The COM PROFINET IO / Modbus TCP module adds a new level of high speed, secure
communications to the WL Breaker product family. The functionality and data structure of the
COM is based on the COM/COM module and is compatible with all WL with CubicleBUS
support. The COM is therefore suitable for the modernization and expansions of plants as well.
By utilizing Siemens powerconfig software, the COM can be quickly configured for use. Once
configured, the COM is the gateway to the breaker itself and can be used locally or remotely to
configure trip unit parameters, downloading metering data, event logs, and waveforms using the
powerconfig software. The latest version of powerconfig software is always available here:

register to download.
Powerconfig can be used without the need for a network hub or switch to configure the
parameters for one breaker on a : basis. It can also be used across a network to check breaker
status or change breaker parameters. Powerconfig is not a replacement for a SCADA or energy
monitoring system such as WinPM.net but rather a compliment to it. Powerconfig can be used to
check breaker data while the other systems go about their business over the network. It can be
used on a network with Modbus TCP and PROFINET IO traffic simultaneously.
