Introduction Manual

1 Introduction

1.1 General

The PROFI-TM Professional is a powerful tool that allows full testing of

PROFIBUS DP segments. The tool reliably detects even transient faults that

occur only sporadically.

Using the integrated master simulator, you can also test the bus if the PLC is

currently not in operation, or individually check “suspicious” bus stations.

The tool is powered either through an external AC adapter, by direct connec-

tion to 24 VDC or through an optional portable power supply unit.

1.2 Test Functions

The PROFI-TM Professional automatically detects the baud rate or open

circuit voltage as soon as you connect it to a PROFIBUS DP segment. The

following standard tests are available for simultaneously analyzing the bus

physics and bus communication:

•Quick test

•User-controlled test

•Long-term trend

Additional features (network status):

•Master simulator

•Topology scan

Expert tests (optional):

•Frame analysis

•Oscillogram analysis

•Trigger input/output

1.3 Operating Modes of the Tool

You can connect the PROFI-TM Professional to a PC or notebook, or run it in

stand-alone mode. The PC mode provides all standard and expert tests. You

can also select individual stations you want to test. The stand-alone mode

currently provides the live status and the master simulator mode. In addition,

for the future it is planned to make available the quick test and long-term trend

functions as well as the transfer of test results to the PC.

3 Optional Accessories

3.1 D-sub adapter cable for testing live systems

This D-sub adapter cable (BC-600-PB-CB-DSUB-1) is optimized for reduced

influence on live PROFIBUS DP segment operations. Thereby it is most

suitable for testing of running plants. The risc of critical influences on bus

operation which can cause a plant standstill is significantly reduced. Attention:

Using this cable it is not possible to use the both active functions master

simulator and topology detection (see page 22).

3.3 Fieldbus Shield Digital Leakage Current Clamp

When routing PROFIBUS cables in high-interference environments, electro-

magnetic interference can affect the signal quality. By measuring the shield

currents with the digital leakage current clamp, you can locate EMC problem

areas and take appropriate countermeasures. The digital leakage current

3.5 Active Measuring Point „PBMA“ IP20 – Active Terminator

The “PBMA” provides a PROFIBUS access point for testing if the existing D-

sub connectors have no service socket or if the bus stations are connected via

a terminal block. The service interface can power the terminating resistor of

the D-sub connector. You can thus use it as an active bus termination at the

beginning or end of the bus.

If the PLC allows dropping and adding bus stations on the live bus, you will

need this external bus termination to be able to exchange the first and last bus

stations without causing problems on the bus.

The compact unit is rail mounted like a terminal block and powered by an

external 24 VDC power supply. The package includes a 90° angled

PROFIBUS connector with a switchable terminating resistor.

3.5. Active Measuring Point „PBMX“ IP67 – Active Terminator

The M12-Measuring adapter „PBMX“ is used for creating an active measuring

point at safety class IP67 with voltage providing for a terminator.

The PBMX-set contains additionally a M12 power cable, a one side manufac-

tured bus cable, a M12 bus terminator and a M12 end cup for the measure-

ment tool connector.

Power Supply and Auto Power On Manual

5 Power Supply and Auto Power On

The tool is powered with 24 VDC either through the external AC adapter or by

using the single-ended cable for direct 24 VDC power supply. Both are in-

cluded in delivery.

Attention: Before being connected to the AC mains power, the

PROFI-TM Professional and the AC adapter must be acclimated to

room temperature to avoid condensation. This may take up to 60

minutes.

The tool switches on automatically when you connect it to a power supply. The

display lights up and self-test starts.

Attention: When the tool is connected directly to 24 VDC, there is no

galvanic isolation to the external power supply. Insufficient potential

equalization between the power supply and the PROFIBUS will lead

to equalizing currents which can falsify the test results and, in the

worst case, even destroy the PROFI-TM Professional and part of the

bus installation. In these cases, use of the supplied AC adapter is

mandatory for operating the PROFI-TM Professional.

5.1 Power-Up Behavior without USB Connection

The PROFI-TM Professional starts up in stand-alone mode in this case (see

page 26) and is immediately ready for testing.

5.2 Power-Up Behavior when USB Connected

Attention: The “PROFIBUS Diagnostics Suite” PC software also

includes the required USB driver. You therefore need to install the

software first before connecting the test tool to the PC or notebook.

On successful completion of the self-test, the PROFI-TM Professional dis-

plays:

Fig. 7: Power-up display when USB connected

When you start the PROFIBUS Diagnostics Suite control and evaluation

software on your computer and select the PROFI-TM Professional and a

network for testing in its user interface, the test tool switches to PC mode. The

display shows:

Abb. 8: Display at testing with PC software

While in PC mode, you can only display readings and operate the tool by using

the control and evaluation software on the computer.

