  • Patent number: 8135792
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system for generating and displaying messages and/or alarms particularly in an automation system of a plant and/or process. The invention further relates to a corresponding method. Using the system and method, messages and/or alarms can easily be displayed differently depending on the state of a production plant or process.

  • Patent number: 7904400
    Abstract: A help system, an automation device with such a help system and a method for providing help data are disclosed. The help system includes a first offline help facility which is installed as part of an application on a data processing device, the first help facility providing a user with help data based upon context data defined by the user, the help data being stored in the first help facility and thus on the data processing device. A second online help facility is provided which is accessed by the data processing device via the internet such that the context data defined by the user in relation to the first help facility is automatically adopted in the second help facility as context data, the second help facility providing the user with additional help data based on this context data, the help data being stored in the second help facility.

  • Patent number: 7779053
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method, a computer program product and an engineering system for creating a diagnostic model of an automation system made up of various automation components. The diagnostic model is generated automatically during the project planning phase of the automation system. Within the diagnostic model the automation components are represented by model nodes. Functional and/or physical relationships between the automation components are mapped by links between the corresponding model nodes within the diagnostic model. Each model node contains status information in which the status of the associated automation component is stored. By evaluating the status information, the status of the automation system can be investigated and monitored with the aid of the diagnostic model.

  • Publication number: 20060117315
    Abstract: Help system, automation device with a help system and method for providing help data The invention relates to a help system. The help system comprises a first help facility (2) which is preferably installed as part of an application on a data processing device (3), the first help facility (2) providing a user with help data on the basis of context data defined by the user, in particular on the basis of search terms, said help data being stored in the first help facility (2) and thus on the data processing device. A second help facility (5) is provided according to the invention, which is accessed by the data processing device preferably via the internet such that the context data defined by the user in relation to the first help facility (2) is automatically adopted in the second help facility as context data, the second help facility (5) providing the user with additional help data based on this context data, said help data being stored in the second help facility (5).
