Put it briefly, this modularization graphic display method of real-time information can satisfy or exceed above-mentioned purpose in the monitoring building automation system.The method according to this invention, the user selects the Drawing Object that will show from a plurality of independently Drawing Objects, and should selected Drawing Object and a reference mark be linked.Next, the related for this reason reference mark of user defines a normal condition and at least one alarm condition, and specifies and the corresponding state characteristic of each institute's definition status.At last, utilize this warning characteristic, the state at reference mark dynamically shows on monitoring station.
The device of the present invention of real-time information in monitoring and the control building automation system also satisfies or exceeds above-mentioned purpose.Usually, in most preferred embodiment, the present invention is an architecture automatized control system, and it includes a monitoring station that is used for monitoring and controlling the procedural information (reference mark) that receives from least one environmental control.This monitoring station preferably includes: a CPU, to/from environmental control transmission/reception data communication equipment, the display of a display graphics information, and an input block.Monitoring station receives the real-time process status information at selected reference mark by means of communication apparatus from environmental control.And this real-time process status information utilizes a controlling object dynamically to show.Monitoring station is provided with one and is used to store memory of data, comprises the dynamic link database (DLL) that is used for each controlling object.The DLL that is used for each controlling object contains first data that each service definition with a plurality of services is one or more objects towards link and embedded object, and each ole object is supported one or more interfaces.And each interface itself comprises many methods, just can call during interface that these methods are only called ole object.DLL further contains and is useful on second data that show at least one independent optional Drawing Object, and stipulates the link data that concerns between selected Drawing Object and the reference mark.The state table data that the monitoring station utilization is stored, connect data and, the real-time process status information at related reference mark is dynamically shown from the operation time of environmental control.
According to graphics application program project organization of the present invention, each part software is realized the service of its one or more ole objects.The object (OLE) towards link and embedding language of the positive Microsoft that refers to of OLE wherein, and OLE is a registered trademark of Microsoft.Each ole object is supported one or more interfaces, and wherein each interface itself comprises many methods again.Method is meant function or the step of finishing specific action, can utilize object (client of this object) to be called by other parts of software.The method that constitutes each interface is interrelated in some predetermined modes.Client has only by the method in the allocating object interface, and the service that is provided by an ole object could be provided, and client can not directly be visited any object data.
By graphic mode as can be seen, divider control according to the present invention is used as an OLE controlling object.One of this controlling object support comprises the interface of the whole bag of tricks such as SetMaxTickAngle and GetMaxTickAngle, wherein SetMaxTickAngle be a kind ofly define maximum deflection angle, be the method for the maximum deflection amount of pin.And GetMaxTickAngle is a kind of method that maximum deflection angle is returned be used as a parameter.If the developer of this object wants to add the image scaling support to this same object in the future, then this object need utilize the independent variable of a definition amplification coefficient to support another interface (perhaps having only a kind of single method such as ZoomIn).Method in each interface all jointly provides related service, shows or visit convergent-divergent image as angle.
The graphic presentation of one application program controlling object as shown in fig. 1.Object 30 always is achieved in the server 32 shown in the rectangle around the object.One that packs into as required when this server or application program operation dynamically connects database (DLL), or dynamically connects a self-contained process of database (DLL) itself.Object 30 disposes several interfaces 34 that are used for calling graphics application program controlling object interface method.Object mainly provides its service by several other interfaces, and client all must have a different pointer for its method with invoked each interface.For example, the client of a divider controlling object needs an interface pointer to come method in the allocating object corner interface, needs another pointer to come method in the allocating object image scaling interface.Shown in Figure 2 be one has two kinds of methods (SetMaxTickAngle, client 40 GetMaxTickAngle) and the divider controlling object 42 with two interfaces 34.In the interface 34 one has a pointer 44 that points to client 40, thus make divider controlling object 42 can call the method for client (SetMaxTickAngle, GetMaxTickAngle).
Each graphics application program controlling object all is a particular category example.For example, a classification comprises the object that monitoring function is provided with a divider form, and another classification comprises the object with a simulation bar form display message.Each classification all has a DLL different, that contain all used various data definitions of this grade object.
Provide for various different services share and access model graphic presentation as shown in Figure 3.Client is on an operation object in case during with the required interface of pointed, just can bring into use the service of this object simply by calling method in the interface.The programming personnel wishes, the method of calling is as calling a current step or function, and in fact, the actual code that is performed perhaps just in a database, in other process, as the part of operating system or even in a diverse system, move.Therefore, for example in Fig. 3, application program 50 and 52 is all moved in operating system 54.Application program 50 has two pointers 56,58, respectively pointing method 60,62.In addition, application program 50 has a pointer 64, the method 66 that this pointer 64 points in the application program of moving in operating system 70 68.Utilize this graphics application program project organization, because can visit all objects in a like fashion, client needn't be known these differences.
