3 IMPORTANT HINTS
3.1 GROUNDING AND EQUIPOTENTIAL BONDING
Proper grounding and equipotential bonding are very important to protect against electromagnetic
interferences in PROFINET networks. In order to reduce potential impact, grounding of the
PROFINET cable screen should be done at both ends of every cable (i.e. at each device).
Equipotential bonding ensures that the ground potential is identical throughout the entire
PROFINET network and is essential to avoid equipotential bonding currents, which could otherwise
flow through the PROFINET cable screen. Please refer for further details to the
“PROFINET_Assembling_8072_V28_Sep19.pdf” provided by the PROFINET user organization PI
(https://www.profibus.com/download/profinet-installation-guidelines/).
For proper grounding please use the earth screw (M4) on the upper side of the valve island. For
easy reference see item 4 in chapter 4.

5.2 MAPPING RULES FOR 12
<
VALVE STATIONS
£
24
§ If 12 < valve stations ≤ 24, special rules are required since only 1 solenoid number is
allocated to valve station with single solenoid:
• Sequence all solenoids following the rules below by starting from 1st station which is the
station closest to control module:
o If 1st station is with double solenoids, sequence solenoid A as Sol.01, solenoid B as
Sol.02, following 2nd station solenoid A as Sol.03, solenoid B as Sol.04……
o If 1st station is with single solenoid, sequence solenoid A as Sol.01, following 2nd
station solenoid A as Sol.02, solenoid B as Sol.03……
o If a station is originally configured as blank, always 2 solenoid numbers are allocated.
o The rest of stations should also adhere to the sequence rules above.

6 COMMISSIONING
Notes:
1. The method of PROFINET module installation strongly depends on the configuration software. Please refer to the
configuration software manual, all examples in this document are made with Siemens PLC S7-1512C-1 PN and TIA
Portal V15.1.
6.1 GSDML FILE INSTALLATION
A device description file is needed for configuration of valve island. The GSDML file is an XML
based file and could be used for all variants VR10 / VR15:
§ “GSDML-Vxx-NORGREN-VR1X-JJJJMMDD.xml”
Note: “JJJJMMDD” (JJJJ-year, MM-month, DD-day) is date of release, “Vxx” is version number of the file.
The GSDML file must be installed inside the engineering tool of the PROFINET controller:
§ Click “Options” -> “Manage general station description files (GSD)”.
§ Select source path where GSDML file is stored, tick the GSDML file and install.
The GSDML file is provided by NORGREN and can be downloaded from the following web link:
§ https://www.norgren.com/uk/en/technical-support/software
