For networking via PROFIBUS DP
ā The PROFIBUS addresses of the bus nodes with which the SIMOTION
C communicates, are set.
ā The terminating resistors are switched on (at segment ends).
When networking via the Ethernet, the IP address / subnet mask of the bus
nodes with which the SIMOTION C communicates, are set.
When networking via PROFINET IO, the PROFINET device names of the
bus nodes with which the C240 PN communicates, are set

Note
The readme file for the software version you are using provides information about the hardware
and software requirements.
Please take note of the information on the current CD for "SIMOTION SCOUT"!
For online operation, a connection must be established between the PG/PC and the
SIMOTION C via PROFIBUS DP, Ethernet or PROFINET (C240 PN), see chapter Overview
of wiring diagram (Page 92).
The programming device must be equipped with a PROFIBUS or Ethernet card.
You need an MMC adapter to write to the micro memory card (SIMOTION Kernel update) on
the PG/PC, see chapter Writing, formatting and erasing the Micro Memory Card (Page 140).
