C'est dans un énième discours sur le perron de Matignon que le Premier ministre Sébastien Lecornu a annoncé le 16 janvier à 18h30 une série de mesures dont des premières annonces en faveur du logement afin d'éviter la censure du Gouvernement sur le budget. Après avoir menacé les députés de dissoudre l'Assemblée nationale puis de faire adopter le budget de l'État par ordonnance, Sébastien Lecornu à la quête d'un compromis s'est enfin dit prêt à faire évoluer la copie budgétaire. Côté logement, le chef de l'Exécutif répond à la demande du groupe du Parti socialiste (PS) et il propose de renoncer à l'année blanche « pour les allocations sur le logement » (APL) envisagée dans le budget initial mais aussi une augmentation de 400 millions d'euros des moyens pour les bailleurs sociaux pour qu'ils construisent bien et qu'ils rénovent mieux. Sébastien Lecornu prévoit aussi 200 millions d'euros « pour de nouveaux projets Fonds vert » ainsi que le maintien de MaPrimeRenov'. C'est un outil selon lui « utile » et « efficace ». Enfin, pour la première fois, le Premier ministre a souhaité poser les bases d'un statut du bailleur privé pour relancer l'investissement locatif privé au moment où les fameux Conseil national de la refondation et de l'habitat, les alertes des notaires ou le dernier rapport Daubresse-Cosson ont rappelé l'urgence du secteur. C'est dans ce contexte que le ministre du Logement, Vincent Jeanbrun, bien silencieux jusqu'à aujourd'hui a promis « un très beau statut du bailleur privé » au cours de la cérémonie des vœux d'Action Logement organisée ce mardi 20 janvier en présence de son président Bruno Arcadipane, l'ancien ministre de la Ville Jean-Louis Borloo, promoteurs, constructeurs, parlementaires et syndicalistes comme Frédéric Souillot, secrétaire général de Force ouvrière (FO). L'objectif est bien de prendre en compte le déficit foncier dans le calcul du revenu global du bailleur particulier en quête de rentabilité. Réduction de loyer de solidarité (RLS), statut du bailleur privé, MaPrimeRenov', l'hébergement d'urgence… Lionel Causse, député des Landes (Ensemble pour la République) des Landes nous explique qui sont les grands gagnants et les perdants (Fonds national des aides à la pierre, plafonds du PTZ et prêts subventionnés) à l'issue de l'adoption du budget du logement pour 2026.

C'est l'argent "mort", quand l'État tue la valeur : Tu encaisses 100€. L'État prend sa part en impôts. Il la redistribue à ton locataire en APL. Qui te la redonne en loyer. Résultat : de l'argent qui tourne en rond sans créer de valeur. Aux États-Unis, 100$ encaissés = 100$ vivants. Pas de circuit absurde. Pendant ce temps, on vient d'encaisser un choc inflationniste brutal : 100€ en 2026 = 100 francs en 1996, en tout cas, dans nos têtes aujourd'hui. On a perdu 6,57x de pouvoir d'achat. Même si ton compte affiche le même chiffre, de l'argent t'a été pris. Et avec les cycles économiques qui arrivent, comment on absorbe le prochain choc avec une monnaie déjà entamée ? L'euro a un problème structurel. Le Brexit a ouvert une brèche. Si l'Angleterre prospère hors de l'UE dans les 10 prochaines années, d'autres suivront. Mais pour nous ?

Mateo 4:4 (NVI) Jesús respondió: «Escrito está: “No solo de pan vivirá el hombre, sino de toda palabra que sale de la boca de Dios”. Jesús pronunció estas palabras en el desierto, hambriento, cansado y bajo presión. El enemigo lo tentó a convertir las piedras en pan, apelando a su necesidad física y a su alivio inmediato. Pero Jesús respondió con una verdad poderosa: la vida no se sustenta solo de pan, sino de la Palabra de Dios. En otras palabras, lo que Dios dice importa más que lo que sentimos, lo que vemos o lo que nos falta. Al comenzar este ayuno de 21 días, muchos llegan cansados. Algunos oran oraciones que ya han hecho antes. Otros luchan contra el desánimo. Otros se preguntan en silencio: “¿Cambiará algo algún día?”. Este ayuno comienza con un recordatorio simple pero profundo: Estás a una palabra de distancia. A lo largo de las Escrituras, vemos momentos en los que todo cambió porque Dios habló. María era una joven común y corriente cuando un ángel le entregó una palabra extraordinaria. El futuro de la humanidad pendía de un hilo, y su respuesta fue sencilla pero contundente: «Hágase en mí conforme a tu palabra» (Lucas 1:38). Esa palabra, promesa, cambió su vida para siempre. La fe no se encontraba en comprenderlo todo, sino en confiar en la palabra de Dios. El centurión romano acudió a Jesús desesperado por la sanación de su siervo. No le pidió a Jesús que fuera a su casa. En cambio, le dijo: «Solo di una palabra, y mi siervo sanará» (Mateo 8:8). Jesús se maravilló de su fe. La sanación no requirió proximidad, solo una palabra. Y esa palabra viajó más lejos y más rápido que cualquier presencia física. En la creación, Dios no luchó contra la oscuridad, sino que le habló. «Y dijo Dios: “Sea la luz”; y fue la luz» (Génesis 1:3). La oscuridad no discutió. El caos no se resistió. Una palabra de Dios trajo orden, belleza y vida. Este ayuno no se trata de ganar el favor de Dios. Se trata de preparar tu corazón para escucharlo. Cuando nos negamos el pan natural, declaramos que la Palabra de Dios es nuestra verdadera fuente de vida. Cree que Su Palabra aún tiene poder. Cree que lo que Él dice tiene la autoridad final sobre lo que ves.   Oración de hoy Querido Padre Celestial, Al comenzar este ayuno, aquietamos nuestros corazones ante Ti. Confesamos que hemos buscado la vida en muchos lugares, pero hoy declaramos que Tu Palabra es nuestro verdadero sustento. Habla, Señor, una palabra tuya es suficiente para traer luz a nuestra oscuridad, fuerza a nuestra debilidad y esperanza a nuestra espera. En el nombre de Jesús, oramos. Amén.   Aplícalo hoy Al ayunar, que esta sea tu confesión diaria: No estoy vacío, estoy esperando. No estoy estancado, estoy posicionado. No estoy olvidado, estoy a una palabra de distancia.

