Asset Management Access Point for PROFINET networks
Manage PROFINET and PROFIBUS devices with standard Asset Management Tools
smartLink HW-PN provides controller independent access to PROFINET networks. It can be used with standard industry tools for asset management, device configuration and monitoring. smartLink HW-PN provides transparent access to connected PROFINET and PROFIBUS devices.
Overview
Plant Asset Management and Parameterization using Standard Industry Tools
- Independent from PROFINET engineering tools
- Centralized and time-saving asset management of PROFINET networks with PROFINET and PROFIBUS field devices directly from the control room
- Access from Plant Asset Management applications for field devices based on the FDI standard
Ethernet Access Point to PROFINET networks
- Provides 2nd channel to access the field devices
- Acts as a PROFINET supervisor
- Is part of one PROFINET network
- Integrated 2-port switch for use in line network topologies
Key Component for Transition to State-of-the-Art Technology
- Re-use of existing PROFINET networks without requiring modification
- Access to acyclic data via FDI communication server (OPC UA)
