Hi,
When we have a new project and we have profinet devices and a link to an upper level system like SCADA or MES, we allways use a PN CPU with an extra Lean card or a CPU with seperated ethernet ports to devide both networks, the realtime ethernet network profinet and the link with office network.
Today I can see that the compnay where I work for uses S602 routers an don't use lean cars. They even call the lean cards old fashion .
Isn't it odd to do it this way with an S602 in every cabinet... I mean, when having devices on profinet and the S602 connected, when you go online with your laptop or MES or SCADA, you go through the S602 on the profinet prot to the CPU... Isn't seperation of the office network and devices network much better ?
Kind regards,
Combo
