Operation display panel and operation display method
Technical Field
The present invention relates to an operation display panel and an operation display method for receiving an operation performed by a user and displaying information.
Background
When a user operating the display panel changes the numerical value of the set value on the operation display panel, the user may wish to gradually increase or decrease the set numerical value or to change the numerical value by directly inputting the numerical value desired to be set.
The input device of patent document 1 displays a scale on a display screen when a user touches 1 of a plurality of setting value windows, and the user touches the scale to change the numerical value of the setting value window selected by the user. The input device of patent document 1 includes a key for gradually changing a numerical value and a key for rapidly changing a numerical value, thereby adjusting the degree of change.
Patent document 1: japanese laid-open patent publication No. 2001-315179
Disclosure of Invention
However, in patent document 1, which is the above-described conventional technique, a key for adjusting the degree of change is separately provided, and therefore a wide display screen is required. Further, in patent document 1 which is the above-mentioned conventional technique, since a numerical value desired to be set cannot be directly input, there is a problem that operability is impaired when changing the numerical value of a setting item.
The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an operation display panel capable of achieving high operability while suppressing a display area.
In order to solve the above problems and achieve the object, the present invention provides an operation display panel including: a panel unit that displays a1 st setting value and a2 nd setting value, which are setting values of setting items, and the setting items on a screen, and receives a touch operation by a user on any one of the 1 st setting value and the 2 nd setting value displayed on the screen; and a numerical value increase/decrease operation unit which is disposed at a position different from the panel unit and receives an increase/decrease operation of the 1 st set value and the 2 nd set value by a user. The operation display panel further includes: a display control unit that controls a display state of the panel unit based on a touch operation on any one of a1 st setting value and a2 nd setting value displayed on the screen; and an output unit that outputs the 1 st set value and the 2 nd set value set in the panel unit or the numerical value increase/decrease operation unit to the tension control device as the external device, wherein in the display state, there are a display state in which the 1 st set value and the 2 nd set value can be numerically changed, one is in a state of receiving the numerical value increase/decrease operation, the other is in a state of not receiving the numerical value increase/decrease operation, and a display state in which both the 1 st set value and the 2 nd set value are in a state of not being numerically changed. The display control unit displays, on the panel unit, a numerical value input means for touch-inputting a numerical value, if the numerical value increase/decrease operation unit accepts the numerical value increase/decrease operation, and if the panel unit accepts the touch operation for specifying the setting value of the 1 st setting value and the 2 nd setting value, the numerical value input means changes the setting value of the 1 st setting value and the 2 nd setting value displayed on the panel unit, the setting value of the 1 st setting value and the 2 nd setting value accepted the numerical value increase/decrease operation, to the numerical value touch-inputted by the numerical value input means, and the numerical value input means displays, on the panel unit, the numerical value increase/decrease operation accepted, while displaying, on the panel unit, the state where the 1 st setting value and the 2 nd setting value can be changed, one of the 1 st setting value and the 2 nd setting value is accepted the numerical value increase/decrease operation, and, if the panel portion receives a touch operation for specifying a setting value not subjected to the numerical value increase/decrease operation, of the 1 st setting value and the 2 nd setting value, the panel portion is replaced with the panel portion as to whether the numerical value increase/decrease operation of the 1 st setting value and the 2 nd setting value is acceptable. When the display control unit displays on the panel unit a state in which both of the 1 st setting value and the 2 nd setting value cannot be changed in value, the display control unit does not change the value of the 1 st setting value and the 2 nd setting value even if the numerical value increase/decrease operation unit receives the numerical value increase/decrease operation or even if the touch input to the numerical value input means is received.

Detailed Description
Hereinafter, an operation display panel and an operation display method according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. The present invention is not limited to the embodiment.
Detailed description of the preferred embodiments
Fig. 1 is a diagram showing a configuration of an operation panel of an operation display panel according to an embodiment. The operation display panel provided with the operation panel 20 is a device for receiving an operation to an external device and transmitting the operation to the external device. The operation display panel 1 according to the embodiment includes an operation panel 20 as a front panel on a front surface side. The operation panel 20 includes a panel unit 21 which is a display panel with a touch panel.
The panel portion 21 has: a display panel configured using a liquid crystal panel or an organic ElectroLuminescence (EL) panel; and a touch panel disposed on the display panel. The display panel is a panel that displays characters, symbols, or pictures on a screen. The touch panel is formed using a transparent member, and detects a contact position on the touch surface where a finger or a pen is in contact with the touch panel.
The panel unit 21 displays setting items and setting values, which are numerical values set in the setting items, and receives a touch operation of a user on a screen. The setting items are items that the operation display panel 1 sets in accordance with an instruction from the user. The setting items are items set in the machine controlled by the tension control device 2 described later. Examples of the setting items are a target value of tension control, responsiveness, a maximum diameter of a material, or a minimum diameter of a material. In the panel portion 21, a display panel overlaps with a touch panel, and a transparent touch panel is disposed over the display panel. Further, in the panel section 21, a position on the display panel and a position on the touch panel are associated. Specifically, if the upper surface of the panel portion 21 is defined as an XY plane, the display panel is attached to the touch panel in the panel portion 21 such that XY coordinates on the display panel are the same as XY coordinates on the touch panel. With this configuration, when the user selects information displayed on the display panel, the user only needs to touch the position on the touch panel where the selected information is displayed.
The operation panel 20 has a dial 26 for increasing and decreasing the set value, i.e., the numerical value. The dial 26 is formed to be rotatable clockwise or counterclockwise. The display panel of the panel portion 21 increases the numerical value being displayed if the dial 26 is rotated clockwise by the user, and the display panel of the panel portion 21 decreases the numerical value being displayed if the dial 26 is rotated counterclockwise by the user.
The scale 26 is connected to a contact-type or optical encoder that transmits 2 pulse signals that are 90 degrees out of phase by rotation of the scale 26. The operation display panel 1 detects the rotation direction of the dial plate 26 by determining whether the clockwise direction is the normal rotation or the counterclockwise direction is the reverse rotation based on the direction of the phase deviation of the 2 pulse signals. The operation display panel 1 determines the rotation angle of the dial plate 26 based on the number of pulses.
Such a dial 26 can change the increase or decrease of the numerical value by the speed at which the dial 26 is rotated. Further, since the dial 26 needs to be rotated for a plurality of revolutions when the value is changed greatly from the previously set numerical value, it may have a recessed portion for catching a fingertip. Since the recessed portion is provided in the dial 26, the fingertip easily catches the recessed portion, and therefore, the user can easily rotate the dial 26. As a result, the user can easily perform a large numerical change. The scale 26 may have a convex portion for hooking a fingertip. The convex portion for hooking the fingertip is provided radially from the center of the dial plate 26. Since the convex portion is provided on the dial 26, the fingertip easily catches the convex portion, and therefore, the fingertip is less likely to slide from the dial 26. As a result, the user can easily rotate the dial plate 26, and can easily perform a large numerical value change. In addition, the dial 26 may increase the speed of change of the numerical value when the rotational speed of the dial 26 exceeds a threshold value.
Further, the operation panel 20 includes: a lock key 31 for prohibiting or releasing a change of a set value which is a currently set numerical value; and a lock display 32 for displaying whether the currently set value is prohibited or permitted to be changed.
The lock key 31 is a key for switching the numeric value input to the setting item to be valid or invalid. In other words, the lock key 31 is a key for switching between permission and prohibition of setting change of the numerical value displayed on the panel unit 21. The permission and prohibition of the numerical value change are alternately switched by operating the display panel 1 every time the lock key 31 is pressed once by the user. The operation panel 20 is not limited to one-time pressing of the lock key 31, and may be a long press or a double press to alternately switch between permission and prohibition of numerical value change. The lock-up display 32 indicates that the currently set value is prohibited from being changed by turning on the light and indicates that the currently set value is permitted to be changed by turning off the light.
The operation panel 20 receives a numerical value set in the parameter of the setting item from the user in a state where the numerical value input is enabled. On the other hand, the operation panel 20 does not receive the numerical value set in the parameter of the setting item from the user in a state where the numerical value input is invalid.
The operation panel 20 may be provided with a button for changing a menu displayed on the panel unit 21 or a button for switching power on or off. The operation panel 20 may be provided with a button for manually changing the value of the currently set value or a button for automatically changing the currently set value. The operation panel 20 may have a screen for displaying a measurement value of an item designated by the user, or may have buttons for outputting information set by using the operation panel 20 to an external device.
Fig. 2 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the operation display panel according to the embodiment. The operation display panel 1 includes: an operation panel 20 that displays numerical values and accepts user operations; and a numerical value input setting device 10 for setting a numerical value input method in the operation panel 20 based on a user operation.
The operation panel 20 includes: a panel unit 21 that displays numerical values and accepts a touch operation of a touch surface by a user; and a touch coordinate detecting section 24 that detects a coordinate touched by the user based on a user operation on the panel section 21.
The panel portion 21 has: a display panel 22 which is a display unit for displaying numerical values; and a touch panel 23 which is a touch receiving unit that receives a touch operation performed by a user. The display panel 22 displays a screen name, a setting item name, a numerical value, and an underline cursor in accordance with an instruction from the numerical value input setting device 10. The underline cursor is an underline indicating a position where a numerical value is input or displayed on the display screen of the display panel 22. The touch panel 23 has a touch position detection sensor that detects a touch on the touch surface by the user. If the touch surface is touched by the user, the touch position detection sensor generates a signal corresponding to the touched position, and transmits the generated signal to the touch coordinate detection section 24.
The touch coordinate detecting unit 24 detects the coordinates touched by the user based on the signal transmitted from the touch panel 23. The touch coordinate detecting unit 24 transmits coordinate information indicating the detected coordinates to the numerical value input setting device 10.
The display panel 22, the touch panel 23, and the touch coordinate detecting unit 24 may be integrally formed. In this case, the panel portion 21 may have the function of the display panel 22, the function of the touch panel 23, and the function of the touch coordinate detecting portion 24.
The operation panel 20 includes a numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25X that receives an increase/decrease operation of a numerical value from a user. An example of the numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25X is a dial plate 26. The numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25X may be an increase/decrease key 27 to be described later for increasing/decreasing the numerical value. The numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25X may be both the dial plate 26 and the increase/decrease key 27. The numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25X transmits operation information corresponding to the operation of the dial 26 or the increase/decrease key 27 to the numerical value input setting device 10.
The control panel 20 is provided with a change prohibition setting unit 28X, and the change prohibition setting unit 28X receives an instruction from the user to prohibit or cancel the change of the currently set value. An example of the change prohibition setting portion 28X is a lock key 31. Upon receiving an operation for permitting the numerical value change from the user, the change prohibition setting unit 28X notifies the numerical value input setting device 10 that there is an instruction to permit the numerical value change. Further, if an operation for prohibiting the numerical value change is received from the user, the change prohibition setting unit 28X notifies the numerical value input setting device 10 that there is an instruction to prohibit the numerical value change.
The numerical value input setting device 10 includes: a display control unit 11 that controls a display state of a screen displayed on the display panel 22; a storage unit 12 that stores information for controlling a display state; and an output unit 13 that outputs information set on the operation display panel 1.
The display control unit 11 receives the operation information sent thereto from the numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25X and the coordinate information sent thereto from the touch coordinate detection unit 24. The display control unit 11 determines that the operation information and the coordinate information are operations on the display panel 22, and executes control corresponding to the operation information and the coordinate information on the display panel 22.
The display control unit 11 transmits a display instruction of information to be displayed on the screen and a change instruction of information to be displayed on the screen to the display panel 22. The display instruction of the information on the screen is an instruction to display a screen name, a setting item name, a numerical value, and an underline cursor. The instruction to change the information displayed on the screen is an instruction to change the display state, an instruction to shift the screen, or an instruction to change the numerical value being displayed.
