Chapter 1. Introduction
This chapter provides an overview of the PAC8000 PROFINET Scanner (PNS) module and
its operation. This chapter also includes a list of the PAC8000 IO modules that can be
included in the PAC8000 PROFINET Scanner IO-Device.
Chapter 2, Installation, gives instructions for PNS installation, panel-mounting, grounding,
installing power supplies, and updating firmware. It also describes powerup and restart, and
LED operation.
Chapter 3, Configuration, describes how to configure the PNS and its IO modules.
Chapter 4, Diagnostics, describes the input and output data that can be used to monitor and
control the PNS. This chapter also explains how the PNS reports errors to the control system.
Chapter 5, PROFINET Specifications, summarizes the features specified for PROFINET
v2.3 Class A IO-Devices that are supported by the PAC8000 PROFINET Scanner module.
1.1 PAC8000 PROFINET Scanner Overview
The PAC8000 PROFINET Scanner (PNS) module interfaces PAC8000 IO modules to a
PROFINET IO network. The PNS scans the input modules in the node (retrieving input data
and providing output data), publishes input data on the PROFINET network at the configured
update rate, and receives data for output module outputs.
The PNS manages PROFINET communication and IO module configuration between an IO-
Controller and IO modules of PNS. If network communications are lost, the PNS manages I/O
states according to the individual module configurations.
Input and Output data are coherent over a full scan of the IO modules. All input data read
from one scan of the IO modules is kept together and then sent over the PROFINET network.
Similarly, outputs delivered on the network are sent to the IO modules as a unit. If new
outputs arrive during the writing of data to the output modules, the PNS continues to write to
the outputs using the previous data until all IO modules have been updated before switching
to the newly delivered data.

1.4 PAC8000 PROFINET Scanner Controls and Indicators
The illustration below shows a PAC8000 PROFINET Scanner.
1.4.1 PAC8000 PROFINET Scanner LEDs
POWER LED
Power Supply LED is ON solid green when power is being supplied on the power supply
connector.
OK LED
The OK LED is solid green ON for normal operation.
MASTER LED
This LED is reserved.
CONNECT LED
When a new PNS module powers up for the first time, it has no network name. The
CONNECT LED slowly blinks to indicate that the module is not ready to use. After a name is
assigned, the CONNECT LED goes OFF.
If the PNS has an assigned network name, the CONNECT LED is OFF after a successful
power up. It turns ON solid when the IO-Controller has established communications with the
PNS module. It turns OFF when communications are terminated.

Index
GFK-2839B PAC8000* IO PROFINET Scanner User’s Manual–September 2017 11
FAULT LED
The FAULT LED remains OFF during normal operation when no PROFINET Diagnosis
conditions are present on the PNS itself or any IO module in the node. When a PROFINET
Diagnosis condition exists, the FAULT LED turns solid red. When all diagnosis conditions
have disappeared, the FAULT LED is OFF.
The FAULT LED blinks red (0.5 seconds ON/0.5 seconds OFF) if any of the MAC addresses
read from non-volatile memory on power-up are invalid. The PNS remains disconnected from
the Ethernet network if any of its MAC addresses are invalid.
Missing or mismatched IO modules in the PNS node do not affect the PNS FAULT LED.
LAN LED
The LAN LED blinks ON when the PNS module is actively processing Ethernet packets
(Tx/Rx). The LAN LED is OFF if there is no activity.
Port LEDs (10/100 Mbps and Link/Activity)
The two Port LEDs indicate link connection and link activity on the Ethernet ports. If a PORT
LED is solid ON, the port is connected but is not currently receiving or transmitting Ethernet
frames. A Port LED blinks when Ethernet frames are actively being transmitted or received.
USB LED
The USB LED is OFF when a USB connection is not established and ON when the link with a
computer is ready. The USB LED flashes when there is traffic such as Winloader activity on
the port.
I/O COMM
This LED turns ON when all IO module commands were successful in the last two seconds. It
blinks when at least one IO module command failed in the last two seconds. It remains OFF
when no IO module command was sent in the last two seconds.
A-B LINK
This LED is reserved.
1.4.2 Power Supplies
The PAC8000 PROFINET Scanner can be connected with either one power supply or dual
redundant power supplies. If two power supplies are installed, they serve as redundant
backups for each other.

