Analyseur PROFIBUS ProfiTrace 2
Presentation
ProfiTrace 2 is the most powerful analyzer for PROFIBUS networks. It is the latest generation in the line of busmonitor technology because it combines all primary tools in one:
Analyzer, Oscilloscope, Bar graph, Topology Scan and DP-V0/V1 Master.
Technicians can check and troubleshoot the complete PROFIBUS network with 1 software package and 1 piece of hardware. This results in an enormous reduction in equipment, weight, costs and required knowledge. The advanced USB hardware (ProfiCore Ultra) is internally equipped with a high-speed digital oscilloscope and able to capture bus signals running at 12 Mbps.
ProfiTrace is an essential tool for maintenance, commissioning and troubleshooting as well as product development. Typical failures such as noise, reflections, voltage drops, termination problems, double addresses, wire breaks and configuration faults are easily identified. Random errors such as overshoots, error telegrams, repeats and diagnostics can also be captured and logged. The results can also be exported to detailed reports which are accepted by the industry. Predictive maintenance and asset management are now really possible! This outstanding tool that fits in your pocket will boost the capabilities of service, maintenance and engineering technicians.
