Grand Ole PROFINET
Live from the PROFINET one-day training event in Nashville – lunch is over and we are resuming with the PROFINET IO demo. Good questions at this event and a blend of Control Engineers and IT. I love to see that gap overcome. At these events, when we ask if there is cooperation or tension between…
Somewhere over the Atlantic
I’m relatively awake but not necessarily happy to be. But while I am, I will compose some Hanover Fair news to post when I land. First, news about PROFIBUS and PROFINET. A number of companies make development kits for device manufacturers to get moving quickly on PROFINET products. (We’ve recently confirmed that we will schedule…
Stuck in the office
Kind of a long stretch with no travel. Today Mike and Mike are handling the PROFIBUS in the Process Industry one-day training event in San Juan. Sure, I go to Canada for a week and the boss goes to Puerto Rico. (He doesn’t do “cold.” We all live in Arizona for a reason, I guess.)…

National Manufacturing Week Part 2
I set most of today aside to visit the show before heading off to Austin for the PROFINET one-day training event there tomorrow. But I saw all of the show I needed to during lunchtime yesterday.
National Manufacturing Week
At National Manufacturing Week today. Well, the conference actually. I participated in an all-day session moderated by Control Engineering’s Mark Hoske: a round-up of 7 Industrial Ethernet technologies. Each technology was presented and the session concluded with a round table panel discussion. Modbus and Ethernet/IP sent slides but no representative. Mark went through the slides…
PTO one-day training events in Canada
I’m just back from the PROFIBUS and Process one-day training events in Montreal and Toronto only to find snow in the mountains north of our Scottsdale office. I did not mean to bring the snow back with me! We had a lively group in each venue and a lot of good questions (and answers). There…
Let the blogging begin
We at the PTO have been looking for a good way to keep current information flowing. Blogging is the way. We don’t expect this to be a daily blog, but do check back a few times a week or sign up for notification.
