Abstract
A distributed automation system is described with at least one first order network device (1, 1′, 1″) and at least one piece of data available on the first order network device, at least one database system (2) and at least one first order network (3). With the distributed automation system, the data acquisition and diagnosis possibilities are improved by the first order network device (1, 1′, 1″) and the database system (2) being directly interconnected via the first order network (3), and by the data from the first order network device (1, 1′, 1″) being able to be transmitted actively and directly via the first order network (3) to the database system (2).
Claims14
Distributed automation system, comprising:
- at least one first order network device and at least one piece of data available on the first order network device,
- at least one database system and
- at least one first order network,
- wherein the first order network device and the database system are directly interconnected via the first order network, the piece of data from the first order network device being actively and directly transmittable via the first order network to the database system.
Process for data acquisition in a distributed automation system, with at least one network device, at least one piece of data available on the network device, at least one database system for administration of the data originating from the network device, and at least one network, comprising the steps of:
- connecting the network device and the database directly to one another via the network, and
- actively transmitting data from the at least one network device via the at least one network to the at least one database system.
