The "Reconfigure" function allows for the dynamic adaptation of a PROFINET configuration, which was initially downloaded to the controller, to the application at runtime.

With the function block ‎DED.Reconfigure‎, which is available when the generic device diagnosis is enabled (“PLC Settings:”), any device configuration in the device tree can be enabled or disabled.

In the case of PROFINET, this function block can be executed on the following devices:

  • PROFINET Controller

  • Individual slave nodes of a controller configuration (not CIFX)

  • PROFINET Device

When disabled, different configuration parameters of the devices can be changed:

  • Station name

  • IP addresses

  • Slot and subslot numbers of the modules or submodules

  • Device settings (manufacturer-specific data records)

    Then these settings are used when the device is enabled again or for the reestablished connection.
