Profinet I/O mapping to variables

Technical Questions Robot Communication

I have a UR10e connected to a 1500 Siemens PLC via Profinet. Connection is working.

If i set one of the BOOL inputs to start the programm and one to stop the programm it works fine.

Now i want to use a bool input for a WAIT command in my programm and i have some trouble. I rename the input (to be used in my programm) but it never appears in the variables dropdown and a error appeaers when trying to run the programm.

I can’t find proper documentation for the Profinet Communication but in chapter 17.1.5 of the UR10e doc it says i have to rename it to be able to use it in the programm. Not working for my sadly.

Help is highly appreciated!

Greetings

I found the solution.

The renamed input appears in the input dropdown, not the variables dropdown. Makes sense i guess :slight_smile:
