Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for operating a field device.
  • Field devices are often used in automation technology, which are used to record and / or influence process variables. Examples of such field devices are level measuring devices, mass flow meters, pressure meters, temperature meters, etc., which record the corresponding process variables level, mass flow, pressure or temperature.
  • actuators are used to influence process variables, e.g. as valves influence the flow of a liquid in a pipe section.
  • the field devices are usually connected via a data bus to a control or engineering system that controls the entire process flow or enables direct access to the individual field devices. With direct access, settings on the field device can be changed or special diagnostic functions can be called up. In addition to access via the control system, temporary access via e.g. a portable handheld device (handheld) portable computer or a cell phone possible.
  • a control or engineering system that controls the entire process flow or enables direct access to the individual field devices. With direct access, settings on the field device can be changed or special diagnostic functions can be called up.
  • temporary access via e.g. a portable handheld device (handheld) portable computer or a cell phone possible.
  • the measured values of the various process variables are evaluated or monitored in the control system and the corresponding actuators are controlled accordingly to influence the process.
  • the data transfer between the field device and the control system is based on the known international standards for fieldbuses, such as Hart, Foundation Fieldbus, Profibus, CAN etc.
  • the functionality of the field device In order to enable the operation of different field devices from the operating device, the functionality of the field device must be known to the operating device.
  • the functionality of the field device is determined by the field device application program that runs in the field device.
  • the functionality of the field device has so far been described by means of a device description. There is a special language for this, the Device Description Language. Using this standardized language, the necessary information about the functionality of certain field devices can be transmitted to other bus subscribers, in particular to the control system or another operating device.
  • the invention is based on the object of proposing a method which enables safe and simple operation of a field device from an operating device without being restricted to a specific programming language.
  • the essential idea of the invention is that an identical intermediate code is used in the field device and in the operating device. This means that the full functionality of the field device is available to the operator panel without the use of device descriptions.
  • the intermediate code can be generated from a wide variety of programming languages. There is no longer a restriction to a specific programming language.

  • the intermediate code is suitable for a runtime environment on a Microsoft ⁇ platform.
  • the operating device can advantageously be a PC, a control system, a handheld operating device or a radio telephone (cell phone).

  • program part A parameter business logic source code
  • program part B support and realtime source code
  • Both program parts A and B can be written in one of the known programming languages e.g. C #, C / C ++, Visual Basic, Java Script etc.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil de terrain (F1), dans lequel un programme d'application d'appareil de terrain est exécuté dans un microprocesseur (M). Ce programme d'application d'appareil de terrain comprend différentes parties concernant les fonctions individuelles de cet appareil de terrain, p. ex. la communication, la saisie de valeurs de mesure et l'évaluation, ainsi qu'une partie (M1A) décrivant la fonctionnalité dudit appareil de terrain (F1). Cette partie (M1A) du programme d'application d'appareil de terrain est extraite à partir d'un code intermédiaire (Z) au moyen d'un interpréteur (J1). Afin de permettre une utilisation de cet appareil de terrain (F1) à partir d'une unité de commande (S), le code intermédiaire (Z) est transmis à cette unité de commande (S) et exécuté à ce niveau. La fonctionnalité complète de cet appareil de terrain (F) est ainsi fournie à l'unité de commande (S).