Aujourd'hui, nous abordons l'une des propositions de réforme sociale les plus clivantes : le plafonnement des aides sociales – RSA, APL, allocations familiales, etc. – à 1 500 euros par mois et par foyer. Faut-il y voir une mesure de bon sens budgétaire ou une menace pour les plus fragiles ?Les partisans de ce plafonnement, dont la figure de proue est Agnès Verdier-Molinié de la Fondation iFRAP, avancent un argument de poids : celui de l'économie publique. Cette mesure permettrait de réaliser une dizaine de milliards d'euros d'économies par an. C'est un montant colossal qui pourrait soulager les finances publiques, confrontées à une dette massive.Mais au-delà de l'aspect purement comptable, cette proposition répond à une forte attente populaire. Un sondage réalisé par Odoxa pour la Fondation iFRAP a montré que 72% des Français se disent favorables à un tel plafonnement. Cette adhésion majoritaire s'explique souvent par la volonté de mettre fin à ce que certains appellent l'« assistanat » : l'idée qu'il ne doit jamais être plus avantageux de percevoir des aides que d'occuper un emploi. Le plafonnement servirait donc à rétablir une justice sociale par le travail en garantissant que le revenu du travail reste toujours supérieur au revenu issu uniquement des transferts sociaux.Cependant, les économistes et les associations de lutte contre la pauvreté mettent en garde contre les effets pervers d'une mesure aussi uniforme. L'aide sociale n'est pas un bloc unique ; elle est constituée de dispositifs ciblés pour des besoins précis. Par exemple, l'APL est liée au coût du logement, et les allocations familiales au nombre d'enfants.Plafonner à 1 500 euros pourrait se révéler une catastrophe pour les foyers les plus vulnérables. Imaginons une mère isolée avec trois enfants vivant dans une zone où les loyers sont élevés. Son cumul d'aides peut dépasser ce seuil non pas par 'luxe', mais par la nécessité structurelle de couvrir le loyer, la garde d'enfants et les dépenses alimentaires. En imposant un plafond, on risque de plonger ces familles directement dans la grande précarité, voire de les empêcher de se loger dignement.La question n'est donc pas seulement de savoir si l'État peut économiser 10 milliards d'euros, mais si ces économies ne se feront pas au prix d'une augmentation de la pauvreté, engendrant à terme des coûts sociaux encore plus élevés.Le débat sur le plafonnement incarne la tension classique entre la rigueur budgétaire souhaitée par une majorité de Français et l'impératif de solidarité nationale. La solution réside peut-être dans une réforme plus fine, qui distinguerait les aides selon leur finalité – garantir le minimum vital, encourager le retour à l'emploi, ou compenser les charges familiales.

Cilvēkus visos laikos saistījuši baisi stāsti, kriminālās ziņas un viss mīklainais un neatklātais. Vai tās būtu kādas paranormālas parādībās, detektīvs vai šausmu filma - tie visi rada aizrautību un zināmu devu adrenalīna. Kāpēc cilvēki labprāt izvēlas baidīties un kāpēc mūs saista nezināmais? Ko par to stāsta folkloras un psiholoģijas pētījumi? Raidījumā Zināmais nezināmajā sarunājas Latvijas Universitātes Humanitāro zinātņu fakultātes pētnieks Ingus Barovskis un psihoterapeits, RSU Psihosomatikās medicīnas un psihoterapijas katedras docents Artūrs Utināns. Par spokiem runājot, kāpēc mēs dažkārt baidāmies no izdomātiem tēliem, nevis no reālām dzīves situācijām un problēmām, piemēram, slikta dzīvesveida, ka tas radīt gan slimības vai izraisīt pat nāvi. Kāpēc iedomu spoks dažkārt nobiedē vairāk nekā neveselīgs dzīvesveids? Artūrs Utināns: Tas ir smadzeņu evolūcijas likums, bioloģiskā evolūcija ir konservatīvāka par kulturālo evolūciju. Tāpēc, piemēram, var pajautāt, kāpēc cilvēki baidās no zirnekļa? Ja būs 20 sieviešu auditorija, vismaz vienai noteikti būs zirnekļa fobija. Vēl kādai varētu būt čūsku vai peļu fobija. Es 32 prakses gados ne reizi neesmu nevienu cilvēku redzējis, kam būtu pistoļu fobija, piemēram. Šī zirnekļu, čūsku, peļu, žurku fobija - tā ir dispozīcija no mūsu evolucionārās pagātnes, kad mēs izgājām no Āfrikas, un šie dzīvnieki bija bīstami vai peles un žurkas pārnēsāja kaut kādas slimības. Līdz ar to tie cilvēki, kas turējās vairāk pa gabalu, tie labāk izdzīvoja. Lai arī mūsu smadzenēm nebija patiesā skaidrojuma, kāpēc tāda maza, pelēka pelīte varētu būt bīstama.  