Implementing engineering unit conversions associated with control devices

A method, comprising:

• identifying, by a system comprising a processor, a first conversion function relating to a first engineering unit based at least in part on a first tag associated with a first item of data associated with an automation device of a control system and a set of user preferences associated with a user, wherein the first tag comprises operational settings data relating to the first conversion function, wherein the first item of data is associated with information that is in a first language based at least in part on a first geographical regional industry standard associated with a geographical location of the control system, and wherein a first engineering unit associated with the first item of data is based at least in part on the first geographical regional industry standard;
• and
• converting, by the system, at least one of the information associated with the first item of data from the first language to a second language associated with a second geographical regional industry standard or the first engineering unit associated with the first geographical regional industry standard to a second engineering unit associated with the second geographical regional industry standard, based at least in part on the set of user preferences and at least one of the first conversion function or a second conversion function relating to language conversion that is or are determined based at least in part on the first tag that is related to the first conversion function.

A computer-readable storage medium comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:

• determining a conversion function relating to an engineering unit based at least in part on metadata associated with an item of data associated with an automation device of a control system and a set of user preferences associated with a user and a set of user preferences, wherein the metadata comprises operational settings data relating to the conversion function, wherein the item of data is associated with information that is in a first language based at least in part on a first geographical regional industry standard associated with a first geographical location of the control system, and wherein the engineering unit associated with the item of data is based at least in part on the first geographical regional industry standard;
• and
• converting at least one of the information associated with the item of data from the first language to a second language associated with a second geographical regional industry standard associated with a second geographical location that is different from the first geographical location or the engineering unit associated with the first geographical regional industry standard to a second engineering unit associated with the second geographical regional industry standard, based at least in part on the set of user preferences and at least one of the conversion function or a second conversion function relating to language conversion that is or are determined based at least in part on the metadata that is related to the conversion function.
