Identification \ and Maintenance Functions

PROFINET standard defines “Identification & Maintenance” data (I&M) to have access to device specific information like serial number, order number etc. This I&M data is described as I&M0 and I&M1 – I&M5 data. I&M0 and I&M1 – I&M4 data should be provided by all types of IO devices; I&M5 is optional.

Access to this data should be provided via PROFINET acyclic read/write services at specific slot/sub-slot indexes.

The following shows how to access I&M data in AC500:

  read / write accessible at slot / sublot supported by
I&M0 read only any configured slot / sub-slot CI50x + CM589-PNIO + CM589-PNIO-4
I&M1-4 read

any configured slot / sub-slot

responds with data stored at DAP-sub-module Interface

serves as representative for all configured slots / sub-slots

CM589-PNIO + CM589-PNIO-4
I&M1-4 write

DAP- sub-module Interface

representative for all configured slots / sub-slots

CM589-PNIO + CM589-PNIO-4
I&M5 not supported - -

I&M data provides the following details:

I&M0

VendorID (WORD)

OrderID (STRING:20)

SerialNr (STRING:16)

HW-Revision (WORD)

SW-Revision (1 CHAR plus 3 x BYTE, e. g. V.1.2.3)

RevisionCounter (WORD)

ProfileID (WORD)

IM_ProfileSpecType (WORD)

IM_Version (2 x BYTE)

IM_supported (WORD)

I&M1

Tag function (STRING:32)

Tag location (STRING:22)

I&M2 Installation date (STRING:16)
I&M3 Descriptor (STRING:54)
I&M4 Signature (STRING:54)

AC500 PROFINET function block Library provides function block PNIO_IM0 to read I&M 0 data for a certain IO device.

See : PNIO_IM0

Note

The IO devices CI501-PNIO and CI502-PNIO support I&M0 function.

The structure and the meaning of these information is specified in the PNO “Profile Guidelines Part 1: Identification & Maintenance Functions” (version 1.1.1, order number 3.502).
