Abstract: A method in a system is provided for handling failures in a process control system comprising a plurality of compute nodes. The process control system comprises at least two instances of virtualized distributed control nodes, VDCNs, deployed in a respective compute node of a cluster of at least two compute nodes, wherein a first VDCN is a primary VDCN controlling an automated process and at least a second VDCN is a backup VDCN. The method comprises detecting that the number of instances of the VDCNs is less than a set number and assigning the role of primary VDCN to the second VDCN. A device, computer program, computer program product and system are also disclosed.

Abstract: A system and a method for connecting electrical load(s) to a first power source and a second power source including a switching device and a controller. The switching device includes a first semiconductor device pair and a second semiconductor device pair. The controller configured to receive a first set of electronic signals corresponding to a condition of the first power source and the second power source, isolate the first power source or the second power source from the one or more loads by transmitting a first set of control signals to the switching device, receive a second set of electronic signals corresponding to the condition of the first power source and the second power source, and connect the first power source or the second power source to the one or more loads by transmitting a second set of control signals to the switching device.

Abstract: A safety network for supporting one or more devices in intermittent use, the safety network being susceptible of verification and/or validation as a safety loop and including a safety controller configured to
assess the integrity of the safety network, and
monitor safety sensors and cause safety actuators to respond to any detected safety events in accordance with safety rules.
The safety network implements safety representatives, each configured to
maintain a virtual representation of an associated device in intermittent use, including at least one virtual safety sensor and/or virtual safety actuator,
make the virtual representation available for integrity assessment and monitoring by the safety controller, and
perform wireless data synchronization between the virtual representation and the associated device.
The virtual representation further includes an activation indicator, which determines a safety rule for the safety controller's monitoring and/or for the safety representative's data synchronization.-

Abstract: A method of calibrating a delta robot, the method including executing an arm movement by moving one driving link relative to other two driving links; measuring a movement of a point in fixed relationship with a tilting body during the arm movement as an arm measurement; executing a tilting movement by tilting the tilting body about a fifth axis; measuring a movement of the point during the tilting movement as a tilting measurement; and calibrating a fourth axis based on a comparison of the arm measurement and the tilting measurement. A method of calibrating the fifth axis, a control system, and a robot system are also provided.
