    摘要: Systems and methods for controlling electric vehicle chargers using central control consoles for controlling and communicating with industrial equipment. The electric vehicle chargers operate as clients in a client-server configuration with a dedicated OCPP server. The OCPP server communicates with a control console using either of two communications paths-one path uses a direct HTTP connection with the control console. For this path, the control console operates as a web-enabled client. For the other path, multiple communications protocols are used and conversions between these protocols are effected using a conversion module and a MODBUS server. The MODBUS server communicates with the OCPP server. The MODBUS server also communicates with the control console by way of the conversion module and a control server. The control console is thereby able to control multiple pieces of industrial equipment along with the electric vehicle chargers without needing to be compliant with the OCPP protocol.

    摘要: A device by which RFID data can pass from the RFID reader, or from the plant floor PLC and reader, to business applications at the enterprise level. The RFID tag date is easily integrated into a PLC for integration with other equipment. The security of the overall system is maintained by only allowing tag information to be available to authenticated users by means of active or passive tags and the use of certificates and encryption during the data transmission. Multiple RFID reader device drivers can be customized to support any number of readers available in the marketplace, with each RFID reader including its own data structure, protocol and handshaking methodology for communication. Additionally, a set of run time and configuration tools is provided which allow for an easier integration of RFID tag data into the enterprise architecture for use by other business applications.

    摘要: An automation interface is provided for interacting with industrial controllers. The automation interface provides for programming, editing, monitoring and maintenance of industrial controllers programmatically from a local or remote location. The automation interface component is adapted to communicate with industrial controllers by integrating a computer process interface library into the automation interface component. The computer process interface library exposes the automation interface component to client application processes, so that the client application processes can communicate with the at least one industrial controller programmatically. The automation interface is provided with functionality for downloading, uploading and programming of control programs to the processors of the industrial controllers.

    摘要: A method and system for generating programming code and/or configuration data for programmable controller and the networks on which they operate is disclosed. In one embodiment, programming code is generated on a centralized server having a web-enabled engineering tool. The engineering tool operates on client devices that are in communication with the server over a network, such as the Interntet. Preferably, the engineering tool runs in a browser application (or other network-interfacing-application) on the client device and a user generates the programming code on the server with the aid of the client device. By centralizing the engineering tool, which may contain a configuration editor and a configuration management tool having version management functionality, a new business paradigm for providing engineering tool services to customers having programmable controllers. In addition, new methods and tools for collaborative engineering of programming code are enabled.

    摘要: A programmable logic controller has a wireless communication interface. A radio frequency identification chip set is mounted to, and is in communication with, the active elements of an integrated circuit on one or more circuit boards in the programmable controller. The chip set provides for radio frequency communication between the controller and other components either inside the controller or external to the controller. Identification information recorded on the chip may be interfaced over a network, particularly, an on-line network such as the Internet.

    摘要: An industrial control system includes a plurality of control devices providing control signals to direct an industrial process and a web access module including a web server, an Internet interface and a control network interface. Each of the control devices includes web page data concerning a respective web page associated with the respective control device. The Internet interface is couplable to a remote device via the Internet, and the control network interface is coupled to the control devices. The web access module is able to receive requests from the remote device to access the web pages associated with the control devices. In response to the requests, the web access module obtains the web page data concerning the web pages for which access has been requested, processes the data at the server, and sends data signals related to the data onto the Internet to be received by the remote device.
