摘要:
A method for adjusting an electric field device in order to simplify its operation includes the following steps: an electronic control unit of the field device identifies an external data storage module that is connected to the field device; the electronic control unit reads personal data allocated to a user of the data storage module out of the external data storage module; the electronic control unit makes adjustments on the field device based on the personal data that has been read.

The invention facilitates the creation of a control software for a data processing device of a specific automation system. The method generates a structure representation, describing a specific automation system, from a model structure representation which describes a general automation system. The model structure representation includes a structured representation of functional groups of the general automation system and the interconnections thereof and each functional group can be associated with one or several components of the specific automation system. The method includes the following steps:—preparation of a text file, reproducing the model structure representation, for a data processing device which controls the specific automation system,—determination of the components of said specific automation system, which can be associated together with a functional group of the model structure representation, by the data processing device and—entry of the determined components into the model structure representation with generation of the structure representation, describing the specific automation system.
摘要:
A method for exchanging data between a communications unit and a data source of a control system, during which a runtime system comprised of hardware components and software components transfers data between the data source and a communications unit, and a processing chain controls and/or monitors the exchange of data. The process can be modified easily and without interrupting the runtime system. To this end, the invention provides that the processing chain is composed of processing routines, which each have a uniform input interface, whereby the processing routines are called up in succession, and the data of a called up processing routine are fed to the input interface of an immediately subsequent processing routine. In addition, the runtime system manages a dynamic storage area and accesses this storage area in order to establish the sequence with which the processing routines are called up.

The invention relates to a directory service that simplifies the provision of information within an automation system. The directory service serves to provide information regarding access possibilities, functionalities, interfaces and topologies of components of the automation system and is Web service-based.

The invention relates to a system and a method for preparing a standardised functionality which is independent form the type of appliance and is used to create a solution in the field of automation. The specific properties and functions of different automation systems are directly covered or generalised on respective appliances by a system-specific adapter, the automation runtime layer. Another component implemented on the respective appliance, the runtime framework, provides a general automation functionality and/or base functionality. The automation solution can thus be created in a standardised manner on an engineering system, and randomly ported independently from the respective target platform. Uniform object libraries can be used and already created solutions can be recycled independently from the system.

A method for visual display unit-based parameterization of interfaces of the software components of an automation system, the interface being a software interfaces having at least one interface parameter. The interface parameter is further characterized by at least one attribute. A display window is provided which can be divided horizontally or vertically, the hierarchical structure of the interface parameters of the respective software components of the automation system, which parameters can be selected using a movable cursor, being displayed in a first partial window, and the at least one attribute of the selected interface parameter being displayed in a second partial window.

A method configures field devices with confidence against incorrect settings. A graphics editor has a first display area, which contains a graphics display of functions of a first field device, and a second display area which contains a graphics display of a further field device which is connected to the first field device and displays indications of possible output signals. A selection by a user of an output signal from the further field device and of a function of the first field device is detected. Parameter sets are produced which contain instructions for configuring a communication link of the first field device and of the further field device which, when a selected output signal is present for the further field device, indicate that a data message has been sent to the first field device and that the selected function of the first field device has been initiated.

摘要:
A method configures an energy automation device and can be carried out more easily and more quickly and also with comparatively less susceptibility to errors. A system circuit diagram of a substation of an electrical power grid is generated by a configuration computer. The system circuit diagram is configured to be displayed by a display device of the configuration computer and contains component depictions that are graphic representations of primary devices of the substation. The system circuit diagram contains connections between the component depictions that are graphic representations of the electrical links between the primary devices. A selection of a sub-region of the system circuit diagram which is made by a user of the configuration computer is detected, and the selected sub-region of the circuit diagram is converted into a display configuration file suitable for a display device of the energy automation device.
