Automation device and automation system

摘要

An automation device comprising a first functional unit, a second functional unit, a first network connection for connection to a first data network and a bus master unit for connecting a peripheral component. The first functional unit includes a first interface unit that is assigned a first network address, and the second functional unit includes a second interface unit that is assigned a second network address. A partitioning device can be used to logically partition an address space of the peripheral component, and a first address space can be directly assigned, as a partitioned part of the address space, to a superordinate computation unit that can be connected through the first network connection.

1. An automation device comprising:
a first functional unit having a first interface unit which is assigned a first network address; a second functional unit operatively coupled to the first functional unit and having a second interface unit which is assigned a second network address; a first network connection operatively coupled to the first functional unit and for connection to a first data network; a bus master unit operatively coupled to the second functional unit and for connecting a peripheral component; and a partitioning device arranged in the automation device, said partitioning device being configured to logically partition an address space of the peripheral component, a first address space comprising a partitioned part of the address space and being directly assignable to a superordinate computation unit which is connectable over the first network connection to the automation device.
