AUTOMATION DEVICE COMPRISING AN INTERFACE FOR THE MESSAGE-BASED AND PORT-BASED ACCESS TO AN APPLICATION
摘要
The invention relates to an automation device (24-27) and to an automation system provided with automation devices (24-27) that enable the integration of automation devices that leads to a homogenous automation solution. The automation devices (24-27) comprise at least one interface for the message-based and port-based access to at least one application (20-23) provided by the automation device (24-27). This application (20-23) provides a functionality, uses internet mechanisms, and the interface is written using meta-information. The applications (20-23) of the automation devices (24-27) in the automation system comprise means for directly communicating with one another.
