Abstract

This paper presents a concept for an intuitive way of establishing physical communication connections between industrial field devices and an universal control device that supports several communication standards. It aims to stimulate the discussion about how a first communication initiation in ad-hoc linked environments has to look like. Key of the presented concept is a reference model that specifies all communication relevant information of a field device, attaching this information to the device, using an inexpensive passive data carrier. Furthermore, this reference model references data like multi-user behavior and user-rights, enabling a flexible user-centered device interaction which satisfies the needs of an industrial environment. With such a reference model most AMI technologies will be much more easy to use in ad-hoc linked environments. The concept presented in this paper is being tested and evaluated in the SmartFactory KL, the intelligent factory of the future.
