6 1 Task 2.1 Description of functionality 1 Task Overview of the automation task For the system acceptance test you usually need a document which lists existing status of the PROFINET IO network at a fixed time and prints them in a suitable format. These are: project data module status of all nodes port status of all PROFINET IO devices connections to the respective partner line data with attenuation values statistic data on all ports IP addresses of the respective nodes This information can be extracted and edited from the STEP 7 configuration files. 2 Solution 2.1 Description of functionality Overview With the help of the tool you can create a document from the exported data of your STEP 7 project that displays all relevant data regarding the topology of your PROFINET IO network in a clear form. Fields of application/customer benefits The tool on hand offers you the following advantages: Typical fields of application creation of a complete documentation component of your PROFINET IO network it is based on the consistent configuration file of the plant This makes a new status comparison of the plant possible at any time The tool can also used as Java application on non-windows operating systems. A typical field of application of this tool is e.g. the final documentation for the system acceptance test. 6 Version 1.0, Entry ID:

Figure 3-1 PN IO System Network PN IO Topology Report HTML File STEP 7 Topology Editor Export Explanation Table 3-1 Steps Comment 1. Information on the PROFINET IO system network configured in STEP 7, is exported into a CSV file via the topology editor from HW Config. 2. The topology reporter reads the CSV file and formats a structured and clear documentation in HTML format from it. 3. The original HTML file can be displayed and printed by any browser. 10 Version 1.0, Entry ID:

11 4 Installing the Application Software 5.1 Overview 4 Installing the Application Software Software installation Table 4-1 No installation routines are required for the tool topology reporter. Please note the requirements that have been described in chapter 2.3. No. Action Comment 1 Extract the zipped _Topology- Reporter_CODE_v10.zip archive into a folder of your choice 2 Now you can instantly start the topology reporter by double clicking on the trep.jar file (alternatively Start.bat) in the.\ v1.0.0 directory. e.g. D:\Temp 5 Operation of the Tool 5.1 Overview In order to receive a formatted view of your PROFINET IO system, you have to perform two steps export of the topology raw data from STEP 7 as csv file creation of the HTML report file by importing the csv file topology into the topology reporter tool and conversion into a HTML file 5.2 Export of the topology raw data from STEP 7 The topology reporter requires a csv file as input format that can be exported from the STEP 7 topology editor. To do this, proceed as follows. Version 1.0, Entry ID:

5 Operation of the Tool 5.2 Export of the topology raw data from STEP 7 Table 5-1 No. Action Comment 1 Open your project in the SIMATIC Manager and go to the hardware configuration.
