Hello, I’m looking for typical program examples to use a AXC-F 2152 as a Profinet master and to read out several data (Bytes or Dwords) from profinet devices in my program and to use it. Where can I find program examples for PLCnext Engineer 2021.0.1? The help doesnt have a section for it. Thanks! BR Andreas Ehrlich
Hello Andreas, we don’t have the PLCnext Engineer example for PN Conttroller and PN-Device, please see the following similar request, I think it should help you: https://www.plcnext-community.net/en/discussions-2-offcanvas/i-need-some-help-to-communicate-plc-in-profinet.html Best Regards Eduard
Hello, thanks for your reply. This request i have seen before, but it does not work before, with automatically find profinet-I/O’s, but with manually added profinet I/Os and the IN-/OUT-Port declaration it works yet. There is an addtional question to profinet. To realize a S2 redundant profinet, how can I set up such a profinet network? Thanks! BR Andreas Ehrlich
Good Morning Andreas, to your first question might the following article in our PLCnext Info Center be helpful: Configuring PN Devices You find the Infocenter in the Knowledge Base Menu with tons of other how tos and tutorial videos. Now coming to the a bit more special question of the S2 redundancy. Since PLCnext Engineer takes care of most of it, the setup is quite simple. You only have to activate the redundancy function and configure the IP of the Bakcup controller. As the application and configuration has to be the same, does PLCnext Engineer download to both PLCs. Please find more details for the configuration in the PLCnext Engineer help. To make it even more convenient, do we offer a library called “Applicative System Redundancy” which handles the whole (and sometimes) application sychnronisation and redundancy switching for you. The library is for free and released, but as a bit consulting is necessary only available via our sales representatives. If you are interested, please come back to your contact. Hope that helps, Frank
