Hi there,
first of all both devices you mentioned ... NPI3 ... or TIB100 both includes a network controller chip made by Hilscher named netX. The netX chip is able to run as PROFINET device with a certain amount of PROFINET input and output data that is periodically exchanged with a PROFINET controller e.g. Siemens PLC S7-1200 or S7-1500 or any other PROFINET controller. So with this point I see no problem to forward data to PROFINET controller.
But you have mentioned TCP/IP. But TCP/IP is a transport protocol only on layer 4 as explained here https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internetprotokollfamilie. So please tell me more about your TCP/IP frames the measurement card sends to the RPI3. Which underlying application protocol on layer 5,6,7 embedded in these TCP/IP frames are you using to provide a kind of addressing model in order to give Win 10 IoT Core running RPI3 the chance to interpret the data. Is it HTTP protocol or is it Modbus TCP protocol over TCP/IP? Which one?
Thx
Armin
