Hello,

Here are some basic questions:

Is there any FAQ for various Profinet combinations of Master and Slave, like this one for Profibus?

If I understand it well, Master in Profinet terminology is actually called Profinet controller, and Slave is called I-Device? Is there any FAQ about this whole story?

How do I put Profinet I-Device to my Profinet network ih HW config, since IM151-8 does not exist in my catalog?

For Peer-to-Peer connection, I can use GET/PUT, USEND/URCV and something else? I cannot determine from definitions which of these is better, and why?

Best regards

Hello Banconi;

This is a similar compilation as you found for Profibus-DP, but for Profinet:

PROFINET - An Overview of the Most Important Documents and Links

For your question on peer-to-peer communication functions, look at this following FAQ, and concentrate on the S7 Communication information:

With which devices can the S7-1200 communicate over the integrated PROFINET interface and which protocols does the S7-1200 support?

Hope this helps,
