Hi!

I have to test ET200pro modules with S7-1200 PLC. I can't use TIA portal when I test, so I need to transfer the IO device settings (IP address, PROFINET device name...) autamically from the CPU.

Is there any sollution? How can I do that?

Thanks,

Hello,

you can use tools like PRONETA or PST, to configure your IO-Devices without TIA Portal.
Does ET200pro have a MMC-Card? So you can save PROFINET Device Name on this card and the rest will be get from IO-Controller via PROFINET.

Greetings

I have MMC, but when I try to write IO device name to it, it shows the following error:

"The name of the IO device cannot be transferred to the micro memory card, since no prommer is available."

My card reader is not Siemens, but I can create transfer/program card with it.

I want to "Assgin IP address" and "Assign device name" automatically,  without PC, so I can't use TIA or other softwares.

hi,

if you insert an empty card into the device, the IP and the NameOfStaition will be written on the card.

you can also use the function "device-change without Change-media". therefore you need to project the topology.

following manual, chapter 4.4, describes it:

SIMATIC PROFINET System Description

hope this helps,

regards,