One of main target of the present invention is, the architecture automatized control system of a kind of utilization towards the target of method is provided, and described method can be reused existing code effectively.Have the interface that defines and the part that reuses (figure monitoring OCE control) of method owing to allow to create, this new project organization provides one to make it become possible foundation structure.
The object of traditional technology oriented relies on the succession (wherein new object has been inherited the actual implementation method in the existing object) of implementation method to reuse the basic structure of existing code as it.This succession is unpractiaca for system-oriented object in the unusual complicated program environment, because the variation that takes place in the basic object may be to the influence that meets accident from the object of wherein inheriting implementation method.For example, with the object of from basic object, inheriting implementation method basic object independently mutually, when upgrading or from internal memory, discharging, all can cause unpredictable consequence.On the contrary, this graphic display system does not rely on this inherited characteristics, but provides repeated use by a notion that is called reservoir.
Reservoir of the present invention relies on relation between objects that repeated use is provided.External object is meant the object of reusing internal object.Therefore, external object just is used simply as the client of internal object.As shown in Figure 4, external object 72 is called the method in the internal object 74 for the function that realizes himself; And external object 72 can't make these methods by its client 76 findings.On the contrary, when client 76 called method in the middle of one of external object interface 34, the implementation of this method comprised the method in the interface 34 of calling internal object 74.In other words, include the method for calling method in the internal object in the interface of external object.
The use of controlling object is very tangible for the terminal user, the terminal user can see show the various buttons that are used to click, the vernier that is used to drag, the text box that is used to fill in, and the like the typical graphics user interface of information.Most of operating system such as Windows NT allow application program to show this interface to the user.In prior art or project organization, show and the code of handling these user interface features is an ingredient of this system or a particular application.On the contrary, according to graphics application program project organization of the present invention, the users' interfaces feature is not an ingredient of system.Therefore, user interface is can be with the expansion of control system independent or design concurrently.But the user wishes that interface and control system can constitute a tight unified integral body.Especially, the user sees a control reservoir, and this control reservoir comprises many OLE control (as simulating rod, dot information group, divider, hyperlink, and relating dot controls, wherein each all will be discussed in more detail below).Control reservoir and OLE composite file reservoir are similar, but it supports several additional interfaces that are used to handle OLE control.Each control is inserted in the control reservoir, and each control usually all is the user interface with himself, the embedded object that suitable activation picture is set as an energy support shows.For example, the vernier on the screen as long as move along its axis simply, just can make a specific output point give a new numerical value.By moving cursor, the operator works in coordination with the actual code that triggers the OLE controlling object.The terminal user saw, as the combined user interface of single application program, be actually one and concentrate and to have that various discrete monitoring OLE control, wherein each control provides the control reservoir of the part in the overall plan.
Reservoir provides a kind of method of checking and revise control characteristic directly, intuitively to the user.Utilize graphic mode, shown in Figure 5 is one is called the characteristic window, the user can directly be seen and can revise the user interface 82 of control characteristic.But not all control reservoir can both provide this visit.In addition, not to allow each control display that himself user interface of certain kinds is provided, and be to use the notion of property pages.Utilize this property pages, the user interface of all available standard of any control characteristic is checked in a kind of mode of standard and is revised.Although 82 designs of characteristic window interface are got up quite complicated but very directly perceived and easy to understand.Specify each page in the dialog box all to provide by the property pages object of himself.The form property pages as shown in Figure 5.
Property pages is supported the IPropertyPage interface to liking an ole object with the category IDs (CLSID) of himself.CLSID is unique number of one 128, and it can discern the special server of realizing OLE, and the IPropertyPage interface is the OLE interface of a standard, controls this interface and must realize in order to make object become an OCX.
Below with reference to Fig. 6 the interaction between reservoir and the controlling object is described.As shown in the figure, controlling object 88 can realize an IspecifyPropertyPage interface (shown in empty arrow 90), so that its reservoir 92 obtains its property pages object of supporting 94,96.When control characteristic was checked in user's request, control reservoir 92 called a method, obtains a CLSID inventory by the method, and each method is corresponding with the property pages object that control is supported.
In a single day reservoir 92 obtains the property pages 94,96 that control is supported, just creates a characteristic picture 98, and this picture 98 utilizes the CoCreateInstance method to activate each property pages object instance again.For each property pages object, the characteristic picture all provides a page on-the-spot object 100,102, and wherein each all supports the IPropertyPageSite interface.Utilize this interface, the property pages object can obtain creates this property pages Properties of Objects picture.Each property pages object is shown to its page on the characteristic picture, and this characteristic picture with the property pages object form one as shown in Figure 5 suitable dialog box is set.
