Instructions 1

Important User Information Profinet Card
3 Important User Information
It is the installer's responsibility to follow all instructions in this manual and to follow correct
electrical practice.
3.1 Product Design
The Profinet Card allows the soft starter to connect to an Ethernet network and be
controlled or monitored using an Ethernet communication model.
Familiarity with Ethernet protocols and networks is required to operate the device
successfully. For difficulties using this device with third party products, including PLCs,
scanners and commissioning tools, contact the relevant supplier.
4 Installation
4.1 Installing the Expansion Card
1. Push a small flat-bladed screwdriver into the slot in the centre of the expansion port
cover, and ease the cover away from the starter.
2. Line up the card with the expansion port. Gently push the card along the guide rails until
it clicks into the starter.

4.2 Network Connection
Ethernet Ports
The device has two Ethernet ports. If only one connection is required, either port can be
used.
Cables
Use Category 5, 5e, 6 or 6e cable to connect to the device.
EMC Precautions
To minimise electromagnetic interference, Ethernet cables should be separated from motor
and mains cables by 200 mm.
If the Ethernet cable must cross motor or mains cables, the crossing should be at an angle
of 90°.
4.3 Network Establishment
The controller must establish communications directly with each device before the device
can participate in the network.
4.4 Addressing
Each device in a network is addressed using a MAC address and a device name. The MAC
address is fixed within the device and is printed on a label on the front of the device.

Profinet Card Device Configuration
5 Device Configuration
Use the Ethernet Device Configuration Tool to configure the device. The Ethernet Device
Configuration Tool is available from your local supplier.
To identify the device using the Ethernet Device Configuration Tool:
1. Start the Ethernet Device Configuration Tool.
2. Click on Search Devices. The software will search for connected devices.
3. To configure a device name, click Configure then select Device Name.
NOTE
The Error LED is on if the device is not configured. If the device is configured but is
not passing I/O data, the Error LED will flash. The Error LED will be active during
the configuration process.
NOTE
If your PC has a firewall enabled, you must add the tool to the list of authorised
programs.
5.2 Enabling Network Control
The soft starter will only accept commands from the Profinet Card if parameter 1A
Command Source is set to 'Network'.
NOTE
If the reset input is active, the starter will not operate. If a reset switch is not
required, use parameter 7I to set the reset input to normally open or fit a link across
terminals 10, 11 on the soft starter.
6 Master Configuration
Import the latest GSDML file into your Master configuration tool. This file is available from
your supplier.
If your Master uses on-screen icons, two graphic bitmap files are available from the
website. SSPM_N.bmp indicates normal mode. SSPM_D.bmp indicates diagnostic mode.
Instructions 3

Operation Profinet Card
7 Operation
The device has been designed for use in a system complying with the Profinet standard.
For successful operation, the controller must also support all functions and interfaces
described in this document.
7.1 Device Classification
The Profinet Card is a Profinet IO-Device and must be managed by an IO-Controller over
Ethernet.
7.2 Ensuring Safe and Successful Control
Data written to the device will remain in its registers until the data is overwritten or the
device is reinitialised.
If the soft starter may be controlled via Command Override (parameter 7A) or may be
disabled via the reset input (terminals 10, 11) fieldbus commands should be cleared from
the registers. If a command is not cleared, it will be re-sent to the starter once fieldbus
control resumes.

Profinet Card Packet Structures
8.3 Parameter Management
The Profinet Card can read parameter values from and write parameter values to the soft
starter. The card handles one parameter at a time.
The device references parameters according to their position in the starter's parameter list.
•Parameter number 1 corresponds to parameter 1A Command Source.
•The basic model has 152 parameters. Parameter number 152 corresponds to
parameter 36J RTD/PT100 B.
•The advanced model has 225 parameters. Parameter number 225 corresponds to
parameter 36J RTD/PT100 B.
CAUTION
Changing the values of the Advanced parameters (parameter group 20) may
cause unpredictable behaviour in the soft starter. Consult your local supplier
before adjusting the Advanced parameters.
Output
Use output bytes 2-5 to read or write a parameter to the soft starter.

Profinet Card Network Design
9 Network Design
The device supports star, line and ring topologies.
9.1 Star Topology
In a star network, all controllers and devices connect to a central network switch.
14697.A
9.2 Line Topology
In a line network, the controller connects directly to one port of the first card. The second
Ethernet port connects to another card, which in turn connects to another device until all
devices are connected.
14695.A
NOTE
The device has an integrated switch to allow data to pass through in line topology.
The device must be receiving control power from the soft starter for the switch to
operate.
NOTE
If the connection between two devices is interrupted, the controller cannot
communicate with devices after the interruption point.
NOTE
Each connection adds a delay to communication with the next device.
The maximum number of devices in a line network is 32. Exceeding this number
may reduce the reliability of the network.
Instructions 13

Network Design Profinet Card
9.3 Ring Topology
In a ring topology network, the controller connects to the first card, via a network switch.
The second Ethernet port of the card connects to another device, which in turn connects to
another device until all devices are connected. The final device connects back to the
switch.
The device supports beacon based ring node configuration.
14696.A
NOTE
The network switch must support loss of line detection.
9.4 Combined Topologies
A single network can include both star and line components.