Savukārt tas, kas nāk ar kultūru, piemēram, holesterīna līmenis un glikozes līmenis asinīs, to mūsu smadzenes tā neasimilē. Nav tā, ka mūsu zemapziņā konkrēti zirneklis ierakstās kā fobiskais objekts, bet dispozīcija, ka vieni objekti izsauc bailes vieglāk un fobijas, savukārt tie citi jaunie kulturālie - mazāk. Tāpat kā cilvēki automašīnās iet bojā daudz biežāk nekā lidmašīnu katastrofās, bet fobija lidot vai fobija no augstuma mums kā pērtiķu turpinātājiem, kas lēkāja pa kokiem un varēja nokrist no zara, ir aktuālāka, nekā iedomāties, ka automašīna ir daudz bīstamāka. Vai līdzīgi ir mainījies tas, par ko mītiskajos stāstos vai mistērijās un filmās mēģina mums šīs bailes radīt. Mūs vairs nenobiedēs ar kaut ko, ar ko varēja nobiedēt varbūt cilvēku pirms simts un 1000 gadiem. Ingus Barovskis: Man jau pat gribas jautāt: ar ko vispār vēl var nobiedēt mūsdienu cilvēku? Vai tad mēs visu jau neesam redzējuši? Zombijs ir redzēts, pele jau arī ir redzēta... Rakstniekam Vladimiram Kaijakam gan 70. gadu beigās iznāca stāsts "Zirneklis", kur arī biedē ar zirnekli, kurš kļūst milzīgi liels un līdzīgi kā amerikāņu filmās mēdz ieturēties ar cilvēku.  Protams, tas baiļu objekts, respektīvi, tas objekts, kuram būtu jāizraisa bailes, mainās līdz ar kultūras periodiem. Tas mainās arī ar to aspektu, kurš piedāvā šo baiļu objektu. Ja paskatāmies senākās kristietības idejās - kas ir ellē? Kārtīgam cilvēkam ir jābaidās no elles. Tad ir visnotaļ krāšņi aprakstīti tie radījumi, kas cilvēku tur sagaidīs, velni, dēmoni un tā tālāk. Neviens negrib tur nonākt un sastapties ar šiem radījumiem. Un gluži vienkārši cilvēks dara to, lai tas nenotiktu. Pamatā, protams, ir ticība. Manuprāt, ja mēs neticam kaut kam, mēs nebaidāmies. Ja mēs neticam spokiem, diez vai mēs iedomāsimies, ka tas, kas uzmirdzēja kaut kur pagriezienā, ka tas ir spoks. Tāpat, ja skatāmies latviešu mitoloģijas kontekstā - baidās no tā, kas ir svarīgs, baidās no tā, kas ir arī nozīmīgs. Piemēram, zeme, htoniskais. Kāpēc baidīties no htoniskā? Čūska ir htoniskā būtne, saistīta ar lielo pirmmāti, ar atdzimšanu. Ko tur baidīties? Bet baidās no tā, kas svarīgs un pret kuru kaut kā ne tā izturoties, var kaitēt. Ja izdara kaut ko ne tā, kā vajag, var nebūt raža, var nebūt auglība. Tāpēc tas rada bailes.  Ko dara maza pelīte, kāpēc baidīties? Pele nonāk pazemē, viņa ir kā mediators, šeit, protams, runāju no mitoloģiskā skatījuma, viņa ir kā mediators starp šo pasauli un pazemes pasauli. Un tas jau uzreiz ir diezgan bīstami. Iespējams, tas kaut kā vēl joprojām reprezentējas cilvēka domāšanā, cilvēka uzskatos. Es šobrīd filozofēju. Raidījumā noslēgumā zinātnes ziņas Lai neraudātu, sīpolu iesaka griezt ar asu nazi, bet lēnām Iepsējams beidzot rasts risinājums, kā raudāt mazāk, griežot sīpolus. Tā kā pie vainas ir sīpolu sulā esošā viela - kāds sērorganisko savienojumu klases oksīds, zinātnieki no Cornela universitātes ASV izmērījuši, ka, griežot sīpolus ar asiem nažiem un lēnākām kustībām, tā sulā esošās attiecīgās vielas molekulas izplatās lēnāk un mazākā apjomā, tā pasargājot acis no asarošanas. Aplūkojot sīpolu griešanu augstas izšķirtspējas mikroskopā, pētnieki secinājuši, ka, griežot sīpolus ar asākiem nažiem, tiek pielikts mazāk spēka to mizu saspiešanai, kā rezultātā sīpolos esošās sulas pilieni gaisā izplatās mazāk un līdz acīm nemaz nenonāk. Zinātnieki rada “superkoksni”, kas ir stiprāka par tēraudu Šāda vēsts, kas publicēta “CNN” tīmekļa vietnē, nonākusi mūsu uzmanības lokā šonedēļ. Tiesa, “superkoksnes” pētījumi aizsākušies jau agrāk, tos īstenojis materiālzinātnieks, Jeilas Universitātes profesors Liangbings Hu. Pirms vairāk nekā desmit gadiem viņš uzsācis meklējumus, kā inovatīvi pārveidot koksni, bet galvenais mērķis - padarīt koksni stiprāku. 2017. gadā viņa darbībā noticis izrāviens, kas pēc tam aprakstīts publikācijā vietnē “Nature”. Profesors Hu koksni vispirms vārījis ūdens vannā ar izvēlētām ķīmiskām vielām, pēc tam koksni karsti presējis, lai to padarītu ievērojami blīvāku. Nedēļu ilgā procesa beigās iegūtajai koksnei stiprības un svara attiecība bijusi “augstāka nekā lielākajai daļai strukturālo metālu un sakausējumu”. Tā savulaik teikts publikācijā “Nature”, un šobrīd “superkoksne” tiek piedāvāta komerciālai ražošanai.  Cik sens ir šis “superkoksnes” stāsts globālā un Latvijas kontekstā? Kas pašmāju zinātniekiem, kuri ikdienā strādā ar koksnes pētījumiem, koksnes blīvināšanu un lignīna noņemšanas procesiem šķiet jau pazīstams un kas ir jauns? Stāsta Latvijas Valsts koksnes ķīmijas institūta Celulozes laboratorijas vadošā pētniece Laura Andže.

