Chapter 9 Configuring PROFINET
Information About Configuring PROFINET
PROFINET devices are integrated by using a general station description (GSD) file that cont ains the data
for engineering and data exchange between the I/O controller, the I/O supervisor, and the I/O devices,
including the switch. Each PROFINET I/O field device must have an associated GSD file that describes
the properties of the device and contains all this information required for configuration:
Device identification information (device ID, vendor ID and name, product family, number of ports)
Number and types of pluggable modules
The Cisco IE 2000 8-port expander modules are not hot-swappable. Turn off the switch before
connecting or disconnecting expander modules.
Error text for diagnostic information
Communication parameters for I/O devices, including the minimum cycle time, the r eduction ratio,
and the watch dog time
