System Management User Interface Providing User Access To Status Information For Process Control System Equipment Including Displayed Propagated Status In A Navigation Pane

View page
US Patent:
20070239351, Oct 11, 2007
Filed:
Apr 11, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/402633
Inventors:
Thomas Sherrill - Upton MA, US
Maria Nguyen - Mansfield MA, US
Donald Wayland - Attleboro MA, US
Kristen Garrison - New Bedford MA, US
Brian Barry - Cumberland RI, US
Naredla Murty - South Grafton MA, US
Assignee:
Invensys Systems, Inc. - Foxboro MA
International Classification:
G01C 21/00
US Classification:
701207000
Abstract:
A system management human-machine interface application for use in a process control system is described herein that enables users to view/monitor information regarding system status and performance and to initiate changes to the operation of system equipment, checkpoint control stations and execute diagnostics. A system management graphical user interface (GUI) includes a number of interface features that enhance the accessibility of system status information to users. Such enhancements include rendering selectable diagnostic information (e.g., online/offline status) on a system component navigation view. The GUI also provides access to a variety of system information including: alarms, messages, watched system management parameters, and a legend for symbols displayed in a system management navigation tree. Other enhancements include: a search function for quickly locating a device in the system to render detailed information, a navigation tree that displays equipment status via icons, and propagating fault statuses up to a highest level of the navigation tree.

Runtime Human-Machine Interface For Process Control Having Enhanced Graphical Views Of Detailed Control Information

View page
US Patent:
20070260982, Nov 8, 2007
Filed:
Apr 11, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/403190
Inventors:
Donald Wayland - Attleboro MA, US
Anne Linscott - Plainville MA, US
Thomas Sherrill - Upton MA, US
Assignee:
Invensys Systems, Inc. - Foxboro MA
International Classification:
G06F 3/00
US Classification:
715700000
Abstract:
An HMI application supporting interaction between an operator and runtime control processor information is described herein. The HMI application provides graphical user interface-driven functionality including, among other things supporting a horizontal hierarchical view selection menu. Furthermore, visual alarm indicators associated with the view selection menu guide an operator through each view selection level to a view showing an alarm's source. The horizontal view selection menu is traversable by both a graphical pointer and keyboard strokes (e.g., dynamically assigned function keys). Enhanced faceplate overlays provide access to detailed information from a control block such as alarm limits and tuning parameters. Such detailed information is accessed by first exposing a menu of detailed information, and thereafter rendering the detailed information within a work area of the faceplate separate from the menu from which the detailed information type is selected for the control block.
