Patent ID: 8689120

Claim:
A system, comprising: a processor, communicatively coupled to a memory that stores computer-executable components, that executes or facilitates execution of the computer-executable components, comprising: a runtime component configured to generate an industrial automation visualization from at least one of a preconfigured visualization profile or a preconfigured visualization template and a display component configured to: interrogate the at least one of the preconfigured visualization profile or the preconfigured visualization template to determine a graphic update rate for a tag name of the industrial automation visualization, wherein in response to the presence of the preconfigured visualization template having a first graphic update rate for the tag name that takes precedence over a second graphic update rate for the tag name in the preconfigured visualization profile, select the first graphic update rate as the graphic update rate for the tag name, and in response to the preconfigured visualization template not being present, select the second graphic update rate as the graphic update rate for the tag name; and instruct the runtime component to employ the determined graphic update rate.
