The invention relates to an automation system and a method for operating automation equipment that includes an operator system for displaying a technical process to be controlled and at least one automation device that is configured to process, for process control, CFC functions of a control program which are loaded onto the at least one automation device and are created by means of a Continuous Function Chart editor. The load on an automation device in such a system is operatively reduced in accord with the monitored load on the device, without the need to upgrade or change the hardware of the automation device, by loading corresponding CFC functions onto the operator system and switching between corresponding CFC functions on the automation device and the operator system.
A method for operating automation equipment that includes an operator system for displaying a technical process to be controlled and at least one automation device which is configured to process, for process control, CFC functions of a control program that are loaded onto the at least one automation device and are created by means of a Continuous Function Chart editor, the method comprising:
