A Building Management System (BMS) generates and presents a user interface to a user. The user interface displays building automation and control logic as human-readable text including interactive text modifiable by the user. The user interface allows the user to more easily understand complex control logic and make modifications to the control logic. The BMS is also presents equipment graphics on the user interface based on metadata read from controllers. The controller metadata includes information about building equipment operated by the controller and one or more sensors associated with the building equipment.

A facility management system and method for planning and/or controlling a facility, in particular a fabrication facility, including a plurality of components. The facility management system includes at least one apparatus adapted to load component data object cubes (CDOCs) from a data cube library (DCL) stored in a database of the facility management system and to link the component data object cubes (CDOCs) to component data objects (CDOs) representing components of the facility. The loaded component data object cubes (CDOCs) linked to the component data objects (CDOs) include parameters of the respective components and are editable in a data edit model of the facility management system.

Devices, methods, and systems for voice control of components of a facility are described herein. One computing device apparatus includes a memory, and a processor configured to execute executable instructions stored in the memory to receive a voice command or voice query from a user, determine location context information associated with the computing device, and determine which component or components of the facility are associated with the voice command or voice query based, at least in part, on the location context information associated with the computing device.

Operator System and method for identifying and displaying operator accesses to process objects within the scope of process management and process monitoring such that an efficient coordination of operator accesses is achieved.

Devices, methods, and systems for voice control of components of a facility are described herein. One computing device apparatus includes a memory, and a processor configured to execute executable instructions stored in the memory to receive a voice command or voice query from a user, determine location context information associated with the computing device, and determine which component or components of the facility are associated with the voice command or voice query based, at least in part, on the location context information associated with the computing device.

A controllable device, such as a set top box, responds to a transmission received from a one of a plurality of controlling devices of differing capabilities by entering into a one of a plurality of operating modes wherein the one of the plurality of operating modes entered into corresponds to the capabilities of the controlling device from which the transmission originated.

A data processing device according to one aspect of the present invention includes a first definer configured to define a transfer function of a process which is a control target on the basis of an output value from the process and a manipulated variable of the process, an analyzer configured to analyze frequency characteristics of the output value from the process, a second definer configured to define a target sensitivity function on the basis of a sensitivity function, a first frequency band included in the frequency characteristics, and a predetermined attenuation factor, the sensitivity function being defined based on the transfer function of the process and at least one control parameter of a controller for controlling the process, and an adjuster configured to adjust the at least one control parameter to decrease a difference between the sensitivity function and the target sensitivity function.

Disclosed is a numerical control system, comprising a local NC device and a remote server connected therewith, and the remote server operates to process non-real-time tasks, comprising G code programming, coding and machining simulation, and to realize value-added functions. The server is connected with the NC device via a client disposed on the NC device, and the client operates to conduct virtual operation on the remote server via a HMI of the local NC device by using virtualization technology, thereby controlling operation on the server on the local NC device, and controlling NC machining by cooperation of the server and the local NC device. The invention also discloses a control method for the system. The invention is capable of realizing diversified, elastic and individual function configuration of the whole numerical control system, and improves the machining efficiency of the numerical control system.

The present invention discloses a moveable robot that includes a processing control system; a rotation mechanism, a projection system that can be titled by the rotation mechanism to a first position to project a first image on a horizontal surface outside the body of the moveable robot, wherein the projection system is configured to be titled by the rotation mechanism to a second position to project a second image on a wall surface, and an optical sensing system configured to detect the user's movement, location, facial expression or gesture over the first image. The processing control system can interpret user's inputs based on the user's movement, location, facial expression or gesture over the first image projected on the horizontal surface outside the body of the moveable robot. The processing control system can control one or more outputs of the moveable robot based on the interpreted user's inputs.

A method performed by a deploy service for coordinated deploy to RT services in an automation system. The method includes, from each of a plurality of engineering services, obtaining at least one configuration collection, each configuration collection being addressed to a specific one of the RT services. The method also includes forwarding each of the obtained configuration collections to the RT service to which it is addressed. The method also includes, for each of the configuration collections, in response to the forwarding thereof, receiving an acknowledgement from the RT service to which it was forwarded, indicating that the RT service is able to apply the configuration collection. The method also includes, in response to receiving the acknowledgements for all of the configuration collections, instructing each of the RT services from which the acknowledgements were received to apply the configuration collections.
