THLink Profinet

PROFINET Diagnostics Independent from Controller and Control Room

The TH LINK PROFINET diagnostics tool makes use of a controller-independent access to monitor PROFINET networks. The diagnostic data is collected in networks comprising up to 254 nodes, and made available to users through the TH SCOPE software application. TH LINK PROFINET is easy to use and can be integrated without interfering with the operation of existing installations.

Overview

Independent Access to PROFINET Network

  • Controller-independent
  • Independent of configuration tools
  • Only one tool needed to monitor multiple IP subnetworks (up to 254 nodes, one or more controllers)

Designed for Installation without Interference with Plant Operation

  • Connection to free port in PROFINET network, also possible during operation of the plant
  • No need to install TAPs or use mirror ports
  • Highest security (separate accesses for control room level and plant level, no routing)
  • Easy integration into existing plants thanks to compact design

Powerful Data Collection Capabilities Optimized for PROFINET

  • Collection from PROFINET devices and other nodes (e.g. PCs or camera systems)
  • PROFINET supervisor in PROFINET networks
  • Network load limit according to PROFINET guidelines

Optimized for Use by Maintenance Engineers

  • Suitable for network acceptance testing, continuous monitoring and troubleshooting
  • Easy and intuitive handling and operation
  • Fault identification with intelligent troubleshooting assistance
  • Seamless integration with TH SCOPE diagnostics software

Wiki

TH LINK:
enablement of the following ports:

  • HTTP Protocol:      80 TCP
  • Firmware update: 1100 TCP
  • communication with each other:    1123, 1124, 2364 UDP
  • communication with TH SCOPE via Multicast:  2364 UDP
  • communication with TH SCOPE via Unicast:    1151, 2365 UDP

There must be no firewall between the TH LINK and the PROFINET and/or EtherNet/IP devices.

TH SCOPE:
If your network is protected by a second firewall in addition to the Windows firewall, make sure that the following settings are made to allow TH SCOPE services to communicate properly.

  • Enabling of HTTP port 80 – inbound and outbound
  • Enabling of SNMP port 161 inbound or port 2367 (if port 161 is used by another SNMP agent).
  • Enabling of IP 224.0.5.128 port 2364 UDP outbound
  • Enabling of UDP ports 2365 outbound and 2366 inbound

 

The following ports are used by TH SCOPE for internal communication only:

  • Port 22
  • Port 80
  • Port 1100
  • Ports 1123 – 1151
  • Port 1500
  • Port 1501
  • Ports 2363 – 2366
  • Ports 49152 – 49171
