How is the connection to be made, if only participants
with PG screwing resp. screw terminals are connected to
the bus?
Should these participants be placed at both bus ends, the
user must provide an additional D-SUB connector for test
purposes. COMSOFT will soon offer a spring clip
terminal block as accessory for the one core connection.
Please ask our sales department for availability.

Can
NetTEST II
detect double allocated PROFIBUS DP
Slave addresses?
No, sorry, in the current version this is not possible. We
are working on a clear detection of such errors.
•
Is it possible to implement in
NetTEST II
a PROFIBUS
bus monitor for monitoring the telegram traffic on the
bus?
No. For monitoring telegrams, neither the screen
possibilities nor the memory are sufficient.
•
Can
NetTEST II
also perform further test functions, e.g.
parameterization and configuration of a Slave ?
Yes, parameterization and configuration of a PROFIBUS
DP Slave is possible with the DP Master Option. With this
option it is also possible to line-up a DP Slave. If a
DPSlave supports the Set_Slave_Addr Service, the
address of the DP Slave can be changed.
