BradCommunications eNetMeter DN monitors real-time network health, and sends information over Ethernet to PLC or PC monitoring system. Data can be read directly by EtherNet/IP master, or can be accessed through DLL interface or OPC server. By comparing measurement of hundreds of network parameters to acceptable base measurements of "good" network, current faults on nonfunctioning network can be diagnosed. Information can be stored to historian software for future analysis.
