Procedure to parameterize a field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) used in automation technology, wherein said device is in communication with a server via a first communication network (KN1, KN1', KN1"), wherein said procedure comprises the following steps: - Initiation of the procedure by transmitting a command to the server to parameterize or to make changes to the parameter values of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn); - Transmission of identification information of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) to the server; - Determination of a digital image (F1', F2',..., Fn') of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) stored on the server on the basis of the transmitted identification information, wherein said digital image (F1', F2',..., Fn') contains information about the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) and is designed to simulate or emulate the behavior of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn); - Creation and proposal of at least a parameter set for the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) on the basis of the information relating to the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) that is on the server by means of an application executed on the server; - Selection and confirmation of the proposed parameter set by an operator; and - Transmission of the confirmed parameter set to the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) and parameterization of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) with the transmitted parameter set wherein said procedure is initiated by an operator, wherein, in the event that not enough information is available on the server to create and propose the parameter set, the server asks the operator for additional information concerning the (F1, F2,..., Fn), wherein the information about the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) and the additional information about the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) refer to configuration settings of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) and information that relates to the measuring point, and wherein the questions asked by the server are generated dynamically using cognitive algorithms depending on the information already available, the history of the installation in which the measuring point of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) is located, and the responses provided by the operator. - Initiation of the procedure by transmitting a command to the server to parameterize or to make changes to the parameter values of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn); - Transmission of identification information of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) to the server; - Determination of a digital image (F1', F2',..., Fn') of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) stored on the server on the basis of the transmitted identification information, wherein said digital image (F1', F2',..., Fn') contains information about the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) and is designed to simulate or emulate the behavior of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn); - Creation and proposal of at least a parameter set for the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) on the basis of the information relating to the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) that is on the server by means of an application executed on the server; - Selection and confirmation of the proposed parameter set by an operator; and - Transmission of the confirmed parameter set to the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) and parameterization of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) with the transmitted parameter set wherein said procedure is initiated by an operator, wherein, in the event that not enough information is available on the server to create and propose the parameter set, the server asks the operator for additional information concerning the (F1, F2,..., Fn), wherein the information about the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) and the additional information about the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) refer to configuration settings of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) and information that relates to the measuring point, and wherein the questions asked by the server are generated dynamically using cognitive algorithms depending on the information already available, the history of the installation in which the measuring point of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) is located, and the responses provided by the operator. wherein said procedure is initiated by an operator, wherein, in the event that not enough information is available on the server to create and propose the parameter set, the server asks the operator for additional information concerning the (F1, F2,..., Fn), wherein the information about the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) and the additional information about the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) refer to configuration settings of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) and information that relates to the measuring point, and wherein the questions asked by the server are generated dynamically using cognitive algorithms depending on the information already available, the history of the installation in which the measuring point of the field device (F1, F2,..., Fn) is located, and the responses provided by the operator.