If the display control unit 11 transmits an instruction to change the display state to the display panel 22, the display panel 22 changes the display state of the underline cursor. Specifically, the display panel 22 switches between displaying the underline cursor in the blinking state and displaying the underline cursor in the stopped blinking state.
Further, if the display control unit 11 transmits an instruction to shift the screen to the display panel 22, the display panel 22 switches the screen to any one of a display state of the numerical value, an input state of the numerical value, and other states.
Further, if the display control unit 11 transmits an instruction to change the numerical value being displayed to the display panel 22, the display panel 22 changes the numerical value being displayed. The display control unit 11 creates information to be displayed on the display panel 22 and an instruction to the display panel 22 based on any one of an operation performed by a user, information being displayed on a screen, and information in the storage unit 12, and transmits the created information to the display panel 22.
The display control unit 11 determines whether or not to permit the user to change the setting item based on the password in the storage unit 12 and the password input by the user to the touch panel 23. Based on the determination result, the display control unit 11 displays a screen for changing the numerical value or a screen indicating prohibition of changing the numerical value on the display panel 22.
The display controller 11 receives a notification from the change prohibition setting unit 28X. Upon receiving the notification of permission of the numerical value change from the change prohibition setting unit 28X, the display control unit 11 receives the operation information sent from the numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25X and the coordinate information sent from the touch coordinate detection unit 24. On the other hand, if the notification of prohibiting the change of the numerical value is received from the change prohibition setting unit 28X, the display control unit 11 does not receive the operation information transmitted from the numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25X and the coordinate information transmitted from the touch coordinate detection unit 24.
The storage unit 12 stores a setting information table 101 described later. The setting information table 101 stores setting values, which are numerical values set by a user. The setting information table 101 includes information indicating whether the password for changing the setting item is valid or invalid.
The output unit 13 outputs the information set by the numerical input setting device 10 to the tension control device 2 as an external device. In other words, the output unit 13 outputs information set by the user to the tension control device 2 using the operation panel 20. The output unit 13 may output the information set in the numerical input setting device 10 to an external device other than the tension control device 2.
The touch coordinate detecting unit 24 and the display control unit 11 may be Integrated Circuits (ICs) or circuits processed by a microcomputer. The memory unit 12 is formed using an integrated circuit.
Fig. 3 is a diagram showing an example of display contents displayed on the display panel according to the embodiment. Here, a case will be described in which the setting items displayed on the panel unit 21 are both the maximum diameter and the minimum diameter, and the setting value is the value of the maximum diameter and the value of the minimum diameter. The maximum diameter is the maximum value of the diameter of the mechanical winding shaft or of the material wound on the winding shaft, and the minimum diameter is the minimum value of the diameter of the mechanical winding shaft or of the material wound on the winding shaft.
When the user operates the touch panel 23 to designate a setting item by the operation, the display panel 22 displays a setting item name 42 which is the name of the designated setting item and a numerical value column 43 indicating the setting value of the setting item name 42. The display panel 22 displays a screen name 41, and the screen name 41 is a name obtained by naming an item name corresponding to the currently displayed setting item name 42. Fig. 3 shows a case where the display panel 22 simultaneously displays the setting item name 42, that is, "maximum diameter" and the numerical values of "minimum diameter" and "maximum diameter", that is, "2000" and the numerical value of "minimum diameter", that is, "1000".
The display panel 22 simultaneously displays a blinking cursor 44, which is an underline cursor blinking in the numerical value field 43, and a lighting cursor 45, which is a normal underline cursor not blinking. Fig. 3 shows a case where the display panel 22 displays the blinking cursor 44 at "2000", which is a numerical value of the "maximum diameter", and displays the lighting cursor 45 at "1000", which is a numerical value of the "minimum diameter". The blinking cursor 44 indicates a numerical value currently waiting to be changed, and the lighting cursor 45 indicates a numerical value that can be changed to waiting to be changed if selected by the user. In other words, the blinking cursor 44 indicates that the increase/decrease operation on the set value is accepted, and the lighting cursor 45 indicates that the increase/decrease operation on the set value is not accepted at present.
The method of displaying whether or not the numerical value is waiting to be changed is not limited to the method of using the blinking cursor 44 and the lighting cursor 45. The display panel 22 may display a cursor only on the minimum digit of the numerical value to be changed. The display panel 22 may display the numerical value waiting for change in a black-and-white inverted manner, or may display the numerical value waiting for change in a blinking manner. As described above, any display method may be used for the display panel 22 as long as the display method can determine the numerical value waiting for change.
Further, the display panel 22 displays a password matching display field 46 on the upper right of the display screen, and the password matching display field 46 indicates whether or not the password input by the user matches the set password. When the password matches, the display panel 22 sets "Pr: OFF is displayed in the password matching display field 46, and when the password does not match, the "Pr: ON "is displayed in the password agreement display field 46. In addition, the display panel 22, regardless of whether or not the correct password is input, in the case where the change of the numerical value is permitted, sets "Pr: OFF is displayed in the password matching display field 46.
Next, an example of the operation of changing the numerical value displayed on the panel unit 21 will be described. Fig. 4 is a diagram for explaining an example of the numerical value changing operation according to the embodiment. Here, the numerical value changing operation in a state where the numerical value input to the setting item is not set to be invalid by the lock key 31 and the protection of the numerical value display or the numerical value setting by the password is not opened will be described.
The operation panel 20 enters a standby state a1 after displaying a screen of setting items corresponding to an instruction from the user. The wait for change state a1 is a state of waiting for processing in which a value is changed by a user. When the setting items are "maximum diameter" and "minimum diameter", the display panel 22 displays the blinking cursor 44 or the lighting cursor 45 at the numerical values of "maximum diameter" and "minimum diameter". The display panel 22 displays a blinking cursor 44 for one numerical value and a lighting cursor 45 for the other numerical value among the numerical values being displayed. The screen in the standby state a1 shown in fig. 4 shows a case where the display panel 22 displays the blinking cursor 44 at the numerical value of "maximum diameter" and the lighting cursor 45 at the numerical value of "minimum diameter". Therefore, the wait for change state a1 shown in fig. 4 is the wait for change state a1 of "maximum diameter".
