11Example — PROFINET Communication with OPC
11.2Configuring the PC Station
Overview
After starting the PC station, installing the software, and installing the hardware, the PC module of the PC station is in PG operation.
By adding the communication module in the Station Configuration Editor, the module is automatically switched to the “configured mode”.
Handling the Project Engineering Data
Depending on the case, two situations must be distinguished (see Section 2.2):
SProject engineering before initial configuration - XDB file available
SInitial configuration not dependent on project engineering
In this example, we assume that project engineering data is available in the form of an XDB file. The initial configuration is therefore imported in the Station Configuration Editor.
To allow the information from the project engineering to be transferred from the engineering system to the PC station, the local configuration must match the configuration data entered in the project engineering.
