- a brewing module In addition to a brewing module, there may be one or more further units for conveying and adding another beverage component such as, for example, milk.
- the beverage preparation machine can produce a beverage or, generally speaking, a total product of two partial products.
- European Patent Application No. 15 194 735 describes a method of operating a beverage preparation machine to produce a product of multiple partial products, wherein proportions of the partial products can be adjusted by a user on a graphical display of the proportions.
- European Patent Application No. 15 194 667 describes a method of operating a beverage making machine using cooking parameters determined by a serving code of a sachet. In this case, individual preparation parameters can be adapted by a user.
- the option of communication of the beverage preparation machine with an operating device is described, which may be mobile and portable, such as a mobile phone or smartphone.
- Preparation instructions or recipes can be transmitted to the beverage preparation machine with the operating device, or preparation instructions stored in the beverage preparation machine can be modified. It is provided that the preparation is triggered by an operating step, which is carried out by the user on the beverage preparation machine itself.
- the method thus serves to operate a beverage preparation machine, to produce an overall product using a portion pack, the beverage preparation machine having a communication unit designed for wireless communication, and the method having at least the following steps performed by the beverage preparation machine:
- the authentication is transmitted in format in the form of a password.
- a password can be a well-known PAP ("Password Authentication Protocol").

- the password can always be the same or it can be changed systematically.
- the authentication information is determined in a multi-step process in which the beverage maker and the operator panel exchange messages. This may be a known CM-AP (Challenge-handshake authentication protocol).
- the authentication information is determined in another further method, for example, an Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) method, a certificate-based cryptographic method, or a method using an authentication server, such as Kerberos.
- EAP Extensible Authentication Protocol
- Kerberos a method using an authentication server, such as Kerberos.
- the authentication information represents the fact that an HMI device has a specific identity or belongs to a specific group of HMI devices.
- an authentication information and thus an identity or a group affiliation of an operating device, is assigned to specific authorizations or authorization levels.
- authorizations can define which actions an operator panel in the beverage preparation machine can trigger.
- Actions can be machine actions in which a production unit of the beverage preparation machine (for example, a basic unit or an auxiliary unit) are controlled, for example, by operating actuators or hardware units such as pumps, heating elements, valves, etc. to produce a product or to clean the machine.
- Actions may also be the reading or writing of data stored in the beverage preparation machine.
- An authorization may, for example, be a table which has one associated logical value "true” or “false” for one or more actions, which expresses whether the action may be executed.
- an authorization can also be implemented implicitly or procedurally and in the Drink preparation machine may be stored, for example by a program, which processes a variable representing an authorization (for example, with values such as "upper level” or “lower level”) and branches according to the value of this variable and thereby performs an action or not.
- the beverage preparation machine for wireless communication with a plurality of operating devices is configurable, these operating devices are assigned different permissions, and actions of the beverage preparation machine by an operating device in accordance with the authorization assigned to this operating device are triggered or not triggered.

- at least one upper authority and one lower authority are stored in the beverage preparation machine, and the beverage preparation machine is provided for performing machine actions by means of actuators of the beverage preparation machine, wherein
- Action in particular a manufacturing step, may be triggered
- the lower authorization includes that no machine action, in particular a production step, may be triggered. This makes it possible to assign different operator control devices such different authorizations, which has the consequence that HMI devices are authorized with an upper authorization to trigger machine actions, and not those with a lower authorization.
- at least one average entitlement is additionally storable in the beverage preparation machine, wherein
- the medium authorization includes that at least one machine
- Action in particular a manufacturing step, may be triggered
- Other embodiments have groups with several lower, middle, or upper permissions.

This implies that the entitlement stored in the beverage maker associated with the first operator is an upper entitlement, and that this has been successfully verified before allowing the transfer or storage in the beverage maker.
- the basic authentication information and the remote authentication information are identical, for example equal to one common key or a cryptographic "salt", which is used to generate one or more keys.
