At first thank you very much for the fast reply and the good information.
That is what I already thought. The device delivers just the information from the S7 to other Profinet IO devices over the Fieldbus ports. The s7comm-nodes communicate about tcp/ip and that was my fault.
I have a further question: for one of my project tasks, I have to find out how the netPI can communicate with an S7 plc via Profinet on the one hand as a device and on the other hand as a master device. What I read is that the netX controller is not able to work as a master device. is that right?
Thank you!
Marcel
