Embodiment Construction

[0021] In the following description, for purposes of explanation and not limitation, specific details are set forth, such as specific architectures, interfaces, techniques, etc., in order to provide a thorough understanding. In other instances, detailed descriptions of well-known devices, circuits, and methods are omitted so as not to obscure the description with unnecessary detail. Throughout the specification, the same reference numerals refer to the same or similar elements.

[0022] A typical current approach in industrial process control systems is that alarms are presented to operators in a common list in the order in which the alarms occurred. The current approach of notifying an operator about an alarm does not take into account that the alarms actually come as a sequence. For example, assume a process where a first process parameter (eg, temperature) is too high or too low. This triggers alert 1. Then, after a certain time, an asset involved in the process (eg a bo...

Abstract

A method (10) of monitoring and controlling an industrial process is provided. The method (10) may be performed in process control system (50) and comprises: issuing (11), in the process control system (50), a first alarm (Ai); determining (12), in the process control system (50), at least a first sequence (Si) of alarms which the first alarm (Ai) is part of; and displaying (13), on a display means (25), at least a second alarm (A2) expected to follow the first alarm (Ai) at a future point in time, the second alarm (A2) being part of the at least first sequence (Si) of alarms. A process control system (50) is also provided, and a computer program and a computer program product.

Description

technical field [0001] The technology disclosed herein relates generally to the field of monitoring and control of industrial processes. Background technique [0002] Computer-controlled process control systems are used to control and / or monitor processes such as automotive, chemical, pharmaceutical, food, metal, mining, steel mills, consumer goods, power generation, distribution, pure water and wastewater disposal, refineries, natural gas pipelines and offshore Industrial processes in many different types of industries and utilities such as platforms. Field devices, which are instruments or actuators such as electric motors, valves, valve positioners, and different types of sensors, perform functions within the process, such as driving conveyor belts, opening or closing valves, and measuring process control parameters. Controllers perform control functions to monitor and control field devices. Such control functions may include receiving signals indicative of process cont...
