Description

電子標籤之即時更新系統Electronic tag instant update system

本發明係關於一種電子標籤之即時更新系統,尤指一種可以在銷售點管理系統列印其資料時,由一資料截取器將該筆資料截取,並透過主控裝置以電腦網路方式傳遞至對應之電子標籤,使該電子標籤可以立即的修正所顯示之商品資訊者。The present invention relates to an instant update system for an electronic tag, and more particularly to a data interceptor that intercepts the data when the point of sale management system prints the data, and transmits the data to the computer through the main control device. The corresponding electronic tag enables the electronic tag to immediately correct the displayed product information.

傳統商場的貨架上,通常是藉由紙製之商品標籤,標示對應貨架上之商品名稱、售價、貨號、折扣……等資訊,但是由於紙製之商品標籤,必須以人員書寫或由電子輸出裝置輸出,不但極不方便,也極耗費人力,另外此一紙製商品標籤,當其中一資訊有所變更時,便要作廢,不但極為浪費也增加商場的成本負擔,而顯其缺點。On the shelves of traditional shopping malls, usually the goods labels on papers are used to indicate the names, prices, item numbers, discounts, etc. on the corresponding shelves. However, due to the paper labels, they must be written by people or by electronic means. The output of the output device is not only inconvenient, but also extremely labor-intensive. In addition, when one of the paper product labels is changed, it will be invalidated, which not only wastes the cost but also increases the cost burden of the shopping mall, and shows its shortcomings.

近來由於電子科技的進步及突破,有揭示一種電子標籤,管理者可藉由管理控制台,透過網路,進行電子標籤上資訊之變更,使該電子標籤可以被重覆、多次的使用,以降低商場成本,改進以往紙製商品標籤之缺點。Recently, due to the advancement and breakthrough of electronic technology, an electronic tag has been disclosed. The administrator can use the management console to change the information on the electronic tag through the network, so that the electronic tag can be repeatedly and repeatedly used. In order to reduce the cost of shopping malls, the shortcomings of the label of paper products have been improved.

以上所說的電子標籤的方式,有一個問題必須克服,那就是,商品資料的蒐集。電子標籤管理系統必須有完整的商品資料才可以。在引進電子標籤管理系統之前,商品資料存在POS的資料庫。在本專利所揭示的方法之前,電子標籤管理系統蒐集商品資料可行的方式有以下幾種。第一種是要求POS的軟體設計者提供商品資料取得方式。這種方式須增加繁複的行政程序。第二種是試著解讀POS的資料庫。這種方式技術問題不容易克服,且必須一個POS一個POS去解讀,耗費大量軟體及人力。There is a problem that must be overcome in the way of the above-mentioned electronic label, that is, the collection of commodity information. The electronic label management system must have complete product information. Prior to the introduction of the electronic label management system, the product data existed in the POS database. Prior to the method disclosed in this patent, there are several ways in which the electronic tag management system can collect commodity data. The first is to require POS software designers to provide access to commodity data. This approach requires a complicated administrative process. The second is to try to interpret the POS database. This kind of technical problem is not easy to overcome, and must be interpreted by a POS and a POS, which consumes a lot of software and manpower.

本案發明人有鑑於此,乃予以研究,而揭示出本發明所示電子標籤之即時更新系統。In view of this, the inventors of the present invention have studied and disclosed the instant update system of the electronic tag shown in the present invention.

本發明之目的旨在提供一種電子標籤之即時更新系統,係包括:主控裝置、銷售點管理系統及一安裝於該銷售點管理系中之資料截取器,令該資料截取器截取該銷售點管理系統中對應於電子標籤必須顯示之資料後,儲存於該主控裝置,再由該主控裝置藉由電腦網路傳遞至每一筆資料所對應之電子標籤,並更改該對應電子標籤上所顯示之資訊,如商品名稱、售價、貨號、庫存量……等資訊,以使電子標籤可以立即更新其所顯示之商品資訊者。The object of the present invention is to provide an instant update system for an electronic tag, comprising: a master control device, a point of sale management system, and a data interceptor installed in the point of sale management system, so that the data interceptor intercepts the point of sale The information corresponding to the electronic label must be displayed in the management system, and then stored in the main control device, and then transmitted by the main control device to the electronic label corresponding to each data by the computer network, and the corresponding electronic label is changed. Display information such as product name, selling price, item number, stock quantity, etc., so that the electronic label can immediately update the product information displayed by it.

傳統的POS,儘管種類繁多,卻有一個共同點,那就是,商品資料更改時必須由印表機印出商品標籤。目前已有現成技術可以截取送往印表機的資料。若能利用該技術,將所截取之資料加以解讀,便能建立一個獨立的商品資料庫。Traditional POS, although a wide variety, has one thing in common, that is, the product label must be printed by the printer when the product data is changed. At present, off-the-shelf technology can intercept data sent to the printer. If you can use this technology to interpret the intercepted data, you can create an independent product database.

本發明所揭示電子標籤之即時更新系統,其中該資料截取器係於該銷售點管理系統印出商品標籤時,截取該資料,並傳送至主控裝置,再由該主控裝置立即將該筆經變動後之資料,透過電腦網路,傳送至對應的電子標籤,並驅使該電子標籤依該資料變更相關資訊。The instant update system for an electronic tag disclosed by the present invention, wherein the data interceptor intercepts the product when the point of sale management system prints the product label, and transmits the data to the main control device, and then the main control device immediately applies the pen The changed data is transmitted to the corresponding electronic label through the computer network, and the electronic label is driven to change the relevant information according to the data.

本發明所揭示電子標籤之即時更新系統,由於當該銷售點管理系統中的任一筆資料被列印時,該資料截取器便會進行截取動作,並儲存於該主控裝置後,將對應之電子標籤所顯示之資訊立即更新,使賣場之電子標籤所顯示之資訊與該銷售點管理系統中之資料相同,而顯本發明之新穎性並具產業之利用性者。The instant update system for the electronic tag disclosed in the present invention, when any piece of data in the point of sale management system is printed, the data interceptor performs an intercepting action and stores it in the main control device, corresponding to The information displayed on the electronic label is immediately updated, so that the information displayed on the electronic label of the store is the same as the information in the point of sale management system, and the novelty of the invention is industrially useful.
