Abstract
The disclosure includes a method and a system for the distributed storing of information in a plant of process automation having a plurality of field devices, the method including: reading data in the form of data bit sequences, both from a first field device as well as also from at least a second field device, by a logic unit; combining at least a first data bit sequence read from the first field device with at least a second data bit sequence read from the second field device by means of an XOR function executed by the logic unit for forming a first check bit sequence, wherein in the check bit sequence each position corresponds to an XOR operation of the corresponding locations of the first and second data bit sequences; and storing the check bit sequence in a third field device.
