Software

ProfiCoach software is available at no cost. The ProfiCoach software is one of the fastest ways to connect to a DP network and ensure that it is operating correctly.

ProfiCoach, along with a communications processor (CP) card on the PC, controls the PROFIBUS network as a class 1 master.
With ProfiCoach you can view inputs, manually update outputs, and view device diagnostics. ProfiCoach is the successor to the popular DPDemo software. For more information read the article in the June 2001 Connection newsletter.

ProfiCoach can also do Reads and Writes to a PROFIBUS slave that supports the DP-V1 protocol.

ProfiCoach V1.3 now supports the CP 5512 card.
