    Abstract: A setup control unit is configured to get activated via a first computer that is to become a node in the process control system and which activation is initiated by a setup tool being brought to the first computer. The setup control unit contacts a configuration control computer, supplies a setup tool identifier to the configuration control computer, accesses system information elements in the configuration control computer, presents system nodes to an operator using the system information elements, receives an operator selection of a system node, sends the node selection to the configuration control computer for registering, based on a setup tool identifier investigation, receives node parameter data associated with the selected system node from the configuration control computer and supplies the first computer with the node parameter data for making it into the selected system node.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for creating software objects in a process control system. The method is performed by a processing tool. The method includes creating a process object in the process control system, the process object having at least two aspects. The method includes instantiating at least one instance of the process object in the process control system. The process object is defined by a control device object type having at least two aspects. The control device object type inherits at least one aspect of the at least two aspects from a control object type and inherits at least one other aspect of the at least two aspects from a device object type. There is also provided a processing tool, a computer program, and a computer program product.

    Abstract: A method for controlling real world objects in an industrial installation, which is performed in a server node and includes the steps of: receiving a connection establishment request having a user identity; authenticating the user identity; establishing a connection; receiving a service request, wherein the service request includes a reference to an aspect object and a reference to an aspect of the aspect object; forwarding the service request and the user identity to a service dispatcher module; determining a target service provider from the reference to the aspect object by querying a directory server module; and sending the service request and the user identity to the target service provider.
