| 20110202145 | AUTOMATIC DEVICE PARAMETER BINDING METHOD AND SYSTEM - The present invention provides techniques for automatically binding device parameters to an input and output interface. Doing so enables dynamic parameters to be available to the core firmware engine. More specifically, there is no input and output data in the configuration software domain required for mapping the parameters. Rather, the configuration software may directly access the device parameters during the logic execution. This is achieved in a library by representing the parameter repository and the EPATH pointing to each parameter from the configuration software domain. | 08-18-2011 |
| 20110202147 | MULTIPLE BOOLEAN INPUTS AND OUTPUTS FOR DEVICE FUNCTION BLOCKS - The present invention provides techniques for splitting bundled inputs and outputs into separated Boolean inputs and outputs for function blocks of automation devices. More specifically, previously-defined bundled inputs and outputs may be used, whereas separated Boolean inputs and outputs may be used as well. In other words, the newly added Boolean inputs and outputs do not replace, but rather compliment, the previously defined bundled inputs and outputs. | 08-18-2011 |
