PROFINET specification Implemented according to V2.3 ED2 MU3
Legacy Startup supported according to PROFINET specification V2.2
Limitations The size of the bus configuration file is limited by the size of the RAM Disk (1 Mbyte)
The usable (minimum) cycle time depends on the number of IO Devices used, and the amount of input and output data used.
RT over UDP is not supported
Multicast communication is not supported
DHCP is not supported (neither for PROFIT IO Controller nor for IO-Devices)
Only one IOCR per IO-Device per direction.
Only one instance of Device Access AR can be used at a time.
MRPD is not supported.
Planning of IRT is not done by the PROFINET IO Controller protocol stack
Sync Slave is not supported
Only one fragmented acyclic service can be used at a time.
Multiple MRP Managers are not supported
One DCP Service can be used in parallel only
Multiple Sync Masters are not supported