In this way, in the waiting-to-change state a1, the setting values displayed on the display panel 22 include the numerical value of the "maximum diameter" which is the 1 st setting value and the numerical value of the "minimum diameter" which is the 2 nd setting value. In the 1 st reception state in which the increase/decrease operation of the numerical value of the "maximum diameter" is received, the display control unit 11 displays the blinking cursor 44 below the numerical value of the "maximum diameter" and displays the lighting cursor 45 below the numerical value of the "minimum diameter".
When the number of setting items displayed on the display screen is 3 or more, the display panel 22 displays the blinking cursor 44 on the numerical value of any 1 setting item and displays the lighting cursor 45 on the remaining numerical values.
In the wait for change state a1, if the process B1 of rotating the dial 26 is performed by the user, the operation panel 20 is shifted from the wait for change state a1 of "maximum diameter" to the increasing or decreasing state a2 of "maximum diameter". The increasing/decreasing state a2 is a state in which the increasing/decreasing operation by the user is in progress, showing the numeric value of the blinking cursor 44. In other words, the increasing/decreasing state a2 is a state in which an input for changing a numerical value is accepted.
When the blinking cursor 44 is displayed as the numerical value of the setting item, the dial plate 26 receives an increase/decrease operation from the user. Thereby, the display control unit 11 increases or decreases the numerical value of the "maximum diameter" of the display blinking cursor 44 to a value based on the increase or decrease operation. Specifically, the display panel 22 increases or decreases the numerical value by an amount corresponding to the rotational operation of the dial plate 26. Here, since the numerical value of the blinking cursor 44 is displayed as the numerical value of the "maximum diameter", the display panel 22 increases or decreases the numerical value of the "maximum diameter" by an amount corresponding to the rotational operation of the dial plate 26. At this time, the display panel 22 increases or decreases the numerical value of the "maximum diameter" based on the rotation direction and rotation angle of the dial plate 26. Then, if the rotation operation of the dial plate 26 is finished, the operation panel 20 returns from the increasing/decreasing state a2 to the waiting state a 1. Further, if the rotating operation continues for a certain time period without being operated, the operation panel 20 determines that the rotating operation of the dial plate 26 has ended.
In addition, if the process B2 in which the numerical value display area of the "minimum diameter" in which the lighting cursor 45 is displayed, that is, the numerical value column 43, is touched by the user is executed in the wait-for-change state a1, the operation panel 20 is shifted from the wait-for-change state a1 of the "maximum diameter" to the wait-for-change state A3 of the "minimum diameter". The "minimum diameter" waiting-to-change state a3 is a state of waiting for a process in which the value of the "minimum diameter" is changed by the user.
In this way, in the 2 nd reception state in which the increase/decrease operation of the numerical value of the "minimum diameter" is received, the display control unit 11 displays the blinking cursor 44 below the numerical value of the "minimum diameter" and displays the lighting cursor 45 below the numerical value of the "maximum diameter".
If the process B3 of rotating the dial 26 is performed by the user in the wait for change state A3, the operation panel 20 shifts from the wait for change state A3 of "minimum diameter" to the increasing or decreasing state a4 of "minimum diameter". The increasing/decreasing state a4 is a state in which the numerical value of the blinking cursor 44 is displayed in an increasing/decreasing operation.
When the blinking cursor 44 is displayed as the numerical value of the setting item, the dial plate 26 receives an increase/decrease operation from the user. Thereby, the display control unit 11 increases or decreases the numerical value of the setting item on which the blinking cursor 44 is displayed to a value based on the increase or decrease operation. Specifically, the display panel 22 increases or decreases the numerical value by an amount corresponding to the rotational operation of the dial plate 26. Here, since the numerical value on which the blinking cursor 44 is displayed is the numerical value of the "minimum diameter", the display panel 22 increases or decreases the numerical value of the "minimum diameter" by an amount corresponding to the rotational operation of the dial plate 26. At this time, the display panel 22 increases or decreases the numerical value of the "minimum diameter" based on the rotation direction and rotation angle of the dial plate 26. Then, if the rotation operation of the dial plate 26 is finished, the operation panel 20 returns from the increasing/decreasing state a4 to the waiting state A3.
If the process B4 in which the numerical value column 43 of "minimum diameter" with the blinking cursor 44 displayed is touched again by the user is executed in the wait for change state A3, the operation panel 20 transitions from the wait for change state A3 of "minimum diameter" to the direct-input state a5 of "minimum diameter". The state a5 in the direct input of "minimum diameter" is a state in which the numerical value of "minimum diameter" is input by the user with the keypad, and the display panel 22 changes the numerical value of "minimum diameter" to the numerical value input by the user with the keypad. In the direct input in state a5 of "minimum diameter", the display panel 22 performs pop-up display of a keypad input screen for performing keypad input. In this case, the display control unit 11 may display the keypad such that the numeric value input means, i.e., the keypad does not overlap the setting item name 42 and the screen name 41. Then, the display panel 22 changes the displayed numerical value of the "minimum diameter" to the numerical value input by the user using the keypad.
In this way, the numerical value of the "minimum diameter" can be directly changed by the operation panel 20 by performing the keypad input. When the keypad is displayed on the display panel 22, the display control unit 11 may simultaneously display the set value before the change and the set value after the change.
The operation panel 20 transmits the numeric value input by the keypad to the display control unit 11 of the numeric value input setting device 10 via the touch coordinate detection unit 24. At this time, if the user touches the touch surface, the touch panel 23 generates a signal corresponding to the touched position, and transmits the generated signal to the touch coordinate detecting unit 24. In this way, the touch coordinate detecting unit 24 detects the coordinates touched by the user based on the signal transmitted from the touch panel 23, and transmits the detected coordinates to the display control unit 11. The display control unit 11 detects whether an arbitrary numerical value is touched based on the transmitted coordinates and the position of the keypad being displayed.
