[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention controls a plurality of loads under the control of a plurality of loads, controls the respective loads, and notifies the central monitoring control device of the respective load states. The present invention relates to a collective terminal.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, various kinds of electric equipment such as building lighting equipment, air conditioning equipment, and crime prevention equipment are often intensively monitored and controlled by a supervisory control system device. A building supervisory control system device is a central supervisory control device installed in a central supervisory room in a building, and a plurality of terminals each having a unique address connected to a transmission line from the central supervisory control device. It is composed of A coaxial cable, a twisted pair wire, or the like is used as the transmission line.

By the way, in the terminal unit of the initial supervisory control system device, one terminal unit is capable of on / off monitoring of about 4 points and on / off control of about 2 points. It is a very simple terminal device, since there are only control terminal devices and analog monitoring terminal devices capable of analog monitoring of about one point with one terminal device.

However, with the increase in size of buildings, the increase in electric equipment of buildings, and space saving measures,
Despite being a single terminal device, it is possible to monitor and control dozens of points and perform various types of monitoring (on / off monitoring, analog monitoring,
Terminals called collective terminals, which are capable of counting monitoring) and various controls (on / off control, analog control), have been mainly used.

On the other hand, when operating the supervisory control system device, the central supervisory control device carried into the central supervisory room of the building on the site and each terminal installed at a required place on each floor of the building and connected to the actual load Connect to and with a transmission line, and check in advance whether or not the intended operation is performed (site adjustment work) in advance. Of course, the on-site adjustment work is performed even in the case of the collective type terminal as described above. Then, when a defective operation is found, an operation check for investigating the cause is performed for each individual collective terminal unit. The conventional operation confirmation in units of this collective type terminal is performed as follows.

That is, the field adjustment worker carries the bring-in type inspection tool, which is a pseudo central supervisory control device, to the place where the defective collective type terminal is installed, and transmits it to the transmission line from the central supervisory control device. The defective collective terminal connected is removed from the transmission line, and the defective collective terminal is connected to the transmission line from the inspection tool. The field coordinating operator operates the bring-type inspection tool to give control instructions and monitoring instructions to the collective terminal which seems to be defective by using a transmission signal,
The actual operating state of the load and the connection state on the load side are confirmed.

[0007]

However, in the conventional operation check of the unit of the collective type terminal, the collective type terminal which seems to be defective is removed from the transmission line from the central supervisory control device, The cause of the problem is investigated by connecting the collective terminal that seems to be the problem to a carry-type inspection tool. Therefore, the collective terminal that seems to be the target of the malfunction is checked in an isolated state from the operating environment of the entire supervisory control system, and it may not be possible to confirm the correct operation. At the same time, there is a problem that it is not possible to confirm the transmission between the collective type terminal device and the central supervisory control device, which is considered to be defective.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to collect a collective terminal which is a confirmation target in an operation confirming operation of the collective terminal on site. A collective terminal device that can check the operation of the load side without changing the operating environment of the device and can also check the transmission with the central monitoring and control device and can investigate the cause of the failure under ideal conditions To do.

[0009]

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention comprises a transmission processing unit for receiving a polling signal from a central supervisory control device via a transmission line, and a command included in the polling signal. In the collective terminal unit for controlling the load based on the above, monitoring the load state, and notifying the monitoring result from the transmission processing unit to the central monitoring control device, an inspection tool communication process for communicating with the inspection tool Unit, a load test processing unit that stops communication with the central monitoring control device and tests the load side, and a communication test processing unit that stops load control and conducts a communication test with the central monitoring control device. , It is possible to switch between the load test mode, the communication test mode, and the normal mode by a command from the inspection tool.

[0010]

With the above configuration, the inspection tool can be connected to the collective terminal without removing the collective terminal from the transmission line from the central supervisory control device.
The operation environment of the collective terminal to be confirmed is not changed during the operation confirmation work, and the confirmation work on the load side and the transmission confirmation work with the central supervisory control device can be performed.
