Top answer
The name of the PROFINET station should correspond to RFC3490.
Basically, only the lower case letters "a" to "z", "0" to "9" and "-" can be used. The character "..." is used to separate the designation, i.e. a group of a maximum of 64 characters.
The PROFINET station name can be up to 240 characters long and is to be assigned uniquely. The station name is used to recognize PROFINET participants.
