iPNMA
With Integrated Diagnostics Function
The intelligent PROFINET test access point (TAP) iPNMA combines the capabilities of a PROFINET measuring point with simple PROFINET network analysis. It monitors up to 256 devices and determines key PROFINET quality parameters. The recorded data is retrieved using the PROmanage® NT software and processed for easy evaluation.
An analysis tool (e.g., PROFINET-INspektor® NT or a laptop) can be connected nonreactively via the two monitor jacks for in-depth network analysis or troubleshooting.
