Modular System and Associated Method

摘要

A method for setting-up a module of a modular industrial control system so that the module is easily integrated into the modular system is disclosed along with a method for setting-up a modular industrial control system for connecting a new module to the modular industrial control system, a module for forming part of a modular industrial control system comprising a plurality of modules and a controller for controlling the plurality of modules, a modular industrial control system, and a corresponding computer readable medium. The method for setting-up a module of a modular industrial control system so that the module is easily integrated into the modular system comprises programming a module for use in a modular industrial control system with a name corresponding to the name used by a control code of a controller of the modular industrial control system to control the module.