1.4.3 External BFP (Bussed Field Power Supply) Monitoring
The status of up to four Bussed Field Power supplies can be monitored through the status
bits of the PNS. For details, see 4.1.2.3, “PNS Power Status Register (PPSR).” The Bussed
Field Power monitoring connector is shown in the picture below. There are two terminal
marked as 24VA and 24VB provided for connecting the 24V terminal (+) of the power supply.
There are four terminals marked as BFP0V are provided to connect the 0V terminal (-). The
power status signals from the power supplies are required to be connected to terminals
marked as PF3, PF4, PF5 and PF6. Please note that this functionality shall only work if the
power status signal is “open-collector” type: low impedance to BFP0V when power is OK and
high impedance if power fails.
The terminal marked as “TERM1” & “TERM2” are reserved for future use.
1.4.4 12V DC HVCC/PNS Power supply monitoring
The status of up to two redundant 12V Power supplies (HVCC and/or PNS power) can be
monitored through the status bits of the PNS. For details, see 4.1.2.3, “PNS Power Status
Register (PPSR).” The HVCC connector is shown in the picture below. The power status
signals from the power supplies are required to be connected to terminals marked as PF1
and PF2. Please note that this functionality shall only work if the power status signal is “open-
collector” type: low impedance to GND when power is OK and high impedance if power fails

8516-BI-PN (Fiber)
Model 8515-BI-PN has two RJ-45 ports, providing 10/100 Mbps copper interfaces. Model
8516-BI-PN has two SC-Duplex ports, providing 100Mbps Multimode fiber interfaces. Each
Ethernet port automatically senses the type of network and adjusts speed and connection
parameters. The PNS requires at least one port be operating at full duplex for a connection to
remain established. The PROFINET protocol may be sent and received over either or both of
the two external ports.
Devices connected to the PNS ports should have Ethernet Autonegotiation enabled unless
the IO-Controller supports configuring the port operation mode. If the IO-Controller configures
the PNS port to a specific setting with autonegotiation disabled, the device connected to the
PNS must be configured for the exact same setting.
Caution
Both ports on the Ethernet Interface must not be connected,
directly or indirectly, to the same device so as to form a circular
network unless Media Redundancy is enabled with one node
actively set up as the Media Redundancy Manager.

1.4.5.1 Media Redundancy Protocol Support
PROFINET Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) supports devices configured in a ring
topology. It is based on the functions of IEC62439. Media Redundancy Protocol is not
routable between different IP subnets.
Each device within a Redundant Media network has at least two physical pathways to two
other devices on the network. To connect to the ring, each device requires an integrated
switch with at least two external ports (ring ports) that support Media Redundancy Protocol.
Devices that are not MRP-capable can be connected to a device like an MRP-capable switch
in the ring, but they cannot be in the ring themselves. The redundant paths only extend to the
devices on the ring that are MRP-capable and enabled.
One of the devices on the ring must be configured as the Media Redundancy Manager
(MRM), and all the other devices must be configured as Media Redundancy Clients (MRCs).
The PNS can be configured to be an MRC. Configuring the PNS as an MRC alters how the
Ethernet ports connect to the network. They attempt to indicate their state to the MRM before
allowing traffic to flow between the ports and close the ring topology through the internal
switch. They also send out notifications to the MRM when a port is lost. Operation of the PNS
is otherwise unchanged.
1.4.6 USB Port
The USB port, below LEDs, on the faceplate behind the cover on PNS, can be used to
connect a computer for firmware updates of the PAC8000 PNS. The USB port accepts a
standard USB cable (USB Micro B Male to USB Type A Male, not included). The port must
be set up before using it, as described in chapter 2.
Note: The USB port is for firmware upgrades only. It is not intended for permanent
connection.
