CONFIGURATION D'UN SYSTÈME D'AUTOMATISATION INDUSTRIELLE PERMETTANT UNE ACCESSIBILITÉ À L'INTERNET DES OBJETS

摘要

A method (400) of configuring an industrial automation system (1) for intemetof-things accessibility is presented. The industrial automation system (1) has a system hierarchy including low-level devices (10), automation devices (20) and supervision and production control devices (30). The method comprises a) receiving (410), at a computing device (101), a first user input indicative of a functional object (70) representing one or more of said low-level devices (10), and/or one or more of said automation devices (20), and/or one or more of said supervising and production control devices (30) in the industrial automation system (1). The method also comprises b) receiving (420), at the computing device (101), a second user input indicative of a cloud object (72) representing a cloud service provider (3) being external to the industrial automation system (1). The method further comprises c) receiving (430), at the computing device (101), a third user input indicative of a user terminal object (74) representing a user terminal device (4) being external to the industrial automation system (1). The method then comprises d) causing (440), by the computing device (101), the cloud service provider (3) to enable communication between the user terminal device (4) and at least one (2) of the devices (10, 20, 30) in the industrial automation system (1) as represented by the functional object (70) via the cloud service provider (3).
