Dear All, I am doing Engineering of S7-400H system in the system Client want to communicate third party device (FESTO Block FB36) on Ethernet. I have tried to convince my Client to take all FESTO block on profibus so I will use Y-link for communication but he don't want communication on Profibus. How I can use all FESTO blockwith my S7-400H. I have consider following Hardware for project. 1. CPU-414-5H 2. CP 443-1 For all OS 3. Ethernet Switch X216 ( 6GK5216-0BA00-2AA3 ) I have attched System Configuartion and FESTO Blcok Technical manual. Please guide me whether it is possible to take all my FESTO on profine Waiting for positive reply. Regards, Yogendra G

Hello YogendraG good news first: In principle, you can use any Profinet I/O device with your S7-400H system. Arguably not so good news: Unless theProfinet I/O device supports "System redundancy", it can only be used asone-sided I/O's (i.e. it belongs to only one of the H CPU's and if that CPU goes down, the Profinet I/O deviceis also lost to the partner CPU). At this moment in time, the only Siemens Profinet I/O device that supports "System redundancy" is the IM153-4 and you'll find our more about it and System redundancy at System Redundancy with IM153-4 PN IO High Feature. While I somewhat doubt that your FestoPN I/O device supports System redundancy, it is certainly worthwhile checking this with Festo. Apart from the S7-400H manual, the other doc to consult on what is possible in the brave new worldof Profinet I/O's with S7-400H's is Configuration Examples for S7-400H with PROFINET SIMATIC S7-400H as of V6.0. I hope this helps |

Hi Aret, Thanks for your help. I have changetopologies according to manual. Please find attched file for change System configuration and Hardware configution. In Hardware configuration I installed GSD of CPX−M−FB34 FESTO block. In properties of Festo Block we can see Media Redundancy tab. Please suggest me possible way to do this way. Waiting for your reply. Regards, Yogendra G

Dear Aret, I could open the zip file. So, maybe you need to download it again. Now I can't get your point about MRP. Even if the FESTO device supports MRP, it still doesn't support system redudnacy and consequenlty will not work with both H CPUs. What applies for ET200S will also apply for the FESTO device. Don't know why Siemens uses e.g. instead of i.e.but unfortunately as explained earlier
Best regards, H-H |
