COMbricks™ - Profibus Monitoring, - Modular Networking and Control

Reliable Industrial Profibus communication made easy, based on well-known success products as:

• 80% of ProfiTrace2 (Ultra) Profibus Troubleshooting kit,  Profibus-Monitor and Analyzer
• 300% of the Transparant ProfiHUB Multi-Channel Profibus Repeater concept made Modular with Redundant cabling option, Fiber Optic cabling option, RS485-IS (Intrinsic Safe) cabling option, ...

COMbricks™ is a modular PROFIBUS system that allows a mix of repeater modules on a backplane.
The repeaters link up all the Profibus segments, and over Ethernet, the condition of the installation can be remotely inspected with ProfiTrace OE (in a standard web browser).

• Permanent PROFIBUS monitoring with ProfiTrace and Oscilloscope.
• Modular PROFIBUS repeater backbones with HOT SWAP feature.
• Transparent PROFIBUS HUB system (Repeaters, Fiber Optic, RS485-IS (Intrinsic Safe), DP slave, and more...)

COMbricks features:

• Drives 32 modules (10 high-speed modules)
• Wide range of different modules available
• Powerful embedded web server
• ProfiTrace OE for monitoring of 4 networks
• HOT SWAP feature and extendible under power
• 35 mm DIN-rail mounting
• IP20 encapsulation

ProfiTrace OE - Remote monitoring in a web browser

Permanent and simultaneous monitoring of 4 PROFIBUS networks is a powerful feature of COMbricks. Global projects and a shortage of (qualified) technical staff members are causing significant capacity problems. COMbricks offers a solution by remotely monitoring PROFIBUS installations over the Internet and alerting the user by email.

A web server with a ProfiTrace shell visualises information in an understandable format (ProfiTrace OE). Because of the web browser, additional software is NOT required and a constant connection with a PC to the COMbricks is NOT necessary.

The monitoring and logging is performed by the repeater modules which are inserted in the backplane. COMbricks is the first system that has integrated the busmonitor in the network components. Deploying COMbricks repeaters for regular automation means an automatic availability of ProfiTrace OE.

E-mail messages provide real-time alerts should malfunctions be detected in the PROFIBUS installation. These can be easily set up through the web server.

A brand new functionality within ProfiTrace OE is the device location detection. It gives a detailed overview of on which repeater segment the devices are installed.

• Cross border installations
• Inaccessible installations
• Long commissioning and test cycles
• High availability networks
• Robot cells

The current trend with PROFIBUS projects is to use segmentation with repeaters, fiber optic and ProfiHubs to overcome common problems for the end-user concerning his cabling difficulties.

COMbricks adds another important element; the creation of modular and random repeater hubs that can be maintained remotely with a permanent internal ProfiTrace.

COMbricks is based on a backplane into which 10 hot swap repeater modules with 2 channels each can be inserted (20 galvanic isolated transparent segments). Every channel can handle 31 devices and maximum 1200 m cable length (depends on the baudrate).

The bus redundancy technology of the repeater modules is very advanced. A redundant system with 10 parallel network cables can be built. This architecture provides extremely high availability. Most suppliers only allow 2 cables.
