Abstract

Information related to an operational condition of a machine in a process plant is generated, where the generated information is in a first data format. The information may be generated based on data in a second format. The second format may, for example, correspond to a format used by a certain type or types of process entities, whereas the first format may, for example, correspond to a format used to process operational condition information of other types of process entities in the process plant. Providing operational condition data for various types of process entities in a common format may, for example, assist an operator in ascertaining the relative importance of the operational condition for various types of entities.
