The Profibus and Profinet communication protocols seem made for each other - which is not at all surprising, since good relationships are built on communication and having a lot in common.

It is therefore easy to move from one protocol to the other. Read More.
Profisafe, Considerations for Functional Safety and Security
This presentation will first explain why functional safety is important for modern control systems and industrial equipment, and then how Profisafe can be used in delivering functional safety. It will also briefly discuss the requirements for IT security in modern controls and how this can impact and affect decisions made for functional safety. Read More.
Profinet Workshop
Do you want to go beyond reading about Profinet and have a go at using it? This workshop will give you practical experience on a live Profinet system and give you the opportunity to use the latest configuration and analysis tools from several manufacturers.
