EXTENSIBLE PROFILES FOR INDUSTRIAL CONTROLLER DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240019851 titled 'EXTENSIBLE PROFILES FOR INDUSTRIAL CONTROLLER DEVICES

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes an industrial integrated development environment (IDE) that allows the creation of add-on bus profiles and add-on controller profiles using a domain-specific language (DSL) script. These profiles can be added to the IDE's device profile library for use in industrial control projects, eliminating the need to write new source code or release updated versions of the IDE software. The IDE system also allows the definition of the physical and logical topology of an industrial control system within the IDE as part of the control system project.

  • The patent application describes an industrial IDE that supports the creation of add-on bus profiles and add-on controller profiles using a DSL script.
  • These profiles can be added to the IDE's device profile library for use in industrial control projects.
  • The technology eliminates the need to write new source code or release updated versions of the IDE software to add new profiles.
  • The IDE system also allows the definition of the physical and logical topology of an industrial control system within the IDE.
  • The defined control system project can be deployed to the actual control system.

Potential Applications:

  • Industrial automation and control systems
  • Manufacturing processes
  • Robotics and machinery control

Problems Solved:

  • Simplifies the creation of add-on bus and controller profiles for industrial control projects
  • Reduces the need for writing new source code or updating IDE software for adding new profiles
  • Provides a standardized and efficient way to define the physical and logical topology of control systems

Benefits:

  • Time and cost savings in developing industrial control projects
  • Improved flexibility and scalability in adding new profiles to the IDE
  • Enhanced efficiency in defining and deploying control system projects


Original Abstract Submitted

an industrial integrated development environment (ide) allows add-on bus profiles and add-on controller profiles to be defined using an industrial domain-specific language (dsl) script. these add-on profiles can then be added to the ide's device profile library for use in industrial control projects. this mitigates the need to write new source code to create these profiles and to release an updated version of the ide software to make these profiles available for use. industrial dsl scripting can also be used to define a physical and logical topology of an industrial control system within the ide system as part of the control system project that will be deployed to the control system.