What happens if you can't afford your whole life insurance premium anymore? It's the most common concern when people design large policies for Infinite Banking: "I don't want to pay this huge premium until I'm 95 years old." The truth is, once you understand what premium is doing for you—building momentum, creating guaranteed growth, and establishing your family banking system—you won't want to stop. But life happens. Income disruptions, career changes, or simply changing priorities might make you reconsider. That's why understanding your contractual rights matters. There are five distinct options when you can't or won't continue paying premiums, and most people only know about the worst one: surrendering for cash. This episode breaks down all five options, from the contractual non-forfeiture provisions required by state law to the optimal strategy that lets your policy sustain itself. We explain extended term insurance, reduced paid-up insurance, automatic premium loans, and the dividend payment strategy—plus why working with an authorized IBC practitioner ensures you actually have access to these options. The goal isn't to plan your exit from day one, but to understand the full contract you're entering and know you have control no matter what happens.Chapters:00:00 - Opening segment07:00 - Introduction to non-forfeiture options and PUA  10:00 - Four contractual non-forfeiture options overview  11:20 - Cash value refresher13:00 - Net present value14:40 - Dave Ramsey's misrepresentation   17:50 - Company exposure and why cash value grows over time  18:55 - Option 1: Cash surrender value (closing the policy)  20:30 - Option 2: Extended term insurance explained  25:45 - Option 3: Automatic premium loan (APL)  27:00 - When APL makes sense: income disruption scenarios  32:00 - Base premium vs. total premium: What you actually need to sustain  35:00 - Option 4: Reduced paid-up insurance (RPU)  36:25 - Why you can't RPU before year seven (MEC rules)  42:15 - How using dividends changes projections  44:50 - Option 5: Using dividends to pay premiums (the optimal strategy)  48:05 - Keeping premium door open  52:00 - Protection and savings before speculation  54:10 - Keeping the wall between savings and investments  56:30 - Final thoughtsKey Takeaways:- Cash surrender value is not separate from death benefit—it's your equity in the future payment at present value- There are 5 total options when you can't pay premium: 4 contractual non-forfeiture options plus the dividend strategy- Cash surrender (Option 1): Walk away with equity, lose all coverage—least recommended option- Extended term insurance (Option 2): Same death benefit dollar amount, reduced timeframe based on cash value- Reduced paid-up insurance (Option 3): Same timeframe (whole life), reduced death benefit, no future premiums required- Automatic premium loan (Option 4): Company loans against cash value to pay base premium automatically- Dividend payment (Option 5): Use policy dividends to pay base premium—the optimal approach for mature policies- Not all whole life companies support optimal IBC design—must have PUA riders available- Work only with Nelson Nash Institute authorized practitioners to ensure proper policy structure- Goal is never to stop paying premium once you understand what it's doing for your family banking system- Your whole life policy should be the asset you understand most completely before signingGot Questions?Reach out to us at info@remnantfinance.com or book a call at https://remnantfinance.com/calendar !Visit https://remnantfinance.com for more informationLow Stress Trading: https://remnantfinance.com/options  FOLLOW REMNANT FINANCEYoutube: @RemnantFinance (https://www.youtube.com/@RemnantFinance )Facebook: @remnantfinance (https://www.facebook.com/profile.id=61560694316588 )Twitter: @remnantfinance (https://x.com/remnantfinance )TikTok: @RemnantFinanceDon't forget to hit LIKE and SUBSCRIBE

My name is Shawn Tierney from Insights and Automation, and I wanna thank you for tuning back in this week. Now on this show, I actually had the opportunity to sit down with Thomas Weingoner from PI to learn all about PROFINET. I actually reached out to him because I had some product vendors who wanted me to cover their s two features in their products, and I thought it would be first it’d be better to actually sit down and get a refresh on what s two is. It’s been five years since we’ve had a PROFINET expert on, so I figured now would be a good time before we start getting into how those features are used in different products. So with that said, I also wanna mention that Siemens has sponsored the episode, so it will be completely ad free. I love it when vendor sponsor the shows. Not only do we get the breakeven on the show itself, we also get to release it ad free and make the video free as well. So thank you, Siemens. If you see anybody from Siemens, thank them for sponsoring the Automation Podcast. As a matter of fact, thank any vendor who’s ever sponsored any of our shows. We really appreciate them. One final PSA that I wanna throw out there is that, speaking like I talked about this yesterday on my show, Automation Tech Talk, As we’ve seen with the Ethernet POCs we’re talking about, a lot of micro POCs that were $250 ten years ago are now $400. Right? That’s a lot of inflation, right, for various reasons. Right? And so one of the things I did this summer is I took a look at my P and L, my pros profit and loss statements, and I just can’t hold my prices where they are and be profitable. Right? So if I’m not breaking even, the company goes out of business, and we’ll have no more episodes of the show. So how does this affect you? If you are a student over at the automation school, you have until mid September to do any upgrades or purchase any, courses at the 2020 prices. Alright? So I I don’t wanna raise the prices. I’ve tried as long as I can, but at some point, you have to give in to what the prices are that your vendors are charging you, and you have to raise the prices. So, all my courses are buy one, sell them forever, so this does not affect anybody who’s enrolled in a course. Actually, all of you folks rolled in my PLC courses, I see it updates every week now. So and those who get the ultimate bundles, you’re seeing new lessons added to the new courses because you get that preorder access plus some additional stuff. So in any case but, again, I wanna reiterate, if you’re a vendor who has an old balance or if you are a student who wants to buy a new course, please, make your plans in the next couple of weeks because in mid September, I do have to raise the prices. So I just wanna throw that PSA out there. I know a lot of people don’t get to the end of the show. That’s what I wanted to do at the beginning. So with that said, let’s jump right into this week’s podcast and learn all about Profinet. I wanna welcome to the show, Tom from Profibus, Profinet North America. Tom, I really wanna just thank you for coming on the show. I reached out to you to ask about ask you to come on to to talk to us about this topic. But before we jump in, could you, first tell the audience a little bit about yourself? Tom Weingartner (PI): Yeah. Sure. Absolutely, Shawn. I’m gonna jump to the next slide then and and let everyone know. As Shawn said, my name is Tom, Tom Weingartner, and I am the technical marketing director at PI North America. I have a fairly broad set of experiences ranging from ASIC hardware and software design, and and then I’ve moved into things like, avionic systems design. But it seemed like no no matter what I was working on, it it always centered around communication and control. That’s actually how I got into industrial Ethernet, and I branched out into, you know, from protocols like MIL standard fifteen fifty three and and airing four twenty nine to other serial based protocols like PROFIBUS and MODBUS. And, of course, that naturally led to PROFINET and the other Ethernet based protocols. I I also spent quite a few years developing time sensitive networking solutions. But now I focus specifically on PROFINET and its related technologies. And so with that, I will jump into the the presentation here. And and, now that you know a little bit about me, let let me tell you a little bit about our organization. We are PROFIBUS and PROFINET International or PI for short. We are the global organization that created PROFIBUS and PROFINET, and we continue to maintain and promote these open communication standards. The organization started