CONCEPT FOR TRANSMITTING TIME SYNCHRONIZED DATA FROM A LOCAL TIME CONTROL OF AN AUTOMATION SYSTEM TO AT LEAST ONE PARTICIPANT IN THE AUTOMATION SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to a method for transmitting time-synchronized data from a controller (203) having a local time (301) of an automation system (201) to at least one subscriber of the automation system (201), wherein the automation system (201) generates a reference time (303). The method includes the idea of matching the local time (301) of the controller (203) with the reference time (303) of the server (205) so that a time stamp can be added to data with time stamps of Accordingly, it is possible, for example, to compare data from different controllers at the same time with each other and then to process data from different controllers, which have their local time analogous to the reference time (303) of the server (205). The invention further relates to a controller (203) for an automation system (201). The invention further relates to a computer program.
