or noise filter on the power supply input of the controller.

7. GSD files

GSD (General Station Description) is a type of network setting file. It contains settings for a device that supports PROFIBUS or PROFINET.
The network settings file contains information necessary for connecting to a host device, such as I/O size and communication settings, in a prescribed format. When constructing a network, the settings information of all connected network devices must be loaded into the host control device. The appropriate engineering or configuration tool is used to make settings for and write to the host control device, and during this process it will be necessary to load each device's network settings file into the tool.
The steps for loading the file will depend on the host device used, and on the tool that supports it. Refer to the manual for the device and tool.

8. Settings

Here we explain the parameters that must be set and the settings files that are required in order to begin communication between the host control device and the robot controller.

8.1 Communication parameter settings

The robot controller does not have parameters related to PROFINET unit communication. Communication with the host control device (IO controller) requires network parameter settings such as IP address, subnet mask, and station name. All of these are set by the corresponding engineering tool (IO Supervisor). Tasks such as viewing the network parameters and performing "Reset to factory setting" are also all performed from the engineering tool. For details on how to use the engineering tool, refer to the manual of the device and software you're using.
■Network settings flow
If there is no topology setting for the host control device (IO controller), such as when the facility is being started up:
With the robot controller and the engineering tool in a state where they can communicate with each other, specify the
IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and station name individually. Also make the same settings for the host control device.
If you are replacing only one device within the network, such as when replacing a controller, and topology settings have been made for the host control device (IO controller):
The network parameters that had been specified for the device before replacement can be automatically assigned by
PROFINET to the replacement device based on the address information of the peripheral device. This means that in this case, there is no need to make communication settings.
CAUTION
Data of the robot controller other than network parameters is not passed on automatically. Be sure to back up from the controller before replacing it, download this data to the controller following replacement, and then connect the controller to the network.

10. Disabling an option unit

If the controller is equipped with a field network option unit, it normally communicates with the host control device and controls the robot in accordance with the communicated content, so a ladder program is required for the host device.
When performing teaching or trial operation of the robot by itself in a state in which the host device's ladder program has not been provided, the robot can be operated without communicating with the host device by setting the option board to "disabled".
10
CAUTION
When shipped from the factory, all functions of the option unit are set to "enabled." In the "enabled" state, the robot first becomes operable when an emergency stop or stop signal is input from the host control device. For details on I/O functionality, refer to the separate "Remote I/O Manual".

11.1 Reconsider the startup steps

The following steps must be taken when starting up the network system. If communication cannot be established after the cabling and settings have been completed, it is possible that one of the steps was not performed correctly.
■Procedure
• Connections Determine the network configuration Connect cables Noise countermeasures (only if necessary)
• Settings Settings for the host control device (PROFINET IO controller) Use GSD file to register device information Network parameter settings for the robot controller (station name, IP address, etc.) After settings, put the system in the RUN state
Settings on the robot controller (PROFINET IO device) No items to set
Communication is established, and cyclic communication begins
If communication is not established, check the following points.
• Connections: Do the cables meet the network specifications, and are they securely connected?
• Parameter settings: Are parameters such as station name and IP address specified from the host control device (IO controller)? Is the topology specified?
• GSD file: Is the correct GSD file registered on the host control device (IO controller)?
