Abstract
Various embodiments relate to a digital control unit of a bioprocess arrangement for controlling a bioprocess, wherein the digital control unit comprises a local data storage and a local processor unit, wherein the digital control unit comprises a bioprocess interface for sending and receiving bioprocess control data, wherein the digital control unit is configured to execute a bioprocess control routine via the local processor unit to control the bioprocess, wherein in the bioprocess control routine, the digital control unit generates bioprocess data from the actuator data and/or the sensor data and/or the user control command data. It is proposed that the digital control unit is configured to execute a signing routine via the local processor unit and that in the signing routine, the digital control unit digitally signs documentation data, derived from the bioprocess data, by generating a digital signature.
