More on PROFINET Installation Guidelines:
Prior to starting a PROFINET project, PI offers PROFINET installation guidelines and planning tools -free of charge. These guidelines were designed by engineers for engineers. They help users with the design, installation, and commissioning of a PROFINET system. They contain tips and specifics that are often overlooked. The webinar will be covering topics from the design guideline:
PROFINET Design Guidelines
The design guideline focuses on the design and layout of a network and planning of the network load. This includes how to organize the network topology depending on types of devices and also on the functions of them (for example RT or IRT motion traffic, wireless, power over Ethernet, etc.). Also, it discusses both real-time and non real-time (TCP/IP) network load and how to measure and plan it.
