1 Product Description

ProfiTrace 2 is the most powerful analyzer

for PROFIBUS networks. It is the latest

generation in the line of busmonitor

technology because it combines all primary

tools to one; Analyzer, Oscilloscope, Bar

graph and DP-V0/V1 Master. Technicians

can check and troubleshoot the complete

PROFIBUS network with 1 software

package and 1 piece of hardware. This

results in an enormous reduction in

equipment, weight, costs and required

knowledge.

The advanced USB hardware (ProfiCore Ultra)

is internally equipped with a high speed digital

oscilloscope and able to capture bus signals

running at 12 Mbps. It can also be used on

PROFIBUS PA installations with the PA Probe

Ultra.

ProfiTrace 2 is an essential tool for maintenance, commissioning and troubleshooting as well as

product development. The classical failures such as noise, reflections, voltage drops, termination

problems, double addresses, wire breaks and configuration faults are easily identified. Random errors

such as overshoots, error telegrams, repeats and diagnostics can also be captured and logged. The

results can also be exported to detailed reports which are accepted by the industry.

This outstanding tool that fits in your pocket will boost the limits and capabilities of service-,

maintenance- and engineering technicians.

1.1 Product features

Analyzer with powerful statistics

Enhanced version of ProfiTrace 1: Repeats, Fall-outs, Corrupted messages, Diagnostics, Cycle

time, etc.

High speed digital oscilloscope

Differential voltage, A-line, B-line, Noise, Overshoots, Reflections, Triggers.

Bar graphs

Average, Min. and Max. values of the bus signals per device.

Reporting

Automatic generation of detailed reports that are accepted by the industry.

DP-V0/V1 master

ProfiCaptain 1 has been completely integrated with even more features.

ProfiCore Ultra USB interface

Useable on PC platforms, no power supply required and elimination of spur lines.

1.4 ProfiCore Ultra

ProfiCore Ultra is the required hardware to use ProfiTrace 2. It translates PROFIBUS to USB and vice

versa. When ProfiTrace 2 is in the analyzer mode, it passively monitors activity on PROFIBUS and

detects the presence of data traffic sent by participants on the bus. It only observes the data traffic and

does not function on the bus as a master or slave. When ProfiCaptain is used, the ProfiCore Ultra acts

a master and transmits messages on the bus.

ProfiCore Ultra has an isolated RS 485 interface and is equipped with a high speed digital oscilloscope

that is able to capture bus signals running at 12 Mbps (see Fig. 1). It can also be used on PROFIBUS

PA installations with the PA Probe Ultra.

ProfiCore Ultra has the capability to cache data in its on-board memory in case of windows

performance problems or 'higher' priority tasks like the hard-disk. ProfiCore Ultra will NOT lose one

single message.

Additionally ProfiCore Ultra has an expansion connector (RJ 45) which can be used for all kinds of

additional functionality. ProfiTrace 2 uses the expansion connector to trigger an additional

oscilloscope.

Attention Users of Windows 98, 98 Second Edition, and Millennium (Me)

PROCENTEC is not able to offer software downloads or replacement CDs for Windows 98, 98 Second

Edition (SE) or Windows Millennium (Me) for ProfiTrace 2. Microsoft has stopped supporting these

operating systems, and this change involves all suppliers.

If you received a software CD that lists any of these operating systems on the CD label, be sure to

keep it in a safe place since it will no longer be available from PROCENTEC.

NOTE: The information in this document version supersedes any information in the digital or printed

documentation. Although the software for Windows 98, 98 Second Edition, and Windows Me will no

longer be available, it could be that ProfiTrace 2 works with these operating systems.
