Safety

Safety of personnel

When working inside the robot controller it is necessary to be aware of voltage-related risks.

A danger of high voltage is associated with the following parts:

Units inside the controller, for example I/O units can be supplied with power from an

external source.

The mains supply/mains switch.

The power unit.

The power supply unit for the computer system (230 VAC).

The rectifier unit (400-480 VAC and 700 VDC). Capacitors!

The drive unit (700 VDC).

The service outlets (115/230 VAC).

The power supply unit for tools, or special power supply units for the machining

process.

The external voltage connected to the controller remains live even when the robot is

disconnected from the mains.

Additional connections.

Therefore, it is important that all safety regulations are followed when doing mechanical and

electrical installation work.

Safety regulationsBefore beginning mechanical and/or electrical installations, make sure you are familiar with

.Allrightsreserved.


1.1. PROFINET, general

What is PROFINET?

PROFINET is an open standard for Industrial Ethernet. PROFINET satisfies requirements for

automation technology. PROFINET solutions can be implemented for factory and process

automation, for safety applications, and for the entire range of drive technology right up to

clock-synchronized motion control.

PROFINET standardization

The use of open standards, simple operation, and the integration of existing system segments

have driven the definition of PROFINET from the beginning. PROFINET is standardized in

IEC 61158 and IEC 61784. The continual further development of PROFINET offers users along term perspective for the implementation of their automation tasks.

PROFINET vers ions

PROFINET has a modular design and different PROFINET versions are all combinations of

modular elements from the groups transmission technology, communication protocol, and

application profiles.

Here are some examples of PROFINET versions:

PROFINET-IO - Distributed I/O (Remote I/O). Here, the familiar I/O view of

PROFIBUS is retained, in which the user data from the field devices are periodically

transmitted into the process model of the control system.

PROFINET-CBA - Based on the object-oriented modelling of technological modules.

Based on the object model, machines and installations are structured in PROFINET in

the form of technological modules.

PROFIsafe - Defines how safety-oriented devices (emergency shutoff switches, light

grids, overfill protection systems, etc.) can communicate safety control information

over a network securely enough that they can be used in safety-oriented automation

tasks up to EN954's KAT4, AK6, or SIL3 (Safety Integrity Level).

PROFIdrive - The PROFIdrive profile covers application scenarios from simple

frequency converters to highly dynamic servo drivers.

1.2. PROFINET, IRC5

Hardware overview

The hardware of the PROFINET fieldbus consists of a master/slave board, DSQC 678, and

distributed I/O units.

DSQC 678

The DSQC 678 is connected to the PCI bus of the IRC5 robot controller. The I/O units are

attached to the fieldbus network. The slave part of the master/slave unit is normally controlled

by an external master on the same physical PROFINET network. The DSQC 678 can act as

a master and a slave simultaneously.

The DSQC 678 has a built-in switch with four ports. The built-in switch can be powered by

external power supply. This allows the switch to be used even if the IRC5 controller is

powered down, see Operating instructions CP1616for details.

I/O units

The I/O units can have digital and/or analog signals. They are all controlled via the master

part of the DSQC 678.

Main computer

The DSQC 678 requires the main computer DSQC 639.

NOTE!

If the IRC5 controller is powered down, the DSQC 678 built-in switch will not work without

external power supply.

PROFINET version compatibili ty

DSQC 678 supports the PROFINET version PROFINET-IO (see PROFINET versions on

page 11).

2.4. PROFINET-IO Routing


C


.Allrightsreserved.


General

The DSQC 678 has a built in functionality called PROFINET-IO Routing. This functionality

makes it possible for a PLC that is connected to the internal slave of the DSQC 678 to read

and write I/O signals on I/O units that operates as slaves under the DSQC 678 master.

NOTE!

In the IRC5 I/O configuration it is possible to configure digital output signals on signal bits

controlled by the PLC. These output signals will not affect the digital outputs on the I/O unit,

but can still be used to monitor the actual value of the digital outputs on that I/O unit. It is

recommended to name these kind of output signals to reflect the fact that they are controlled

by the PLC, or configure a proper access level on the signals to prevent the RAPID program

to write to these kind of signals. For more information see Technical reference manual -

System parameters.

Example

The figure below shows a setup where the IRC5 Controller is connected to a PLC as a slave

and an I/O unit as a master.

3.1 Introduction

3.1.1. Software overview

Controller software

The IRC5 controller must be installed with software that supports the PROFINET master/

slave option (that is, RobotWare 5.11 or later).

