Abstract
An automation controller is selected on which to deploy control logic. At the communication network, the control logic is built for deployment to the automation controller selected. At the communication network, the control logic is mapped to the hardware configuration of the automation controller selected. The control logic is loaded on to the automation controller that is selected and the control logic is integrated to the selected automation controller.
Claims13
A method of creating control logic at a communication network and integrating the control logic to a remotely located automation controller, the method comprising:
- selecting an automation controller on which to deploy control logic;
- at the communication network, building the control logic for deployment to the automation controller selected;
- at the communication network, mapping the control logic to the hardware configuration of the automation controller selected;
- and
- loading the control logic on to the automation controller that is selected and integrating the control logic to the selected automation controller.
An apparatus for creating control logic at a communication network and integrating the control logic to a remotely located automation controller, the apparatus comprising:
- a service interface having an input and an output, the interface configured to receive a selection from a user at the input of an automation controller on which to deploy control logic;
- and
- a controller deployed at a communication network and coupled to the interface, the controller being configured to build the control logic for deployment to the automation controller selected, the controller being configured to map the control logic to the hardware configuration of the automation controller selected, the controller being configured to load the control logic on to the automation controller that is selected.
