  • Patent number: 11297063
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for user administration of a field device of process automation technology, comprising the steps of connecting a transport medium, such as a smartphone, to a user database, synchronizing user data from the user database with the transport medium, and connecting the transport medium to the field device. The method also includes transmitting the user data from the transport medium to the field device, checking of the user data by the field device, and granting access to the field device on the basis of verified valid user data.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10859547
    Abstract: A measuring arrangement, which includes: a sensor, wherein the sensor is embodied to produce a measurement signal correlated with a measured variable, a first interface, an evaluation circuit least one computer system and a memory associated with the computer system, as well as a third interface, especially a third interface embodied as a fieldbus interface, a first superordinated data processing system with which the evaluation circuit is connected via the third interface, wherein in the memory associated with the computer system of the evaluation circuit a computer program executable by the computer system is stored, wherein the computer program serves for additional processing of the measurement signal as well as serving for transmission of the further processed measurement signal via the third interface to the first superordinated data processing system; and a second superordinated data processing system connected wirelessly, especially via a radio connection, with the evaluation circuit.

  • Patent number: 9276996
    Abstract: An apparatus for servicing a field device from a remote terminal, wherein the field device has an onsite display/servicing capability and is connected to a fieldbus of process automation technology. The remote terminal and the field device communicate with one another via at least one defined transmission protocol. A web server is integrated in the field device, in a Plant Access Point or in the remote terminal; the web server provides all requested device information, which is the so called firmware, of the field device in the form of dynamically produced contents to the remote terminal. A communication driver specific to the applied transmission protocol and a browser are integrated in the remote terminal.

  • Publication number: 20120073989
    Abstract: A method for operating a measuring device comprising the following steps: providing a first sample of the liquid; ascertaining an updated calibration function by means of a standard addition method, wherein the first sample is supplemented at least once with a standard solution, which has a known concentration of the measured ion; determining a measured value of concentration of the measured ion in the first sample; providing a second sample of the liquid; ascertaining a measured value of concentration of the measured ion in the second sample as a reference measured ion concentration (cref) by means of a reference method; and determining a difference (cdisturb) between the apparent measured ion concentration (capparent) and the reference measured ion concentration (cref) and deriving a correction value (ckorr) therefrom for future measured values of concentration of the measured ion in the liquid, as ascertained with the measuring device.
