5.2 Creating the PROFINET configuration file
General
The PROFINET configuration file can be created with the help of an external
PROFINET configuration tool. This section describes the basic steps that needs
to be performed independent of which tool is used.
Examples
As an example, PROFINET Configurator Express is used to create a configuration
file. The procedure is described in the Appendices. See
Configurator Express on page 79
Basic steps
This procedure describes the general steps that needs to be performed when
creating a controller network configuration file, independent of which tool is used.

The next step is to download the ippnio.xml file to the HOME directory of the
currently used RobotWare system, see

Action
Use the PROFINET configuration tool to:
• Specify the IP address range that the PROFINET internal controller operates
within.
• Set the same IP address for the PROFINET industrial network as specified
in the system parameter IP Address in the IRC5 controller.
• Import the GSDML files for all types of I/O devices in the network.
• Add the I/O devices into the network structure.
• Set the properties of the I/O devices to reflect the device's properties on the
PROFINET network.
Build the project and create the PROFINET configuration file, ippnio.xml.
