An error detection and localisation in a pneumatic system and in particular an error detection module includes a read-in interface for reading-in digital signals from the automation plant, a first processor unit designed to execute a detection algorithm for calculating an anomaly score for the automation plant on the basis of the set of read-in signals, a second processor unit which is designed&#x2014;in the event that the anomaly score calculated with the first processor unit indicates an anomaly&#x2014;to perform a machine localisation method for localising the error, wherein the machine localisation method has been trained in a training phase in order to calculate and as a result provide, on the basis of a detected circuit diagram of the automation plant with respect to the calculated anomaly score, probabilities of possible causes of error in relation to individual components of the automation plant.
