Automation Equipment and Operator System
First Claim
1. In automation equipment that includes at least one automation device (9) and an operator system (22) for visualization and operation of a sequencer (SFC) of a sequential control, wherein objects (24) created from the sequencer (16) are processed during a RUN operation of the automation device, wherein the objects (24) parameterize and activate CFC functions (15) loaded into the automation device (9) and defined by a Continuous Function Chart editor, and wherein an interaction and link between the objects (24) and the CFC functions (15) are effected via process values (18) and control signals (19), the operator system (22) comprising:
- an interpreter for interpreting and processing of the sequential control and for activating the CFC functions (15) in the automation device (9);
an engineering interface for modifying the sequencer (16) of the sequential control; and
an interface for the visualization and operation of the sequencer (16) of the sequential control.

Abstract
Automation equipment (21) including at least one automation device (9) and an operator system (22) for the visualization and operation of at least one sequencer (SFC) of a sequential control. Objects (24) created from the sequencer (16) are processed during a RUN operation of the automation device (9). The objects (24) parameterize and activate CFC functions (15) loaded into the automation device (9) and defined by a Continuous Function Chart editor. The interaction and link between the objects (24) and the CFC functions (15) are effected via process values (18) and control signals (19). Modification of the sequential control is enabled during the RUN operation of the automation device (9).