At this point, you can also start a firmware update instead of using the control

and evaluation software. See page 32.

Software Installation Manual

6 Software Installation

The “PROFIBUS Diagnostics Suite” PC software is provided on the included

CD-ROM. You need administrator privileges to install the software. If the CD-

ROM does not start automatically when inserted, please run the “start.exe” file

in the main directory.

Future updates can be downloaded from our web site at www.indu-sol.com in

the section DOWNLOADS.

Attention: The “PROFIBUS Diagnostic Suite” PC software also

includes the required USB driver. You therefore need to install the

software first before connecting the test tool to the PC or notebook.

The installation and basic use of the PC software is described in the separate

PROFIBUS Diagnostics Suite – Getting Started manual.

6.1 Connection to a PC

Use the included USB cable to connect the tool to a PC or notebook. Power is

also supplied from the USB interface.

Attention: It is recommended to connect the unit directly to a USB

port on the PC or notebook. When you use external USB hubs or

notebook docking stations for connection, problems can occur.

7 Connection to PROFIBUS

7.1 Basics

7.1.1 Warning notice for testing a live bus

Attention: When you connect a test tool, side effects on the system

under test are generally unavoidable. The optional deliverable D-sub

adapter cable 1 has been optimized to allow tests on live installations

with minimum side effects. If the PROFIBUS is already disturbed to a

certain degree or if Simatic Diagnostic Repeaters are used, the oper-

ation of the PROFIBUS might nevertheless be affected occasionally.

Compliance with the connection notes is mandatory!

Connection to PROFIBUS Manual

Indu-Sol GmbH Page 17

7.1.2 Connection types

There are several ways to connect a bus station to a PROFIBUS network:

•Using connectors

oD-sub connectors, most of which have an integrated terminating

resistor and, optionally, an additional service socket

oM12 connectors for environments requiring increased IP ratings

oSpecial vendor-specific hybrid connectors; they are used in com-

bination with special cables to supply power via the bus

•Using terminals for direct connection

Due to the typical daisy-chain topology, the connection points of the bus

stations are the only possible points for connecting the test tool in most cases.

7.1.3 Adapter cable

The PROFI-TM Professional is supplied with the D-sub adapter cable 2 and is

required for using the master simulator and the topology scan feature (see

page 23). The short D-sub adapter cable 1 (purple, optional deliverable) allows

connection to a live PROFIBUS with minimum influence on bus operation. An

M12 adapter set is optionally available.

Attention: Use only the short original cables with special pin layout to

connect the unit to a PROFIBUS network. Do not cascade more than

two D-sub connectors with service sockets at the same time:

Fig. 9: Unallowed cascading of D-sub connectors

Active connection cables with integrated repeaters cannot be used for testing.

Connection to PROFIBUS Manual

7.1.4 Strain relief

Attention: When you connect the PROFI-TM Professional, its weight

can place a high mechanical stress on the connectors and the bus

station. Ensure proper strain relief by using suitable supports, cable

ties, etc. When this is not possible, you need to select a different

connection point to avoid damage.

Fig. 10: Strain relief fittings

7.1.5 Test locations

The PROFI-TM Professional can basically carry out tests anywhere on a

physical PROFIBUS segment. Please note that the use of repeaters creates

separate physical segments that each need to be measured individually.

For the best and most informative results, perform the tests at the beginning

and end of each physical segment. If these test results indicate problems that

cannot be clearly classified right away, you should carry out one or more

additional tests at the center.

7.2 Simple Connection for Tests During System Shutdown

If all bus stations provide D-sub connectors with an additional service socket,

you can simply plug in the PROFI-TM Professional at that socket (see figure

below). If a D-sub connector does not provide a service socket, you can plug

in the D-sub adapter cable underneath. The only thing you need to keep in

mind is that you should never cascade more than two D-sub connectors.

When using M12 connection technology, the M12 adapter cable is “looped”

into the bus. It is essential to ensure proper termination at the beginning and

end of the bus by using the terminating resistor provided with the M12 adapter

set.

Attention: All these simple connection types will divide the bus. You

therefore need to shut down the PLC and all the devices connected

to the PROFIBUS; in other words, you need to shut down the whole

installation

7.3 Connection for Testing a Live Bus

To test a live PROFIBUS with the PROFI-TM Professional during operation,

appropriate connection possibilities have to be provided. If no suitable connec-

tion points are available in the existing installation, it is recommended to install

them during system shutdown. This will make future maintenance work much

easier.

Attention: When installing additional connection points, you divide the

bus. Before doing so, you therefore need to shut down the PLC and

all the devices connected to the PROFIBUS; in other words, you need

to shut down the whole installation.

Attention: For testing on live systems the optional D-sub adapter

cable with reduced influence on bus operation is highly recom-

mended! As the case may be use the D-sub adapter cable 1.
