Method for positioning and a positioning system
First Claim
1. A method configured to record a position of at least one component in a location system of a control system of an industrial facility configured to carry out an industrial process, the method comprising:
- a) creating a model of the facility, including position coordinates for major parts of the facility,b) storing the model in a location system storage system,c) identifying a component in the facility,d) placing a mobile information processing device adjacent the component and detecting position coordinates for the mobile information processing device,e) determining a location of the component in the model of the facility based on the detected position coordinates for the mobile information processing device, andf) storing identification information of the component and position coordinates of the mobile information processing device in the location system storage system.

Abstract
A method for recording a position of at least one component in a location system of a control system of an industrial facility for an industrial process. A model of the facility is created, including position coordinates for major parts of the facility. The model is stored in a location system storage. A component is identified. A mobile information processing device is placed adjacent the component and position coordinates are detected for the mobile information processing device. Identification information of the component and position coordinates of the mobile information processing device are stored in the location system storage.

21. A computer program product, comprising:
-
a non-transitory computer readable medium; and programming instructions recorded on the computer readable medium to control a computer or a computer process to make it perform a method including creating a model of the facility, including position coordinates for major parts of the facility, storing the model in a location system storage system, identifying a component in the facility, placing a mobile information processing device adjacent the component and detecting position coordinates for the mobile information processing device, determining a location of the component in the model of the facility based on the detected position coordinates for the mobile information processing device, and storing identification information of the component and position coordinates of the mobile information processing device in the location system storage system.

22. A control system of an industrial facility configured to carry out an industrial process system, the control system being configured to record the position of at least one component in a location system of the control system, the control system comprising:
-
a mobile information processing device configured to identify the at least one component, a computer program configured to create a model of the facility and store the model in a location system, graphical user interface configured to display the configuration of the industrial facility based on the recorded position of the at least one component, a positioning system configured to determine a position of the mobile information processing device, a location system configured to locate the at least one component based on the determined position of the mobile information processing device, and a computer configured to store identification information of the component and position coordinates of the mobile information processing device in the location system storage system. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44)
