Zusammenfassung:The embodiments described herein include a system and a method. In one embodiment, an industrial process control system (10) includes a processor and a link active scheduler (56). The link active scheduler is configured to schedule execution of a macrocycle (58). The macrocycle (58) includes an application timeslot and an asynchronous timeslot. The link active scheduler (56) is further configured to schedule execution of scheduled instructions for a plurality of field devices (28, 30, 32, 34) of the industrial process control system (10) in the application timeslot. The link active scheduler (56) is further configured to schedule execution of unscheduled instructions for the plurality of field devices (28, 30, 32, 34) of the industrial process control system (10) in the asynchronous timeslot. The industrial process control system (10) further includes a macrocycle viewer (162) executable by the processor. The macrocycle viewer (162) is configured to display the macrocycle (58) in a visual format.
