INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION CONTROL SYSTEM
First Claim
1. One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having program instructions stored thereon for enhancing an automation environment that, when executed by a processor, direct the processor to at least:
- identify at least a primary data verification value generated by a primary control process that provides control in an industrial automation environment;
identify at least a secondary data verification value generated by a secondary control process associated with the primary control process; and
compare the primary data verification value with at least the secondary data verification value to determine if an error has occurred with respect to the primary control process.

Abstract
One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having program instructions stored thereon for enhancing an automation environment is provided. When executed by a processor, the program instructions direct the processor to at least identify at least a primary data verification value generated by a primary control process that provides control in an industrial automation environment, and to identify at least a secondary data verification value generated by a secondary control process associated with the primary control process. The program instructions also direct the processor to compare the primary data verification value with at least the secondary data verification value to determine if an error has occurred with respect to the primary control process.
