The printer has the functions of printing, nozzle calibration, flash spraying and the like.
Referring to fig. 1, the method of the present invention specifically includes the following steps:
s1: and responding to the control instruction input from the touch screen, and acquiring corresponding control information.
As shown in fig. 2a, the man-machine interaction modules such as setting, cleaning, detecting, flashing, calibrating, etc. keys or graphics are displayed in the touch screen, and touching the corresponding modules represents to control the printer to execute corresponding actions. When the man-machine interaction modules are triggered manually, the touch screen generates corresponding control information, and the corresponding control information is output to the printer through the data line. In response to an input from the touch screen, the printer control board acquires control information of the input.
In one embodiment, the touch screen is connected with the printer control board through a serial port, and when the touch screen is operated, the touch screen sends a 16-system instruction stream coded according to a preset protocol to the serial port, namely, the control information is transmitted to the printer control board in a 16-system instruction stream mode.
S2: and generating corresponding action instructions for the printer to execute according to the control information, wherein the action instructions comprise at least one action command and at least one parameter.
Specifically, the control information cannot be directly identified to the control board of the printer, and the control board needs to analyze the acquired control information according to the analysis rule of the predetermined protocol to generate an action instruction which can be identified by the control board of the printer. Wherein the instruction includes at least one action command and at least one parameter.
In one embodiment, at the printer end, the control board decodes the 16-system instruction stream encoded according to the predetermined protocol at the touch screen end according to the predetermined protocol to generate an action instruction, a parameter modification instruction and the like which can be identified by the control board.
In one embodiment, the action instructions include a number of action commands and a corresponding number of parameters. Wherein the parameters herein include motion parameters, non-motion parameters (e.g., machine parameters). For example, in the "flash" action instruction, the following action command is included: the printing trolley moves to the action commands such as the flashing position, the flashing on, the flashing off, the printing trolley returns to the printing position and the like, and the corresponding relevant parameters such as the flashing position, the flashing time, the printing position and the like. These action commands are recognizable by the control board.
S3: and controlling the printer to work according to the action instruction.
And according to the analyzed action instructions, the control panel controls the printer to sequentially execute the action instructions included in the action instructions. Illustratively, the control board controls the printer to perform corresponding actions according to the action commands and parameters included in the "flash" action command: and controlling the print trolley to move to a flashing position with set parameters, to start flashing, to continue the flashing time with set parameters, to return to the original printing position, and the like.
In one embodiment, when the printer executes the action instruction, the status information can be returned according to the action execution condition, the control board encodes the status information according to a preset encoding rule, an instruction which can be identified by the touch screen is generated, the instruction is returned to the touch screen, the touch screen displays a corresponding control interface according to the returned instruction, and an operator is prompted about which action command or execution condition the printer is executing. The status information includes execution progress information when the printer is executing the action command, execution completion information when the printer completes the action command, execution error information when the printer executes the action command to cause erroneous execution or stop execution, and the like.
In one embodiment, the status information generated during the execution of the action of the printer or the status information generated under other conditions such as parameter change is encoded according to a predetermined protocol to generate a 16-system instruction stream, the 16-system instruction stream is sent to the touch screen through the serial port, and after the touch screen receives the instruction stream, the touch screen decodes the instruction stream according to the predetermined protocol and executes a corresponding instruction, so that the information is displayed in the touch screen.
In one embodiment, the action instruction includes N action commands, where N is a natural number greater than or equal to 1. And the control board controls the printer to sequentially execute corresponding actions according to the analyzed action commands and parameters, and acquires the state information from the printer. The specific steps are as follows:
when the printer executes the first action command, generating execution progress information of the first action command;
When the printer completes the first action command, generating execution completion information of the first action command;
When the printer executes the second action command, generating execution progress information of the second action command;
when the printer completes the second action command, generating execution completion information of the second action command;
And by analogy, when the printer executes the Nth action command, the execution progress information and the execution completion information of the Nth action command are generated.
