Profinet IO and Allen-Bradley CSP

Forum: Motion Control Motion System Design

I have Siemens and Rockwell PLCs that both need to communicate with a RMC200. The Siemens commands have a higher priority. In RMCTools Help it states that “EtherNet/IP I/O cannot be used simultaneously with a Profinet IO connection. Other protocols can be used simultaneously with EtherNet/IP.” If we flip this around, can a Profinet IO connection be used simultaneously with another protocol such as Allen-Bradley CSP?

Yes, a PROFINET I/O connection can be used simultaneously as other protocols such as Allen-Bradely CSP.
