Abstract

Dans des systemes agissant a distance avec une transmission de donnees entre une centrale et plusieurs sous-stations (US1...USn), des annonces spontanees doivent etre transmises de ces sous-stations, de preference apres une interrogation, a la centrale. On vise a obtenir l'interrogation sure et a court terme de toutes les sous-stations sur la presence d'annonces spontanees avec l'interrogation successive et adressee des sous-stations ayant lesdites annonces spontanees, Apres l'appel collectif depuis la centrale, on effectue dans un bref delai, aupres de toutes les sous-stations de la serie et selon le niveau de transmission, une mise en et hors circuit, a laquelle seules les sous-stations (US3) ayant une annonce spontanee ne reagissent pas. La centrale interprete les impulsions transitoires resultant de la mise en et hors circuit du niveau de transmission comme une interrogation adressee.In systems operating remotely with a data transmission between a central and several substations (US1 ... USn), spontaneous announcements must be transmitted from these substations, preferably after interrogation, to the central. The aim is to obtain secure and short-term interrogation of all the substations on the presence of spontaneous announcements with the successive interrogation and address of the substations having said spontaneous announcements, After the collective call from the central, within a short period of time, all the substations in the series and depending on the transmission level, are switched on and off, to which only the sub-stations (US3) having a spontaneous announcement do not react. The control unit interprets the transient pulses resulting from switching the transmission level on and off as an addressed interrogation.

