  1. ProfiNet questions

    I use Siemens S7-1200 communicating with an HMI Siemens and 2 more devices over ProfiNet. Siemens is in trouble lately, very long time delivery, almost impossible to work with... I was thinking to replace the S7-1200 with another PLC, but the software must be written from scratch, then the HMI panel works also with ProfiNet. If I change to another type, then again I must remake the screens and tags..., but the main point is that e have a special device wich communicates only with ProfiNet and worse is that many customers want only ProfiNet to exchange data with our machinery. So, I must stay with ProfiNet and a interface from ProfiNet to another protocol does not help too much, unless the entire application is remade from scratch. The easiest way is to have another PLC which is able to communicate over ProfiNet as default bus protocol, without any other expensive interfaces in-between. From here my initial question: what other PLC brand do you know, besides Siemens, which si able to communicate over ProfiNet?
  2. ProfiNet questions

    Hello, What PLC, except Siemens, has Profinet included in its bus communication protocol? What Profinet to Profinet coupler do you know except those from Siemens, Anybus and Helmholz?
