More Information

Overview Manuals Network Mapping PROFIBUS Segment Wireless Link Recovery Setup

Features:

  • The gateway maps wireless PROFINET IO communication to a PROFIBUS segment.
  • An R-SMA antenna path supports the selected 2.4 or 5 GHz IWLAN connection.
  • Redundant 24 V inputs and optional C-PLUG storage separate supply and configuration roles.
Wireless association delivers the PROFINET side but does not replace PROFIBUS addressing.

The nine-pin interface carries bus data and a limited auxiliary 5 V supply.

Indicators divide radio, PROFIBUS and device states for fault isolation.

The Siemens 6GK1417-5AB00 IWLAN/PB LINK PN IO Gateway may remain available for quotation and support beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Carrying cyclic data between two different network domains

  • PROFINET side: The link appears as the configured IO device across IWLAN.
  • Gateway map: Assigned input and output bytes are transferred between network images.
  • PROFIBUS side: The master interface exchanges those values with addressed field devices.
  • Project consistency: Device names, addresses and module layouts must describe the same station chain.

Keeping bus timing and physical limits aligned

  • Bus rate: All devices operate at the configured common PROFIBUS speed.
  • Segment length: The documented 20 m limit is observed before adding a repeater.
  • Termination: The first and last active nodes terminate the bus segment.
  • Auxiliary supply: The 5 V interface output remains within its 100 mA load limit.

Connecting the gateway to the intended IWLAN cell

  • Antenna chain: R-SMA cable, antenna gain and placement form the radio path.
  • Country profile: Permitted band, channel and power settings follow the installation region.
  • Security: SSID, authentication and encryption must match the wireless network.
  • Roaming state: Association and signal conditions are checked before diagnosing fieldbus data.

Restoring radio and fieldbus parameters together

  • Dual supply: Both 24 V inputs and terminal polarity are checked.
  • C-PLUG: Approved removable memory can retain the configured device data.
  • Project archive: PROFINET name, IP settings, WLAN profile and PROFIBUS map are preserved.
  • Commissioning order: Power, wireless link, PROFINET state and PROFIBUS exchange are tested in sequence.
Description
For wireless coupling between two network domains, Siemens 6GK1417-5AB00 serves as the IWLAN/PB LINK PN IO gateway between a PROFIBUS segment and a PROFINET IO system. It acts as the PROFINET IO device on the wireless side and as the coordinating interface for the connected PROFIBUS devices.

Process data reaching 6GK1417-5AB00 over IWLAN is mapped to the assigned PROFIBUS stations through the nine-pin bus interface. The configured station addresses, bus rate and device layout must agree on both sides because wireless association alone does not establish the PROFIBUS process image.

Two 24 V DC inputs can feed 6GK1417-5AB00 redundantly, while the PROFIBUS connector supplies limited 5 V power for approved network components. Those circuits serve different loads, so the interface supply must not be treated as a general field-device power source.

The R-SMA antenna path of 6GK1417-5AB00 carries the configured 2.4 or 5 GHz radio link, and the front indicators separate wireless, bus and device conditions. An optional C-PLUG stores the device configuration outside the gateway so the wireless and bus parameters can be restored with matched hardware.

Technical notes
Wireless profile, antenna path, PROFIBUS rate and segment length, redundant 24 V feeds, station configuration, and C-PLUG data must align for Siemens 6GK1417-5AB00.

FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
Why can Siemens 6GK1417-5AB00 join IWLAN while PROFIBUS devices remain unavailable?
Check the Siemens 6GK1417-5AB00 PROFINET device name, project mapping, PROFIBUS address, common bus rate, termination, segment length, and slave configuration.
How should the PROFIBUS cable for 6GK1417-5AB00 be planned?
Keep the 6GK1417-5AB00 segment within the documented length, apply termination at the active ends, and add a repeater when the layout requires another segment.
Which wireless details matter before moving Siemens 6GK1417-5AB00?
Record the Siemens 6GK1417-5AB00 band, channel, country profile, SSID, authentication, antenna type, feeder loss, and radio placement.
Can the 5 V PROFIBUS output of 6GK1417-5AB00 power field devices?
No. The 6GK1417-5AB00 interface supply is limited to the documented network-component load and is not a general field-device power source.
What should be backed up before replacing Siemens 6GK1417-5AB00?
Preserve the Siemens 6GK1417-5AB00 PROFINET identity, IP settings, WLAN security, PROFIBUS map, device addresses, bus rate, C-PLUG status, and wiring record.
