Second step: the steering order of sending from portable wireless monitor terminal that the embedded main control computer real-time listening wireless transceiver of pipe robot walking outside receives; In the time that the steering order listening to is " front end advances ", " front end advance and retreat stop " or " front end retreats ", left front walking steering wheel and right front walking steering wheel rotate forward simultaneously, stop operating or rotate backward simultaneously simultaneously; In the time that the steering order listening to is " advancing in rear end ", " rear end advance and retreat stop " or " rear end retreats ", left back walking steering wheel and right back walking steering wheel rotate forward simultaneously, stop operating or rotate backward simultaneously simultaneously; In the time that the steering order listening to is " entirety is advanced ", " entirety advance and retreat stop " or " entirety retreats ", left front walking steering wheel, right front walking steering wheel, left back walking steering wheel and right back walking steering wheel rotate forward simultaneously, stop simultaneously or rotate backward simultaneously; In the time that the steering order listening to is " front end clamping ", " front end degree of tightness stops " or " front end unclamps ", physical construction clamping pipe, the front end linear electric motors that front end linear electric motors order about front end stop operating or front end linear electric motors order about physical construction and unclamp pipeline; In the time that the steering order listening to is " rear end clamping ", " rear end degree of tightness stops " or " unclamp rear end ", physical construction clamping pipe, the rear end linear electric motors that rear end linear electric motors order about rear end stop operating or rear end linear electric motors order about physical construction and unclamp pipeline; In the time that the steering order listening to is " anticlockwise ", left front walking steering wheel rotates forward, and right front walking steering wheel rotates backward, and left back walking steering wheel rotates backward, right back walking steering wheel rotates forward, and now under the ordering about of steering wheel, pipe robot walking outside will be around pipeline to anticlockwise; In the time that the steering order listening to is " rotation stops ", four steering wheels stop simultaneously; In the time that the steering order listening to is " right rotation ", left front walking steering wheel rotates backward, and right front walking steering wheel rotates forward, and left back walking steering wheel rotates forward, right back walking steering wheel rotates backward, and now under the ordering about of steering wheel, pipe robot walking outside will be around pipeline to right rotation; In the time that the steering order listening to is " new line ", the angle of rear and front end that new line steering wheel orders about pipe robot walking outside by 180 degree to diminish direction motion of angle; In the time that the steering order listening to is " lifting bows stops ", new line steering wheel stops operating; In the time that the steering order listening to is " bowing ", the angle that new line steering wheel orders about the rear and front end of pipe robot walking outside changes from small to big; In the time that the steering order listening to is " anticlockwise of front end camera ", the cradle head control camera of front end camera is to anticlockwise; Same, when the steering order listening to is while controlling the steering order of cam movement, the cradle head control front end camera of front end camera or rear end camera or rear end camera left rotation and right rotation or lift and bow to adjust shooting angle;
The 3rd step: the image that the front end camera that the embedded main control computer Real-time Collection pipe robot walking outside of pipe robot walking outside carries and rear end camera are taken also will send to portable wireless monitor terminal by wireless transceiver after two groups of image compression encodings;
The 4th step: the wireless transceiver of portable wireless monitor terminal receive that pipe robot walking outside sends two groups is after the view data of compressed encoding, be transferred to embedded monitoring machine and decode, embedded monitoring machine is presented at decoded two groups of images being taken by front end camera and rear end camera on touch-screen;
The 5th step: by two groups of image scenes on the touch-screen of observation portable wireless monitor terminal, can be according to the order of sending of the reasonable layout steering order of actual conditions, can also control tube robot walking outside complete climbing straight tube, bend pipe, L shaped pipe, T shape pipe and the multiple cast of cruciform pipe or around pipeline left rotation and right rotation multiple-task.
