1.2.3.2 PROFINET IO-Controller Firmware Versions V2 and V3
The PROFINET IO-Controller firmware has been revised and completed
and is available in version V3 since the first quarter of 2017.
Upgrading the PROFINET IO-Controller firmware from V2 to V3 is
recommended. Use the PROFINET IO-Controller firmware V3 for a new
installation when creating or developing your application program for the
first time.
The development of the PROFINET IO-Controller firmware V2 will not be
continued. But this firmware version is still maintained and will be delivered
furthermore.
The PROFINET IO-Controller V3 implements several new features, which
are not available in the PROFNET IO-Controller V2:
•IRT operating mode
•Optimized process data performance
•Automatic name assignment
•Automatic alarm acknowledgement
•MRP Client and Manager for media redundancy
•Requirements PROFINET Specification 2.3: e. g. Advanced Startup,
MultipleInterfaceMode, network load requirements.
The process data handling in PROFINET IO-Controller V3 (process data
image structure and process data timing) was reworked to achieve the
required performance improvement and to support synchronized
applications.
Removed features and incompatibilites:
•PROFINET IO-Controller V3 does neither support swapping of IO data
nor automatic IOPS handling.
•The configuration parameters have been extended to meet the IRT
configuration requirements. The structure of the configuration database
has been changed. Therefore, the PROFINET IO-Controller V3 can not
be configured with a configuration database of the PROFINET IO-
Controller V2 and vice versa.
•The configuration API of PROFINET IO-Controller V2 are not supported
by PROFINET IO-Controller V3. The new configuration API of
PROFINET IO-Controller V3 is to be used.
•The PROFINET IO-Controller V3 does not support process data in little
endian format. This feature was rarely used and has been removed for
better performance.

If you want to change in an existing system from the PROFINET IO-
Controller firmware V2 to V3, note the following guidelines:
1. Customize your application program according to the Migration Guide
PROFINET IO Controller Migrating from version 2 to 3.
If you want to change to V4.2, please check in the Migration Guide
PROFINET IO Controller Migrating from version 2 to 3 which changes
are necessary in the application program in order to use version 4.2.
2. If you upgrade to the PROFINET IO-Controller firmware V3, you can not
reuse the existing SYCON.net project of the PROFINET IO-Controlle
r
firmware V2. Create a new configuration. For the PROFINET IO-
Controller firmware V3 for configuration, you need SYCON.net from
version 1.400, which contains new configuration dialogs (PROFINET IO
IRT-Controller DTM).
3. Update the PROFINET IO controller firmware in your device to
Version 3.

1.2.3.3 PROFINET IO-Device Firmware Versions V3.4 and V3.13
The PROFINET IO Device firmware was revised and completed and is
available in version 3.13 since the fourth quarter 2018.
Use the PROFINET IO Device firmware in version 3.13 for a new
installation, when you create or develop your application program for the
first time.
If you want to change in an existing system from the PROFINET IO Device
firmware version 3.4 to the version 3.13, note the following guidelines:
1. Customize your application program according to the Migration Guide
PROFINET IO Device, Migration from V3.x to V3.13.
If you want to change to V3.13, please check in the Migration Guide
PROFINET IO Device, Migration from V3.x to V3.13 which changes are
necessary in the application program in order to use version 3.13.
2. Adjust the configuration of your PROFINET IO Controller device. Use
the new GSDML file in the configuration software of the PROFINET IO
Controller for this:
GSDML-V2.33-HILSCHER-CIFX RE PNS-xxxxxxxx.xml.
3. Update the PROFINET IO Device firmware in your device to version
3.13.
Note also:
•SYCON.net V1.500.x.x can configure the PROFINET IO Device
firmware V3.4 as well as V3.13
•The development of the PROFINET IO Device firmware V3.4 will not be
continued, but this firmware version will be delivered furthermore.
