The present disclosure comprises a method for managing a plant of the automation technology, including a step of acquiring and storing all data transmitted via a communication network, consisting of process values, control variables and status data, and operating telegrams by a field detection unit, and providing the data and the operating telegrams with time stamps. The method also includes steps of temporally assigning the operating telegrams to the data, and analyzing the assignment and creating an intervention system. The intervention system contains plant states and interventions, wherein a plant state is created on the basis of transmitted data from a sensor unit and from an actuator unit, and wherein an intervention consists of at least one operating telegram following the transmitted data from the sensor unit and from the actuator unit.

Method for monitoring a plant of the automation technology

A method for wireless data transmission between first and second transmission participants, wherein for wireless data transmission between the first and second participants alternately a first protocol and a second protocol are used, wherein the first protocol serves for unidirectional data transmission and the second protocol for bidirectional data transmission.

Method as well as system for wireless data transmission

A method for servicing a field device of process automation technology. The data exchanged between the field device and a servicing program is by means of at least one protocol, which has basic commands, via which basic functions of the field device can be invoked. Each field device which is compatible with the protocol has these basic functions available to it, and wherein only basic commands of the protocol are used to transfer data between the servicing program and the field device.

Method for servicing a field device

A method for servicing a field device of automation technology with an operating program comprising a frame application and executable software components designed for the field devices and encapsulating the servicing functionalities of field devices. The software component designed for the field device is divided in two and comprises a basic software component and a software extension component, wherein the basic software component serves for reading and writing of device parameters of the field device and provides a graphical, basic, user interface, and the software extension component is produced from the program code of the device software of the field device and delivers the service functionality of the field device.

Method for servicing a field device of automation technology

A method for operating a field device of automation technology capable of special-functionalities, an enabling code set having a plurality of enabling code is managed in a superordinated, key-management unit. With the assistance of the enabling codes, special-functionalities can be enabled in field devices. Associated with individual enabling codes of the enabling code set is, in each case, an attribute, 'free' or 'blocked'. If a special-functionality is needed, then an enabling code is transmitted to the field device, in case an enabling code with attribute &#x201c;free&#x201d; is present. Following transmission, the attribute of the transmitted enabling code is changed from free to blocked. The method permits enabling code to be used very flexably.

Method for operating a field device in automation engineering with special functionalities

In a method for offline parametering of a field device with the help of an operating program B running on an operating device B, the operating program B communicates with a copy of the device software program GS that runs in the field device F
