Software for process diagnostics
In an automated plant 80 % of faults during operation are process
faults. Your diagnostics are plant-specific and cannot therefore be
integrated into the controller hardware or firmware. Instead, this must
be programmed. To keep related costs low, the use of diagnostics tools
is recommended.
Process diagnostics support maintenance personnel with troubleshooting
and fault avoidance:
| SIMATIC S7-GRAPH |
|
S7-GRAPH the STEP7 Tool for programming sequential controls also offers
test and diagnostics functions. |
| SIMATIC S7-PDIAG |
| S7-PDIAG supports the configuring of process
diagnostics for SIMATIC with the LAD, FBD or IL programming languages. |
| SIMATIC ProAgent |
|
ProAgent is a runtime option for visualizing process diagnostics information on an HMI
device available for WinCC and WinCC flexible. |
