SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SMART SELECTION AND BUILDING OF INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION CONTROL SYSTEMS FROM INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION CONTROL LIBRARIES AND OBJECTS

摘要

A graphical user interface (GUI) for designing an industrial automation system via an electronic display includes a design window and a first accessory window. The GUI presents a library visualization representative of a plurality of objects within the first accessory window, each object represented by an icon and corresponding to a respective industrial automation device. The GUI receives a first input indicative of a first selection of a first object from the library, presents the first object in the design window, receives a second input indicative of a second selection of a second object from the library, presents the second object in the design window, determines a suggested next action based on historical data including a plurality of industrial automation system designs having the first and second objects, and updates the GUI to display a notification comprising the suggested next action.
