This guide will provide the steps to configure 2 ports to be PTP enabled. Switches using the Classic OS platform are mostly limited to PTP simple mode which allows the switch to set its internal time using PTP traffic from a master close (such as a PLC), however the switch is unable to forward PTP traffic making it impossible to establish a synchronization between the PLC and Kinetix5700. This guide is for Hirschmann switches using the HiOS platform such as the OS20/30, RPS, RPSE, etc. PTP (also called CIP sync) communication is used to do achieve this time synchronization. Kinetix5700 drives must be time synchronized with the PLC to ensure commanded position and velocity matches actual position and velocity at a given time. PTP (Precision Time Protocol) is a procedure described in the IEEE 1588-2008 standard that enables the clocks in the network to be synchronized to a degree of precision of just a few 100 ns.
