Product Information
Today, many process plants or factories use SCADA or asset management software to obtain an overview of the production status and application alarms. However, they do not have information on the status and behavior of PROFIBUS, which could indicate a possible shutdown. This information greatly contributes to the uptime of the installation.
Using ProfiTrace OPC, it is now possible to obtain the actual status of your PROFIBUS network directly in your SCADA system, allowing maintenance engineers and operators to react quickly to any PROFIBUS-related alarms or irregular events that appear on the screen. The possibilities are enormous.
You can display ProfiTrace tags in a SCADA/HMI package or link it to an SMS/email client and send a message when something happens with the PROFIBUS installation, or even generate your own report in MS Word/Excel. Any application that acts as an OPC client can access the ProfiTrace tags. It does NOT alter the PROFIBUS cycle time because the information comes from busmonitoring (listening).
You can test the OPC server for 30 minutes without a license.
