To produce a controller or regulator (1), a control or regulation process
(3) is first designed and simulated on a development system (20). The
process source code (25) for a target system (2) arranged in the
controller or regulator (1) is then generated, and also a description
file (28, 29) in HTML and/or XML format which, among other things,
describes the parameters for the controller or regulator (1). Tags which
characterize the parameters are used in the description file (28, 29).
The description file (28, 29) is then converted, in a web server
generator (30), into data and source code (31, 34) for a web server (5)
which can run on the target system (2). In this context, the web server
generator (30) and/or web server (5) use/uses the tags to insert input
and output elements which can be used for setting and reading the
respective parameters. The present system can be used for easily
producing an interface for controlling the process (3) running on the
target (2), which interface can be used by any client computer (7)
without special software.
