Setup and use

Install GSDML file

  • You can download the GSDML file from the website www.helmholz.de in the download area of the product or use the shown QR code.
  • Install the GSDML file in the TIA Portal menu “Options” / “Manage general station description files (GSD)”.

Setup in the hardware-configuration

  • Following installation, the PROFINET switch can be found in the hardware catalog under “Other field devices -> PROFINET IO -> Network Components -> Helmholz GmbH & Co.
  • KG -> Helmholz PN-Switch”. Add the “PROFINET-Switch, 8-port, IP67” device to the project and connect it with your PROFINET network.
  • By calling up the device properties, you must assign the PROFINET switch a unique PROFINET name in the project and check the IP address for plausibility.
  • Note The real device must later be assigned the same name as in the project.

Setting the port properties
Each port of the PROFINET switch can be individually configured.

“Activate this port for use”| The port can be switched off here. This option is recommended when the port should not be used. Unauthorized trespass into the network is prevented.
---|---
Transmission rate / duplex: “Automatic”| The port synchronizes itself automatically with the communication partner (auto-negotiation).
Transmission rate / duplex: “TP 100 Mbps full duplex”| Fixed specification of the transmission rate. This option is recommended when connecting PROFINET IO devices.
Monitor| Send a diagnosis by Link Down
Enable autonegotiation| Automatic recognition of the transmission speed and the cable type (cross or patch cable)
End of detection of accessible devices| The DCP telegrams for recording accessible devices are not forwarded from this port. Subscribers behind this port are no longer displayed under “Accessible subscribers” in the topology. Users behind this port can no longer be reached by the CPU.
End of topology discovery| LLDP frames for topology discovery are not forwarded on this port.

Topology detection

  • The PROFINET-Switch supports the mechanisms for neighborhood detection (LLDP). With this function it is possible to detect the topology of a PROFINET network, or to specify it for purposes of checking for the correct structuring by the configuration.
  • If the topology was prescribed in the configuration, neighboring devices can also be assigned the PROFINET name in the event of the replacement of a device. This makes the recognition and testing of the network topology and the “device exchange in operation” of connected PROFINET participants possible.

Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP)

  • The PROFINET-Switch supports the optional media redundancy protocol (MRP) as MRP client. MRP stands for “media redundancy protocol”. MRP enables ring wiring, which also makes operation of the PROFINET network possible in the event of the failure of a cable or of a participant.
  • There must be at least one MRP master (e.g. the CPU) in an MRP ring. All other participants of the ring are then MRP clients.
  • In order to assign the PROFINET-Switch to an MRP ring, the “MRP domain” must be set at slot X1 for the option “Media redundancy role” and the role set to “Client”.
  • Important: If ring wiring is established without the MRP roles being configured for all devices involved, this can result in functional disruptions of the PROFINET network!

Assign the PROFINET switch a name

  • When the configuration of the PROFINET switch has been completed in the hardware configurator of the engineering tool, it can be loaded into the PLC.
  • In order that the PROFINET switch can be found by the PROFINET controller, the PROFINET device name must be assigned to the PROFINET switch. To this purpose, use the function “Assign device name”, which you can access in the Online menu with the right mouse button when the PROFINET switch is activated.
  • With the “Update list” button, the network can be browsed for PROFINET participants. The PROFINET device name can be assigned to the device with “Assign name”.
  • The clear identification of the PROFINET switch is ensured here by the MAC address of the device. The MAC address of the device can be found on the device front of the PROFINET switch.
  • If the PROFINET switch has been assigned the correct PROFINET name, it is recognized by the PLC and configured. If configuration has taken place correctly, the PROFINET “BF” LED is off.
  • The Helmholz IPSet tool, which can be downloaded at no charge from the Helmholz website, can also be used to set the PROFINET name. Scan the following QR code to download the IPSet tool:

Further configuration and diagnosis via the web interface

  • Via the web interface, the status of the PROFINET switch can be queried and further functions can be configured.
  • Furthermore, a firmware update can be performed via the web interface.
  • The web interface can be operated as soon as the device has a network configuration. The IP address of the device must be entered as URL.
  • In the following login dialog the username is “admin” and the password is the serial number of the PROFINET switch which can be read at the device side. For the first login the default password must be changed.
  • Further information about the web interface can be taken from the manual.
