PLC-ANALYZER pro 4 is a software system
for logic analysis and acquisition of recorded data
on PLC-controlled facilities. Acquisition, representation,
and evaluation of PLC signals such as inputs, outputs,
flags, data words, etc. is now very easy.
Online display makes possible observation of the signal
waveform in real time.
In addition to long-term recording, trigger conditions
can be specified for the acquisition of particular events.
This allows rarely occurring sporadic errors to be recorded
for later analysis |

In contrast to traditional logic
analyzers, the PLC-ANALYZER pro 4 has the decisive advantage
of recording process data through standardized PLC interfaces
(e. g. SIMATIC S5 - programming unit interface), or by
automation networks (e. g. SIMATIC S7 - MPI/PPI, PROFIBUS
or Industrial Ethernet). A computer that is connected
for the purpose of programming the PLC can be used for
recording process data without hardware modifications.
The tiresome process of hooking up monitoring cables is
now a thing of the past. Cycle-precise recording is attractive
because of the complete acquisition of measured values
in each PLC cycle. By using the measurement interface
AD_USB-Box external voltage and current signals, which
are not available in the PLC, can also be recorded. |
