TIA Portal Diagnostics Tutorial - Software and Hardware Integrated Tools - Step 1

Welcome to Part 1 of our series on TIA Portal Diagnostics! In this video, we identify many useful diagnostic options within TIA Portal and its programmable products. Diagnostics in automation technology are crucial for minimizing downtimes by providing comprehensive diagnostic information across devices, modules, and networks.

We cover the automation task of monitoring a PROFINET IO peripheral system, focusing on:

Configuration and setting possibilities of devices and modules
Evaluation and display of diagnostic data in the engineering tool and directly in the controller
Display of diagnostic data on an operating panel and via website access
Diagnostics of the network topology
Consistency of system diagnostics
Next in Part 2, we'll show you the Simatic options for user-defined alarms and how TIA Portal can centrally manage all alarms. Be sure to check it out!
