Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、温度等のアナログ測定信号データを表示・記録させる記録計に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
温度等のアナログ測定データの時間的に変化するトレンド表示を行うペーパーレス記録計において、様々な表示を行い利用する必要がある。たとえば、表示手段にトレンド表示画面を表示させ、次にキー操作によりバーグラフを表示させていた。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、このように、画面全体を切り換えるものでは、複数画面を同時に見ることができず、全体的な把握をしたい場合など、不便なことがあった。
【0004】
この発明は、以上の点に鑑み、簡易な構成で、所望の複数の画面を容易に表示することができる記録計を提供することである。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
この発明は、測定データを取り込み表示手段に表示する処理手段と、前記表示手段の表示画面領域をメイン表示領域とサブ表示領域に区分し、それぞれの表示領域に所望の表示を選択するための操作手段とを備えた記録計である。
【0006】
【発明の実施の形態】
図1はこの発明の一実施例の外観を示す説明図である。この図1において、1は、本願発明に係るペーパーレスのグラフィック記録計の前面部で、奥行き方向のケースや内蔵の処理手段等は省略してある。そして、この前面部1は、LCD等の表示手段2が設けられ、その表示画面の左部に例えば時間的に変化する縦方向に流れるトレンド2a、2b、2c等の縦トレンドグラフを表示する大きなメイン表示領域10a、右部に横方向に流れる横トレンドグラフ10b(メイン表示領域10aのグラフと同一データのグラフ又は他のデータのグラフ)、バーグラフ表示10c、警報表示10d等の複数のサブ表示領域が分割し区分して表示されている。また、この表示手段2に重ねてその前面にタッチパネル3が設けられタッチペン等を利用して操作できるようになっており、そのほか図示しないキーボード、マウス等の操作手段を用意してもよい。
【0007】
次に、図2の構成説明図で示すように、この記録計は、外部のセンサや通信で測定データ等が入力される入力手段4、この入力手段4からの測定データを取り込みタッチパネル3を有する表示手段2に表示するとともに記憶手段6に格納するμCPUのような処理手段5、表示手段2を参照して所定の設定・操作を行うためのキーボード7aやマウス7b、タッチパネル3にタッチペンを利用した操作手段等で構成されている。
【0008】
そして、計測記録後、必要時などに、図1の表示手段2のメイン表示領域10aを操作手段としてのマウス等をクリックしたり、タッチペンで指定すると、図3で示すような選択項目を示すウインドウが開く。このウインドウのサブ領域指定項目8aのプルダウンマークを操作してサブ領域の位置(上から1,2,3…)を指定し、次いで、このサブ1を操作して選択すると、メイン表示領域10aの縦トレンド画面と、サブ表示領域10bの横トレンド画面が相互に切り替わる(図5参照)。また、サブ領域指定項目8aを0にするか、指定しないで、データ表示項目8b、バーグラフ指定項目8c、警報指定項目8d等を選択すると、これらの所望の表示画面がメイン表示領域10aに表示される。なお、サブ領域数表示項目8eを選択し、数(1,2,3…)を指定するとサブ領域の数を任意に指定できる。
【0009】
また、例えばサブ表示領域10bを操作手段としてのマウス等をクリックしたり、タッチペンで指定すると、図4で示すように、選択項目を示すウインドが開く。ここで、メイン指定項目8bを選択すると、図5のように メイン表示領域10aの縦トレンドグラフの画面と、サブ表示領域10bの横トレンドグラフの画面が相互に切り替わる。この例のサブ領域10cにはバーグラフ表示、サブ領域10cには警報表示がされており、アナログ的なトレンド、グラフ、警報状態などを一挙に見ることができる。また、図6で示すように、メイン表示領域10aを上部に、4個のサブ表示領域10e,10f,10g,10hを下部に配置してもよく、表示しない設定もできる。そして、これら各領域に所望の表示を選択できるとともに、各表示領域をドラッグして任意の場所に置くことができ、又、境界部を伸縮することで、拡大、縮小も可能である。これ以外の様々な切換、選択方法を採用してもよい。このように、メイン表示領域のほか、各サブ表示領域を複数とし、様々に構成、配置することができる。
【0010】
【発明の効果】この発明は測定データを取り込み表示手段に表示する処理手段と、前記表示手段の表示画面領域をメイン表示領域とサブ表示領域に区分し、それぞれの表示領域に所望の表示を選択するための操作手段とを備えた記録計である。したがって、常にメイン表示領域とサブ表示領域に区分しているので、複数の種類の表示を常に見ることができ、例えばメイン表示領域にトレンドグラフを表示しておき、複数のサブ表示領域に測定データや、警報発生状況を表示させ、総合的な判断が可能となる。また、各領域に所望の表示を選択できるので、その表示画面の組合せにより、様々な用途に対応でき、簡易な構成で所望の複数画面が形成でき、表示位置も必要に応じ任意とでき有用である。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a recorder for displaying and recording analog measurement signal data such as temperature.
