Abstract: An industrial automation component includes an electronic display that displays machine-readable indicia. The machine readable-indicia may be scanned by an image sensor. The industrial automation component also includes a processor communicatively coupled to the electronic display. The processor receives data associated with the industrial automation component and generates a first machine-readable indicia based on the data. The first machine-readable indicia may be displayed via the electronic display. The processor also receives updated data associated with the industrial automation component and generates a second machine-readable indicia based on the updated data. The second machine-readable indicia may be displayed via the electronic display.

Abstract: An industrial device includes an input/output module and a processor. The input/output module is configured to communicate with one or more other devices via an industrial network. The processor is configured to configure the industrial device as a leader device or a follower device. The processor includes a leader module, upon being activated, configured to detect and configured one or more follower devices connected to the industrial network; and a follower module, upon being activated, configured to broadcast identity and receive configuration command from a leader device.

Abstract: Motor drive diagnostic and control methods and apparatus are provided in which rectifier and inverter switching devices are individually monitored for malfunctions, and detected malfunctions initiate implementation of a safety function to signal a drive controller to shut down non-safety-related processing, to discontinue command pulse signaling to the switching devices, and to disable optical transmitters between the drive controller and the rectifier and inverter switches, and an input contactor or other switching circuit is opened to disconnect input power from the motor drive after implementation of the safety function.

Abstract: The present technology relates to health metrics corresponding to industrial automation devices and a user experience for connecting to devices in an industrial automation environment to configure and view health metrics. Health metrics of a device can be obtained from a server, an industrial device, a controller coupled to the industrial device, or another source, and provided to a user interface device. The user interface device can display indications of the health metrics on a user interface. The user interface device can also establish a connection with a user device and provide the indications of the health metrics to the user device for display on a user interface of the user device.

Abstract: A system may include one or more drives configured to receive a first alternative current (AC) voltage from a power source and provide a second AC voltage to one or more load devices. The system may further include one or more safety relay devices configured to couple the power source to the one or more drives and a communication device, where the communication device includes a processor. The processor may be configured to receive a first dataset via an Ethernet communication protocol, where the first dataset may include safety connection data indicative of one or more safety commands for controlling one or more operations of the one or more safety relay devices. The processor may further be configured to transmit a second dataset to the one or more safety relay devices via a subnet infrastructure, where the second dataset includes the one or more safety commands.

IPC: G05B23/02

Abstract: The present technology relates to health metrics corresponding to industrial automation devices and a user experience for configuring calculation devices to produce the health metrics. Health metrics of a device can be produced by obtaining performance metrics of the device and contextualizing the performance metrics based on contextualization information. The health metrics can be categorized based on applying rule sets to the health metrics. Contextualization and application of rule sets can be selectively performed by one or more calculation devices, such as one or more servers, industrial devices, user devices, or the like based on configuration settings. The calculation devices can obtain the performance metrics, operations, and rule sets to produce the health metrics for instantiation on a user interface.

Health metrics of a device can be produced by obtaining performance metrics of the device and contextualizing the performance metrics based on contextualization information. The health metrics can be categorized based on applying rule sets to the health metrics. The rule sets can be selectively applied to the health metrics based on a type of a respective health metric. The health metrics and health metric categories can be instantiated in a user interface of a user device based on a request for device health information from the user device.

Abstract: An industrial motor drive and associated human interface module (HIM) for interfacing with the industrial motor drive to control operation of a motor in an industrial operation. The human interface module receives inputs from a human related to control parameters associated with the industrial motor drive and presents progressively narrowing lists and suggestions to assist the user in accessing and modifying control parameters associated with the industrial motor drive. Based on a modification to a control parameter, the industrial motor drive controls the operation of the motor in the industrial operation accordingly.