If the user presses the enter key indicated by "ENT" on the touch panel 23, the operation panel 20 determines the numerical value of "minimum diameter" in the input display, and the display panel 22 causes the screen displayed in the pop-up display of the keypad input screen to disappear. Further, if the user presses the exit key indicated by "ESC" on the touch panel 23, the operation panel 20 cancels the numerical value of "minimum diameter" in the input display, and the display panel 22 disappears the pop-up display of the keypad input screen. If the user performs the process B5 of pressing the enter key or the exit key, the operation panel 20 determines or cancels the numerical value of "minimum diameter" and again becomes the wait-for-change state A3. The display control unit 11 may display numerical value input means other than a keypad on the display panel 22. The display control unit 11 may cause the display panel 22 to display numerical value input means for scrolling and displaying 0 to 9 numerical values for each digit of the numerical value so that the user can specify the numerical value of each digit.
Here, the flow of switching the operation panel 20 is explained. Fig. 5 is a diagram for explaining a state transition flow of the operation panel according to the embodiment. After the setting items corresponding to the instructions from the user are displayed on the screen, the operation panel 20 is in the standby state a1 of "maximum diameter" or the standby state A3 of "minimum diameter". The operation panel 20 is set to either the standby state a1 of the "maximum diameter" or the standby state A3 of the "minimum diameter" based on the transition state when the previous screen display is completed or the default transition state. Next, the transition between the states will be described.
(1) In the case where the operation panel 20 is in the wait for change state a1 of "maximum diameter", if the process B2 in which the numerical value column 43 of "minimum diameter" in which the lighting cursor 45 is displayed is touched by the user is executed, the operation panel 20 shifts from the wait for change state a1 of "maximum diameter" to the wait for change state A3 of "minimum diameter".
(2) In the case where the operation panel 20 is in the wait for change state A3 of "minimum diameter", if the process B0 in which the numerical value column 43 of "maximum diameter" in which the lighting cursor 45 is displayed is touched by the user is executed, the operation panel 20 is shifted from the wait for change state A3 of "minimum diameter" to the wait for change state a1 of "maximum diameter".
(3) In the case where operation panel 20 is in standby alteration state A3 of "minimum diameter", if process B3 of rotating dial 26 by the user is executed, operation panel 20 shifts from standby alteration state A3 of "minimum diameter" to increasing/decreasing state a4 of "minimum diameter". Further, if the process B3 by the user is finished, the operation panel 20 returns from the increasing/decreasing state a4 of "minimum diameter" to the waiting change state A3 of "minimum diameter".
(4) In the case where the operation panel 20 is in the wait-for-change state A3 of "minimum diameter", if the process B4 in which the numerical value column 43 of "minimum diameter" on which the blinking cursor 44 is displayed is touched again by the user is executed, the operation panel 20 is shifted from the wait-for-change state A3 of "minimum diameter" to the direct-input state a5 of "minimum diameter".
(5) In the case where the operation panel 20 is in the direct input state a5 of "minimum diameter", if the process B5 of pressing the enter key or the exit key by the user is executed, the operation panel 20 returns to the standby change state A3 of "minimum diameter".
(6) In the case where operation panel 20 is in standby alteration state a1 of "maximum diameter", if process B1 of rotating dial 26 is performed by the user, operation panel 20 is shifted from standby alteration state a1 of "maximum diameter" to increasing/decreasing state a2 of "maximum diameter". Further, if the process B1 by the user is finished, the operation panel 20 returns from the increasing/decreasing state a2 of "maximum diameter" to the waiting change state a1 of "maximum diameter".
(7) In the case where the operation panel 20 is in the wait-for-change state a1 of "maximum diameter", if the process B6 in which the numerical value column 43 of "maximum diameter" in which the blinking cursor 44 is displayed is touched again by the user is executed, the operation panel 20 shifts from the wait-for-change state a1 of "maximum diameter" to the direct-input state a6 of "maximum diameter". Here, the process B6 is the same as the process B4.
(8) In the case of the in-direct-input state a6 in which the operation panel 20 is "maximum diameter", if the process B7 of pressing the enter key or the exit key by the user is executed, the operation panel 20 returns to the standby change state a1 of "maximum diameter". Here, the process B7 is the same as the process B5.
Here, the operation of the operation display panel 1 will be described. Fig. 6 is a diagram showing an example of the operation display panel according to the embodiment. Fig. 6 shows a part of the operation display panel 1 and a signal flow between the components. Fig. 6 shows both the dial 26 and the plus/minus key 27 as examples of the numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25X. The increase/decrease key 27 is a numeric value increase/decrease key for increasing/decreasing a numeric value, and has an increase key for increasing the numeric value and a decrease key for decreasing the numeric value. When the increase/decrease key 27 is touched by the user, a signal indicating that the increase key is touched is transmitted to the touch coordinate detecting unit 24. When the user touches the decrease key, the increase/decrease key 27 transmits a signal indicating that the decrease key is touched to the touch coordinate detecting unit 24. In fig. 6, although the lock key 31 and the lock display 32 are shown as being disposed inside the numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25X, the lock key 31 and the lock display 32 may be disposed outside the numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25X.
The display panel 22 may display a dial 26 or an increase/decrease key 27. The display panel 22 may display both the dial 26 and the increase/decrease key 27. Fig. 7 is a diagram showing an example of a screen in which the dial and the increase/decrease keys are displayed on the display panel according to the embodiment. In fig. 7, the display panel 22 shows a screen 80A to be displayed. On the screen 80A, on one side of the numeric value field 43 in the lateral direction, an increase/decrease key 27X having the same function as the increase/decrease key 27 and a dial 26X having the same function as the dial 26 are displayed. In the following description, the dial 26X or the increase/decrease key 27X displayed on the display panel 22 is referred to as a numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25A. The numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25A is an example of the numerical value increase/decrease operation unit 25X. The display panel 22 switches and displays the numeric value increasing/decreasing operation unit 25A and the keypad on the screen. Fig. 8 is a diagram for explaining an example of screen switching processing according to the embodiment. As shown in fig. 8, the display panel 22 switches between a screen 80A on which the dial 26X and the plus/minus key 27X are displayed and a screen 80B on which the keypad is displayed. The method of operation of the display panel 22 by the user in this case is the same as the method explained in fig. 4. When the dial 26X or the up-down key 27X is operated by the user on the screen 80A, the display panel 22 transmits a signal corresponding to the operated position to the touch coordinate detecting unit 24. In this way, the touch coordinate detecting unit 24 detects the coordinates touched by the user based on the signal transmitted from the touch panel 23, and transmits the detected coordinates to the display control unit 11. The display control unit 11 detects whether any of the dial 26X and the increase/decrease key 27X is touched based on the transmitted coordinates and the positions of the dial 26X and the increase/decrease key 27X being displayed.
