摘要 |
<p>The present invention provides an automated configurable control system (CCS) for a manufacturing process system, which permits a user to address menus on screen images for initially configuring the process, and for subsequently rapidly adding, modifying, and deleting components and control signals, without revising software programs. The control system utilizes a configuration tool (2) for automatically providing a configuration database file (4) from data inputted by a user into the CCS. A deployment tool (3) automatically downloads the configuration database file to a SCADA application (11) responsive thereto for defining the system, monitoring the status of the processing system, and displaying screen images. The deployment tool also provides the data via a download application (7) to a PLC application (9) for defining the objects and logic of the processing system.</p> |
