Configuration method and control system

Abstract

The present invention discloses a synchronization method and a control system for configuration files. The synchronization method of configuration files disclosed by the present invention comprises the steps as follows: the configuration of a project is divided by module beforehand and saved in different configuration files or configuration folders; the local configuration files or configuration folders with modification authorities are modified; the configuration files or configuration folders which are modified are saved. The control system disclosed by the present invention comprises a server and a work station. The server is used for storing all the configuration files which are stored in different configuration folders by a project according to module. The work station is used for modifying the local configuration files or configuration folders with modification authorities stored in the server and saving the configuration files or configuration folders which are modified in the server. The invention has the effect that the maintenance of the configuration files is more accurate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to industrial automation control, in particular to a method for synchronizing configuration files and a control system. Background technique [0002] The industrial control configuration software is composed of two parts: the system development environment and the system operation environment; the system development environment is the working environment that the automation engineering designer must rely on for the implementation of his control scheme and the system generation of the application program with the support of the configuration software , by creating a series of user data files, the final executable file is generated for use when the system operating environment is running; the user data files are called configuration files. In the control system, multiple automation engineering designers create an industrial control system development environment by maintaining the configuration file system on multiple workstations. ...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] In the process of research and practice of the prior art, the inventor found that the prior art has the following problems: the prior art saves the configuration of a project in a file according to different modules according to different control actions or functions. There is no authority limit for a workstation to modify the configuration file. Engineers operating multiple workstations can modify any part of the configuration file and save it to the server after modification. At this time, the server only saves the configuration file modified by the last engineer, and other engineers The modified configuration file is not saved or is improperly replaced, resulting in an error in the entire configuration file of the project
