Arrangement, storage medium and method for providing information which is obtained via a device type manager, and transmitted in an extensible mark-up language format or a hypertext mark-up language format
First Claim
1. An information arrangement, comprising:
- a first processing system communicatively coupled to a second processing system, wherein the second processing system comprises at least one Device Type Manager (“
DTM”
), and is communicatively coupled to at least one field device, wherein the at least one DTM comprises at least one property associated with the at least one field device, and wherein the first processing system is adapted to receive data associated with the at least one property from the second processing system, and to transmit at least a portion of the data associated with the at least one property in one of an Extensible Mark-up Language (“
XML”
) format and a Hypertext Mark-up Language (“
HTML”
) format.

Abstract
An information arrangement, storage medium and a method for providing information in a process using such arrangement, are provided. Specifically, a first processing system is communicatively coupled to a second processing system, and the second processing system is communicatively coupled to one or more field devices. The second processing system includes a Device Type Manager (“DTM”), and the DTM includes properties associated with the field device. Moreover, the first processing system is adapted to receive data associated with the properties from the second processing system, and to transmit the data associated with the properties in an Extensible Mark-up Language (“XML”) format or a Hypertext Mark-up Language (“HTML”) format.

17. An information arrangement, comprising:
a processing system communicatively coupled to at least one field device, wherein the processing system comprises at least one Device Type Manager (“
DTM”
), wherein the at least one DTM comprises at least one property associated with the at least one field device, and wherein the processing system is adapted to transmit at least a portion of the data associated with the at least one property in one of an Extensible Mark-up Language format and a Hypertext Mark-up Language format.

18. A method for providing information in a process, comprising the steps of:
-
receiving data associated with at least one property via at least one Device Type Manager (“
DTM”
), wherein the at least one property is associated with at least one field device; and
transmitting at least a portion of the data associated with the at least one property in one of an Extensible Mark-up Language (“
XML”
) format and a Hypertext Mark-up Language (“
HTML”
) format. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)

28. A storage medium comprising executable instructions for providing information in a process, wherein, when the executable instructions are executed by a first processing system, the executable instructions perform the steps comprising of:
-
receiving data associated with at least one property via at least one Device Type Manager, wherein the at least one property is associated with at least one field device; and
transmitting at least a portion of the data associated with the at least one property in one of an Extensible Mark-up Language format and a Hypertext Mark-up Language (“
HTML”
) format.