NOTE!

The option for PROFINET must be installed on the IRC5 controller.

PC softwareThe PROFINET communication is configured manually using RobotStudio or FlexPendant.

For more information on:

RobotStudio, refer to Operating manual - RobotStudio

FlexPendant, refer to Operating manual - IRC5 with FlexPendant

An external PROFINET configuration tool, such as Step7 or NMPC from Siemens, is needed

to configure the DSQC 678. Refer to the respective manual for the external PROFINET

configuration tools.

3.2.1. PROFINET master


C


.Allrightsreserved.

3.2 Configuration overview

3.2.1. PROFINET master

Configuration

To configure the PROFINET network in the IRC5 controller, a configuration file needs to be

downloaded to DSQC 678 using an external PROFINET configuration tool.

It is also possible to create a configuration file (an .XDB file) in Step 7, that holds all the

configuration data. This file can be downloaded directly to DSQC 678 from the IRC5

controller at the system startup. For more information see, Step 7 Configuration files on page

29.

The maximum number of I/O units that can be defined in an IRC5 controller with

PROFINET option is described in the section PROFINET, IRC5 on page 12.

The following are counted I/O units:

All PROFINET I/O units connected to the IRC5 PROFINET master.

The IRC5 internal PROFINET slave.

Simulated I/O units and other I/O units connected to other IRC5 fieldbuses.

Predefined I/O bus

When the system is installed with the PROFINET option, a predefined I/O bus Profinet1is

created.

Predefined I/O unit type

When the system is installed with the PROFINET option, a predefined unit type

PN_GENERICis created. This I/O unit type is used for all I/O units except the IRC5 internal

PROFINET slave.

GSDML files

In order to configure a PROFINET network with an external PROFINET configuration tool,

GSDML files need to be imported into the tool. These files contains vital information about

the PROFINET I/O units and they shall be supplied by the vendor/manufacturer of the

specific PROFINET module.

3.2.2. IRC5 internal PROFINET slave


C


.Allrightsreserved.


Configuration

The DSQC 678 unit has an internal slave with 512 digital input signals and 512 digital output

signals. This can, for example, be used:

To connect the IRC5 controller to a PLC.

To connect the IRC5 controller to another IRC5 controller which act as a master.

Predefined I/O unit type

When the system is installed with the PROFINET option, a predefined unit type

PN_INTERNAL_SLAVEis available. This unit type is used to define the internal slave in the

IRC5 controller, which will enable a PLC to connect to the IRC5 controller. There can only

be one I/O unit with this unit type defined in the IRC5 controller.

GSDML files

The GSDML file for DSQC 678 (alias CP1616), that is included in the Step 7 software

package, is needed to operate the DSQC 678 PCI board.

Input and output size

The unit type PN_INTERNAL_SLAVEhas two unit type parameters,Input Sizeand Output

Size.Input Sizeis used to configure the input size of the IRC5 internal PROFINET slave and

Output Sizeconfigures the output size. A connecting PLC needs to have a slot configuration

created in the external PROFINET configuration tool that matches the configuration of the

IRC5 internal PROFINET slave.

The available module sizes of DSQC 678 are dependent on the firmware version of DSQC

678.

If firmware V2.2 is used the supported module sizes are: 4 byte, 16 byte, 20 byte and 64 byte.

If firmware V2.4 is used the supported module sizes are: 4 byte, 8 byte, 16 byte, 20 byte, 32

byte and 64 byte.

The IRC5 internal PROFINET slave uses a maximum of 2 input and 2 output slots to

configure the input and output size of the IRC5 internal PROFINET slave.

Input Sizeand Output Sizecan be set to the values 4, 8, 16, 20, 32, and 64 (other values will

be rounded up to one of these values).

If firmware V2.2 is used, the value 8 results in two slots with 4 bytes each. The value 32 will

result in two slots with 16 bytes each. Other values will result in one slot with 4, 16, 20, or 64bytes.

If firmware V2.4 is used, all values results in one slot with 4, 8,16, 20, 32, or 64 bytes.

-

NOTE!

TheInput Sizesets the size on digital outputs andOutput sizesets the size on digital inputs,

seen from the PLCs point of view.

The following table shows a few examples of how theInput Sizeand Output Sizeunit type

parameters can be used to create different slot configurations of a connecting PLC when

firmware V2.2 is used:

If firmware V2.4 is used the above table will differ in the following cases:

If a configuration mismatch between the connecting PLC and the IRC5 internal PROFINETslave occurs, the event message 71437 is generated on the FlexPendant. This event message

informs the user of the present slot configuration of the IRC5 internal PROFINET slave.