back in 1989 with PROFIBUS, followed by PROFINET in the early two thousands. Next came IO Link, a communication technology for the last meter, and that was followed by OmLux, a communication technology for wireless location tracking. And now, most recently, MTP or module type package. And this is a communication technology for easier, more flexible integration of process automation equipment. Now we have grown worldwide to 24 regional PI associations, 57 competent centers, eight test labs, and 31 training centers. It’s important to remember that we are a global organization because if you’re a global manufacturer, chances are there’s PROFINET support in the country in which you’re located, and you can get that support in the country’s native language. In the, lower right part of the slide here, we are showing our technologies under the PI umbrella. And I really wanted to point out that these, these technologies all the technologies within PI umbrella are supported by a set of working groups. And these working groups are made up of participants from member companies, and they are the ones that actually create and update the various standards and specifications. Also, any of these working groups are open to any member company. So, PI North America is one of the 24 regional PI associations, and we were founded in 1994. We are a nonprofit member supported organization where we think globally and act locally. So here in North America, we are supported by our local competence centers, training centers, and test labs. And and competence centers, provide technical support for things like protocol, interoperability, and installation type questions. Training centers provide educational services for things like training courses and hands on lab work. And test labs are, well, just that. They are labs that provide testing services and device certification. So any member company can be any combination of these three. You can see here if you’re looking at the slide, that the Profi interface center is all three, where we have JCOM Automation is both a competent center and a training center. And here in North in North America, we are pleased to have HMS as a training center and Phoenix Contact also as a competent center. Now one thing I would like to point out to everyone is that what you should be aware of is that every PROFINET, device must be certified. So if you make a PROFINET device, you need to go to a test lab to get it certified. And here in North America, you certify devices at the PROFINETERFACE center. So I think it’s important to begin our discussion today by talking about the impact digital transformation has had on factory networks. There has been an explosion of devices in manufacturing facilities, and it’s not uncommon for car manufacturers to have over 50,000 Ethernet nodes in just one of their factories. Large production cells can have over a thousand Ethernet nodes in them. But the point is is that all of these nodes increase the amount of traffic automation devices must handle. It’s not unrealistic for a device to have to deal with over 2,000 messages while it’s operating, while it’s trying to do its job. And emerging technologies like automated guided vehicles add a level of dynamics to the network architecture because they’re constantly entering and leaving various production cells located in different areas of the factory. And, of course, as these factories become more and more flexible, networks must support adding and removing devices while the factory is operating. And so in response to this digital transformation, we have gone from rigid hierarchical systems using field buses to industrial Ethernet based networks where any device can be connected to any other device. This means devices at the field level can be connected to devices at the process control level, the production level, even even the operations level and above. But this doesn’t mean that the requirements for determinism, redundancy, safety, and security are any less on a converged network. It means you need to have a network technology that supports these requirements, and this is where PROFINET comes in. So to understand PROFINET, I I think it’s instructive here to start with the OSI model since the OSI model defines networking. And, of course, PROFINET is a networking technology. The OSI model is divided into seven layers as I’m sure we are all familiar with by now, starting with the physical layer. And this is where we get access to the wire, internal electrical signals into bits. Layer two is the data link layer, and this is where we turn bits into bytes that make up an Ethernet frame. Layer three is the network layer, and this is where we turn Ethernet frames into IP packets. So I like to think about Ethernet frames being switched around a local area network, and IP packets being routed around a wide area network like the Internet. And so the next layer up is the transport layer, and this is where we turn IP packets into TCP or UDP datagrams. These datagrams are used based on the type of connection needed to route IP packets. TCP datagrams are connection based, and UDP datagrams are connectionless. But, really, regardless of the type of connection, we typically go straight up to layer seven, the application layer. And this is where PROFINET lives, along with all the other Ethernet based protocols you may be familiar with, like HTTP, FTP, SNMP, and and so on. So then what exactly is PROFINET, and and what challenges is it trying to overcome? The most obvious challenge is environmental. We need to operate in a wide range of harsh environments, and, obviously, we need to be deterministic, meaning we need to guarantee data delivery. But we have to do this in the presence of IT traffic or non real time applications like web servers. We also can’t operate in a vacuum. We need to operate in a local area network and support getting data to wide area networks and up into the cloud. And so to overcome these challenges, PROFINET uses communication channels for speed and determinism. It uses standard unmodified Ethernet, so multiple protocols can coexist on the same wire. We didn’t have this with field buses. Right? It was one protocol, one wire. But most importantly, PROFINET is an OT protocol running at the application layer so that it can maintain real time data exchange, provide alarms and diagnostics to keep automation equipment running, and support topologies for reliable communication. So we can think of PROFINET as separating traffic into a real time channel and a non real time channel. That mess messages with a particular ether type that’s actually eighty eight ninety two, and the number doesn’t matter. But the point here is that the the the real time channel, is is where all PROFINET messages with that ether type go into. And any other ether type, they go into the non real time channel. So we use the non real time channel for acyclic data exchange, and we use the real time channel for cyclic data exchange. So cyclic data exchange with synchronization, we we classify this as time critical. And without synchronization, it is classified as real time. But, really, the point here is that this is how we can use the same standard unmodified Ethernet for PROFINET as we can for any other IT protocol. All messages living together, coexisting on the same wire. So we take this a step further here and and look at the real time channel and and the non real time channel, and and these are combined together into a concept that we call an application relation. So think of an application relation as a network connection for doing both acyclic and cyclic data exchange, and we do this between controllers and devices. This network connection consists of three different types of information to be exchanged, and we call these types of information communication relations. So on the lower left part of the slide, you can see here that we have something called a a record data communication relation, and it’s essentially the non real time channel for acyclic data exchange to pass information like configuration, security, and diagnostics. The IO data communication relation is part of the real time channel for doing this cyclic data exchange that we need to do to periodically update controller and device IO data. And finally, we have the alarm communication relation. So this is also part of the real time channel, because, what we need to do here is it it’s used for alerting the controller to device false as soon as they occur or when they get resolved. Now