In one embodiment, if an abnormal condition occurs while the printer is executing the nth action command, causing the action command to be erroneously executed or to be suspended/stopped to be executed, the printing is controlled to stop executing the current nth action command and the subsequent action commands, and execution error information is generated.
In one embodiment, the control board generates an execution progress display instruction and an execution completion display instruction according to the execution progress information and the execution completion information returned by the printer, wherein the execution progress display instruction is used for driving the touch screen to display the execution progress information, and the execution completion display instruction is used for driving the touch screen to display the execution completion information. Corresponding action execution information is displayed on the touch screen, so that operators can conveniently master the working condition of the printer at any time, judge whether an action command is wrong, correct wrong operation and the like.
Illustratively, the printer is "flash-jetted", and the action commands include: and the print trolley moves to a flash-spraying position, opens flash-spraying, closes the flash-spraying, returns to a printing position and the like.
When the printer executes the action command of 'the print trolley moving to the flashing position', the execution progress information of the print trolley moving to the flashing position is returned, and after the control board acquires the execution progress information, an execution progress display command is generated to drive the touch screen to display related information, for example, a text prompt window of 'the print trolley moving to the flashing position' or a static graph/dynamic graph picture prompt window representing 'the print trolley moving to the flashing position' is popped up as shown in fig. 2 b.
When the printer finishes the action command of 'the print trolley moving to the flash spraying position', returning the execution completion information of 'the print trolley moving to the flash spraying position'; after the control board acquires the execution completion information, an execution progress display instruction is generated, and the touch screen is driven to display the execution condition of related actions, for example, a text prompt window of popping up the print trolley to the flash position shown in fig. 2c, or a static graph/dynamic graph picture prompt window representing that the print trolley is moved to the flash position. In another embodiment, the operator can also determine whether to proceed with the next operation according to the state information displayed on the current touch screen.
And by analogy, when the printer executes one action command, the corresponding execution progress information and execution completion information of the action command are returned, and the control board generates an execution progress display instruction and an execution completion display instruction from the acquired execution progress information and the execution completion information, so that the touch screen is driven to display the relevant action execution condition and the completion condition, and an operator can master the execution condition of the action command by the printer at any time.
In one embodiment, when the printer executes the nth action command, an error occurs, and according to the execution error information, the control board generates an error state display instruction, where the error state display instruction is used to drive the touch screen to display the error information.
For example, when the printer starts to execute the action command of "open flash", the action command cannot be executed correctly due to the occurrence of an abnormal condition, and at this time, the printer will stop executing the action command of "open flash" and the subsequent execution error information such as "close flash", "print carriage returns to the printing position", and returns the execution error information such as "open flash abnormality"; after the control board acquires the execution error information, an error state display instruction is generated, and the touch screen is driven to display the relevant action execution condition, for example, a word prompt window of "open flash abnormality" or a static graph/dynamic graph picture prompt window representing "open flash abnormality" is popped up as shown in fig. 2d, or a beeping sound is generated at the same time, so that an operator is reminded of the occurrence of the execution abnormality or error, and the equipment is detected or repaired in time.

After the control information is acquired by the printer control board, the control information from the touch screen is analyzed according to an analysis rule of a preset protocol, and an action instruction which can be identified by the printer control board is generated. The action command comprises at least one action command and at least one parameter, wherein the action command is 'set-printing speed', the parameter is '3.88 mm/s', the action command and the parameter can be identified by a printer control panel, and when the printer is started, the printer is controlled to perform ink-jet printing according to the set printing speed.
In one embodiment, when the printer performs inkjet printing according to the set printing speed, execution progress information may be generated and fed back to the touch screen, and displayed by a control interface of the touch screen. For example, the generated execution progress information is: and (3) carrying out normal printing, wherein the printing speed is 3.88mm/s, the control board of the printer encodes the execution progress information according to a preset encoding rule, generates an instruction which can be identified by the touch screen, sends the instruction to the touch screen through a data line, decodes the instruction stream according to a preset protocol after the touch screen receives the instruction stream, and displays the execution progress information in a preset area.
