Configuring with PROFINET IO
Using PROFINET IO
One option for diagnostics, parameter assignment, and generation of alarm messages of the
connected IE switch is to use PROFINET IO.
Here, you can see how you can use the options of PROFINET IO for a connected IE switch.
In the example, it is assumed that a PROFINET IO Controller V2 is already configured with a
PROFINET IO chain (see also PROFINET IO System Manual).
Note
STEP 7 V5.4 SP5 or a higher version is required.
Based on the example of a SCALANCE X-400, the following section shows a hardware
configuration with a PROFINET IO line.