Use this object structure, the user can directly check or revise control characteristic.Any change all is sent to the property pages object by IPropertyPage from the characteristic picture, directly turns back to control itself by its IDispatch interface by the property pages object then.In addition, figure control reservoir is equipped with promptly when a new control is inserted in the figure reservoir, makes centralized control be reduced to the characteristic of comprehensive display environment.For example the control of Cha Ruing can be adopted current background color, make the text of himself be rendered as the wrong font of reservoir, or determines that it is in dynamic (working time) mode or in edit mode.
The environment that adapts in order to make control obtain itself, figure control reservoir support environment characteristic, this environmental characteristics include illegal background color, illegal font, mode and or the like.Control can be obtained these characteristics by the IDispatch interface.In case control has obtained the environmental characteristics numerical value of its reservoir, just himself characteristic can be become these numerical value, so that visually concentrate in together with other controls in the reservoir.
With reference to figure 7-9, the method for utilizing an affiliated partner to control to monitor a reference mark is described.Especially, Fig. 7 is a synoptic diagram of affiliated partner control, and Fig. 8 is the process flow diagram that is used to set up affiliated partner control according to the present invention.
Affiliated partner control according to the present invention is a compound pattern that comprises the optional object of several independences.This compound pattern has shown the part of a system or system with the picture form, and has dynamically shown status information in a mode directly perceived.Utilize graphic mode, shown in Figure 7 is in the building automation system, the part of an air treatment system 110, comprises the optional object 112,114,116 of several independences,
Utilize method of the present invention, the user makes a selected object be associated with a required reference mark, and selects the various form characteristic that can show this reference mark current state visibly.Come the method is described with reference to Fig. 8.
At first, the user selects a compound pattern (square frame 122) from the database that stores compound pattern.Next, the user for example by using keyboard, mouse, touch-sensitive screen or other data entry devices, selects an optional object of independence (square frame 124).
Next, the user carries out operation associated (square frame 126) by importing a reference mark or select the mode at a reference mark from definition reference mark inventory to selected object.The operator interface at input or selection reference mark as shown in Figure 9.Of the present invention some title is by the separated letter-digit strings of one or more separators, and it only represents a unique point by rank.Utilize interface shown in Figure 9, the user can select and show whole some title, or stipulate a separator and selected to first and last field in one of show.
Referring to Fig. 8, the user indicates the state (square frame 128) at related reference mark by a set point of regulation and one or more adjustment deviation again.The operator interface of importing this information as shown in Figure 10.Set point is represented is the central point of the desired or normal condition in reference mark.First alarm condition defines by importing a deviation.For example, if a given reference mark is that 50 and first departure is 10, then normal condition comprises the numerical value in 40 to 60 scopes.Any value that drops on outside this scope all will trigger an alarm condition.In addition, user's deviate of importing other just can select to determine other alarm condition.
Referring to Fig. 8, next the user selects to be used to show the status color (square frame 130) of present each state in reference mark again.Therefore, for example a normal state can be represented by green, and first alarm condition can be represented by orange.
In addition, when the reference mark entered alarm condition, the user can select to make Drawing Object and/or the flicker of some title.End user's system for prompting should pass through the update displayed object by state characteristic according to the rules, comes the affiliated partner state is dynamically updated (square frame 132).
Key character of the present invention is that the user can add, revises or delete the link between Drawing Object and the reference mark.This can be with described object and the reference mark identical method of used method that is linked being finished.Therefore, need not supervisory system is carried out reprogramming, can realize newly-increased monitored reference mark.
Another key character is that the display characteristic that is associated with each state is easy to self-defined, to satisfy the user's who utilizes described operator interface different demands.
According to a further aspect in the invention, compound pattern can be covered on the static background picture.For example, represent the figure of environmental control can be covered on the static topology of buildings for one.This feature is convenient to utilize existing bit map figure, is provided at the figure indication of control position in the big system to the user, or an aesthstic background is provided.
Data and the order process flow diagram of setting up the dynamic control that comprises the static background picture is described with reference to Figure 11.Especially, a database 150 contains and is useful on the data of setting up one or more static background pictures 152 and comprising one or more compound patterns 154 of the optional graphical control object of one or more independences.In process steps 156 (as shown by arrows), select a tableaux in the picture of operator 158 from be stored in database 150, to select to set up a background graphics.In next process steps (square frame 160), the operator select an expection, be covered in the compound pattern on the background frame, and, set up a motion graphics by some objects in the optional object of selected independence are associated with desired reference mark.In addition, operating personnel select the required behavioral characteristics that includes each relating dot warning and indicating characteristic.In last process steps (square frame 162), operating personnel 158 utilize motion graphics that order and control are carried out in selected related reference mark.
