24、components for Function Control and Data Access within a Client/Server architecture. The technical report is a result of an analysis and design process to develop standard interfaces to facilitate the development of components by multiple vendors that shall interoperate seamlessly. A device-specific
25、 software component, called DTM (Device Type Manager), is supplied by the field device manufacturer with its device. The DTM is integrated into engineering tools via the FDT interfaces defined in this specification. The approach to integration is in general open for all kinds of fieldbusses and thus
26、 meets the requirements for integrating different kinds of devices into heterogeneous control systems. To ensure the consistent management of a plant-wide control and automation technology, it is necessary to fully integrate fieldbusses, devices and sub-systems as a seamless part of a wide range of
27、automation tasks covering the whole automation life-cycle. This integration also requires a consistent look and feel of device specific components.

29、implementation of a Device Type Manager (DTM) with regard to the user interface and its functions. These guidelines and rules are part of the FDT specification and are intended to ensure that all users are provided with clear and consistent user interface functions and features across DTM devices in

39、of the state machine diagrams in this document is defined in IEC 62453-1 and in ISO/IEC 19501:2005. 4 Principles for designing DTM user interfaces The design of GUIs for DTMs is based on the following general principles for user interface design 4,5. These are recommendations for good engineering pr
40、actice. For additional fundamentals of user interface design, please see the available literature. Visibility of system status The system should always keep users informed about what is going on, through appropriate feedback within an acceptable time limit. Match between system and the real world Th
41、e system should speak the users language with words, phrases and concepts familiar to the user, rather than system-oriented terms. Follow real-world conventions, making information appear in a natural and logical order. PD CLC/TR 62453-61:2009TR 62453-61 IEC:2009(E) 9 User control and freedom Users
42、often choose system functions by mistake and need a clearly marked “emergency exit“ to leave the unwanted state without having to go through an extended dialogue. Support undo and redo. Consistency and standards Users should not have to wonder whether different words, situations, or actions mean the
43、 same thing. Follow platform conventions. Error prevention A careful design which prevents a problem from occurring in the first place is even better than good error messages. Recognition rather than recall Make objects, actions, and options visible. The user should not have to remember information
44、from one part of the dialogue to another. Instructions for use of the system should be visible or easily retrievable whenever appropriate. Flexibility and efficiency of use Accelerators - unseen by the novice user - may often speed up the interaction for the expert user so that the system can cater
45、to both inexperienced and experienced users. Allow users tailoring of frequent actions. Aesthetic and minimalist design Dialogue should not contain information which is irrelevant or rarely needed. Every extra unit of information in a dialogue competes with the relevant units of information and dimi
46、nishes their relative visibility. Help users recognize, diagnose, and recover from errors Error messages should be expressed in plain language (no codes), precisely indicate the problem, and constructively suggest a solution. Help and documentation Even though it is better if the system can be used
47、without documentation, it may be necessary to provide help and documentation. Any such information should be easy to search, focus on the users task, list concrete steps to be carried out, and not be too large. 5 Benefits from the FDT users point of view Using DTMs compliant with this style guide en
48、ables the user to operate more efficiently and more safely. The user is able to parameterize and manage the data of devices from various manufacturers in a uniform way. Therefore, the user is presented with a clearly structured concept regardless of the manufacturer or the type of the device. Detail
49、s or requirements for developers of a DTM are given within the following clauses. Guideline and rules are defined for uniform user guidance: DTM user interfaces are used and displayed in engineering systems and stand alone tools in the same manner regardless of the device or DTM manufacturer or communication protocol employed; uniform behavior of a DTM. This includes: persistent storage, behavior in multi-user envir
