PROFIBUS-Tester V5
Description
The PROFIBUS-Tester V5 is a powerful diagnostic and troubleshooting tool for testing the cables, measuring the signals and analyzing the communication of PROFIBUS networks. Battery-powered and with an integrated graphical display it allows direct display of measurement results in stand-alone mode. In addition, the PROFIBUS-Tester V5 supports the export of test results for advanced analysis.
Measuring functions
- Cable- and Signal test
- Analysis of bus physics, communication
- Protocol and frame analysis
- Storage oscilloscope
- Topology-Scan
- Long-term trend
- Live-Status of all bus devices
Operating in stand-alone mode the PROFIBUS-Tester V5 immediately gives an overview of the cable (segment length, unwanted reflections, bus termination…), the bus status and the signal quality. The cable test provides a detailed failure description and an estimation of the distance between failure and test location.
Special features
- Graphical display
- Built-in battery for stand-alone operation
- Network status assessment at the push of a button (also continuous measurement)
- Extended PC-based diagnostics
- Generation of detailed test reports describing the actual status of the PROFIBUS network
- Easy to use for less experienced users as well as for specialists
PROFIBUS-Tester V5: sample configuration for measuring
The PROFIBUS-Tester V5 allows full testing of live PROFIBUS segments with minimum influence on their operation. The integrated master simulator allows bus testing, even if the PLC is currently not in operation. Also single “suspicious” bus devices can be checked.
PROFIBUS-Tester V5: Measurement result on integrated LCD display
For long-term tests PROFIBUS-Tester V5 can remain stand-alone at the measuring location without PC. The tool reliably detects and analyses even transient faults that occur only sporadically.The PROFIBUS-Tester V5 helps to save commissioning time. In addition, regular preventive tests ensure continuous reliable operation and increase plant availability. However, if a problem occurs, PROFIBUS-Tester V5 will locate the reason quickly and reliably. Unplanned system downtimes will be minimized. The included software “PROFIBUS Diagnostics Suite” creates test reports of the current status of the PROFIBUS system in no time. The “oscilloscope function” allows an informative oscilloscope display even in stand-alone mode without a PC.
PROFIBUS-Tester V5: convenient analysis with the “PROFIBUS Diagnostics Suite”
The included software “PROFIBUS Diagnostics Suite” allows the visualising and detailed analysis of measurement results on the PC.
Device and software are easy to operate. So even less experienced users can achieve excellent measuring results.
