Abstract

The invention relates to an automation system, wherein error reaction is improved. This is achieved by providing a method for the treatment of errors in a real time automation system, wherein at least one error reaction function is triggered by at least one processing error and/or access error. The improvement is achieved by providing a method for the treatment of errors using the error reaction function, and by providing a method for the treatment of errors in an automation system which has at least two levels of execution, wherein at least one error reaction function is triggered by at least one processing error and/or one access error on at least one of the other levels of execution.
