Smarter Industrial Troubleshooting

 

Effortlessly see inside your PLC control system to troubleshoot issues without Rockwell programming software.  Don't hassle with transferring licenses or cumbersome license dongles, all you need is an Ethernet cable and a computer running Trend Insight to monitor the inner workings of your control system!

Track any tags in your Control/Compact/MicroLogix PLCs on any Windows PC.  This troubleshooting tool allows you to log tag values for a nearly unlimited number of tags in your industrial control system without taking up valuable PLC processing time.  This approach enables Trend Insight to poll tags as fast as every 10ms, and avoids the tag and duration limits normally incurred by the use of conventional PLC trending.  Additionally, Trend Insight surpasses standard Rockwell trending capabilities with an advanced interface for analyzing data as well as allowing simple exportation of data in a format accessible by most data analytic software or directly to Excel.
