Abstract

PURPOSE:To relieve the load of judgement by a supervisor by not displaying an installation signal with low urgency but printing out it only upon the receipt of a speech signal with high urgency of corresponding processing. CONSTITUTION:When a fault signal is inputted to a receiver 1 of a center equipment, a signal is discriminated as a speech signal from a talking device 9 and an installation signal from installed devices 10, 11 by a discriminator 2 and the speech signal is displayed and printed out. Moreover, the installation signal is displayed and printed out normally and when the speech signal is inputted, since a picture display device 6 is to prepare the display of the speech signal, the installation signal is not displayed but printed out only. Thus, since the installation signal with low urgency is displayed, a trouble that even if the speech signal with high urgency is inputted, it is not displayed and the countermeasure by the supervisor is delayed is avoided.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a remote monitoring device that monitors equipment installed in a plurality of buildings via a telephone line.

[Conventional technology]

Conventional remote monitoring equipment monitors equipment such as air conditioning equipment and power receiving/transforming equipment installed in each predetermined unit, such as a building, and communication equipment installed in the elevator car within the building. It is connected to the center device via a communication line, and when there is a failure of the equipment or a call request from the telephone device, it displays the failure status, building name, etc. on the image display device installed in the center device. , a printing device prints the information, and an operator of the center device responds to a call request from the communication device. Note that related devices of this type include, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 59-200396.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The above-mentioned conventional technology is based on air conditioning equipment, which has a low priority for response processing, and can respond to a call request from a telephone device that has a high priority for response processing and must be responded to by an image display device. There was a problem in that abnormality notifications from equipment such as power receiving and transforming equipment monopolized the image display device and could not be displayed on the image display device, resulting in a delay in response processing.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a remote monitoring device that solves the above-mentioned problems of the prior art and allows a monitoring person to quickly respond to a call request from a communication device with a high degree of urgency.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention deals with equipment such as air conditioning equipment and substation equipment installed in each predetermined unit such as a building, and equipment installed in the elevator car in this building. A communication device is connected to the center device via a communication line, and when there is a failure of the equipment or a call request from the communication device, the failure status, building name, etc. are displayed on the image display device installed in the center device. In the remote monitoring device, the display is displayed, the information is printed by a printing device, and the operator of the center device responds to a call request from the communication device. A discriminating device is provided to determine whether a signal is coming from a telephone device, and a switching means is provided to connect only the signal from the equipment to the printing device when a signal from the telephone device is being input. .

[Effect]

When a failure signal is input to the receiving device of the center device, this signal is discriminated by a discrimination device into a call signal from the communication device and a facility signal from the equipment, and the call signal is displayed as an image and printed. In addition, equipment signals are usually displayed as images and printed, but when a single call signal is input, the image display device must be left open to display the call signal, so the equipment signal is only printed without being displayed. shall be. Due to this.

It is possible to prevent a situation in which an equipment signal with a low level of urgency is displayed as an image, so even if a call signal with a high level of urgency is input, the image cannot be displayed, causing a delay in response processing by the supervisor.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

The figure is a block diagram of a remote monitoring device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The terminal device 8 connects and monitors the air conditioning equipment 10, power receiving and substation equipment 11 installed in the building, and the communication device 9 installed in the elevator car, and when an abnormality is detected, it sends the abnormality signal. is transmitted to the center device C via the telephone line 7. The center device C includes a receiving device 1 that receives this abnormal signal, a discriminating device 21 that classifies the received abnormal signal into a call signal and an equipment signal, a call signal processing device 3 that processes the call signal from the determining device 2, and a call signal processing device 3 that processes the call signal from the identifying device 2. Equipment signal processing device 4 for processing, image display device 6 for displaying signals from each processing device. It is composed of a printing device 5 that performs printing.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained.

Equipment connected to the terminal device 8, such as air conditioning equipment 1
When detecting an abnormality of 0, the terminal device 8 transmits this signal to the center device C via the telephone line 7. The abnormality signal from the terminal device 8 is received by the receiving device 1 and then sent to the discriminating device 2. The discrimination device 2 checks the received abnormal signal, and since it is a signal from equipment, it sends it to the equipment signal processing device 4 as an equipment signal. The equipment signal processing device 4 edits the received equipment signal into a data format for image display and printing, and sends it to the image display device 6 and the printing device 5, respectively. The printing device 5 prints the received data and the image display device 6
will be displayed as an image to prompt the lifeguard to take action.

On the other hand, when an abnormality is detected in the communication device 9 in the elevator car connected to the terminal device 8, this signal is similarly transmitted to the center device @C via the telephone line 7. The discriminating device 2 which received the signal via the terminal checks this signal and, since it is a signal from the telephone device 9, sends it to the telephone signal processing device 3 as a telephone call signal. The call signal processing device 3 is
The received call signal is edited into a data format for image display and printing, and sent to the image display device 6 and printing device 5, respectively. At the same time, the facility signal processing device 4 is also notified that the call signal has been input. The equipment signal processing device 4 that has received this information displays the equipment signal image display device 6 that is normally used.
The display on the printer 5 is stopped and the display is switched to only be printed on the printing device 5. still.

At this time, if the equipment signal is being displayed on the image display device 6, it is stopped and preparations are made for displaying the call signal.

Thereafter, after a certain period of time has passed after the processing of the call signal is completed, the suspension of displaying the equipment signal on the image display device 6 is canceled.

In this way, in this embodiment, when a call signal with a high degree of urgency for response processing is received, equipment signals with a low degree of urgency are only printed without being displayed as images, so those that are displayed as images are processed preferentially. This reduces the amount of judgment work required by the monitor.

Although this example shows an example in which there is one printing device 5 and one image display device 6, the same procedure can be performed even when a plurality of printing devices 5 and 6 are installed.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, in the present invention, abnormal signals received from a terminal device via a telephone line are divided into call signals with a high degree of urgency for response processing and equipment signals with a low degree of urgency, and the call signals are prioritized. Since the image is displayed, the supervisor who performs the response process can appropriately and efficiently respond to the occurrence of an abnormality.
