To simplify and/or more flexibly implement a process control by means of a control device, a method is provided for process control in which at least one first and one second data processing module are executed by a control device during operation, wherein an operating program of the control device automatically implements an exchange of data between assigned data objects of the first and the second data processing module, and wherein the assignment between the data objects of the first and the second data processing modules is modified during operation of the control device in order to modify the process control. In addition, the control device is designed to carry out the method, as well as an operating program for such a control device, which can particularly be saved on a data storage device.

Method and controller for flexible process control

The invention relates to a method and system for diagnosing communication connections in a communication system. The invention enables the provision of a plurality of first diagnosis units and at least one second diagnosis unit, wherein the first and second diagnosis units each are assigned to a communication connection of the communication system and are configured for determining a value of a diagnosis variable of the respectively assigned communication connections, and provides for determining a value of at least one diagnosis variable by each of the first diagnosis units, determining a value of at least one diagnosis variable by the at least one second diagnosis unit, transferring the values determined by the first diagnosis units to an evaluation unit, statistically evaluating the transferred values by the evaluation unit, and diagnosing the values determined by the at least one second diagnosis unit depending on the statistical evaluation by the evaluation unit.

Method, electronic component and system for the diagnosis of communication connections

The invention relates to a method for parameterizing operating means connected to a data transmission medium. In this case, for at least several of the connected operating means, in each case, a device description will be stored in a central facility, each device description containing at least one function and the parameter set belonging thereto. In addition, a list of several predefined device functions will be stored in memory, for which the corresponding parameter set will be assigned each time to the operating means that support the device function. If a device function is selected, then in response to the selected device function, at least one operating means that supports this device function will be parameterized.
