Live List

“Colours make it easy…”

The Live List is a matrix that continuously lists all the available devices. It is directly visible which devices are ‘troublemakers’. With different background colours the status of the devices is displayed:

• Green: Device is in Data Exchange
• Yellow: Device is lost
• Red: Parameter fault
• Purple: Configuration fault
• No colour: Not in Data Exchange

Statistics matrix and network condition indicator

“Click and go…”

The statistics matrix and network condition indicator are the most powerful features of ProfiTrace. These fields can really tell what the condition of the installation is without doing difficult operations.

• Retry messages
• Bus cycle time
• Diagnostic messages
• Message recording

Message recording

“The absolute truth…”

When the user records messages, he has a perfect visual representation on the screen;

• FDL, DP, DP-V1, DP-V2, PA and I&M telegrams
• Messages can be filtered and stored
• Data interpretation of bits, bytes, words
• Error detection
• Bookmarks

ScopeWare (DP)

“The easiest oscilloscope ever…”

With the built-in oscilloscope we can detect; noise, reflections, termination problems…

• Differential and single-ended measurements
• Time scale: 50 ms to 500 ms
• Voltage scale: 0.5 to 5 V per DIV
• Multiple trigger settings
• Bit interpretation engine

Reporting

“We have proof…”

The reporting feature creates a detailed report that contains the signals of all devices, their faults, the network topology, bar graph, and administrative information.

• Generation of a detailed network report
• Summary of detected errors
• The standard layout for signatures and approvals
• Import of company logo
• ProfiTrace Reporting
