Systems and methods for storing configuration data in process control systems
First Claim
1. A method of storing configuration data for a Fieldbus device, the method comprising:
- based on a first document type definition in a markup language, generating one or more first documents including one or more block identifiers for identifying one or more function blocks associated with the Fieldbus device, and based on a second document type definition in the markup language, generating one or more second documents associated with the one or more function blocks, the one or more second documents including one or more parameter identifiers for identifying one or more parameters associated with the one or more function blocks.

Abstract
Systems and methods for storing configuration data for process control systems are described. In one embodiment, a method for storing configuration data for a Fieldbus device can include generating one or more first documents based on a first document type definition in a markup language, and generating one or more second documents based on a second document type definition in the markup language. The one or more first documents can include one or more block identifiers for identifying one or more function blocks associated with the Fieldbus device. The one or more second documents can be associated with the one or more function blocks and can include one or more parameter identifiers for identifying one or more parameters associated with the one or more function blocks.

29. A processor program for storing configuration data for a Fieldbus device, the processor program being stored on a processor-readable medium and including instructions to cause a processor to:
-
based on a first document type definition in a markup language, generate one or more first documents including one or more block identifiers for identifying one or more function blocks associated with the Fieldbus device, and based on a second document type definition in the markup language, generate one or more second documents associated with the one or more function blocks, the one or more second documents including one or more parameter identifiers for identifying one or more parameters associated with the one or more function blocks. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36)

37. A system for storing configuration data for a Fieldbus device, the system comprising:
-
a first document type definition in a markup language, a second document type definition in a markup language, and a data processing device in communication with the first and second document type definitions and capable of;
based on the first document type definition, generating one or more first documents including one or more block identifiers for identifying one or more function blocks associated with the Fieldbus device, and based on the second document type definition in the markup language, generating one or more second documents associated with the one or more function blocks, the one or more second documents including one or more parameter identifiers for identifying one or more parameters associated with the one or more function blocks. - View Dependent Claims (38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44)