And according to a further aspect in the invention, each independent optional Drawing Object all is one, the different OCX control that is made of one or more dynamic subobjects.Make each Drawing Object become the expansion that the control of modelling piece is convenient in a different OCX control.In addition, this aspect of the present invention can realize upgrading faster response, and this is because each Drawing Object is not restrictedly upgraded by background and other Drawing Objects can.
Refer now to second embodiment that Figure 12-15 describes graphic display method of the present invention.In brief, according to a second embodiment of the present invention, have three kinds of control types and can be used to dynamically show operation time and status information.Divider control just, the control of simulation rod and dot information group.According to divider control of the present invention as shown in Figure 12, the simulation rod is controlled as shown in Figure 13, and the dot information group is controlled as shown in Figure 14.
It is all different that these controls and prior art building automation are controlled at several aspects.One of them is the modularization about control.Exactly, each control of the present invention all is a different OCX who is stored in the different pieces of information file.The user can select which reference mark is monitored, and can determine to be used for monitoring the control types at this reference mark.And then each control is independent of other control, and in case of necessity, each can both upgrade during being controlled at himself processing cycle.In other words, OCX control of the present invention is to insert independence in the JA(junction ambient) more one, dynamically upgrading.
Or rather, each control all is an object that is made of static and dynamic subobject.Static subobject refers to the object part that does not upgrade or repaint in the update cycle.Can see that by graphic mode in the divider control 168 of Figure 12, graduation apparatus 170 and reference mark title 172 are static subobject.On the contrary, rocket body 174 and arrow 176 are dynamic subobjects, because they constantly dynamically upgrade, with the operation time that reflects that this reference mark is current.According to this mutual independence of static subobject of the present invention with dynamic subobject, help carrying out fast operations of inserting more, because during each processing cycle, only need utilize process source to upgrade dynamic subobject.
Referring now to Figure 15 the method for setting up dynamic control is described.The method is extremely similar to the method for building up of affiliated partner control.What main difference was to be associated with each control can self-defining option.
For example, the user selects divider control (square frame 182) from divider control, simulation rod figure and dot information group.Then the user selects one to be linked or related point (square frame 184) with this control.
Then, the form characteristic of selected control is determined (square frame 186).The form of the every class control of user's modification and the ability of Show Options are another one key characters of the present invention.On the contrary, the figure control in the prior art building automation system is inflexibility, because various form and indicating characteristic all have been programmed in the graphic display program.Therefore, the scale of modification prior art control then needs program is made amendment.On the contrary, according to control format of the present invention and display characteristic, the user need not reprogramming and can make amendment to it.
For example, shown in Figure 5 is the operator interface 82 that is used to set divider form characteristic.Utilize this operator interface, the user selects whether to provide the arrow and/or the fulcrum of pin.In addition, the user not only determines minimum and maximum pin deflection angle (expenditure is represented), also determines sense of rotation, position of the fulcrum.
On the contrary, if selected control is a simulation rod figure, then the user can select the orientation (square frame 186) of excellent figure.For example, shown in Figure 16 is an operator interface, and wherein, the user can select the simulation rod figure or the vertical orientated rod figure of horizontal alignment.And then the user can select the offset direction of excellent figure.Therefore, for horizontal alignment rod figure, the user selects excellent figure to increase or increase left to the right, and for vertical orientated rod figure, the user selects excellent figure upwards to increase or increase downwards.
Further, if control types is some message block, in step 186, the user can utilize operator interface 210 (Figure 17) to select various form characteristics so.In the middle of other characteristics, the user can select whether to show related reference mark title, marker character, its state and preferential alert levels.
Next, in step 188, user definition reference mark state, and regulation and the corresponding unique color of each state.Therefore, except the operation time that dynamically shows the reference mark, also utilize the color that is associated with each state to come display status information.
Then, the user is that Show Options is selected in selected control; As the title that will show, whether show relating dot title and bell character, and predetermined axis mark and related font (square frame 190).Next, the status color (square frame 192) of user's each state of selecting to be used to show that the reference mark presents.
At last, according to the rules warning characteristic and operation time come the state of linking point is dynamically shown (square frame 194) by upgrading dynamic subobject.
As mentioned above, the user has the ability of determining every class control alarm condition characteristic.Therefore, the user can also determine to reflect the control change color of reference mark alarm condition except providing the actual operation time by the deflection of pin or the skew of simulating excellent figure.
By above-mentioned discussion, can obtain the modularization graphic display method of dynamic process information in a monitoring and the control building automation system, this method is utilized reusable controlling object, and illustrated and described real-time process information is carried out graphic presentation.Also can further obtain to utilize the building automation system that reaches described modularization graphic display method shown in this.
Although illustrated and described various embodiment of the present invention, should understand other distortion, replacement and selection, also all be conspicuous for the person of ordinary skill of the art.Under the situation that does not deviate from essence of the present invention and scope, can make these modifications, replacement and selection, the present invention is by additional claims decision.
