March 31, 2011 – Trebing + Himstedt announced TH SCOPE diagnostic software. TH SCOPE enables users to replace multiple complex diagnostic tools with one, easy-to-use solution. The software displays diagnostics for PROFIBUS, PROFINET, and other Industrial Ethernet protocols, through the combination of the web-based software tool the TH SCOPE and the network access point the TH LINK. The diagnostic data collected by the TH SCOPE can be easily displayed in any device that has internet capabilities. The data can easily be viewed on any Laptop, Tablet, or Smartphone, and the TH SCOPE’s automatic email alerts ensure a rapid delivery of system malfunctions when they occur.
With the TH SCOPE end-users can access the status of all networks and diagnostics information, both centrally and remotely. The network quality is evaluated using different parameters, and is clearly displayed in a user-friendly graphical interface which permits critical network alerts to be identified at a glance. This unified diagnostic view, combined with cross-protocol diagnostic functions, has been proven in Europe to greatly reduce systems monitoring costs in all system life cycle phases. TH SCOPE data is not limited to one level of operator access. The diagnostic information can easily be exported to higher-level applications such as: Historians, ERP systems, Asset Management Systems, Process Control Systems, and even Microsoft Office applications like Microsoft Excel.
This is all possible via TH SCOPE’s built in OPC connectivity which is fully compliant with the latest OPC Foundation standards. Any existing plant systems with OPC Connectivity can effortlessly connect to the TH SCOPE and enable the flow of diagnostic directly from the plant floor right to the boardroom for more effective business decisions.
Key Features of the TH SCOPE:
- Easily receive diagnostics from PROFIBUS, PROFIBUS PA, PROFINET, and other Industrial Ethernet protocols through one application with no programming required.
- Effortlessly track inventory and logistics with real-time alerts.
- Receive email alerts about system status directly to your PC, laptop, tablet, or Smartphone.
- Export data to other business applications through a built-in OPC Server.
- Empowers end-users with the freedom to build and monitor best-of-breed systems
