The LOYTEC Protocol Analyzer (LPA) listens on CEA-709 or CEA-852 networks and displays all recorded packets on a PC screen. Thanks to its long-time recording capability even intermittent faults can be detected and recorded. The interpretation of LNS® databases allows displaying meaningful node and network variable names. Together with L-IP Internet Routers, NIC709-IPxE100 network interfaces, the LVIS-3E100 Control and Display Panel (hardware version with RNI), and the L-INX Automation Server, the LPA software can record packets even from remote network channels.

With a single mouse-click, the built-in report function creates a report (text file) about the health condition of the investigated channel and gives hints and tips on how to solve problems on this channel.

The intuitive and easy-to-use LPA-SW software runs on all LOYTEC NIC709 interfaces. The LPA-IP-SW runs on the NIC-852 network interfaces. Each LPA-SW or LPA-IP-SW license must be registered for one LOYTEC NIC.
