Abstract

See full text

For operating a field device in process automation, automatic cyclic monitoring of a communication interface of an arithmetic unit takes place. If a field device is connected to this communication interface, this is automatically detected. Thereafter, field device operating software is automatically started when the field device can be allocated to the field device operating software. After startup of the operating software, automatic determination of the suitable device driver takes place, which device driver is then uploaded. In this manner, operation of field devices, in particular in complex field device networks, may be greatly facilitated.
