Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for updating device descriptions for field devices in process automation technology by loading the required descriptions from an external server (S), by means of an application program, into a controller (for example, PC 1 ; PC 2 ).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method for updating device descriptions for different field devices, sensors or actuators, for determining and influencing process variables in process automation technology, whereby the field devices are connected via a field bus, whereby in each case a device description describes the functionality of the corresponding field device in a standardized language and whereby a control unit and an external server are employed, and whereby from the co…
