摘要:
A method for selecting a communication system assigned to a transmission network of an automation system, where a transmission network with a plurality of subscribers, connected to the transmission network, of one or more automation systems is displayed, or is capable of being displayed, on a display unit. The transmission network is assigned to a plurality of communication systems, where the plurality of communication systems are each designed or configured for communication over the transmission network between at least two of the subscribers connected to the transmission network. By selecting a selection area assigned to the transmission network on the display unit by a selection device, the plurality of communication systems assigned to the transmission network are displayed on the display unit. Subsequent to selection of the selection area assigned to the transmission network by the selection means, one of the displayed communication systems is then selectable by means of the selection means.

A user interface has a portal view with a first display region to display a first user selectable identifier representing a main function accomplishable within an engineering system. The portal view has a second display region to display a second user selectable identifier representing a subordinate function usable to accomplish the main function, the display of the second user selectable identifier being based on a first user selection of the first user selectable identifier. The portal view has an optional third display region to display a context-specific selection of project data, the display of the context-specific selection of the project data being based on a second user selection of the second user selectable identifier. The user interface has a project view with a fourth display region to display third user selectable identifiers. The portal view and the project view have a user selectable switching device for switching between the project view and the portal view.
摘要:
A system and a method for graphical interconnection of hardware signals of a device, (e.g., a controller device) are provided. The graphical interconnection can now be implemented in a simple manner so that a user can perform this function intuitively and without knowledge of the address convention used in the engineering system. This may be achieved by the inventive system and by the inventive method by the hardware signals being interconnected graphically with program elements of a programming environment using drag & drop features in a graphical user interface.
