摘要 |
The present invention relates to a system, a method and a control device for generating a message, mainly an alarm message in the control device (1) of an automation system (4). In order to simplify the use of current transmission systems, this invention involves transmitting the message (3) from a control device (1) to a predetermined receiving device (2) in the form of an e-mail via the internet and/or intranet (20). In a first advantageous embodiment, the control device (1) introduces into the identification field (12) of the message (3) a message identifier (19a) which is individually associated with the respective message (3). After receiving a message (3), the receiving device (2) sends an acknowledgement message (10) to the control device (1), wherein said acknowledgement message (10) contains the identifier (19b) associated with the related message (3) in the form of an acknowledgement identifier (19b). The comparison between the acknowledgement identifier (19b) in the acknowledgement message (10) and the message identifier (19a) in the transmitted message (3) allows for the unambiguous allocation of the acknowledgement message (10) of the transmitted message (3).
