A control system may include a display device and a processor that receives one or more inputs from the display device. The processor may generate a cause and effect visualization to be depicted on the display device, such that the cause and effect visualization represents a cause and effect logic configured to control one or more operations of a first set of industrial devices based one or monitored conditions. The processor may receive the inputs via the display device, such that the inputs include one or more configuration settings associated with the operations of the first set of industrial devices, the monitored conditions, or any combination thereof. The processor may then control the one or more operations of the first set of industrial devices based on the cause and effect logic and the inputs.

An industrial automation component, a computer program and a computer-readable medium and method for configuring an industrial automation component, wherein at least one feature of the industrial automation component that is not configurable with an engineering system supporting the component, non-supported feature, is configured by interpreting a description of a configuration of the at least one non-supported feature with an on-board compiler of the component and integrating the interpreted description to a basic configuration having been generated with the engineering system and with respect to at least one further feature, supported feature, of the component.