In the operation display panel 1, if an operation by the user is started, the display panel 22 displays a setting item designated by the user. Specifically, the display panel 22 displays the setting item name 42, the numerical value column 43, the blinking cursor 44, and the lighting cursor 45 at the same time. In this case, if the touch panel 23 is touched by the user, the touch panel 23 transmits a signal C1 corresponding to the touched position to the touch coordinate detecting section 24.
The touch coordinate detecting unit 24 detects the coordinates touched by the user based on the signal C1 sent from the touch panel 23. The touch coordinate detecting unit 24 transmits a signal C2 indicating the detected coordinates to the display control unit 11. The signal C2 corresponds to the aforementioned coordinate information.
When dial 26 is operated by the user, dial 26 transmits signal C3 corresponding to the dial operation to display control unit 11. When the increase/decrease key 27 is operated by the user, the increase/decrease key 27 transmits a signal C4 corresponding to the key operation to the display control unit 11. The signals C3 and C4 are signals for increasing or decreasing the values.
The display controller 11 receives the signal C5 indicating the contents of the setting information table 101 from the storage unit 12, and determines whether or not the signals C2 to C4 permit numerical value change based on the setting information table 101. The display control unit 11 creates a display instruction corresponding to the determination result, and transmits a signal C6 indicating the created display instruction to the display panel 22. Here, the configuration of the setting information table 101 is explained.
Fig. 9 is a diagram showing a configuration example of the setting information table according to the embodiment. In the setting information table 101, setting items, setting values, setting information indicating whether a setting password is valid or invalid, and monitor information indicating whether a monitor password is valid or invalid are associated. In the setting information table 101, the setting values, the setting information, and the monitor information are attributes of the setting items. The setting information table 101 includes a setting password and a monitor password. In this case, the attributes of both the setting password and the monitor password are set values.
The set value is a value set by a user or a default value. If the set value is changed by the user operating the operation panel 20, the display control unit 11 changes the set value of the setting information table 101.
The setting password is a password for determining whether or not to refer to the setting information in the setting information table 101 when the setting value is changed by the user. The display control unit 11 compares the setting password in the setting information table 101 with the setting password input by the user, and does not refer to the setting information in the setting information table 101 when the setting password matches the setting password input by the user. In this case, the display control unit 11 sets the numerical value input by the user as a new numerical value.
On the other hand, the display control unit 11 compares the setting password in the setting information table 101 with the setting password input by the user, and in the case where the password does not match the setting password, refers to the setting information in the setting information table 101. In this case, if the setting information is valid, the display control unit 11 prohibits the user from inputting the numerical value, and if the setting information is invalid, the display control unit 11 permits the user to input the numerical value.
In this way, when the setting password is valid, the display control unit 11 prohibits the user from changing the value of the setting item. On the other hand, when the setting password is invalid, the display control unit 11 permits the user to change the value of the setting item.
The monitor password is a password for determining whether or not to refer to the monitor information in the setting information table 101 when the user confirms the setting value. The display control unit 11 compares the monitor password in the setting information table 101 with the monitor password input by the user, and does not refer to the monitor information in the setting information table 101 when the two passwords match. In this case, the display control unit 11 causes the display panel 22 to display the numerical value of the setting item designated by the user.
On the other hand, the display control unit 11 compares the monitor password in the setting information table 101 with the monitor password input by the user, and in the case where the password does not match the monitor password, refers to the monitor information in the setting information table 101. In this case, the display control unit 11 does not display the numerical value of the setting item designated by the user on the display panel 22 if the monitor information is valid, and displays the numerical value of the setting item designated by the user on the display panel 22 if the monitor information is invalid.
In this way, when the monitor password is valid, the display control unit 11 prohibits the numerical value display of the setting item designated by the user. On the other hand, when the monitor password is invalid, the display control unit 11 permits the numerical value display of the setting item by the user.
In addition, a plurality of monitor passwords may be set. In this case, the monitor password is set for each setting item. In addition, a plurality of setting passwords may be set. In this case, the setting password is set for each setting item.
The display control unit 11 may collectively change setting information indicating whether or not to permit a change of the setting value. In other words, the display control unit 11 may set the setting information to be valid or invalid in a unified manner.
The display control unit 11 may collectively change monitor information indicating whether or not to permit display of the setting value. In other words, the display control unit 11 may set the monitor information to be valid or invalid at a time.
Next, the flow of operation processing of the operation display panel 1 will be described. Fig. 10 is a flowchart showing a flow of operation processing of the operation display panel according to the embodiment. Here, whether or not the switching process of the numerical value input is performed by an arbitrary method will be described. The display control unit 11 waits for an operation from the user after displaying the setting screen designated by the user on the display panel 22. In step S10, the display control unit 11 determines whether the dial 26 or the increase/decrease key 27 is operated by the user. The operation of the dial 26 or the increase/decrease key 27 by the user is an operation for increasing or decreasing the numerical value displayed on the display panel 22.
