In addition, at least one network subscriber (800) is designed as a network distributer (120, 130, 140), having multiple in/output ports PX, wherein the in/output ports PX, to which respective segments (300, 305, 310, 315, 320) with further network subscribers (800) are connected, are characterised as end ports. The master subscriber (105, 110) assigns a respective port address IDY to the end ports. Furthermore, the master subscriber (105, 110) assigns the port address IDY of the end port, to which the segment (300, 305, 310, 315, 320) with further network subscribers (800) is connected, as an identifier to a telegram which is intended for a segment (300, 305, 310, 315, 320) with further network subscribers (800) for processing. When the network distributer (120, 130, 140) receives a telegram with a port address IDY of an end port of the network distributer (120, 130, 140) as an identifier, the network distributer (120, 130, 140) outputs the telegram directly via the in/output port PX of the network distributer (120, 130, 140) corresponding with the end port of the port address IDY.
In an automation network (100) comprising network subscribers (800), the network subscribers (800) are connected to one another via a data line network (200).

The master subscriber (105) is also designed to indicate, with a telegram element in the telegram to be sent, that access has been granted to the telegram for processing by the network subscribers (800). Furthermore, the network distributer (120,130, 140) is designed to process a telegram received via the first in/output port P0 when the telegram element of the telegram indicates that access has been granted for the network subscribers (800) for the processing of the telegram.

The at least one unblocker (120, 130, 140) is assigned at least one segment (300, 305, 310, 315, 320, 325). When the at least one unblocker (120, 130, 140) receives a blocked telegram, the at least one unblocker (120, 130, 140) checks whether the blocked telegram is intended for the segment (300, 305, 310, 315, 320, 325) assigned to the at least one unblocker (120, 130, 140) on the basis of the telegram identifier in the blocked telegram, in order to release the blocked telegram as an unblocked telegram for processing by the slave subscribers (115, 125, 135, 145, 155, 160, 165, 170, 175, 180, 185), as long as the blocked telegram is intended for the segment (300, 305, 310, 315, 320, 325) assigned to the at least one unblocker (120, 130, 140).
The invention relates to a method for detecting network subscribers in an automation network using interrogation telegrams, such that a protocol network subscriber inputs subscriber information into the interrogation telegram and sends the interrogation telegram to a subsequent network subscriber. If there is no subsequent network subscriber, the network subscriber sends the interrogation telegram back to the configuration subscriber. A network distributor inputs port information into the interrogation telegram and sends it back to the configuration subscriber. The configuration subscriber generates other interrogation telegrams and sends these. The network distributor emits these to the other input/output port.

DISTRIBUTOR NODE, AUTOMATION NETWORK AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING TELEGRAMS
The invention relates to an automation network which has multiple network segments and in which both fragmenting subscribers (10, 20, 30, 40), which support a fragmentation method, and standard subscribers (50), which do not support the fragmentation method, can be provided. A distributor node (2) in the automation network has at least one input/output interface (201, 202, 203, 204) which is connected to a network segment. The switching device (205) in the distributor node (2) checks whether a subscriber (6) in a network segment to which a telegram (3) is to be transmitted supports the fragmentation method and whether the telegram (3) to be transmitted is fragmented. If the subscriber (50) does not support the fragmentation method and the telegram to be sent is fragmented, the switching device (205) in the distributor node (2) assembles the telegram fragments (301, 302) into the telegram (3) and then forwards the assembled telegram (3) to the subscriber (50).
The invention relates to an automation communication network comprising at least one distributor node with a plurality of input/output interfaces. Data is exchanged between subscribers by means of telegrams B, C, to which priority levels (200, 210) are assigned. The distributor node interrupts the transmission of a telegram B with a first priority level (200) on an input/output interface if the distributor node has received a telegram C with a second priority level (210) which has a higher value than the first priority level (200), on a further input/output interface. The distributor node terminates the interrupted telegram with the first priority level (200), which forms a first fragment B-l, in a defined manner by the distributor node transmitting first fragmentation information (340) at the end of the first fragment B-1. A remaining portion of the telegram with the first priority level, which has not yet been sent by the distributor node, forms a second fragment. The distributor node generates second fragmentation information for the second fragment and buffers the second fragment together with the second fragmentation information. After the telegram C with the second priority level (210) has been transmitted, the distributor node transmits the second fragment of telegram B with the first priority level (200) together with the second fragmentation information. A subscriber for which the telegram B with the first priority level (200) is intended assembles the first and the second fragment B-1 of the telegram B on the basis of the first and the second fragmentation information (340).

The invention relates to a method for driving at least one rotor (200) in a planar drive system, said rotor (200) having at least one device for generating a magnetic field, in particular a magnet. The rotor (200) can be moved on a drive surface which is formed by stator modules. The stator modules have a magnetic field generator. First, a virtual two-dimensional potential curve (300) is ascertained for the rotor (200), wherein a target point (260) of the rotor (200) has an attractive potential within the virtual two-dimensional potential curve (300). A virtual force vector (250) is then ascertained at a first position (252) of the rotor (200), said force vector being produced from the virtual two-dimensional potential curve (300) and having a vector direction and a vector length.

The invention relates to a method for optimizing data processing in a programmable logic controller (PLC). The PLC has a control task, which comprises a plurality of executable programs. At least two programs of the control task each have at least one parallel processing portion having a work package having a plurality of sub-tasks. The parallel processing portions in the respective programs are assigned a priority having a specified priority level. The particular priority levels are inserted into a data structure as soon as execution of the program has reached the parallel processing portion. At least one parallel processor core checks if there are entries in the data structure and, if there are entries, said parallel processor core completes sub-tasks from the work package of the program that has a priority level in the first position of the entries in the data structure. During a program cycle, an expected computing throughput of the control task is continually evaluated and at least one of the priority levels of the parallel processing portions of the respective programs is dynamically modified if the computing throughput of the control task is increased thereby.
