Application (continued)
Data mode
In this mode the analyzer now shows not only the digital input/
output values but also the current analog values and the input
status of the safety slaves.
Trace mode
The presentation of message frames in the style of a classic field
bus analyzer is indispensable for complex troubleshooting.
Extensive trigger functions and recording and viewing filters are
available for this purpose.
An external trigger input and trigger output round off the scope
of functions in order to find even the most difficult errors.
For troubleshooting in connection with safety monitor applica-
tions, changes of status in the code tables of safety slaves are
identified and assessed.
Test log
The recorded data of the online statistics are easy to output and
document using a test log. Verification of the state of the plant
can thus be provided for approvals or service assignments.
The new measurement assistant records the bus signals for an
adjustable period, automating the creation of the test log. A stan-
dardized quality test of AS-i plants is thus possible.