NOTE!

3.2.3. Step 7 Configuration files


C


.Allrightsreserved.

3.2.3. Step 7 Configuration files

Configuration

There are two ways to download the Step 7 configuration to DSQC 678. The most common

way is to download the configuration directly from within Step 7 to DSQC 678. An alternate

way is to create an .xdb configuration file in Step 7 and place this file in the HOME directory

of the IRC5 controller.

By specifying the configuration file name using the bus type parameter Path to Bus

Configuration File (see Path to Bus Configuration File on page 58), the IRC5 controller will

open and read the file at startup and send the configuration to the DSQC 678 board. This

means that the current configuration in DSQC 678 is replaced by the one specified in the

configuration file.

Configuration File Type

The configuration file of type .xdb is created by default every time a Step 7 project is

compiled. The .xdb file is placed in the current project folder under the directory XDBs. By

default, this file is named as pcst_1.xdb.

It is recommended to place the configuration file in the HOME directory of the current

system. If the configuration file is placed in the HOME directory it is only necessary to

specify the name of the file in the Path to Bus Configuration Fileparameter and not the

complete file path. All files in the HOME directory are included in a backup of the system.

3.2.4. Automatic firmware upgrade


C


.Allrightsreserved.

3.2.4. Automatic f irmware upgrade

Overview

It is possible to upgrade the firmware directly from within the IRC5 controller, if the current

version of RobotWare is compatible with more than one firmware versions of DSQC 678.

Configuration

TheAutomatic Firmware Upgradebus type parameter activates the upgrade function. After

activation, the IRC5 controller upgrades the firmware during the next system startup.

-

NOTE!

On some systems the automatic firmware upgrade can take several minutes to complete.

Since this is performed at system startup, it might appear as if the IRC5 controller has stopped

responding.

Firmware version

The firmware version is important in the Step 7 projects. A PLC configured to communicate

with a V2.2 firmware might not accept that the communication partner suddenly appears as

a V2.4 device.

To view the current firmware version available for upgrade in the current RobotWare release,

refer System Info/Hardware devices/Controller/Computer system/PCI bus/Profinet board.

-

NOTE!

The current configuration data in DSQC 678 is not destroyed when performing a firmware

upgrade operation. If the current configuration is not compatible with the new firmware,

DSQC 678 might perform illegal address operations against the IRC5 controller. This might

cause a system failure. It is therefore recommended to clear the DSQC 678 configuration data

before upgrading the firmware.

3.3.2. Configuring IRC5 internal PROFINET slave


C


.Allrightsreserved.

3.3.2. Configuring IRC5 internal PROFINET slave

Description

When the IRC5 controller is connected, for example, to an external PLC, the IRC5 controller

acts as an ordinary slave unit on the PROFINET network. The PLC connects to the IRC5

internal PROFINET slave to exchange data.

Configuration

Communication status

To control the communication status between the master (for example a PLC) and the IRC 5

internal PROFINET slave, the following scheme is used:

1. Configure the master to set a signal during the startup or within the controller loop.

2. Configure the internal PROFINET slave to attach the signal to a RAPID trap function

in the robot controller. The signal then functions as a communication supervision

signal.

If the communication between the master and the internal PROFINET slave is interrupted, allthe inputs of the internal slave will go to thefail safe state (that is, input value will be zero).

This means that the user defined communication supervision signal will also have the value

zero.

Action Note

1. Use the external PROFINET configuration tool to

create a project for the master, for example a PLC,

that contains the configuration of the PROFINET

network.

Described in section Configuring

IRC5 internal PROFINET slave,

example on page 46.

2. In the tool, configure the master to connect to theDSQC 678 internal slave that represents the IRC5

controller.

Described in section ConfiguringIRC5 internal PROFINET slave,

example on page 46.

3. Configure the IRC5 internal PROFINET slave unit in

the IRC5 controller using RobotStudio or FlexPen-

dant.

3.3.3. Conf iguring PROFINET-IO Rout ing

General

The PROFINET-IO Routing functionality is configured entirely using an external

PROFINET configuration tool. It is important to remember that the PROFINET-IO Routing

functionality also connects different projects in the configuration tools with each other. A

configuration change in one of the projects might also change the configuration in the

connected project. In order to execute changes regarding PROFINET-IO Routing, all affected

projects must be downloaded to respective hardware, even if a change in configuration only

was made in one of the connected projects.

