Abstract
When a technical process is monitored, messages from an automation system are continually transmitted to an operating and observation system. The messages are evaluated in the operating and observation system and displayed on a monitor. When a fault is recognized in the automation system, the location of the fault is displayed in a type of hierarchical progression. For this purpose, at least the important planning and design data of the automation system are accessible from the operating and observation system.
