Abstract

Production plants have been complicated by the diversification of products. In order to control complicated production plants, distributed process control is a powerful approach. In the development of a distributed process control system, it is difficult to develop its software because distributed controllers complicatedly interact with each other. For that reason, the function block model, which is the specification language for distributed process control logic, is being standardized in IEC61499-1. A distributed process control programming tool for function block description is proposed. It is possible to describe control programs hierarchically by using function blocks. The GUI of this tool supplies multi-windows which can simultaneously display function blocks on different hierarchical levels. In this tool, inputted programs can also be verified by a simulation. This tool is applied to the control program description of an automatic carrier system. It has been confirmed that the control program is completely described and simulated by using this tool.

开发一种分布式过程控制编程工具，用于功能块描述

产品的多样化使生产工厂变得复杂起来。为了控制复杂的生产工厂，分布式过程控制是一种强有力的方法。在分布式过程控制系统的开发中，由于分布式控制器之间相互作用复杂，给软件开发带来了困难。因此，IEC61499-1正在对功能块模型(分布式过程控制逻辑的规范语言)进行标准化。提出了一种用于功能块描述的分布式过程控制编程工具。用功能块分层地描述控制程序是可能的。该工具的GUI提供了多个窗口，可以同时显示不同层次的功能块。在这个工具中，输入的程序也可以通过仿真来验证。该工具应用于某自动载波系统的控制程序描述。应用该工具对控制程序进行了完整的描述和仿真。