Prerequisites

The PROFINET master and the PROFINET internal slave has to be configured, see section

Configuring PROFINET master on page 31, and section Configuring IRC5 internalPROFINET slave on page 32.

Master configuration

Use this procedure to configure the master.

Slave configuration

Use this procedure to configure the slave.

Action

1. Configure the master functionality as described in Configuring PROFINET master on

page 31.

2. Use an external PROFINET configuration tool to create a project and add a Simatic PC

station with a CP1616 device and a network with the devices that shall be slaves to the

PROFINET-IO Routing configuration

Configure PROFINET-IO Routing in the external PROFINET configuration tool.

NOTE!

In the IRC5 I/O configuration it is still possible to configure digital output signals on signal

bits controlled by the PLC. These output signals will not affect the digital outputs on the I/O

unit, but can still be used to monitor the actual value of the digital outputs on that I/O unit. It

is recommended to name these kind of output signals to reflect the fact that they are controlled

by the PLC, or configure a proper access level on the signals to prevent RAPID programs to

write to these kind of signals. For more information, see Technical reference manual - System

parameters.

Action

1. In the PLC configuration select the CP1616 device and add transfer modules to slot 3

unit, but can still be used to monitor the actual value of the digital outputs on that I/O unit. It

is recommended to name these kind of output signals to reflect the fact that they are controlled

by the PLC, or configure a proper access level on the signals to prevent RAPID programs to

write to these kind of signals. For more information, see Technical reference manual - System

parameters.

13. Configure the transfer module so that the PLC will be able to control the output signals

0 and 1 of the output module in slot 3 of the IM151device.

5.1. Scenarios

How can I assign DSQC 678 a device name or IP address us ing Step 7

Sometimes the DSQC 678 hardware will not accept configuration changes when the

PROFINET option software driver is running. If this situation occurs, an X-start of the IRC5

controller is needed. The IRC5 controller will then restart in a mode where the PROFINET

option software driver is not running.

How can I download configuration to DSQC 678 using Step 7

See the preceding scenario,How can I assign DSQC 678 a device name or IP address using

Step 7 on page 65.

The Ethernet swi tch on the DSQC 678 can be operated using an external power supp ly un it. Why is

it not working?

The DSQC 678 board must first be initialized by the PROFINET software option driver

before the Ethernet switch can be used. When this is done, the external power supply unit can

be connected to the DSQC 678 board.

In Step 7 the DSQC 678 board can be " Reset to factory settings" . After that the IRC5 contro ller

cannot detect that the PCI-board is inserted.

When this command is issued from Step 7, the DSQC 678 board will perform additional

operations next time it reboots. This will increase the startup time of the board so much that

the IRC5 controller will fail to detect it. The solution is to restart the IRC5 controller again.

My digital group/analogue signal seem to be data inconsistent.

With the DSQC 678 board data consistency is only guaranteed on a submodule basis.

For example, an I/O unit with the following configuration:

will not have data consistency on a 16 bit digital I/O group signal in the IRC5 controller that

stretches over both slot 1 and 2.

Action

1. Perform an X-start of the IRC5 controller.

2. Download the configuration changes using Step 7.

3. When the configuration changes are downloaded, tap theSelect Systembutton on the

FlexPendant.

4. Select the system that was used before the X-start.

5. Restart the IRC5 controller with the selected system by tapping the Restart Controller

button on the FlexPendant.

Slot 1 8 bits (1 byte)

Slot 2 8 bits (1 byte)

PROFINET-IO Routing is not working

Make sure that the Enable PROFINET IO device operationcheck box is selected in the

configuration that is downloaded to the DSQC 678 used as an IRC5 internal PROFINET

slave. See Configuring IRC5 internal PROFINET slave on page 46.

How do I upgrade/downgrade the firmware on DSQC 678?

For information about upgrading/downgrading the firmware on DSQC 678, refer the

technote: technote_090225_IRC5 PROFINET or refer the sectionAutomatic firmware

upgrade on page 30.

What should I do when the communication between my PLC and the DSQC 678 Slave is slow?

When configuring the communication against the DSQC 678 in your PLC project, ensure that

theI/O Cycleparameter of the DSQC 678 is set correctly. In some versions of Step 7, by

default, this parameter is set to 128 ms. Set this parameter to automaticorfixed update timewith a more useful value.
