The following parameters are available:

Parameter Default Value Meaning Parameter
Identification
Station name Device-specific Up to 240 characters This is a system wide unique name for addressing the device. Must be a valid hostname. Slave parameters -> Identification -> Station name
Parameter
Send clock (ms) Device-specific

Parameter Send clock determines the SendCycle.

SendCycle = Send clock x Reducation ratio <= 512ms x

Slave parameters -> Reduction ratio
Reduction ratio Device-specific 1…16384

The Reduction ratio determines the factor for calculating the cycle time.

Cycle time = Send clock x Reducation ratio

Slave parameters -> Reduction ratio
Phase 1 1…Reduction ratio Defines the part of the SendCycle at which an IO frame is sent. Phase
Watchdog factor 3 1…65535 The Watchdog time is calculated as Watchdog time = SendCycle * Watchdog factor. The transfer of a IO telegram is always checked of the consumer side. Within this time the next IO telegram must be received by a consumer. Otherwise it is checked if the Datahold has been expired too. Watchdog factor
Datahold factor 3 1…65535 The Datahold time is calculated as Datahold time = SendCycle * Datahold factor. If the Watchdog time has been expired, the Datahold time will checked. If the Datahold time also has been expired, the substitution values of the IOs will be used. For RT_Class_1 communication Datahold time and the Watchdog time are usually configured with the same value. Datahold factor
Frame send offset 0xFFFFFFFF (means: as soon as possible) 1…2^32 - 1 Only available for RT Class 3 Data-RTC-PDU Frame send offset
RT Class
RT Class RT Class 1 Data-RTC-PDU RT Class 1 Data-RTC-PDU Defines the real time class of cyclic data. Currently only RT Class 1 Data-RTC-PDU is supported. Slave parameters -> RT Class
RT Class 2 Data-RTC-PDU
RT Class 3 Data-RTC-PDU
RT Class UDP-RTC-PDU
VLAN ID 0

0..4095 or

0..32767

In case of VLAN usage the parameter VLAN ID represents the ID of the virtual network.

For VLAN type 802.1Q the range is 0..4095 while VLAN type ISL accepts values from 0 to 32767.

The supported type depends on the used device.

Slave parameters -> VLAN ID
IP Parameter
IP-Address 192.168.0.8 Valid IP address IP address of the PROFINET IO Controller station. Slave parameters -> Identification -> IP address
Subnetmask 255.255.255.0 Valid subnet mask Network mask of the PROFINET IO Controller station. Slave parameters -> Identification -> Subnet mask
Default gateway 0.0.0.0 Valid gateway address Default gateway address of the PROFINET IO Controller station. Slave parameters -> Identification -> Default gateway address
