ProfiTrace 2

ProfiTrace 2 is the most powerful analyser for PROFIBUS
networks. It is the latest generation in the line of busmonitor technology because it combines all primary tools to one: analyser, Oscilloscope, Bar graph and DP-V0/V1 Master.

The advanced USB hardware is equipped with a high speed digital oscilloscope and able to capture bus signals running at 12 Mbps.

ProfiTrace 2 is an essential tool for maintenance, commissioning and troubleshooting. The classical 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 limits and capabilities of service, maintenance and engineering technicians.