on the right part of the slide, is we can see some use cases for, application relations, and and these use cases are are either a single application relations for controller to device communication, and we have an optional application relation here for doing dynamic reconfiguration. We also use an application relation for something we call shared device, and, of course, why we are here today and talking about applications relations is actually because of system redundancy. And so we’ll get, into these use cases in more detail here in a moment. But first, I wanted to point out that when we talk about messages being non real time, real time, or time critical, what we’re really doing is specifying a level of network performance. Non real time performance has cycle times above one hundred milliseconds, but we also use this term to indicate that a message may have no cycle time at all. In other words, acyclic data exchange. Real time performance has cycle times in the one to ten millisecond range, but really that range can extend up to one hundred milliseconds. So time critical performance has cycle times less than a millisecond, and it’s not uncommon to have cycle times around two hundred and fifty microseconds or less. Most applications are either real time or non real time, while high performance applications are considered time critical. These applications use time synchronization to guarantee data arrives exactly when needed, but we also must ensure that the network is open to any Ethernet traffic. So in order to achieve time critical performance here, and we do this for the most demanding applications like high speed motion control. And so what we did is we added four features to basic PROFINET here, and and we call this PROFINET ISOCRANESS real time or PROFINET IRT. These added features are synchronization, node arrival time, scheduling, and time critical domains. Now IRT has been around since 02/2004, but in the future, PROFINET will move to a new set of I triple e Ethernet standards called time sensitive networking or TSN. PROFINET over TSN will actually have the same functionality and performance as PROFINET IRT, but we’ll be able to scale to faster and faster, networks and and as bandwidth is is increasing. So this chart shows the differences between PROFINET, RT, IRT, and TSN. And the main difference is, obviously, synchronization. And these other features that, guarantee data arrives exactly when needed. Notice in in the under the, PROFINET IRT column here that that, the bandwidth for PROFINET IRT is a 100 mil a 100 megabits per second. And the bandwidth for PROFINET RT and TSN are scalable. Also, for those device manufacturers out there looking to add PROFINET IRT to their products, there are lots of ASICs and other solutions available in the market with IRT capability. Alright. So let’s take a minute here to summarize all of this. We have a a single infrastructure for doing real time data exchange along with non real time information exchange. PROFINET uses the same infrastructure as any Ethernet network. Machines that speak PROFINET do so, using network connections called application relations, and these messages coexist with all other messages so information can pass from devices to machines, to factories, to the cloud, and back. And so if you take away nothing else from this podcast today, it is the word coexistence. PROFINET coexists with all other protocols on the wire. So let’s start talking a little bit here about the main topic, system redundancy and and and why we got into talking about PROFINET at all. Right? I mean, what why do we need system redundancy and things like like, application relations and dynamic reconfiguration? Well, it’s because one of the things we’re pretty proud of with PROFINET is not only the depth of its capabilities, but also the breadth of its capabilities. And with the lines blurring between what’s factory automation, what’s process automation, and what’s motion control, we are seeing all three types of automation appearing in a single installation. So we wanna make sure PROFINET meets requirements across the entire range of industrial automation. So let’s start out here by looking at the differences between process automation versus factory automation, and then we’ll get into the details. First off, process signals typically change slower on the order of hundreds of milliseconds versus tens of milliseconds in factory automation. And process signals often need to travel longer distances and potentially into hazardous or explosive areas. Now with process plants operating twenty four seven, three sixty five, system must systems must provide high availability and support changes while the plant is in production. This is where system redundancy and dynamic reconfiguration come in. We’ll discuss these again here in in just a minute. I just wanted to finish off this slide with saying that an estop is usually not possible because while you can turn off the automation, that’s not necessarily gonna stop the chemical reaction or whatever from proceeding. Sensors and actuators and process automation are also more complex. Typically, we call them field instruments. And process plants have many, many, many more IO, tens of thousands of IO, usually controlled by a DCS. And so when we talk about system redundancy, I actually like to call it scalable system redundancy because it isn’t just one thing. This is where we add components to the network for increasing the level of system availability. So there are four possibilities, s one, s two, and r one, r two. The letter indicates if there are single or redundant network access points, and the number indicates how many application relations are supported by each network access point. So think of the network access point as a physical interface to the network. And from our earlier discussion, think of an application relation as a network connection between a controller and a device. So you have s one has, single network access points. Right? So each device has single network access points with one application relation connected to one controller. S two is where we also have single network access points, but with two application relations now connected to different controllers. R one is where we have redundant network access points, but each one of these redundant network access points only has one application relation, but those are connected to different controllers. And finally, we could kinda go over the top here with r two, and and here’s where we have redundant network access points with two application relations connected to different controllers. Shawn Tierney (Host): You know, I wanna just stop here and talk about s two. And for the people who are listening, which I know is about a quarter of you guys out there, think of s two is you have a primary controller and a secondary controller. If you’re seeing the screen, you can see I’m reading the the slide. But you have your two primary and secondary controllers. Right? So you have one of each, and, primary controller has the, application one, and secondary has application resource number two. And each device that’s connected on the Ethernet has both the one and two. So you went maybe you have a rack of IO out there. It needs to talk to both the primary controller and the secondary controller. And so to me, that is kinda like your classic redundant PLC system where you have two PLCs and you have a bunch of IO, and each piece of IO has to talk to both the primary and the secondary. So if the primary goes down, the secondary can take over. And so I think that’s why there’s so much interest in s two because that kinda is that that that classic example. Now, Tom, let me turn it back to you. Would you say I’m right on that? Or Tom Weingartner (PI): Spot on. I mean, I think it’s great, and and and really kinda emphasizing the point that there’s that one physical connection on the network access point, but now we have two connections in that physical, access point there. Right? So so you can then have one of those connections go to the primary controller and the other one to the secondary controller. And in case one of those controllers fails, the device still can get the information it needs. So, yep, that that’s how we do that. And and, just a little bit finer point on r one, if you think about it, it’s s two, but now all we’ve done is we’ve split the physical interface. So one of the physical interfaces has has, one of the connections, and the other physical interface has