Abstract: A device comprising a lifting rail that is firmly adhesively bonded to a pane is presented. The lifting rail has a tuning-fork-shaped vertical section that comprises an enclosing region having two mutually opposite open ends configured to bilaterally enclose an edge of the pane, and therefore fix the plane. The device also includes a stem surface, a region of bifurcation where the stem surface transitions into enclosing region, and an outer edge having a through-hole or a cutout. Also included is an adhesive strip that partially covers the stem surface in a manner that the through-hole or the cutout remain exposed. The adhesive strip also covers the enclosing region and the two mutually opposite open ends. The adhesive strip is deformed by the edge of the pane in two mutually opposite regions of the adhesive strip.

Abstract: A method for power station simulation, particularly for test purposes, by means of a piece of distributed simulation hardware that includes one or more emulation units, each having at least one emulation component, and also a simulation unit having a process model, where the method includes operating the emulation components cyclically with a common cycle time, using a respective cycle to form a time stamp, and automatically providing a data packet that is saved by each emulation component with the respective time stamp upon an appropriate command, wherein the data of the data packet are organized in accordance with a prescribed format and comprise a signal map.

Abstract: A method for power station simulation by means of a piece of distributed simulation hardware allows automatic and unaltered adoption of an automation solution intended for a respective original system and in the process specifically also converts communication relationships between devices of the original system into communication relationships between corresponding emulation components.

Abstract: A frameless solar module having a substrate and a cover layer between which a layer structure for forming solar cells is located is described. At least one module carrier for reinforcing and/or supporting mounting of the solar module is fastened to a substrate surface facing away from the layer structure, the module carrier having at least one adhesive surface, which is adhered to the substrate surface by an adhesive layer made of a cured adhesive. The adhesive layer has one or a plurality of spacers which are designed to keep the adhesive surface at a specifiable minimum distance from the substrate surface when the adhesive of the adhesive layer is not cured. The spacers have different dimensions for maintaining the distance between the adhesive surface of the module carrier and the substrate surface.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for exchanging data on the basis of the OPC communications protocol, wherein at least one OPC-ready server is connected parallel to a master OPC server. An OPC client is connected to the master OPC server over a first communications link and to at least one OPC-ready server via at least one second communications link. The OPC client exchanges data over the first communications link and the master OPC server, and over at least the second communications link and at least one OPC-ready server with automatic devices, and evaluates the data transmitted by the master OPC server and at least one OCT-ready server. In the event of failure, the master OPC server is at least partially switched over from the OPC client to at least one OPC-ready server such that the program continues to run smoothly in the same place.

Abstract: There is described a method for monitoring the functionality of an automation system of a plant comprising at least one main processor, parts of the plant being monitored and controlled using a user software, which is constructed of a number of program modules and which is run on the main processor. A co-processor is assigned to the main processor, and a message is transmitted from the main processor to the co-processor. When received, this message is used by the co-processor to start a monitoring time. When a subsequent message is received, this monitoring time is reset before said monitoring time has elapsed, otherwise a fault is identified once the monitoring time has elapsed.