- the basic authentication information and the remote authentication information are different from each other and are the basis for the authentication of the second operator device in the beverage preparation machine.
- they may be a public and a corresponding secret key of a "public-key" encryption method.
- a second communication medium, via which the first operating device transmits the remote authentication information to the second operating device is different from a first communication medium via which the first operating device communicates with the beverage preparation machine.
- the first operator device transmits the remote authentication information to the second operator device via a communication that acts only in the near range, in particular by one of:
- An acoustic signal a near-end radio protocol, such as Bluetooth or NFC.
- the visual code can also be displayed by means of a temporally changing brightness of the display.
- the acoustic signal can be sent by means of a loudspeaker of the first operating device and received by a microphone of the second operating device.
- the assignment of an authorization to an operating device is realized by HMIs of the same authorization using the same (ie common) authentication information and this (common) authentication information is associated with an authorization stored in the beverage preparation machine authorization.
- the authentication information represents the fact that an HMI device belongs to a specific group of HMI devices, all of which have the same authorization.
- an authorization stored in the beverage preparation machine and associated with the authentication information can be determined.
- This authorization applies to all HMI devices in this group. Based on this permission can then be determined whether a specific action or a read or write access in the beverage preparation machine may be triggered by the HMI device.
- the assignment of an authorization to an operating device is realized by each of the operating devices using an individual authentication information and this individual authentication information is assigned an authorization stored in the beverage preparation machine authorization.
- the authentication information represents the fact that an HMI device is a specific individual, for example, with a one-to-one identifier, and no other HMI device exists with the same authentication information.
- a stored authorization allocated in the beverage preparation machine and the authentication information can be determined. This authorization applies to exactly this one HMI device (although other, same authorizations may exist, but their assignment to an HMI device is expressed by means of a further assignment between an HMI device and an authentication information).
- a specific action or a read or write access in the beverage preparation machine may be triggered by the HMI device.
- a particular action in the beverage preparation machine in particular the manufacturing step, may only be triggered if a corresponding trigger command is received in a radio network defined by the beverage preparation machine itself as the base station.

- the implementation of the final confirmation step 67 can be done in various ways, for example by a "push” method, in which the beverage preparation machine 1 actively sends a message to the operating unit 4, or by means of a "polling” method, in which the operating unit 4 the status the beverage preparation machine 1 queried repeatedly.
- Manufacturing error notification step 68 in which a communication error message is sent by the communication unit 15, that an error occurs in producing the entire product occured.
- the generation error message may contain information about the type of error and / or its remedy or refer to such information which is stored, for example, in the HMI device 4 and displayed.
- Manufacturing defect recovery step 69 where a user can troubleshoot based on the manufacturing fault message.
- Error information step 70 in which an error information is sent by the communication unit 15, with a confirmation that the release command has been received but the beverage preparation machine 1 is not ready to produce the entire product.
- the error information depends on the type of verification step that has determined this. It can refer to the absence of components and / or an optional unit, or to an operating state of the beverage preparation machine or to inconsistencies between the preparation instructions and the current state of the beverage preparation machine.
- Troubleshooting step 71 in which a user can be used on the basis of the error information to troubleshoot and / or adjust the preparation rule.
- FIG. 3 shows a flowchart of a sequence of a method for operating the beverage preparation machine 1. This method adjusts the authorization Execution of a manufacturing process safely. Unless stated otherwise, the steps are carried out by the beverage preparation machine itself. The steps are the following:
- Receiving step 81 a wireless communication unit 15 of the beverage preparation machine 1 receives a triggering command and associated authentication information.
- the authentication information can be transmitted as a key.
- the authentication information may be determined by a multi-step method of exchanging messages between the beverage preparation machine 1 and an HMI device 4.
- Verification step 82 it is checked on the basis of the authentication information, whether the trigger command from an operating device 4a, 4b, 4c, which is entitled to trigger this particular action in the beverage preparation machine 1, in particular the remote triggering of a production. For example, this is done by using the authentication information, a permission stored in the beverage preparation machine 1 is determined, which specifies whether a particular action, in particular the triggering of a manufacturing step, may be triggered.