a has the other connection. So you really kinda have, the same level of redundant functionality here, backup functionality with the secondary controller, but here you’re using, multiple physical interfaces. Shawn Tierney (Host): Now let me ask you about that. So as I look at our one, right, it seems like they connect to port let’s I’ll just call it port one on each device to switch number one, which in this case would be the green switch, and port number two of each device to the switch number two, which is the blue switch. Would that be typical to have separate switches, one a different switch for each port? Tom Weingartner (PI): It it it doesn’t have to. Right? I I I think we chose to show it like this for simplicity kinda to Shawn Tierney (Host): Oh, I don’t care. Tom Weingartner (PI): Emphasize the point that, okay. Here’s the second port going to the secondary controller. Here’s the first port going to the primary controller. And we just wanted to emphasize that point. Because sometimes these these, diagrams can be, a bit confusing. And you Shawn Tierney (Host): may have an application that doesn’t require redundant switches depending on the maybe the MTBF of the of the switch itself or your failure mode on your IO. Okay. I’m with you. Go ahead. Tom Weingartner (PI): Yep. Yep. Good. Good. Good. Alright. So, I think that’s some excellent detail on that. And so, if you wouldn’t mind or don’t have any other questions, let’s let’s move on to the the, the the next slide. So you can see in that previous slide how system redundancy supports high availability by increasing system availability using these network access points and application relations. But we can also support high availability by using network redundancy. And the way PROFINET supports network redundancy is through the use of ring topologies, and we call this media redundancy. The reason we use rings is because if a cable breaks or the physical connection, somehow breaks as well or or even a device fails, the network can revert back to a line topology keeping the system operational. However, supporting network redundancy with rings means we can’t use protocols typically used in IT networks like, STP and RSTP. And this is because, STP and RSTP actually prevent network redundancy by blocking redundant paths in order to keep frames from circulating forever in the network. And so in order for PROFINET to support rings, we need a way to prevent frames from circulating forever in the network. And to do this, we use a protocol called the media redundancy protocol or MRP. MRP uses one media redundancy manager for each ring, and the rest, of the devices are called media redundancy clients. Managers are typically controllers or PROFINET switches, and clients are typically the devices in the network. So the way it works is this. A manager periodically sends test frames, around the network here to check the integrity of the ring. If the manager doesn’t get the test frame back, there’s a failure somewhere in the ring. And so the manager then notifies the clients about this failure, and then the manager sets the network to operate as a line topology until, the failure is repaired. Right? And so that’s how we can get, network redundancy with our media redundancy protocol. Alright. So now you you can see how system redundancy and media redundancy both support high availability. System redundancy does this by increasing system availability, Walmart. Media redundancy does this by increasing network availability. Obviously, you can use one without the other, but by combining system redundancy and media redundancy, we can increase the overall system reliability. For example, here we are showing different topologies for s one and s two, and these are similar to the the the topologies that were on the previous slide. So, if you notice here that, for s one, we can only have media redundancy because there isn’t a secondary controller to provide system redundancy. S two is where we combine system redundancy and media redundancy by adding an MRP ring. But I wanted to point out here that that even though we’re showing this MRP ring as as as a possible topology, there really are other topologies possible. It really depends on the level of of system reliability you’re trying to achieve. And so, likewise, on on this next slide here, we are showing two topologies for adding media redundancy to r one and r two. And so for r one, we’ve chosen, again, probably for simplistic, simplicity’s sake, we we add an MRP ring for each redundant network access point. With for r two, we do the same thing here. We also have an MRP ring for each redundant network access point, but we also add a third MRP ring for the controllers. Now this is really just to try to emphasize the point that you can, you you can really, come up with just about any topology possible, but it because it really depends on the number of ports on each device and the number of switches in the network and, again, your overall system reliability requirements. So in order to keep process plants operating twenty four seven three sixty five, dynamic reconfiguration is another use case for application relations. And so this is where we can add or remove devices on the fly while the plant is in production. Because if you think about it, typically, when there is a new configuration for the PLC, the PLC first has to go into stop mode. It needs to then re receive the configuration, and then it can go back into run mode. Well, this doesn’t work in process automation because we’re trying to operate twenty four seven three sixty five. So with dynamic reconfiguration, the controller continues operating with its current application relation while it sets up a new application relation. Right? I mean, again, it’s it’s really trying to get this a a new network connection established. So then the the the controller then switches over to the new application relation after the new configuration is validated. Once we have this validation and the configuration’s good, the controller removes the old application relations and continues operating all while staying in run mode. Pretty handy pretty handy stuff here for for supporting high availability. Now one last topic regarding system redundancy and dynamic reconfiguration, because these two PROFINET capabilities are compatible with a new technology called single pair Ethernet, and this provides power and data over just two wires. This version of Ethernet is now part of the I triple e eight zero two dot three standard referred to as 10 base t one l. So 10 base t one l is the non intrinsically saved version of two wire Ethernet. To support intrinsic safety, 10 base t one l was enhanced by an additional standard called Ethernet APL or advanced physical layer. So when we combine PROFINET with this Ethernet APL version of 10 base t one l, we simply call it PROFINET over APL. It not only provides power and data over the same two wires, but also supports long cable runs up to a kilometer, 10 megabit per second communication speeds, and can be used in all hazardous areas. So intrinsic safety is achieved by ensuring both the Ethernet signals and power on the wire are within explosion safe levels. And even with all this, system redundancy and dynamic reconfiguration work seamlessly with this new technology we call PROFINET over APL. Now one thing I’d like to close with here is a is a final thought regarding a new technology I think I think everyone should become aware of here. I mean, it’s emerging in the market. It’s it’s quite new, and it’s a technology called MTP or module type package. And so this is a technology being applied first here to, use cases considered to be a hybrid of both process automation and factory automation. So what MTP does is it applies OPC UA information models to create standardized, non proprietary application level descriptions for automation equipment. And so what these descriptions do is they simplify the communication, between equipment and the control system, and it does this by modularizing the process into more manageable pieces. So really, the point is to construct a factory with modular equipment to simplify integration and allow for better flexibility should changes be required. Now with the help of the process orchestration layer and this OPC UA connectivity, MTP enabled equipment can plug and operate, reducing the time to commission a process or make changes to that process. This is pretty cutting edge stuff. I think you’re gonna find and hear a lot more