How to Install PROFINET Operating Instruction 3.1.5 Topology The PROFINET module features a built-in Ethernet-switch, thus having two Ethernet RJ-45 connectors. This enables the possibility for connecting several PROFINET options in a line topology as an alternative to the typical star-topology. The two ports are equal, in the sense that they are transparent for the option.
Page 12
How to Install PROFINET Operating Instruction NOTE In a line topology all drives must be powered, either by mains or by their 24V DC option cards, for the built-in switch to work. Please observe that mounting drive of different power-sizes in a line topology may result in unwanted power-off behavior, while using controlword timeout (O-02 Control Word Source to O-06 Reset Control Word Timeout.
How to Install PROFINET Operating Instruction 3.1.6 Recommended Design Rules While designing Ethernet networks special attention and caution must be taken regarding active network components. While designing a network for line topology it is important to notice that a small delay is added with each switch in the line. It is not recommended to connect more than 32 drive in a line.
How to Install PROFINET Operating Instruction 3.1.7 EMC Precautions The following EMC precautions are recommended in order to achieve interference-free operation of the Ethernet network. Additional EMC information is available in the AF-600 FP/AF-650 GP series Design Guide. NOTE Relevant national and local regulations, for example regarding protective earth connection, must be observed. The Ethernet communication cable must be kept away from motor and brake resistor cables to avoid coupling of high frequency noise from one cable to the other.
