Abstract
Techniques to facilitate device configuration for a mobile application associated with an industrial automation environment are disclosed herein. In at least one implementation, device configuration data for the mobile application is received from an application platform device registry server. The device configuration data is processed to determine at least a data retrieval configuration and a data visualization configuration. Data is retrieved from an industrial device using the data retrieval configuration, and a visualization of the data retrieved from the industrial device is presented using the data visualization configuration.
Claims20
One or more computer-readable storage media having program instructions stored thereon to facilitate device configuration for a mobile application associated with an industrial automation environment, wherein the program instructions, when executed by a computing system, direct the computing system to at least:
- receive device configuration data for the mobile application transmitted from an application platform device registry server;
- process the device configuration data to determine at least a data retrieval configuration and a data visualization configuration;
- retrieve data from an industrial device using the data retrieval configuration;
- and
- present a visualization of the data retrieved from the industrial device using the data visualization configuration.
A method to facilitate device configuration for a mobile application associated with an industrial automation environment, the method comprising:
- receiving device configuration data for the mobile application transmitted from an application platform device registry server;
- processing the device configuration data to determine at least a data retrieval configuration and a data visualization configuration;
- retrieving data from an industrial device using the data retrieval configuration;
- and
- presenting a visualization of the data retrieved from the industrial device using the data visualization configuration.
An apparatus to facilitate device configuration for a mobile application associated with an industrial automation environment, the apparatus comprising:
- one or more computer-readable storage media;
- and
- program instructions stored on the one or more computer-readable storage media that, when executed by a processing system, direct the processing system to at least:
