Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a device monitoring and control system for monitoring and controlling the state of a device.
The present invention relates to an equipment monitoring / control system that monitors the status of station equipment such as an automatic ticket vending machine, an automatic ticket gate, and an automatic payment machine installed at a railway station and controls each station equipment.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a railway station is provided with station equipment such as an automatic ticket vending machine, an automatic ticket gate, an automatic payment machine, etc., and monitors the state of these station equipment and controls each station equipment. An equipment monitoring and control system is provided.

[0003] The state of station equipment is constantly monitored via a monitor installed at a monitoring center of the equipment monitoring and control system. If an equipment error such as a ticket jam occurs in the station equipment, this abnormality is detected. The monitoring center is automatically notified, and the monitoring center that has received the notification of the occurrence of the abnormality performs device control such as the cancellation of the abnormality through the operation panel.

[0004] At this time, a call is made between a staff member at the monitoring center and the user via an interphone arranged adjacent to the station service equipment, and a response to the user is made.

[0005] Conventionally, automatic ticket gates, automatic ticket vending machines,
In order to operate and monitor station equipment such as automatic checkout machines, equipment error indicators, reset switches, intercoms that enable conversations with customers are provided, etc. Stationary surveillance equipment operating in a closed state was installed at the station.

[0006] These monitoring devices are installed in places where station staff are constantly deployed, and the station staff can know the abnormal state of the station service equipment with this monitoring device. Judge whether it is an abnormal condition to go to or an error that can be released remotely, make a call by intercom to the customer and provide guidance. Has been released.

Further, a customer unfamiliar or unfamiliar with the station presses the "call" button provided on the station equipment even if no abnormality has occurred in the station equipment, and turns on the interphone of the monitoring device. Various information and guidance have been received through conversations with the calling station staff.

[0008] Further, if the image of the ITV monitor confirms, for example, that the user is confused in front of the vending machine without knowing the operation method of the automatic ticket vending machine, the station staff sends the station equipment from the monitoring device side. The company also calls the intercom and provides operational guidance to customers.

However, since the installation location of the monitoring device is fixed, it is necessary that at least one station staff is always on standby at this location to engage in the monitoring of station equipment and the service of intercom. Was.

[0010] Such a situation is the same for the station premises broadcasting system and the conductor train seat management system.

[0011]

However, in the conventional station service equipment monitoring / control system described above, since a device abnormality is monitored via a monitor installed at the monitoring center, it is necessary to have a resident at the monitoring center. There was a problem that the burden on the staff was large.

Further, when the monitoring center is notified of the equipment abnormality, the equipment abnormality is released through the operation panel, and then a staff member is dispatched to the site to perform processing such as a ticket jam. There is a problem that it takes time, and the user is made to wait during that time.

Further, it is difficult to obtain information at a necessary place when a station attendant or a customer needs it, and when the acquirer selects the information he needs, he or she does not have to select from all the information. The disadvantage is that it takes a lot of time and effort.

[0014] This situation is the same for the station premises broadcasting system and the conductor seat management system for conductors.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and in a station service radio system, sends request data and a mobile identification number from a portable terminal to a station service apparatus control device, A first object of the present invention is to provide a station premises broadcasting system configured to broadcast a broadcast to a corresponding home by a wireless switchboard based on a home connection request from a device and audio data.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and in a station service radio system, a conductor seat management system for a conductor capable of managing train seats on a conductor side having a portable terminal. Is a second problem.

[0017]
