Embodiment Construction

[0014] figure 1 An automation system constructed in accordance with the present invention is shown in block diagram form. The automation system comprises an electronic processing unit 1 , for example in the form of a control device with a programmable memory. The processing unit 1 processes in a known manner by means of technical process-specific process signals and derives therefrom setting signals and commands for influencing the technical process. The input and output signals pass through the process interface 42 (the process interface is in figure 1 In the exemplary embodiment shown below) the communication with the production plant of the technical device, ie with measuring sensors, sensors, actuators etc., is exchanged, for example via a fieldbus or also via a simple multi-wire connector. Furthermore, data buses, production devices and monitoring devices, as well as numerous devices, can be connected to the processing unit 1 via communication interfaces. Parts of this...

Abstract

An automation system for controlling a technical process having an electronic processing unit, input / output (I / O) modules for inputting and outputting process signals to operating means of the technical process, such as sensors and actuators, and terminal modules for connecting the operating means to the I / O modules. The automation system also includes a programmable matrix module that can be used by the electronic processing unit to dynamically associate, i.e., connect, one or more I / O modules with one or more terminal modules.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an automation system with programmable matrix modules. Background technique [0002] Automation devices usually have a large number of input modules and / or output modules (EM), which are also referred to as I / O modules for short. In this regard, the electronic processing unit (usually a program-controlled processor) in the automation equipment preferably receives the measurement signal of the technical process or the measurement signal of the equipment and outputs adjustment signals or control instructions to the production equipment of the technical process. In order to connect the I / O module to these technical production devices, for example to sensors and actuators, in most cases via process cables and fieldbuses, a large number of terminals. [0003] Automation devices are usually structured in such a way: direct coupling, ie a type of connection from the electronic processing unit via the I / O modules directly to the term...
