Abstract: A system of communicating data over a high availability industrial control system is disclosed. The industrial control system includes a first data producer, a second data producer in communicative connection with the first data producer, a first data consumer, and a second data consumer in communicative connection with the first data consumer. The system further includes the first producer communicating the data over multiple connection paths from the first producer to the first consumer and the second consumer through intermediate modules, and the second producer communicating the data over multiple connection paths from the second producer to the first consumer and the second consumer through intermediate modules. Also disclosed is a method of communicating data over the high availability industrial control system.

Abstract: An improved system for handling events in an industrial control system is disclosed. A module in an industrial controller is configured to generate an event responsive to a predefined signal or combination of signals occurring. The event is transferred to an event queue for subsequent execution. The event queue may also be configured to store a copy of the state of the module at the time the event is generated. The event queue may hold multiple events and each event is configured to trigger at least one event task. Subsequent events that occur during execution of the event task are stored in the event queue for later execution. An event, or combination of events, may trigger execution of an event task within the module, within the controller to which the module is connected, or within multiple controllers.

Abstract translation: 公开了一种用于处理工业控制系统中的事件的改进系统。 工业控制器中的模块被配置为响应于预定义的信号或发生的信号的组合来生成事件。 事件被传送到事件队列以供后续执行。 事件队列还可以被配置为在生成事件时存储模块的状态的副本。 事件队列可以保存多个事件，并且每个事件被配置为触发至少一个事件任务。 在执行事件任务期间发生的后续事件存储在事件队列中，以供以后执行。 事件或事件的组合可以触发模块内的事件任务的执行，模块连接到的控制器内或在多个控制器内。
