ProfiScript

The first professional version of the certification tool ‘ProfiScript' for the automatic testing of DP, DP-V1 and PA devices has officially been launched.

ProfiScript is a professional tool that can test and verify the complete protocol functionality of DP, DP-V1 and PA devices. It has enormous flexibility and is very easy to use. At this moment It is the only tool available, which can power-up/down devices by an external intelligent power switch and has the capability of remote testing by the Internet. An implemented syntax interpreter can also test the GSD file.

This tool will save you time and money during your development and certification phase! It is already in use by the PROFIBUS testlabs. The result you get will certainly reflect in the testlabs and if you want we can even take a peek from our office to help you get the best results.

A FREE trial version of ProfiScript is available.
