Abstract: A method, item communication arrangement and a computer program product communicate items representing process control objects to a user of a wireless terminal in a process control system. The arrangement includes an item communication control unit providing the items representing process control objects and configured to continuously determine weights of the items and visually communicate items to the user via the wireless terminal in an order defined by the weights of the items. The weight of an item is determined based on an item selection pattern of the user.

Abstract: A method, presentation control arrangement and a computer program product enables a user of a process control system to obtain details of a process control object. Distances between a mobile terminal of the user and process control objects in an area around the mobile terminal are determined as well as the closest process control object to the mobile terminal, process data of this object is obtained and presented together with a representation of the object on a display of the mobile terminal, where the representation of the closest process control object is emphasized compared with the presentation of other process control objects and the amount of process data being presented is dependent on the distance between the mobile terminal and the process control object.

Abstract: A method of monitoring an industrial process by means of an ear protection system having an ear protection unit with a left speaker and a right speaker includes obtaining a direction from which a sound is to be provided based on an angle between a coordinate system defined by the ear protection unit and a coordinate system defined by an industrial process environment of the industrial process, and on a location of the origin of the coordinate system of the ear protection unit in the coordinate system of the industrial process environment relative a location of an industrial process component in the coordinate system of the industrial process environment; obtaining real-time process variable data relating to at least one process variable of the industrial process component; and providing a 3-d sound that simulates an origination from the direction by means of at least one of the left speaker and the right speaker, which 3-d sound is indicative of a state of the industrial process component, wherein the 3-d sound simulates a realistic sound of the at least one process variable, reflecting a real-time state of the at least one process variable. An ear protection system carrying out the method is also presented herein.

Abstract: A method, video control arrangement and a computer program product are provided for determining objects present in a process control system. The video control arrangement includes an object determining unit configured to order a group of video cameras, including at least one video camera, to repeatedly scan an area in order to obtain a set of video streams, determine if there are any new objects associated with the process control system in the area through detecting object identifiers of objects in the video streams, determine if a detected new object is stationary or mobile, report the detected object to a process control server and register stationary objects as process control objects.
