CREATE A PRACTICE FOR USING PROFINET COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES

Abstract

This article presents the creation of industrial networks between multiple
PLCs nd also their mutual communication via PROFINET. Currently, industrial
networks with PROFINET communication are used in industrial practice very
often and therefore is necessary to teach students in Control and Automation
how to building, designing, and programming experimental models using
profinet communication network. In this paper, the profinet communication
network is built from PLC S7-1200 (PLC1) - PLC S7-1200 (PLC2) - inverter G120C -
Asynchronous motor, controlled and monitored via HMI screen.
