Dear Servodude,
I think you mix up terms:
PROFINET in this context is available in 2 types:
- PROFINET RT (Real Time), which is supported by ctrlX DRIVE
- PROFINET IRT (Isochronous Real Time), which is not supported by ctrlX DRIVE
As far as we see it is possible to achieve the same functionality if using a ctrlX AUTOMATION solution connected over PROFINET to the superior SIEMENS control system. Please address to your sales responsible to further discuss a proper solution with him.
STO over safe fieldbus at ctrlX DRIVE is only possible if using our so called Safe Motion (SMO) functionality in using the SMES function.
