Intervention service, diagnostics and fault location
The reasons for many errors occurring in PROFIBUS DP networks (based on the RS 485 standard) are: sloppiness, lack of basic knowledge and design errors occurring even at the time of bus commissioning, which may not become apparent until several years after the first commissioning of the network. Green lights on LEDs indicating the status of data exchange do not necessarily mean that the network is working without errors. Occasional erroneous telegrams or repetitions of transmission do not cause disturbances in the functioning of the network due to the implemented functions. Unfortunately, without specialized analyzers and diagnostic devices, it is impossible to find out about the errors mentioned above, which will gradually increase until the communication stops, which will have consequences in interrupting production and at the same time start generating losses in the tens of thousands, and in extreme cases even in hundreds of thousands of zlotys. When a failure occurs, the problem is that the fault location is very often located in a completely different place than the devices displaying the errors. Our experts have the knowledge and skills that translate into minimizing the time of error detection and removal.
