MSB-RS485 PLUS Analyzer - Universal PC-based RS422 / 485 fieldbus analyzer with tristate bus detection and data direction decoding, 10-nanosecond time resolution

RS422 / 485 fieldbus protocol analyzer
Equipped with a multitude of visualization tools, the analyzer allows a detailed view of each transmission level in an RS422 / 485 communication. It detects errors originating from incorrect data formats, invalid timings, incorrect byte or telegram spacing, or incorrect telegram content and/or checksums.

With its interactive real-time analysis capability, it is the recommended tool for protocol development, troubleshooting, protocol adaptation, and instruction/training (protocol operation).

## Special Features

- 200 MHz sampling rate
- PC-independent time resolution of 10 nanoseconds for very fast transmissions and time-critical protocols.
- Highly versatile in use from ready-made protocol templates for 3964 (R), Modbus, Profibus, DNP3, IEC60870 and many others ...
- Analysis of individual and proprietary protocols using custom protocol templates.
- OSI layer-based visualization of signal levels (tri-state), raw data, and telegrams
- Two independent working decoding units to analyze two buses with different transmission characteristics.
- Asynchronous transmissions with any baud rate from 1 ... 20 MBaud and 5-9 bit data words.
- Multiple connection modes allow full logging of all bus activities and intentional logging of data sent by selected bus participants.
- Scriptable by connecting command-line tools (e.g., long-term recording and special event triggering).
- Prepared for synchronous transmissions (CAN bus, Manchester Coding)
