The present disclosure relates to a method for verifying a value stream along a transport route, wherein a plurality of field devices, each having at least one sensor and/or actuator for determining and/or monitoring at least one process variable and an electronic unit, are arranged along the transport route and generate corresponding data, or for verifying the value stream of at least one product in warehouse stock, wherein a first service platform is used, via which a plurality of participant nodes each with at least one database have a communication connection to one another according to a distributed ledger or blockchain technology.

Method for verifying a value stream along a transport route or in warehouse stock by means of blockchain technology

The present disclosure relates to a method for ensuring the authenticity of a field device. The method includes a step of assigning a unique authentic identification feature to the field device or providing the field device with a unique authentic identification feature. The method also includes steps of transmitting ACTUAL identification data to a participant node which transmits the ACTUAL identification data to the other participant nodes in a transaction, validating the transaction by the participant nodes, and creating a data block containing the transaction, wherein the data block is transmitted to each of the participant nodes. The method also includes verifying the data block by all participant nodes, storing the validated data block in the databases, comparing the ACTUAL identification data with corresponding TARGET identification data or original identification data from an authentication point, and generating a response containing the result of the comparison.

Method for ensuring the authenticity of a field device

A method and a system for monitoring a plant automation technology, comprising: a gateway, which is connected for communication with at least one field device via a first communication network, wherein the gateway is embodied to read out data from the field device; and a service device, especially a router or a switch, which is connected for communication with the gateway by means of a second communication network, wherein the service device is embodied to receive via the second communication network the data read-out by the gateway and to transmit to a management application via a third communication network the data queried by the gateway.

Method and system for monitoring a plant of process automation

A system and a microservice for monitoring a plant of automation technology, wherein the plant has a plurality of field devices the field devices can communicate via at least a first communication network with one another and with a control unit, comprising: an execution electronics, which can communicate with at least one of the field devices; and a configuration electronics, which is arranged removed from the execution electronics and which can communicate with the execution electronics via a second communication network, wherein the configuration electronics and/or the execution electronics has at least one microservice, which is appropriate for the type of the field device and which is embodied to provide at least one functionality for execution in the execution electronics and/or in the configuration electronics.

System and microservice for monitoring a plant of process automation

A method for implementing at least one additional function of a field device in automation technology, wherein the field device is parametered and/or configured via a servicing device using a device description, wherein the method has the following method steps: the original device description, which comprehensively describes the field device, is made available; the original device description is expanded by a script or a supplemental device description fragment; wherein the script or the device description fragment comprehensively describes the additional function; and the field device is serviced from the servicing device by means of the expanded device description and is able to execute the additional function.

Method for implementing at least one additional function of a field device in automation technology

A method for operating a field device, wherein at least one command that is in line with a communication protocol for operating a field device is sent from a higher-order unit to a field device by sending the command to an operating unit by means of a first bearer protocol and by transmitting the command from the operating unit to the field device by means of a second bearer protocol.

Method for operating a field device

In a method for testing device descriptions for field devices of automation technology, a finite state machine is produced from a device description to serve as a basis for a test script. For testing the device description, the test script is executed, with data being sent to and received from the device description. In such case, it is tested whether desired values set in the test script agree with actual values delivered e.g. from the field device.

Method for testing device descriptions for field devices of automation technology

In a method for producing software modules for field devices for process automation technology (PROFIBUS), wherein the software modules serve as device descriptions and have defined interfaces, in accordance with the FDT/DTM, for application programs in process control systems, syntactically and semantically correct, standard device descriptions are produced in EDD 1.1 from PDM, HCF or company-specific device descriptions for field devices, and the EDD 1.1 versions are then converted into corresponding software modules by means of a compiler C.

Method for producing software modules for field devices of process automation technology

This invention relates to a measuring device for process technology, to be used in measurement and/or cleaning and/or calibration installations in the area of process automation, for measuring pH-values and/or redox potentials and/or other process parameters, and has a central unit, with which at least one measurement module is connectable. Every measurement module is selectable by the central unit by a selection line assigned thereto.

Measuring device for process engineering and operating method for a measuring device

A measuring device for process technology, useful in measuring- and/or cleaning- and/or calibration-installations in the field of process automation for measuring pH-values and/or redox potentials and/or other process parameters, and an operating method therefor. The measuring device includes at least one central unit having at least one central computer, wherein, in the central computer a management system is provided for the dynamic management of input components (I) and/or output components (O) and/or functional components (F) and/or service components (D) and/or management components (V) and/or interface components (IX) and/or other system components.
