PROFIBUS
DP Master Platform |
|
|
  Introduction
ProfiCaptain is a PC based PROFIBUS DP master that
has been designed for applications like: I/O tests, commissioning,
parameterization and demonstrations. It fills the gaps that
other products leave open and makes working with PROFIBUS a
lot easier, faster and more fun.
The main platform is a configuration environment in which the
user can setup his slaves with the respective modules and parameters.
After setting up the network, the user puts them online without
compilation or download. The I/Os can simply be watched and
manipulated. If needed, class 2 functions can be used on all
addresses in the network, even if they are not configured or
belong to another master. ProfiCaptain is integrated in ProfiTrace
2.

Background information
This tool has been developed because of high investments in
hardware and software just to test, evaluate or demonstrate
PROFIBUS products (PLCs, PC cards, power supplies and cables).
If people have the means to invest, than not all communication
functions are available and it requires knowledge about tools
and programming. ProfiCaptain is a perfect solution for a small
and easy to handle master system.
