Embodiment Construction

[0031] figure 1 The energy automation facility 10 is shown for the sake of clarity not in figure 1 Control and monitor the power supply network shown in . The energy automation system 10 has a first field device 11 , wherein the first field device is, for example, an electrical protection device or a control technology device. Such and other field devices for the automation of energy supply networks are often also referred to as so-called “IEDs” (IED=“Intelligent Electronic Device”, Intelligent Electronic Devices) in technical terminology. In the following, the term "field device" is used not only for protection devices, control technology devices, measuring devices (RTUs), but also for other automation devices for energy automation systems which are usually included in the concept IED.

[0032] The energy automation system 10 also contains further field devices 12a to 12g. In order to exchange data telegrams with one another, the field devices 11 and 12 a to 12 g have comm...

Abstract

In order to provide a method for configuring a field device (11, 12a-12g), in which even a user who has no in-depth knowledge of the decisive control mechanisms for communication can configure with a high degree of safety against wrong settings, The invention proposes that the graphical editor ( 30 ) has a first display area ( 31 ) and a second display area ( 32 ), said first display area containing a graphical representation ( 33 ) of the functions of the first field device ( 11 ). , said second display area contains a graphical representation (36a, 36b) of at least one other field device (12a-12g) connected to said first field device (11) and a description (37a, 36b) of possible output signals 37b); collecting a user selection of an output signal of at least one other field device (eg 12a) and a user selection of a function of said first field device (11); and generating a user selection for said first field device (11) and a parameter set of at least one other field device (eg 12a), said parameter set containing instructions for configuring a communication link between the first field device (11) and at least one other field device (eg 12a), The instructions specify, when a selected output signal of at least one other field device (eg 12a) is present, the transmission of a data telegram to the first field device (11) and the activation of the selected first field device (11). function. The invention also relates to a correspondingly arranged energy automation system ( 10 ).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for configuring field devices of an energy automation system and to a data processing device by means of which such a configuration can be carried out. Background technique [0002] Energy automation installations are used for the automation of the power supply network and usually contain so-called field devices, which are arranged at main components of the power supply network near. Such main components may be, for example, cables and wires, transformers, generators, electric motors or converters. Usually, electrical field devices record measured values ​​which describe the operating state of the individual main components of the power supply network. These measured values ​​can be stored or forwarded to control and monitoring components superordinate to the individual field devices. In addition, the field devices, which are designed as so-called "protective devices", can be designed to check the recorded measured...
