At present, with the increase of business functions, new types of equipment are constantly introduced, and the shapes and types of equipment are also increasing. This single display method cannot accurately display special equipment. For example, in a device consisting of two machine frames, if the positions of the boards in the two machine frames are not all placed horizontally, and the size and shape of the boards are inconsistent, the existing graphic display technology cannot follow the real The display of the equipment structure brings inconvenience to the construction and production of the equipment.

Detailed ways

The core of the present invention is to correspond to the corresponding frame models for the different structures of the frame in various devices through modeling design, and store the slot scale information in each frame model. In this way, when it is necessary to view the device structure in the network, all the frame models and slot scale information corresponding to the device are obtained from the stored information, and then the display graphics of the device are automatically generated according to the information.

In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

With reference to Fig. 3, Fig. 3 is the realization flowchart of an embodiment of the inventive method, comprises the following steps:

Step 301: Establish various chassis models, and store slot scale information in each chassis model.

Since all the chassis are arranged from top to bottom in a device, it is not necessary to consider the placement relationship of the chassis in the device, and only need to record the sequence of the chassis. There can be multiple slots in a chassis, and the position of the board depends entirely on the position of the slots. Therefore, for a chassis, if you want to know the structure in the chassis, you only need to determine the positional relationship of the slots. That is to say, it can be considered that the graphics of a device are composed of one or more chassis graphics, and each chassis graphics is determined by the number and positional relationship of its internal slots.

Based on this relationship, the present invention utilizes the principle of example model design to establish various frame models. That is to say, the same model can correspond to multiple instances, and the sizes and shapes of these instances are consistent, such as chassis and slots in different equipment. The difference between these instances is that the services in the instances are different. For example, instance frame 1 and instance frame 2 have the same shape and size. The difference is that a board is inserted in the first slot of instance frame 1, while the instance There is no board in the first slot of chassis 2.

Because there are a large number of instances of the chassis in the equipment, but according to the structure, the number of chassis models is very limited. In this way, the position information corresponding to each slot in the chassis model can be established by defining the panel and saved to the database at the same time, and then mapped out through the view, so that the entity data can share the position information.

The establishment process of the slot scale information in the chassis model can be realized by means of graphic design, and the specific process will be described in detail later.

Step 302: When it is necessary to view the device structure in the network, obtain all the chassis models and slot scale information corresponding to the device.

To make it easier for equipment managers to inquire about the chassis model, you can pre-configure the chassis model number and arrangement sequence corresponding to each device in the network on the network management device. In this way, corresponding to each device, the chassis model number corresponding to the equipment and its arrangement sequence can be obtained according to the configuration information in the network, and then the chassis model corresponding to the chassis model number can be sequentially obtained from the stored information and its slot scale information.

If the model or structure of the equipment in the network changes, the configuration information can be modified, so that the administrator can accurately find the information of all the chassis models corresponding to the equipment.

It has been described above that a device is composed of several chassis, therefore, a device graphic is composed of the graphics of these chassis, and a chassis graphic is composed of several slot graphics. Each shelf is associated to a shelf model in the database. In this way, all the shelves belonging to this shelf model can share this part of information.

Step 303: Generate a presentation graphic of the device according to the slot scale information.

After obtaining the model of each chassis and its slot scale information, generate the graphics of each chassis according to the following process:

Suppose the actual width of the slot(k) is Swidth and the height is Sheight,

First, calculate the position, height, and width of the slot(k) that should be placed in the graph.

The actual abscissa of slot(k) in the graph=the X coordinate scale of slot(k)×Swidth+Sxi;

The actual ordinate of slot(k) in the graph=the Y coordinate scale of slot(k)×Sheight+Syi;

The actual width of the slot(k) in the graph = the X coordinate scale of the slot(k)×Swidth;

The actual height of the slot(k) in the graph=the Y coordinate scale of the slot(k)×Sheight.

Among them, Sxi and Syi are the vertex coordinates of the chassis.

Secondly, draw the graph of slot(k) according to the calculated actual position of slot(k).

Finally, if there is a board inserted in slot(k), draw the board according to the size ratio of slot(k).

After all chassis graphics are drawn according to the above process, the display graphics of the device are generated.

First, according to the calculated specific values, use development tools (such as C++, Java, etc.) The specific dimensions that come out combine the above graphics to realize the complete equipment graphics.

With reference to Fig. 4, Fig. 4 is the flowchart of setting up machine frame model in the method of the present invention, comprises the following steps:

Step 401: Obtain the basic information of the frame model, which includes information such as height, width ratio, number, position, and size of the frame.

Step 402: Check whether similar panel design information exists in the database. If yes, go to step 403; otherwise, go to step 404.

Step 403: Display graphics according to the data saved in the panel of the previously designed frame model. Then, go to step 406 .

Step 404: Initialize the display graphics according to the position number of each slot model in the frame model.

If it is the first time to design the panel graphics of the chassis model, an initial graphics display can be provided, for example, the graphics shown in Figure 5. There are five basic slots in the chassis model, namely S1, S2, S3, S4, and S5.

Step 405: Design the chassis model graphics as required.

Enlarge or reduce the graphics and positional relationship of each slot as needed. For example, the graphic of the chassis model after the design is completed is shown in FIG. 6 .

Step 406: Obtain the scale occupied by each slot in the frame model.

The scale occupied by each slot in the chassis model refers to the position of each slot in the chassis, and the ratio information of the height and width of each slot to the height and width of the chassis model.

Suppose i is the serial number of slot Si in the frame model, the vertex coordinates of the frame model are [X, Y], the vertex coordinates of Si are [SiX, SiY], the height of the frame model is SFH, and the width is SFW, Then for slot Si:

The abscissa scale of Si = |siX-X|/SFW;

The ordinate scale of Si = |siY-Y|/SFH;

Si width scale = siW/SFW;

Si height scale = siH/SFH.

In this way, the position scale information of each slot can be calculated.

Step 407: Save the scale information in each slot and machine frame model to the database.

In this way, a frame model is established. When there is a frame corresponding to the model in the equipment to be viewed, the information is extracted from the database to fully display the frame. Similarly, the frame model information of other frames corresponding to the device is extracted from the database, and a complete device panel structure diagram can be displayed based on all the information.

The following example further details the graphic presentation process of the device of the present invention.

Referring to Fig. 7, the device has two chassis S71 and S72. Among them, there are five slots S711, S712, S713, S714, and S715 in the frame S71, and only the slots S711, S712, and S714 are inserted with boards; the frame S72 has four slots S721, S722, S723, The S722 and S724 are inserted with boards.

If there are no shelf models of these two types in the database, the panel design is first performed on the shelf models of the two shelf models.

After the design, the panel design result of the chassis model corresponding to chassis S71 is shown in Figure 8, and the panel design result of the chassis model corresponding to chassis S72 is shown in Figure 9.

After the design is completed, the frame model and slot scale information shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9 are stored in the database.

When the graphics of the equipment shown in Figure 7 are needed, the above information is obtained from the database to generate the graphics of the equipment.

It should be noted that it is also possible to pre-configure the information of whether each slot is a board on the management device. When displaying the device graphics, only the graphics of the slots of the boards in each chassis can be displayed according to the configured information of whether each slot is a board. draw.

With reference to Fig. 10, Fig. 10 has shown the functional block diagram of device of the present invention:

The device includes: a frame model building module S1, a storage module S2, a query module S3, and a graphic generation module S4. Among them, the frame model building module S1 is used to build various frame models; the storage module S2 is used to store the slot scale information in each frame model; the query module S3 is used to obtain from the storage module S2 when the equipment structure needs to be checked. All the machine frame models corresponding to the equipment and their slot scale information; the graphics generation module S4 is used to generate the display graphics of the equipment according to the slot scale information.

The frame model building module S1 includes a scale calculation module S11 and a writing module S12. Wherein, the scale calculation module S11 is used to calculate the scale occupied by each slot in the frame model; the writing module S12 is used to write the scale information into the storage module.

The graph generation module S4 includes: a groove position calculation module S41 and a drawing module S42. Wherein, the groove position calculation module S41 is used to calculate the vertex coordinates, width and height of the groove according to the groove position scale information; the drawing module S42 is used to calculate the vertex coordinates, width and height information of the groove according to the groove position calculation module Draw the graphics of the chassis and the slots in it.

In order to enable the graphics generation module S4 to generate the display graphics of the device according to the slot scale information, the scale calculation module S11 needs to base the basic information of the chassis model (including the height of the chassis, the height ratio, the number of slots, positions, sizes, etc.) and other information), calculate the scale of each slot in the frame, including the position of each slot in the frame, the ratio of the height and width of each slot to the height and width of the frame model.

For the specific calculation process, reference may be made to the foregoing description of the method of the present invention, which will not be repeated here.

In this way, after the design of each frame model is completed and the position scales between the slots in the frame model are calculated, it is persisted, and the writing module S12 writes the information into the storage module S2.

When it is necessary to query and view the device structure in the network, the query module S3 queries the storage information in the storage module according to the configuration information in the network, and sequentially obtains the frame models and slot scale information corresponding to the device. Then, the display graphics of the device are generated by the graphics generating module S4 according to the slot scale information.

After obtaining the information of each machine frame model and its slot scale, firstly, the slot position calculation module S41 generates the graphics of each machine frame according to the following process:

Suppose the actual width of the slot(k) is Swidth and the height is Sheight,

First, calculate the position, height, and width of the slot(k) that should be placed in the graph.

The actual abscissa of slot(k) in the graph=the X coordinate scale of slot(k)×Swidth+Sxi;

The actual ordinate of slot(k) in the graph=the Y coordinate scale of slot(k)×Sheight+Syi;

The actual width of the slot(k) in the graph = the X coordinate scale of the slot(k)×Swidth;

The actual height of the slot(k) in the graph=the Y coordinate scale of the slot(k)×Sheight.

Among them, Sxi and Syi are the vertex coordinates of the chassis.

Then, the graph of slot (k) is drawn by the drawing module S42 according to the calculated actual position of slot (k). After the graphics of all the slots in a chassis are drawn, a complete chassis graphics can be displayed. After all the chassis graphics are drawn, the complete equipment graphics are generated.

Of course, in the process of drawing the slot graphics above, according to the configuration information of the device, if there is a board inserted in the slot (k), then draw the board according to the size ratio of the slot slot (k), otherwise, you can only draw An empty slot, and indicates that the slot has no board. The final graphics format can be determined according to the needs. For example, according to the information about whether each slot in the actual configuration is equipped with a board, the status of the slot in each chassis is identified, and stripes or background colors are added to the graphics of the slots with boards. To show the difference from the slot without the plugboard.

While the invention has been described by way of example, those skilled in the art will appreciate that there are many variations and changes to the invention without departing from the spirit of the invention, and it is intended that the appended claims cover such variations and changes without departing from the spirit of the invention.
