Industrial Device Address Mapping for Parameter Identification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Industrial IoT platforms face challenges in accessing and analyzing data from machine tools due to proprietary technologies and lack of open technical protocols, making it difficult to associate raw data with device status, especially after factory modifications.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that define a screening library with expected attribute values to identify device parameters by comparing actual status values with expected values, automatically determining corresponding storage addresses, thus simplifying the association process and reducing reliance on human experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If experienced engineers manually observe and identify the association between device parameters and storage addresses, then the identification can be completed, but the process is time-consuming and labor-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the manual mechanical observation process with an automated computer-based system that uses algorithms to identify device parameters and their storage addresses, eliminating the need for engineers to manually examine and record parameter associations
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables automatic self-identification of device parameters by the controller itself, where the parameter identification module autonomously determines parameter values and their corresponding storage addresses without requiring external manual intervention
2Adaptability or versatility
If factory settings are modified in the user's factory, then the device can be adapted to specific needs, but the original factory settings are destroyed and it becomes very difficult to obtain the association between device parameters and storage address
Solution Approach 1:
The patent establishes a parameter identification module and screening library before factory modifications are made, creating a baseline reference that can be used to track and identify parameter associations even after the device is customized for specific applications
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements a feedback mechanism where the parameter identification module continuously monitors and identifies device parameters, comparing actual parameter values against the screening library to maintain accurate associations between parameters and storage addresses even after factory modifications
3Quantity of substance
If a large amount of data is acquired from industrial devices, then comprehensive information is obtained, but it becomes difficult to associate raw data with device status
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a parameter identification module as an intermediary between raw data acquisition and device status analysis, which systematically identifies and associates parameter names with their storage addresses and values, making the connection between raw data and device status explicit and manageable
Solution Approach 2:
The system segments the data processing task into distinct components: data acquisition, parameter identification, address mapping, and status analysis. The parameter identification module specifically handles the segmentation of parameter associations, breaking down the complex task of linking raw data to device status into manageable steps

AI summary
An address identification method, apparatus, system, storage medium, a processor and a terminal are disclosed. In an embodiment, the method includes: defining a screening library including at least one expected attribute value describing an expected state value of a device parameter to be addressed in an operating mode of an industrial device; acquiring a data group including an actual state value generated in the operating mode and an address where the actual state value is stored; for each address, extracting an actual attribute value, stored in the address, of the actual state value; comparing the actual attribute value with the expected attribute value, determining the actual state value corresponding to the actual attribute value which complies with the expected attribute value, and determining, from the data group, an address corresponding to the selected actual state value; and taking the selected address as a final address and outputting same.