When the dial 26 or the up-down key 27 is operated, that is, when Yes is obtained in step S10, the display controller 11 increases or decreases the numerical value displayed on the display panel 22 together with the blinking cursor 44 to a value corresponding to the operation by the user in step S20. Then, the operation panel 20 is in the waiting-to-change state a1 or the waiting-to-change state A3. If the dial 26 or the increase/decrease key 27 is in the standby state a1 of "maximum diameter" before being operated, the control panel 20 returns to the standby state a1 of "maximum diameter". Further, if the dial 26 or the increase/decrease key 27 is in the standby state A3 of "minimum diameter" before being operated, the operation panel 20 returns to the standby state A3 of "minimum diameter". Next, a case in which the standby state a1 is the "maximum diameter" before the dial 26 or the increase/decrease key 27 is operated will be described.
In step S10, when the dial 26 or the up-down key 27 is not operated, that is, when No is obtained in step S10, the display controller 11 determines in step S30 whether the numerical value on which the lighting cursor 45 is displayed is touched by the user.
When the user touches the numerical value on which the light cursor 45 is displayed, that is, when Yes is obtained in step S30, the display controller 11 sets the touched numerical value as a changeable item in step S40. At this time, the display control unit 11 changes the lighting cursor 45 displayed below the touched numerical value to the blinking cursor 44. Further, the display control unit 11 displays the lighting cursor 45 below the numerical value other than the touched numerical value. Specifically, the display control unit 11 sets the "minimum diameter" as the changeable item, and displays the blinking cursor 44 below the numerical value of the "minimum diameter" and the lighting cursor 45 below the numerical value of the "maximum diameter". Then, the operation panel 20 is changed to the "minimum diameter" waiting state a 3.
In step S30, when the user does not touch the numerical value on which the light cursor 45 is displayed, that is, when No is obtained in step S30, the display controller 11 determines whether or not the numerical value on which the item can be changed is touched in step S50. The numerical value of the changeable item is the numerical value on which the blinking cursor 44 is displayed. Therefore, the display control unit 11 determines whether the numerical value on which the blinking cursor 44 is displayed is touched by the user.
When the numerical value of the changeable item is touched, that is, when Yes is obtained in step S50, the display controller 11 causes the display panel 22 to display the keypad in step S60, and receives the keypad input from the user. The display panel 22 then displays the keypad entered value in the "smallest diameter" value column 43. Thereafter, if the user presses the enter key, the numeric value input by the keypad is determined. Then, the operation panel 20 is changed to the "minimum diameter" waiting state a 3. If the value of the item that can be changed is not touched, that is, if No in step S50, the operation panel 20 is still in the "minimum diameter" waiting change state A3.
Step S20 described in fig. 10 corresponds to the processing of the increasing/decreasing state a2 described in fig. 4, and step S40 described in fig. 10 corresponds to the transition from the waiting-to-change state a1 of "maximum diameter" described in fig. 4 to the waiting-to-change state A3 of "minimum diameter". In addition, step S60 illustrated in fig. 10 corresponds to the processing in the state a5 in direct input illustrated in fig. 4.
Next, an example of a screen displayed on the display panel 22 will be described. Fig. 11 is a diagram for explaining an example of a screen displayed on the display panel according to the embodiment and an example of an operation performed by a user. The screen 81 is a screen in which the setting value can be changed. Here, the screen 81 shows a standby state a1 of "maximum diameter". The display panel 22 here displays the blinking cursor 44 below the numerical value of "maximum diameter", and displays the lighting cursor 45 below the numerical value of "minimum diameter".
In this state, if the user presses the lock key 31, the display control unit 11 prohibits the currently set value from being changed. Then, the display control unit 11 causes the display panel 22 to display a screen 82, in which the screen 82 indicates a state in which the currently set setting value is prohibited from being changed. Specifically, the display control unit 11 turns off both the lighting cursor 45 and the blinking cursor 44 on the display panel 22. The display control unit 11 turns on the lock display 32 to indicate that the currently set value is prohibited from being changed. Although the operation panel 20 may not include the lock display 32, the user can easily grasp whether or not the operation panel 20 is in a state in which the change of the currently set value is prohibited by using the lock display 32.
Further, if the user inputs an instruction to display the password input screen from the touch panel 23, the display control unit 11 causes the display panel 22 to display the screen 83, which is the password input screen. The screen 83 has an area for displaying the setting password input by the user and an area for displaying the monitor password input by the user.
A setting password matching display field 65 indicating whether or not a correct setting password is input is provided on the right side of the area where the setting password is displayed. The setting password matching display column 65 is lit when the setting password in the setting information table 101 matches the setting password input by the user, and is turned off when the setting password does not match the setting password.
A monitor code matching display column 66 indicating whether or not a correct monitor code has been input is provided on the right side of the area where the monitor code is displayed. The monitor password coincidence display field 66 is lit when the monitor password in the setting information table 101 coincides with the monitor password input by the user, and is turned off when the monitor password does not coincide with the monitor password input by the user.
When the user inputs the setting password, the display panel 22 displays the setting password input by the user on the screen 83. Then, the display control unit 11 compares the setting password in the setting information table 101 with the setting password input by the user, and reads the setting information in the setting information table 101 if they do not match. In this case, for example, when the user inputs a setting password of "maximum diameter", the display control unit 11 reads the setting information as the attribute of "maximum diameter" and determines whether the setting information is valid or invalid. In this way, the display control unit 11 determines whether or not to prohibit a numerical value change of the setting item to be the target, based on the setting information table 101.
When the setting information is valid, the display control unit 11 prohibits the setting change based on the password. At this time, the display control unit 11 displays the screen 84 on the display panel 22, and the screen 84 turns off the blinking cursor 44 and the lighting cursor 45. Since the password does not match and the setting information is valid, the display control unit 11 causes the "Pr: ON "is displayed in the password agreement display field 46.
On the other hand, when the setting information is invalid, the display control unit 11 displays the screen 81 because the change of the setting value is permitted. Thereby, the display panel 22 displays the blinking cursor 44 below the numerical value of "maximum diameter" and the lighting cursor 45 below the numerical value of "minimum diameter". Further, since the setting information is invalid, the display control unit 11 causes the "Pr: OFF is displayed in the password agreement display field 46. In this way, when the setting information is invalid, the display control unit 11 causes the display panel 22 to display a screen 81 indicating that the change of the setting value is permitted.