[0002]
[Prior art]
It is necessary to use various displays in a paperless recorder that displays a trend that changes over time of analog measurement data such as temperature. For example, a trend display screen is displayed on the display means, and then a bar graph is displayed by key operation.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, when the entire screen is switched in this way, a plurality of screens cannot be viewed at the same time, and there is a case where it is inconvenient when the user wants to grasp the entire screen.
[0004]
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and provides a recorder capable of easily displaying a plurality of desired screens with a simple configuration.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention is directed to a processing means for taking in measurement data and displaying it on a display means, and an operation for dividing a display screen area of the display means into a main display area and a sub display area and selecting a desired display in each display area. And a recorder.
[0006]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing the appearance of an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a front part of a paperless graphic recorder according to the present invention, in which a case in a depth direction, a built-in processing means, and the like are omitted. The front portion 1 is provided with a display means 2 such as an LCD, and displays a large vertical trend graph such as a trend 2a, 2b, 2c which changes in time in the vertical direction on the left portion of the display screen. A plurality of sub-displays such as a main display area 10a, a horizontal trend graph 10b (a graph of the same data as the graph of the main display area 10a or a graph of other data), a bar graph display 10c, and an alarm display 10d. The area is divided and displayed separately. Further, a touch panel 3 is provided on the front of the display means 2 so as to be operable using a touch pen or the like. In addition, operation means such as a keyboard and a mouse (not shown) may be provided.
[0007]
Next, as shown in the configuration diagram of FIG. 2, the recorder includes an input unit 4 to which measurement data and the like are input by an external sensor and communication, and a touch panel 3 that takes in measurement data from the input unit 4. A processing means 5, such as a μCPU, which is displayed on the display means 2 and stored in the storage means 6, a keyboard 7a and a mouse 7b for performing predetermined settings and operations with reference to the display means 2, and a touch pen is used for the touch panel 3. It is composed of operation means and the like.
[0008]
When the main display area 10a of the display means 2 in FIG. 1 is clicked or designated with a touch pen or the like as an operation means after measurement and recording when necessary, a window showing selection items as shown in FIG. 3 is displayed. Opens. By operating the pull-down mark of the sub-area designation item 8a of this window to specify the position of the sub-area (1, 2, 3... From the top), and then operating and selecting this sub 1, the sub-area 1 is selected. The vertical trend screen and the horizontal trend screen of the sub display area 10b are switched to each other (see FIG. 5). When the data display item 8b, the bar graph specification item 8c, the alarm specification item 8d, or the like is selected without setting the sub-region specification item 8a to 0 or not, the desired display screen is displayed on the main display region 10a. Is done. The number of sub-regions can be arbitrarily specified by selecting the sub-region number display item 8e and specifying the number (1, 2, 3,...).
[0009]
For example, when the sub display area 10b is clicked with a mouse or the like as an operation means or specified with a touch pen, a window showing a selection item is opened as shown in FIG. Here, when the main designation item 8b is selected, the screen of the vertical trend graph in the main display area 10a and the screen of the horizontal trend graph in the sub display area 10b are switched as shown in FIG. In this example, a bar graph is displayed in the sub area 10c, and an alarm is displayed in the sub area 10c, so that analog trends, graphs, alarm states, and the like can be seen at a glance. As shown in FIG. 6, the main display area 10a may be arranged at the upper part, and the four sub display areas 10e, 10f, 10g, and 10h may be arranged at the lower part. A desired display can be selected for each of these areas, and each display area can be dragged and placed at an arbitrary position. In addition, by expanding and contracting a boundary portion, enlargement and reduction can be performed. Various other switching and selection methods may be adopted. In this way, in addition to the main display area, each sub-display area can be plural, and can be variously configured and arranged.
[0010]
According to the present invention, a processing means for taking in measurement data and displaying it on a display means, a display screen area of the display means is divided into a main display area and a sub display area, and a desired display is selected for each display area. And a recorder for performing the operation. Therefore, since the display is always divided into the main display area and the sub display area, a plurality of types of displays can always be seen. For example, a trend graph is displayed in the main display area, and the measurement data is displayed in a plurality of sub display areas. In addition, an alarm occurrence state is displayed, and comprehensive judgment can be made. In addition, since a desired display can be selected in each area, it is possible to correspond to various uses by combining the display screens, a desired plurality of screens can be formed with a simple configuration, and the display position can be arbitrarily set as needed and useful. is there.
