Your Guide to Integrating PROFINET Devices into PCS 7
Since PROFINET is the native communication protocol for PCS 7, integrating a PROFINET-enabled device into a PCS 7 distributed control system (DCS) can help foster seamless communication and enhance system performance. Because integration involves more than simply adding the device to the hardware configuration, especially for third-party devices, our team often fields questions on this process. In this post we will review several factors to consider, as well as recommended steps to ensure a smooth process when integrating PROFINET devices into PCS 7.
