Abstract
The invention relates to an automation system and a method for visualizing a system with a client (1) for displaying a web page consisting of data fields for displaying parameter values, comprising a processing unit (2) for storing actual parameter values. The modified parameter values can be interrogated by a client (1) by cyclical polling. Only the modified parameter values are transmitted to the client in an associated script and interpreted by the browser (3).
Claims19
An automation system for use with a client for displaying a web page, the web page having fields for displaying parameter values, comprising
- a processing unit with a storage for storing current parameter values;
- means for cyclical polling of modified parameter values from the processing unit;
- and
- means for transmitting the modified parameter values with a script for assigning the modified parameter values to display modifications and/or display elements of the web page.
A method for visualizing a system comprising the following steps:
- displaying a web page representing a subsystem of the system with parameter values;
- cyclically polling a processing unit for modified parameter values;
- and
- transmiting the modified parameter values with a script for assigning the modified value to a corresponding display element of the web page.
A computer program product arranged on a computer-readable medium, comprising:
- a computer program adapted to display a web page representing a subsystem of the system with parameter values, cyclically poll a processing unit for modified parameter values, and transmit the modified parameter values with a script for assigning the modified value to a corresponding display element of the web page.
- an automation system on which the computer program product is run.
An automation system for use with a client for displaying a web page, wherein the web page having fields for displaying parameter values, comprising
- a processing unit with a storage for storing current parameter values;
- a browser adapted to cyclically poll modified parameter values from the processing unit;
- and
- a server adapted to transmit the modified parameter values with a script for assigning the modified parameter values to display modifications or elements of the web page.
