11.14 Profibus® Function Finder
Function Finder is a way of searching for variables and device functions in the online device. In
complex devices with multiple menus, this allows the user to navigate without a manual, greatly
simplifying the online experience, even with an unfamiliar device.
The system requires the input of the name of the variable concerned (or part thereof) and the
results show all variables that match the search. Navigation to the variable is just a single click in
the search results. To start a search, proceed as follows in the online or offline device view:
1. Select the search icon from the Profibus® toolbar.
2. In “Name” field enter the text you wish to search for in the online device. Select return in the
keyboard view followed by the Search button to initiate the search.
3. From the list of results, select the parameter that is required. Note that the variable name and
the folder it relates to, is displayed.
