Abstract: A data aggregation system comprises an aggregation server. The aggregation server receives a remote request for a viewing session from a plurality of communication devices over a communication network. In response to the remote request, the aggregation server transfers a first data request to a Human-Machine Interface (HMI) for graphics data comprising a graphical representation of a portion of an industrial automation environment over an enterprise network. In response to the remote request, the aggregation server transfers a second data request to an operation data source for operation data associated with an operation of the industrial automation environment over the enterprise network. In response to the first data request, the aggregation server receives the graphics data from the HMI. In response to the second data request, the aggregation server receives the operation data from the operation data source. The aggregation server transfers the graphics data over the communication network to the plurality of communication devices, and transfers the operation data over the communication network to the plurality of communication devices.

Abstract: A scheduling computer receives a plurality of schedules that contain times that a new or different version of a software program will be available, times that one or more machines controlled or monitored by automation computers will be inactive, and times that a necessary resource will be available. The scheduling computer then compares these schedules to determine the time or times when it will be advantageous to install software on the automation computer(s). The scheduling computer then displays these times or time so that software may be installed on the automation computer without disrupting the manufacturing process or inefficiently halting a machine performing a manufacturing step or so that software may be installed on more than one automation computer at substantially the same time.

Abstract: A human-machine-interface (HMI) system comprises a machine interface, a communication interface, and a processing system. The machine interface receives operation data from a plurality of machines within an industrial automation environment, wherein the operation data corresponds to operations of the plurality of machines. The communication interface receives a request for a remote viewing session from a communication device, and in response to the request, transfers graphics data and the operation data for delivery to and display by the communication device. The processing system monitors for changes to the graphics data and the operation data during the remote viewing session. The communication, upon a change occurring to the graphics data, transfers updated graphics data for delivery to and display by the communication device, and upon a change occurring to the operation data, transfers updated operation data for delivery to and display by the communication device.
