Configuration Tools

Proficy Machine Edition (PME) is the primary tool used to configure an RX3i PROFINET network. In addition, for
the PNC001 module only, certain parameters can be set from a computer through the Command Line Interface
(CLI).
The Command Line Interface can be used to set the non-volatile parameters in the PNC001-Ax module, as
listed below. These parameters are initially set up in the PME configuration. If any of these parameters is
subsequently changed using CLI, the PNC001 module uses the new setting. Regardless of their source, the
PNC001 module retains these settings in non-volatile memory, thus ensuring they can be re-asserted following
a power cycle.
