摘要:
A method for communication between function modules in drive engineering is described, wherein a first function module has a first sensor interface, wherein a second function module has a second sensor interface, wherein the first sensor interface is functionally assigned to the second sensor interface, wherein the first function module is assigned to a first automation component, wherein the second function module is assigned to a second automation component, wherein an address, in particular a logical address, for the transfer of sensor data is automatically specified.

A method is disclosed for licensing software components and providing access authorization to software components and/or instantiations of software objects through sublicenses and/or value points, wherein a sublicense and/or value points are associated with each software module and/or the instantiation of a module. Access authorization is based on a comparison between acquired sublicenses/value points and the sublicenses/value points required for an machine task. Sublicenses/value points can be exchanged/traded between different machines and/or users.

The engineering of automation systems is configured more simply where the functionality of a control system is implemented via an object model. The object model permits the functional interconnection of technological objects. For this purpose, a project browser ensures the display of the interplay of all the components involved in an application in their mutual relationships.
摘要:
A method and system for controlling an industrial controller based on technology objects are disclosed. Technology object types may be loaded and instantiated into the run time system of a controller, thereby increasing the functionality and providing technological scaling of the controller. Technology object types may be loaded in the form of technology packages and a user may use the functionality of the invention directly in a user program.
摘要:
The parameterization information needed in a universal motion controller UMC (description of system variables, alarms, and commands) is generated from a uniform description language via a central converter (U) and distributed to the engineering system (ES1-ES4), run time system (RTS1-RTS4), and output media (AM) for documentation. This ensures the consistency of parameterization data for all system parts. In addition, configuration information (FWK) from technology packets (TP) can be imported into the engineering (ES1-ES4) and run time RTS1-RTS4) systems of the controller.

摘要:
In order to simplify the HMI design of HMI surfaces for operating and observing automation components with the aid of an HMI unit, HMI data are derived directly from the engineering process. The generation of relevant HMI data is therefore integrated in the operation for commissioning, designing and programming an automation component such that HMI information is also generated by simple operating actions or in an automated fashion in normal engineering.
摘要:
There is described an engineering systems and generating projects. The projects are used by runtime systems for the control of device and machine modular arrangements. The projects are not completely unmodifiable, instead an individualization layer is provided: particular data input possibilities for base data used by the runtime system are provided with an attribute, which gives whether the data entry in the project shall be unmodifiable or whether said entry may be optionally modifiable by the runtime system. A change is correspondingly optionally carried out with the runtime system. The actual core of the project, however does not need to be re-programmed such that a reversion to the engineering system is not necessary.

Mechanisms for operating an industrial controller (S) equipped with a runtime system (RTS), in particular for production machines, which enable a user to wait in the program flow for any desired condition are provided, the program flow being immediately continued when the condition is satisfied and the program flow being stopped when the condition is not satisfied, until it is established that the condition has been satisfied, the priority of the checking for the condition being increased in comparison with the current task priority while waiting for the condition to be satisfied. When the condition has been satisfied, a defined program sequence is processed with high priority up to an explicit end, the old task priority being resumed after the explicit end of the program sequence.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an automation system in which a functionality of at least two components from a programmable logic controller which can be regulated as required and/or from a drive controller which regulates rotation speed and/or position, and/or from a motion controller which regulates complex operations is integrated. The integrated controller constructed in this way can additionally have a single processor equipped with every functionality, further specific interfaces incorporation of engineering system and runtime system (RS) into the integrated controller, a web server functionality, a project data configuration using a single control action and an integrated, extensive data management unit (DM).