- Branch 83 depending on whether the HMI device 4 a, 4 b, 4 c is authorized or not.
- Authorization error step 90 i which is sent by the communication unit 1, error information that the trigger command was received but the operating device 4a, 4b, 4c to trigger this particular action, in particular the remote triggering of Manufacture, not ready. This error information can be displayed on the operating unit 4.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 can be combined with one another. For example, from FIG.
- the checking step 62 whether the beverage preparation machine 1 is ready to produce the whole product.
- the first operating device 4 a is assigned an upper authorization (or "administrator authorization"), which makes it possible to trigger a production process in the beverage preparation machine 1.
- the third operating device 4c does not have this authorization, but only a "lower authorization” or "user authorization”.
- this preparation rules can be adapted and transmitted to the Getränkezurungsmaschme 1, the triggering of the production but must take place on the beverage preparation machine 1 itself, i. by actuating an operating element on the operating unit 14 of the beverage preparation machine 1. This can ensure that not any user can uncontrollably trigger a first 11 Ilungs revitaliz.
- the second operating device 4b may be assigned a medium authorization (or "subadministrator"). This average authorization allows triggering the production of a product by this second control unit 4b.
- the assignment of an average authorization to an operating unit 4 can be done only by means of an operating unit 4, which is an upper authorization zugordnet.
- the first operator control device 4a with the upper authorization can thus assign a medium authorization to another, for example the second operator device 4b.
- This can be realized by the first operating device 4a assigns a key or generally an authentication information to the second operating device 4b, wherein this authentication information in the beverage preparation machine 1 is assigned an average authorization. This authentication information is transmitted to the second operating device 4b from the first operating device 4a.
- the fourth communication connection 54 which is a different channel than the channel via which the operating devices 4 communicate with the beverage preparation machine 1.
- This other channel is preferably designed for transmission only in the near range, for example according to an NFC standard or Bluetooth standard, in contrast to a WiFi standard for communication with the beverage preparation machine 1.
- the other channel may also be unidirectional, for example by an optical Signal, such as a barcode or Morse code, which is output by the first operator control device 4 and received or scanned by the second operator device 4b. As a unidirectional signal and an acoustic signal can be used.
- the information transmitted by the signal can for example be modulated onto a carrier signal, in particular by modulation in the frequency domain and / or modulation in the time domain.
- the acoustic signal can be generated by means of a loudspeaker or a vibrating element.
- a vibration element or vibration alarm can be a motor with a rotating mass with imbalance.
- the authentication information associated with the second operator device 4b may be unique to each of the operator devices 4: Enliser as a combination of a common administrator key with an individual identification key, which identifies only the HMI device 4 but does not correspond to an authorization. Then, to determine the authority to initiate a manufacturing process in the beverage preparation machine 1, it may be examined whether the administrator key for the beverage preparation machine 1 is valid. For determining whether an operating device 4a has an upper authorization, then the identification key is used. When setting up a beverage preparation machine 1, it can be determined that exclusively the first operating device 4a that is used for setting up has this upper authorization. Then, only the administrator key can be transmitted to the second operating unit 4b for assigning an average authorization. The second operating device 4b can therefore, because it has a different identification key than the first, have no upper authority and can not modify permissions.
- each authorization for such a combined key is assigned an authorization which specifies the authorization for triggering a production process and also for assigning (average) authorizations to other operating devices 4. Then, when assigning an average authorization, the combined key is transmitted to the second operating unit 4b, and in the beverage preparation machine 1, the assignment of the combined key with a medium authorization is stored.
- the various keys or authentication information need not be sent from and generated in the first HMI device 4a. It is relevant that the authentication information is shared. It will generating a key pair from a private and a public key also referred to as "sharing the authentication information".
- the transmission of authentication information can also be done via a public communication network 5 using appropriate cryptographic methods.
