摘要:
In an industrial control system, a relatively large number of bindings can permeate between different controllers. As a modification is made in a primary binding, supplemental bindings can be impacted and can become erroneous. The supplemental bindings can be automatically resolved such that they are no longer erroneous. Resolution can take place through access of a distributed directory that holds information related to the different controllers. To lower a likelihood of control system error or failure, the primary binding and supplemental binding can be placed online in synchronization.

An automation control and monitoring system is provided that includes a common framework for components of the control and monitoring system through a resource oriented architecture (ROA). The ROA may enable enhanced scalability and distribution within the control and monitoring system. Further, the framework may provide a base set of functionalities to be implemented across components of the control and monitoring system, creating vertical scalability.
摘要:
A process controller comprising a procedure module that includes instructions for executing a procedure, and a plurality of supplemental procedure modules, each of which includes instructions for executing one of a plurality of supplemental procedures. The process controller also includes a process monitor processor configured to receive an input electronic signal indicative of a status of a process feature, apply logic based on the input electronic signal, and generate an output electronic signal in response to the input electronic signal. The process controller also includes a sequence engine processor configured to execute the procedure, receive the output electronic signal, apply logic based on the output electronic signal, select one or more of the plurality of supplemental procedures based on the received output electronic signal, and execute the selected one or more of the plurality of supplemental procedures.

摘要:
An industrial automation device includes a receiver component that receives a request for structured data retained within the industrial controller. A location component that locates metadata associated with the requested structured data and transmits the data to a requesting entity. For example, the industrial automation device can be an industrial controller, a proxy device, a type library, etc.
摘要:
A search component for an industrial automation system is provided. The search component includes one or more modules that employ resources and logic to expose functionality of the modules while providing generic interfaces to external components of the modules. A classification component assigns attributes to the modules to facilitate a search of the modules.
摘要:
An organizational model of a hierarchical system can be distributed across various elements of an enterprise. Such elements include representations of the system that are maintained on higher-level business servers and other representations that serve control elements of the system such as programmable logic controllers and/or other industrial control components. In one aspect, an industrial automation system is provided. The system includes at least one controller to instantiate a portion of an organizational hierarchy. A communications component in the controller interacts with at least one other portion of the organizational hierarchy to facilitate data exchange and control between various components of an enterprise.
摘要:
The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or method that facilitates utilizing metadata appended to data related to an industrial automation environment with a controller that is associated with a hierarchically structured data model. An interface component can facilitate receipt of data associated with at least one of an instruction set, a configuration, and a collection. An append component can affix metadata to at least one of the instruction set, the configuration, and the collection, wherein the metadata conforms to a hierarchically structured data model.
