Diagnostics and PROFINET Webinar- Q&A
A few weeks ago we hosted a webinar together with the PIC (PROFI-Interface Center) about PROFINET Diagnostics. We had many attendees and several of them had very interesting questions during the webinar. As a recap and a way to sum up most of the questions, we have answered them below. Q&A 1.-Is there a generic…
Network Diagnostics and PROFINET
PROFINET has the best in class diagnostic mechanisms, watch this webinar to learn more about diagnostics in your PROFINET network and useful tools and testers for troubleshooting.
Motor Diagnostics
We often brag about PROFINET’s diagnostic capabilities and we brag about PROFINET’s role in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Industrie 4.0. PROFINET excels at device to controller communications. But not all communications needs to go to the controller – there is some data it just doesn’t need. There are many articles in the…
PROFIBUS PA – Diagnostics Made Easy
What follows is an excerpt from the recently released White Paper entitled 6 Reasons to Give PROFIBUS PA Another Look. Fieldbus communication has brought about a paradigm shift in automation technology. Communication used to be one-way and each line carried only a single analog signal. Fieldbus communication uses digital technology and it is bi-directional. As…
PROFINET Diagnostics Rock
Day one of the PI North America General Assembly Meeting sessions concluded with PROFINET presentations: one on diagnostics and one on the net load test tool. To open his session with a “wow,” Hunter Harrington of the PROFI Interface Center (PIC) reminded us of the importance of diagnostics… on a starship, with an edited version…
Hanover Fair – Diagnostics
PROFINET diagnostics are a huge differentiator for PROFINET. Building on the concepts pioneered by PROFIBUS (at the device, module, and channel level), PROFINET adds diagnostics for the Industrial Ethernet network. Because PROFINET is just Ethernet, it leverages IT protocols to prevent or quickly find problems. How does that help? This short animation, introduced at the…
§2.3 – Diagnostics
PROFINET offers an unprecedented level of diagnostics capability, both locally and remotely using standardized displays.

Raleigh Report: Needed – a Diagnostic Tool for Idiots
Isn’t it just always the case? You brag about something and it completely turns around. Phoenix temperature was 110 when I blogged on Monday; now on Friday we may get all the way up to 70… and rain – very unusual for this late in May. Ok, back to PROFINET. The final point I wanted…
