Abstract
A method for configuration of a control system for an electrical switchgear assembly uses a primary device model for representation of primary devices, and a topology model of the switchgear assembly. In order to configure a first control system function, the first control system function is allocated to a primary device and to a field device, after which the primary device model and the topology model are used to automatically determine second control system functions which the first control system function requires during operation.
Claims8
A method for configuration of a control system for an electrical switchgear assembly, which uses a field device model for representation of field devices, and a control function model for representation of control system functions of the switchgear assembly, characterized in that the method uses a primary device model for representation of primary devices in the switchgear assembly, and a topology model of the switchgear assembly, and comprises the following steps:
- a) association of a first control system function with a primary device by means of the primary device model,
- b) association of the first control system function with a field device by means of the field device model,
- c) automatic determination of second control system functions, which the first control system function requires during operation of the assembly, on the basis of the topology model.
