Embodiment Construction

[0021] The organizational model of the hierarchical system can be distributed over the various elements of the enterprise. These elements include system representations maintained on higher level business servers, as well as representations of control elements that provide systems such as programmable logic controllers and / or other industrial control components. In one aspect, an industrial automation system is provided. The system includes at least one controller for instantiating a portion of an organizational hierarchy. A communications component in the controller interacts with at least one other portion of the organizational hierarchy to facilitate data exchange and control between components of the enterprise.

[0022] Note that as used in this application, terms such as "component", "hierarchy", "model" mean computer-related entities, or hardware, hardware and A combination of software, software, or software in execution. For example, a component may be, but is not l...

Abstract

An organizational model of a hierarchical system can be distributed across various elements of an enterprise. Such elements include representations of the system that are maintained on higher-level business servers and other representations that serve control elements of the system such as programmable logic controllers and / or other industrial control components. In one aspect, an industrial automation system is provided. The system includes at least one controller to instantiate a portion of an organizational hierarchy. A communications component in the controller interacts with at least one other portion of the organizational hierarchy to facilitate data exchange and control between various components of an enterprise.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to industrial control systems, and more particularly to distributing and manipulating data on a data hierarchy shared between organizational models and industrial control systems. Background technique [0002] Industrial controllers are specialized computers used to control industrial processes, manufacturing equipment, and other factory automation such as data collection or networking systems. At the heart of an industrial control system is a logic processor such as a programmable logic controller (PLC) or PC-based controller. For example, a programmable logic controller is programmed by a system designer to operate a manufacturing process via a user-designed logic program or user program. User programs are stored in memory and are generally executed by the PLC in a sequential fashion, but routines such as instruction jumps, loops and interrupts are also common. Associated with the user program are a number of...
