Analyzer IE & Analyzer PRO

Troubleshooting and acceptance testing for Industrial Ethernet networks

Analyzer IE and Analyzer PRO are software products for mobile diagnostics of Industrial Ethernet networks, in particular PROFINET. End customers, plant manufacturers, system integrators and independent service providers use the product for network commissioning and acceptance testing, for plant documentation, and for trouble shooting in case of network problems. The product supports easy and efficient exchange of information ? e.g. firmware white lists ? between involved parties.

As an enhanced version of the commissioning and diagnostics tool Analyzer IE, Analyzer PRO includes a TAP (Terminal Access Point) device called ?profiTap?. profiTap records network communication such as jitter, load ratio and device update rate. These so-called passive parameters cannot be determined via actively communicating to devices. With the help of profiTap, all packets traveling to and from the controller are analyzed and network communication is recorded. Eventually, the parameters are integrated in the acceptance report and add an additional layer of information which provides more detailed insights into the PROFINET network.
