摘要： The present invention constitutes a data crossloading system for use with a programmable controller system having primary and secondary (or "back-up") systems each of which have redundant hardware components and have data structures associated with these components. The present invention further relates to the interconnection of the hardware components and to the processes for providing redundant data structures which enable a secondary or back-up system to rapidly and effectively assume control when a malfunction occurs in a primary control system. Both systems are connected via the same remote data links to common I/O racks which interface to sensing and output devices on the equipment being controlled. Data structure information in the primary system is specially crossloaded to the secondary system so that when a malfunction occurs that shuts down the primary system, the secondary system can begin execution of the same control programs and input and output the same data to the same I/O racks based on up to date data from the primary system. The crossloading of the data is accomplished through the use of special backup modules in both the primary and secondary (backup) control systems connected by a high speed communications link. Communications take place through the use of program utilities which establish a tightly coupled communications network between the primary and secondary systems. Additionally, on-line editing is enabled in stages so that when either control system can not properly execute the edit it is rejected. This system insures that edits can not take place in the primary system without being concurrently implemented in the secondary system.

摘要： A programmable controller suitable for operating a machine to carry out a plurality of programmed functions includes a plurality of program processors each being operable to execute simultaneously a different control program that directs the programmable controller to operate the machine to perform specific functions. Each of the processors includes a memory having areas for receiving different priority level messages. Each area has an addressable location corresponding to each module in the controller that can send messages. A message may be an executable command or a pointer to an address block containing the message or message access parameters.

摘要： A programmable controller governs the operation of a piece of equipment by executing machine language instructions compiled from a ladder diagram type control program. The control program as stored in the controller includes not only compiled machine language instructions, but also a tokenized version of the source code from which certain machine language instructions were compiled. The source code is provided only for those portions of the machine language program which cannot be easily decompiled to produce the corresponding source code. This program storage facilitates subsequent editing of the stored program via a terminal connected to the programmable controller. During the editing process, the original ladder diagram can be reconstructed from a combination of the machine language instructions and the tokenized version of the source code. In doing so, the machine language instructions, which have a one-to-one correspondence with the source code instructions, are decompiled using conventional techniques. However, the tokenized version of the source code is used to recreate the portions of the ladder diagram for which each machine language instruction does not have a unique one-to-one correspondence with a source code instruction. This program storage technique enables the control program to be easily edited using the version stored in the programmable controller without requiring access to the original source code from which the program was compiled.
摘要翻译： 可编程控制器通过执行从梯形图类型控制程序编译的机器语言指令来控制一件设备的操作。 存储在控制器中的控制程序不仅包括编译的机器语言指令，而且包括编译某些机器语言指令的源代码的标记版本。 源代码仅提供给机器语言程序的那些不能轻易地被反编译以产生相应的源代码的部分。 该程序存储便于经由连接到可编程控制器的终端对存储的程序的后续编辑。 在编辑过程中，可以从机器语言指令和源代码的标记版本的组合中重建原始梯形图。 在这样做时，使用常规技术对与源代码指令具有一一对应关系的机器语言指令进行反编译。 然而，源代码的令牌化版本用于重新创建梯形图的部分，其中每个机器语言指令与源代码指令不具有唯一的一一对应关系。 该程序存储技术使得能够使用存储在可编程控制器中的版本容易地编辑控制程序，而不需要访问编译程序的原始源代码。

摘要： An industrial controller provides a primary controller and a redundant secondary controller and allows switchover between the controllers in the event of a failure in the primary controller. The process of qualification of the secondary controller in which its programming is made to match the primary controller may be inhibited to permit the secondary controller to maintain a clean version of an upgraded program executing on the primary controller. The clean program may be reverted to in the event an upgrading of the program in the primary controller is unsuccessful. Switchover is permitted even though the qualification of the secondary controller is not enabled.

摘要： On-line upgrading of a primary industrial controller is provided through the use of a secondary industrial controller that may assume control of the process controlled by the primary industrial controller. A switch-over of control is orchestrated by a system back-up module that may detect removal of the functional components of the primary industrial controller to initiate the switch-over. Determination of removal of functional modules may be provided by a periodic polling of the functional components on the interconnecting communication link. The system back-up module designates one of the functional modules to poll the system back-up module so that complete coverage of removable components may be had.

摘要： An industrial control system employs a primary and secondary controller each having a processor and an I/O data table. Updating of the secondary processor's I/O data table is accomplished synchronously with execution of the program in the primary processor at a particular point in the program. A tracking of changes in the I/O data table of the primary processor is used to transmit only changes in the I/O table to the secondary processor thereby avoiding undue interruption of the executing program while preserving synchronicity.

摘要： A redundant industrial controller system has a primary controller backed up by a secondary controller and recovers from a power loss by analyzing the state memories of the controllers to reach a determination of which controller would best be suited to assume primary control status without resorting to arbitrary tie-breaking procedures or race conditions. The rules and their inputs are applied by both controllers which independently make the determination as to which controller should be the primary controller.

摘要： A programmable controller for operating a machine to perform programmed functions allows the user to allocate the amount of processing time to be devoted to a machine control program and to user defined background tasks. The allocation is defined by an entry stored in one of several locations in a data table. Each occurrence of a timed interrupt steps the operating system through the data table. When the operating system accesses the location at which the entry is stored, the machine control program is assigned as lower execution priority than any background tasks to be executed. When the last storage location of the data table is accessed, the user control program is restored to a higher execution priority than the background tasks before initiating another stepping sequence through the data table.

摘要： An industrial control system employs a primary and secondary controller each having a processor and at least one I/O data table. Updating of the secondary processor's I/O data table is performed prior to the same data being transmitted to the controlled process. This eliminates possible retrogressive control at the time of switch-over of control from the primary industrial controller to the secondary industrial controller. Additional I/O data tables may be provided in each of the primary and secondary industrial controllers. In the case of the secondary industrial controller, this duplicate I/O data table temporarily holds data until the transmission is complete preventing the partial update of the working I/O data table of the secondary industrial controller. The duplicate I/O data table in the primary industrial controller allows simultaneous outputting of the I/O data transmitted to the controlled process without corruption while the user program of the primary industrial controller resumes execution.
