Abstract
A configuration facility is presented and specified, with at least one computer unit and a display device for the configuration of a time-triggered bus system. The bus system has at least two bus nodes and a data bus connecting the bus nodes. At least one node task and at least one transmission task can be executed at the bus nodes. The node tasks can be presented in time sequence in a node task field, the transmission tasks can be presented in time sequence in a transmission task field separate from the node task field, and the node tasks and the transmission tasks can be coordinated with each other by graphic allocation.
Claims14
A configuration facility, comprising:
- a computer in communication with a time-triggered bus system, wherein the time-triggered bus system has at least two bus nodes and a data bus coupling the bus nodes,
- wherein a node task and a transmission task are executed at the bus nodes;
- and
- a display wherein the computer is programmed such that the node task is presented in time sequence in a node task field, the transmission task is presented in time sequence in a transmission task field separate from the node task field, and the node task and the transmission task are executed by the bus nodes according to a configuration generated through a user-manipulatable graphical interface;
- and
- wherein the computer determines a sequence and a schedule for executing the node task and the transmission task according to the configuration.
A computer implemented method, comprising:
- creating a node task program and a transmission task program for a time-triggered bus system, wherein the time-triggered bus system has bus nodes and a data bus coupling the bus nodes;
- presenting the node tasks in time sequence in a node task field;
- and
- presenting the transmission tasks in time sequence in a transmission task field separate from the node task fielt;
- wherein the node task and the transmission task are executed by the bus nodes according to a configuration generated through a user-manipulatable graphical interface.
