Abstract: A computer-based design system for an electric drive system includes: a cam editor having a graphical user interface, wherein the graphical user interface sets values of parameters of a motion profile of the electric drive system on the basis of user inputs, a limit value memory, which stores limit values of the motion profile, and a limit value monitoring device, which monitors whether a value of a parameter inputted by a user input causes one or more of the stored limit values to be violated by the resulting motion profile and, in the case that one or more of the stored limit values are violated by the resulting motion profile, to adjust the inputted value of the parameter to such a value of the parameter that none of the stored limit values are violated by the resulting motion profile.

Abstract: A method transfers operating data of an automation system to a cloud memory, wherein the cloud memory is selectable from a set of different types of cloud memories. The method has the steps of: transferring the operating data from the automation system to a gateway; using the gateway to read in a configuration file, wherein the configuration file has a type-determining entry determining the type of cloud memory into which the operating data are to be loaded; using the gateway to format the operating data on the basis of the type-determining entry of the configuration file; and using the gateway to load the formatted operating data into the cloud memory.