about NTP in the near future. Alright. So it’s time to wrap things up with a summary of all the resources you can use to learn even more about PROFINET. One of the things you can do here is you can get access to the PROFINET one day training class slide deck by going to profinet2025.com, entering your email, and downloading the slides in PDF format. And what’s really handy is that all of the links in the PDF are live, so information is just a click away. We also have our website, us.profinet.com. It has white papers, application stories, webinars, and documentation, including access to all of the standards and specifications. This is truly your one stop shop for locating everything about PROFINET. Now we do our PROFINET one day training classes and IO link workshops all over The US and parts of Canada. So if you are interested in attending one of these, you can always find the next city we are going to by clicking on the training links at the bottom of the slide. Shawn Tierney (Host): Hey, guys. Shawn here. I just wanted to jump in for a minute for the audio audience to give you that website. It’s us.profinet.com/0dtc or oscardeltatangocharlie. So that’s the website. And I also went and pulled up the website, which if you’re watching, you can see here. But for those listening, these one day PROFINET courses are coming to Phoenix, Arizona, August 26, Minneapolis, Minnesota, September 10, Newark and New York City, September 25, Greenville, South Carolina, October 7, Detroit, Michigan, October 23, Portland, Oregon, November 4, and Houston, Texas, November 18. So with that said, let’s jump back into the show. Tom Weingartner (PI): Alan, one of our most popular resources is Profinet University. This website structures information into little courses, and you can proceed through them at your own pace. You can go lesson by lesson, or you can jump around. You can even decide which course to take based on a difficulty tag. Definitely make sure to check out this resource. We do have lots of great, webinars on on the, on on the website, and they’re archived on the website. Now some of these webinars, they they rehash what we covered today, but in other cases, they expand on what we covered today. But in either case, make sure you share these webinars with your colleagues, especially if they’re interested in any one of the topics that we have listed on the slide. And finally, the certified network engineer course is the next logical step if you would like to dive deeper into the technical details of PROFINET. It is a week long in Johnson City, Tennessee, and it features hands on lab work. And if you would like us to provide training to eight or more students, we can even come to your site. If you would like more details about any of this, please head to the website to learn more. And with that, Chai, I think that is, my last slide and, covered the topics that I think we wanted some to cover today. Shawn Tierney (Host): Yeah. And I just wanna point out that to you guys, this, training goes out through all around The US. I definitely recommend getting up there. If you’re using PROFINET and you wanna get some training, they usually fill the room, like, you know, 50 to a 100 people. And, it’s you know, they do this every year. So check those dates out. If you need to get some hands on with PROFINET, I would definitely check out those. And, of course, we’ll have all the links in the description. I also wanna thank Tom for that slide. Really defining s one versus s two versus r one and r two. You know, a lot of people say we have s two compatibility. A matter of fact, we’re gonna be looking at some products that have s two compatibility here in the future. And, you know, just trying to understand what that means. Right? You know, when somebody just says s two, it’s like, what does that mean? So I really if that slide really doesn’t for you guys listening, I thought that slide really kinda lays it out, kinda gives you, like, alright. This is what it means. And, so in in in my from my perspective, that’s like it’s you’re supporting redundant controllers. Right? And so if you have an s two setup of redundant, seamless controllers that or CPUs, then you’ll be that product will support that. And that’s important. Right? Because if you had a product that didn’t support it, it’s not gonna work with your application. So I thought that and the the Ethernet APL is such a big deal in process because I you know, the the distance, right, and the fact that it’s it’s, intrinsically safe and supports all those zones and and areas and whatnot, that is, and everybody everybody all the instrumentation people are all over. Right? The, the, the Rosemonts, the fishes, the, the endless houses, everybody is is on that working group. We’ve covered that on the news show many times, and, just very interesting to see where that goes, but I think it’s gonna take over that part of the industry. So, but, Tom, was there anything else you want to cover in today’s show? Tom Weingartner (PI): No. I I think that that really, puts puts a a fine finale on on on this here. I I do wanted to maybe emphasize that, you you know, that point about network redundancy being compatible with, system redundancy. So, you know, you can really hone in on what your system reliability requirements are. And and also with with this this, PROFINET over APL piece of it, completely compatible with with PROFINET, in in of itself. And and, also, you don’t have to worry about it not supporting, system redundancy or or anything of of the like, whether, you know, you you wanted to get, redundant even redundant devices out there. So, that’s that’s, I think that’s that’s about it. Shawn Tierney (Host): Alright. Well, I again, thank you so much for coming on. We look forward to trying out some of these s two profanet devices in the near future. But with that, I I really wanted to have you on first to kinda lay the groundwork for us, and, really appreciate it. Tom Weingartner (PI): No problem. Thank you for having me. Shawn Tierney (Host): Well, I hope you guys enjoyed that episode. I did. I enjoyed sitting down with Tom, getting up to date on all those different products, and it’s great to know they have all these free hands on training days coming across United States. And, you know, what a great refresher from the original 2020 presentation that we had somebody from Siemens do. So I really appreciate Tom coming on. And speaking of Siemens, so thankful they sponsored this episode so we could release it ad free and make the video free to everybody. Please, if you see Siemens or any of the vendors who sponsor our episodes, please tell them to thank you from us. It really helps us keep the show going. Speaking of keeping the show going, just a reminder, if you’re a student or a vendor, price increases will hit mid September. So if you’re a student, you wanna buy another course, now is the time to do it. If you’re a vendor and you have a existing balance, you will want to schedule those podcasts before mid September or else you’ll be subject to the price increase. So with that said, I also wanna remind you I have a new podcast, automation tech talk. I’m reusing the old automation new news headlines podcast. So if you already subscribed to that, you’re just gonna get in the new the new show for free. It’s also on the automation blog, on YouTube, on LinkedIn. So I’m doing it as a live stream every lunchtime, just talking about what I learned, in that last week, you know, little tidbits here and there. And I wanna hear from you guys too. A matter of fact, I already had Giovanni come on and do an interview with me. So at one point, I’ll schedule that as a lunchtime podcast for automation tech talk. Again, it still shows up as automation news headlines, I think. So at some point, I’ll have to find time to edit that to change the name. But in any case, with that, I think I’ve covered everything. I wanna thank you guys for tuning in. Really appreciate you. You’re the best audience in the podcast world or the video world, you know, whatever you wanna look at it as, but I really appreciate you all. Please feel free to send me emails, write to me, leave comments. I love to hear from you guys, and I just wanna wish you all good health and happiness. And until next time, my friends, peace. Until next time, Peace ✌️  If you enjoyed this content, please give it a Like, and consider Sharing a link to it as that is the best way for us to grow our audience, which in turn allows us to produce more content
