Device and method for monitoring the operation of an industrial installation
First Claim
1. Device for monitoring the operation of an industrial installation, wherein the installation comprises functional members, the device comprising groups of detectors that detect the operating status of each of the functional members, wherein each group of detectors is associated with a particular functional aspect that is to be monitored, and a display unit comprising means of communicating the operating statuses picked up by the detectors, wherein the means of communicating the operating statuses comprises arranged between the detectors and the display unit, means for processing the operating statuses picked up by the detectors and for controlling the selective displaying, on the display unit, of information relating to an overall operating status of each group of detectors.

Abstract
The invention relates to a device for monitoring the operation of an industrial installation (3) comprising functional members (5), the said device (1) comprising groups (G1, G2 . . . Gn) of detectors (D1,1, . . . Dn,j) that defect the operating status of the installation (3) these each being associated with a particular aspect of the monitoring, and a display unit (11) comprising means (13) of communicating the operating statuses picked up by the said detectors (D1,1, . . . Dn,j). The device comprises, arranged between the said detectors (D1,1, . . . Dn,j) and the display unit (11), means (15) for processing the operating statuses picked up by the said detectors (D1,1, . . . Dn,j) and for controlling the selective displaying, on the said display unit (11), of information relating to overall operating statuses of predetermined groups (G1, G2 . . . Gn) of detectors (D1,1, . . . Dn,j).
