Abstract: The invention relates to a method for remotely controlling and/or regulating at least one system (1), in particular an industrial system using a communications device (2) which is assigned to the system (1), and at least one receiver device (3), information relating to the system being transmitted from the communications device (2) to the at least one receiver device (3), the information containing a validation code which is generated by the communications device (2), a message being received by the communications device (2), the communications device (2) extracting a check code and instruction information from the message according to a first extraction rule, the communications device (2) validating the message by means of the validation code and check code, and the instruction information being implemented by the system (1) only when the validation is successful.

Abstract: A method for installation of a programmable protective function in a protective device for an electrical power distribution network, with the protective device having means for processing measured values from measurement appliances for the power distribution network, and having means for initiating switching commands by primary appliances for the power distribution network, and the protective function determining the switching commands on the basis of the measured values, when it is carried out, has the following steps: transmission of a description of the protective function from a remote function server via a communication link to the protective device, loading of the description in the protective device, and implementation of the loaded description of the protective function.
