The CC-Link Partner Association has developed CC-Link IE TSN, the world's first open
industrial network utilizes Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) technology, which is anextension of standard Ethernet, to accelerate the construction of smart factories
utilizing IoT.
In response to increasingly diverse market demands in the manufacturing field, we will
provide a variety of development methods and develop a truly open industrial network
on a global scale.

Learn more about CC-Link IE TSNWhat is CC-Link IE TSN?

It is an Ethernet-based open integrated network that seamlessly connects information systems to production sites.
Utilizing CC-Link IE TSN, which applies TSN (Time-Sensitive Networking) technology, integrates control
communication and information communication into a single network, which is essential when building of smart
factories.
The information communicated over IT systems can be mixed while implementing control that guarantees real-time
performance through cyclic communication.

■ TSN technology and protocol layers
CC-Link IE TSN's protocol uses layers 3 to 7of the OSI reference model, building on the TSN technology located inlayers 2.

● TSN (Time-Sensitive Networking)
TSN consists of multiple international standards. The major standards are IEEE802.1AS (which defines the timesynchronization method) and IEEE802.1Qbv (which defines the time sharing method). Combining these with the
Ethernet standard enables punctuality, ensuring transmission within a given period of time, and mixed
implementation with other communication protocols.

■ Features
Integration of OT and IT

Maximizes motion control performance

TSN technology ensures real-time performance while
integrating communication of CC-Link IE TSN, TCP/IP
and other open network protocols in a single main line.

Even when combining fast and slow communication cycle
controls within the control communication, motion control
performance, which requires high speed, can be
maintained and equipment performance improved.

Dramatically reduces communication
cyclesReduces maintenance hours

The time-sharing system makes it possible to shorten
cyclic data update times by utilizing the synchronized timein the network and simultaneously sending input/output
communication frames in both directions at apredetermined time.

Event history can be tracked precisely in chronologicalorder, making it easier to identify the causes of errors. In
addition, precisely time-stamped log data can be used inanalysis applications to improve the accuracy of predictive
maintenance.

22Process Flow for Developing
CC-Link IE TSN Compatible Products■ Overview of CSP+
CSP+
CSP+ is an abbreviation for Control & Communication System Profile Plus. It is a profile that describes information (network
parameter information, memory map, etc.) required for the startup, operation and maintenance of CC-Link Family compatible
devices.
As CSP+ has integrated profile specifications, all CC-Link Family protocols can be described in the same format.
By using CSP+, CC-Link Family users can easily set parameters for each model with the same engineering tool.

Advantages of CSP+ development
Integrated engineering tool environment

Development Tool1 evelopment vendors of CC-Link Family compatible products do not need to create separate engineering tools as longD
as CSP+ files for the developed products are created. Furthermore, the profile notation according to applications such as
diagnostics and energy management makes it possible to display dedicated screens with layouts specialized for eachapplication in the engineering tool.

2

Reduced support operations ince the network parameter information and memory map are described in the CSP+ file, CC-Link Family users can set
S
network parameters and create comments without needing a manual. Also, since device parameters can be set andmonitored without a program, user support operations for development vendors will be reduced.

XML format adopted

CC-Link IE TSN Specifications3

 s CSP+ compatible files are in XML format, a general-purpose XML processing library can be used. Therefore,A
development vendors can reduce the time required for profile development.

CSP+ conformance testingWith the addition of CSP+ test items, conformance tests will be operated as follows.
1

Partners developing new CC-Link Family compatible products

 s of April 2013, it is necessary to take the CSP+ test in addition to the conventional device tests based on the newA
conformance test specifications.

2Partners who already have certified products

Guide to Admission

Development of CSP+ is optional for products that have already been certified.
In addition, conformance testing will be conducted free of charge for CSP+.

Flow of CSP+ operations(1) Using the CSP+ creation support tool (can be downloaded from the CC-Link Partner Association website),developmentvendors create profiles for the CC-Link Family compatible devices.
(2) After the above file is created, a conformance test is conducted at the CC-Link Partner Association, and the certified file will
be posted on the CC-Link Partner Association website.
(3) CC-Link Family users can download the CSP+ files describing the profiles of the CC-Link Protocol Family connected
devices created by development vendors of CC-Link Family compatible products from the website of CC-Link Partner
Association or the development vendor.
(4) The CC-Link Family user will use an engineering tool that can use CSP+, import the CSP+ file of the device downloaded in(3), and implement engineering for the device.
