● Controller (PROFIBUS: Master Class 1, PROFINET IO: IO Controller)
This is typically a higher-level control in which the automation program runs.
Example: SIMATIC S7 and SIMOTION
● Supervisor (PROFIBUS: Master Class 2, PROFINET IO: IO Supervisor)
Devices for configuration, commissioning, operator control and monitoring during bus
operation. Devices that only non-cyclically exchange data with Drive Units and
Controllers.