The display control unit 11 compares the setting password in the setting information table 101 with the setting password input by the user, and if they match, determines whether the setting information table 101 is valid or invalid without using it. In this case, the display control unit 11 allows the setting value to be changed, and therefore displays the screen 81. Although the operation panel 20 may not display the password matching display field 46, the user can easily grasp whether or not the password matching display field 46 is in a state in which the change of the numerical value is prohibited by displaying the password matching display field 46 on the operation panel 20.
The operation panel 20 also performs the same processing as the setting of the password on the monitor password. That is, when the monitor password is input by the user, the display panel 22 displays the monitor password input by the user on the screen 83. Then, the display control unit 11 compares the monitor password in the setting information table 101 with the monitor password input by the user, and reads the monitor information in the setting information table 101 if they do not match. In this case, when the user inputs the monitor password of "maximum diameter", the display control unit 11 reads the monitor information, which is the attribute of "maximum diameter", and determines whether the monitor information is valid or invalid. In this way, the display control unit 11 determines whether or not to prohibit the numerical value display of the setting item to be the target, based on the setting information table 101.
When the monitor information is valid, the display control unit 11 prohibits the numerical value display. At this time, the display control unit 11 displays a screen 85 on the display panel 22, and the screen 85 turns off the numerical value of the setting item.
On the other hand, when the monitor information is invalid, the display control unit 11 allows the setting value to be displayed, and therefore, the screen 81 is displayed. Thereby, the display panel 22 displays the blinking cursor 44 below the numerical value of "maximum diameter" and the lighting cursor 45 below the numerical value of "minimum diameter". In this way, when the monitor information is invalid, the display control unit 11 causes the display panel 22 to display the screen 81, and the screen 81 indicates the display of the permission setting value.
The display control unit 11 compares the monitor password in the setting information table 101 with the monitor password input by the user, and if they match, does not determine whether the setting information table 101 is valid or invalid. In this case, the display control unit 11 allows the setting value to be displayed, and therefore displays the screen 81. Although the operation panel 20 may not display the password matching display field 46, the user can easily grasp whether or not the display of the set value is prohibited by displaying the password matching display field 46 on the operation panel 20.
Note that, setting information indicating whether or not to permit a change of a setting value and monitor information indicating whether or not to permit a display of a setting value are examples of attributes, and the display control unit 11 may store other attributes in the setting information table 101. The display control unit 11 may store the operation state of the product in the setting information table 101 in association with the setting items based on an instruction from the administrator operating the display panel 1. In this case, the display control unit 11 can set whether or not to permit the change of the set value for each operation state. Thus, the display control unit 11 can prohibit the change of the set value when there is a possibility that an unexpected operation may be performed if the set value is changed.
The display control unit 11 may store the condition for determining whether to use the setting item in the setting information table 101 in association with the setting item based on an instruction from the administrator operating the display panel 1. In this case, the display control unit 11 can set the setting items that do not need to be set to non-display based on the condition. In this way, the display control unit 11 can give the administrator who operates the display panel 1 permission to change the setting value and permission to display the setting value by giving the setting item an attribute that restricts the change of the setting value or the display of the setting value.
Here, a hardware configuration of the numerical value input setting device 10 is explained. Fig. 12 is a diagram showing an example of a hardware configuration of the numerical value input setting device according to the embodiment. The numerical value input setting device 10 can be realized by a control circuit 300 shown in fig. 12, that is, a processor 301 and a memory 302. The processor 301 is a CPU (also referred to as a Central Processing Unit, arithmetic Unit, microprocessor, microcomputer, processor, DSP), system lsi (large Scale integration), or the like. The Memory 302 is a nonvolatile or volatile semiconductor Memory such as a ram (random Access Memory), a rom (Read Only Memory), a flash Memory, an eprom (Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory), an EEPROM (registered trademark), a magnetic disk, a flexible disk, an optical disk, a compact disk, a mini disk, or a dvd (digital Versatile disc).
The numerical value input setting device 10 is realized by the processor 301 reading and executing a program stored in the memory 302 and used for operating as the numerical value input setting device 10. The program is also referred to as a program for causing a computer to execute the flow or method of the display control unit 11. The memory 302 is also used as a temporary memory when the processor 301 executes various processes.
As such, the program executed by the processor 301 is a computer program product containing a plurality of commands executable by a computer for performing data processing, and having a non-transitory recording medium readable by the computer. The program executed by the processor 301 causes the computer to execute a plurality of commands for data processing.
The numerical value input setting device 10 may be implemented by dedicated hardware. The functions of the numerical value input setting device 10 may be partially implemented by dedicated hardware, or partially implemented by software or firmware.
In the embodiment, the case where 2 setting values are displayed simultaneously on the panel unit 21 is described, but 1 setting value may be displayed on the panel unit 21, or 3 or more setting values may be displayed simultaneously. The panel unit 21 may display a 1-bit setting value or a multi-bit setting value.
In the operation display panel 1 of the embodiment, the operation of selecting a setting item and the input operation of inputting a setting value by the keypad are common to the touch operation of the setting item. Therefore, the user can select the setting item and input the numerical value by touch operation of the setting item, and thus the operation can be easily performed.
As described above, according to the embodiment, when the dial 26 or the up/down key 27 is operated, the numerical value input setting device 10 increases/decreases the set value to which the blinking cursor 44 is added, and when the set value to which the blinking cursor 44 is added is touched, displays the keypad and receives the keypad input. Thus, the instruction to increase or decrease the numerical value and the direct input of the numerical value can be easily switched on a compact screen without disposing the switching element for setting input on the operation panel 20. Therefore, the numerical value input setting device 10 can suppress the display area of information and realize high operability.
Further, since the numerical value input setting device 10 manages permission of change or display of the setting value by using the setting information table 101, it is possible to prohibit or cancel the change or display of the setting value at once. This can prevent inadvertent change of the set value and outflow of information.
The configuration shown in the above embodiment is an example of the content of the present invention, and may be combined with other known techniques, and a part of the configuration may be omitted or modified without departing from the scope of the present invention.