Description

Identifikationsverfahren bei Fernwirksystemen im Gemein- schaftsverkehrIdentification procedure for telecontrol systems in community traffic
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Identifikationsverfahren bei Fernwirksystemen im Gemeinschaftsverkehr, bei dem aus einer Zentrale eine Generalabfrage innerhalb eines Zyklus nach spontanen Informationen gesendet wird und eine Rückmeldung der Unterstation erfolgt.The invention relates to an identification method in telecontrol systems in community traffic, in which a general request is sent from a central station within a cycle for spontaneous information and a feedback from the substation takes place.
Bei Fernwirksystemen müssen in die zu übermittelnden laufenden Prozessinformationen (Meldungen, Messwerte, Zählwerte) von den UnterStationen zur Zentrale kurzfristig Spontanmeldungen gesendet werden. Diese Uebermittlung erfolgt beispielsweise nach einem Aufruftelegramm von der Zentrale, sie kann aber auch durch eine kontinuierliche Abfrage aller Unterstationen erfolgen. Im Gemeinschaftsverkehr sind dabei alle UnterStationen an eine Bus-Leitung angeschlossen, die aus einem Steuerkanal und einem Ueberwachungskanal besteht. Im Steuerkanal werden die UnterStationen aufgerufen und im Ueberwachungskanal geben sie ihre Informationen an die Zentrale (Buch: "Fernwirktechnik", Bendorf, Bizer, Gerner, Müller, Rödig, Schindele, Schmudlach, Wolfgarten, VDI-Ver- lag, 1975, S. 27-29). Zu bestimmten Zeiten erfolgt also von der Zentrale ein Aufruf an alle UnterStationen, ob eine spontane Information vorliegt. Unter spontanen Informationen werden Meldungen ver standen, die entsprechend.ihrer Bedeutung spontan und unmittelbar übertragen werden müssen. Diese spontanen Informationen, die nur sehr sporadisch vorhanden sind, müssen also aus der Vielzahl der Unterstationen identifiziert werden.In the case of telecontrol systems, spontaneous reports must be sent from the sub-stations to the head office in the ongoing process information (messages, measured values, counts) to be transmitted. This transmission takes place, for example, after a call telegram from the head office, but it can also be carried out by continuously polling all substations. In community traffic, all sub-stations are connected to a bus line, which consists of a control channel and a monitoring channel. The sub-stations are called up in the control channel and they give their information to the control center in the monitoring channel (book: "Fernwirktechnik", Bendorf, Bizer, Gerner, Müller, Rödig, Schindele, Schmudlach, Wolfgarten, VDI-Verlag, 1975, p. 27 -29). At certain times, the central office calls to all sub-stations whether there is spontaneous information. Spontaneous information is understood to mean messages that must be transmitted spontaneously and immediately according to their meaning. This spontaneous information, which is only very sporadically available, must therefore be identified from the large number of substations.
Bei der Uebertragung von Informationen im Gemeinschaftsve kehr können sich Telegramme überlappen, was zu Störungen führt. Es muss deshalb dafür gesorgt werden, dass die Telgramme seriell an die Zentrale übertragen werden.When transmitting information in community traffic, telegrams can overlap, which leads to malfunctions. It must therefore be ensured that the telegrams are transmitted to the control center serially.
Es ist bekannt, in einem Zyklus von der Zentrale aus die Unterstationen der Reihe nach oder alle auf einmal abzufragen und auf Antwort zu warten (Zeitstaffelung). Da die angefallenen Informationen nur seriell übertragen werden können, ist dieses Verfahren mit erheblichem Zeitaufwand verbunden. Da in sehr vielen UnterStationen keine spontanen Informationen anfallen, diese Stationen aber trotzdem abgefragt werden, sind die Uebertragungsleitunge für die Dauer der Abfrage blockiert, und dieses Verfahren ist unwirtschaftlich. Es ist auch bekannt, nur einen Teilabschnitt der Unterstationen abzufragen, um so eine Aussa über das Vorhandensein von spontanen Meldungen zu erhalteIt is known to query the substations in sequence or all at once in a cycle from the central station and to wait for a response (time grading). Since the information obtained can only be transmitted serially, this process is time-consuming. Since there is no spontaneous information in a large number of sub-stations, but these stations are nevertheless queried, the transmission lines are blocked for the duration of the query, and this method is uneconomical. It is also known to query only a subsection of the substations in order to obtain a statement about the presence of spontaneous messages
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht deshalb darin, alle Untstationen kurzfristig und sicher abzufragen, ob und wo sptane Informationen vorhanden sind. Es soll also nach einem allgemeinen Aufruf an alle UnterStationen, und Feststellu vorhandener spontaner Informationen, eine gezielte Abfrage mit hoher Priorität erfolgen.The object of the invention is therefore to promptly and reliably query all substations whether and where there is sptane information. After a general call to all sub-stations and the determination of spontaneous information, there should be a specific query with high priority.
Erfindungsgemäss wird dies dadurch erreicht, dass nach dem Aufruf der Zentrale bei allen Unterstationen der Reihe nach der Sendepegel kurzfristig ein- und ausgeschaltet wird und nur die Unterstationen mit spontanen Daten auf diesen Aufruf nicht reagieren. Die Zentrale wertet die durch das kurzfristige Ein- und Ausschalten des Sendepegels entstandenen Einschwingimpulse aus und fragt die UnterStationen mit den spontanen Daten gezielt ab.This is achieved according to the invention in that after the central station has been called up, the transmission level is briefly switched on and off in succession for all the substations and only the substations with spontaneous data do not respond to this call. The control center evaluates the transient impulses resulting from the short-term switching on and off of the transmission level and specifically queries the sub-stations with the spontaneous data.
Vorteilhaft bei dem erfindungsgemässen Verfahren ist die schnelle Erkennung einer spontanen Information. Durch die Verwendung von Impulsen anstelle von Telegrammen bei der Uebertragung konnte, eine wesentliche Vereinfachung erzielt werden, denn das bisherige Bit-Muster der Telegramme wird umgewandelt in einen Impuls, der in einem Diskriminator in der Zentrale ausgewertet wird. Es wird also in vorteilhafter Weise anstelle einer Telegrammübertragung ein kurzfristiges An- und Ausschalten des Senders der Unterstation vorgenommen.The rapid recognition of spontaneous information is advantageous in the method according to the invention. By using pulses instead of telegrams during the transmission, a substantial simplification could be achieved, because the previous bit pattern of the telegrams is converted into a pulse, which is evaluated in a discriminator in the central office. Instead of a telegram transmission, the transmitter of the substation is briefly switched on and off in an advantageous manner.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens wird nachstehend anhand der Figuren la und lb näher erläutert. Gemäss Fig. la wird von einer nicht gezeigten Zentrale eine Generalabfrage mit einem Aufruf-Telegramm A über einen Steuerkanal S an nur symbolisch angedeutete Unterstationen US1, US2, USJ, US4.bis USn vorgenommen. Wenn keine spontane Information in der ersten Unterstation US1 vorhanden ist, reagiert der nicht dargestellte Sender dieser Unterstation mit einem kurzen Anschwingen, bis der Sendepegel erreicht ist, und schaltet dann wieder ab. Auch in der nächsten Unterstation US 2 ist keine spontane Information vorhanden, so dass auch der nicht dargestellte Sender dieser Unterstation kurz anschwingt. Erst bei der Unterstation US3 ist eine spontane Information Inf vorhanden. Der Sender dieser Unterstation schwingt nicht an, sondern bleibt in Ruhestellung Bei der Unterstation US4 ist wieder keine spontane Information vorhanden, so dass dieser Sender anschwingt.An exemplary embodiment of the method according to the invention is explained in more detail below with reference to FIGS. 1a and 1b. According to FIG. 1 a, a control unit (not shown) carries out a general query with a request telegram A via a control channel S to substations US1, US2, USJ, US4.bis to USn which are only symbolically indicated. If there is no spontaneous information in the first substation US1, the transmitter (not shown) of this substation reacts with a short oscillation until the transmission level is reached and then switches off again. No spontaneous information is available in the next substation US 2 either, so that the transmitter (not shown) of this substation swings up briefly. Spontaneous information Inf is only available at substation US3. The transmitter of this substation does not vibrate, but remains in the idle position. At the substation US4 there is again no spontaneous information, so that this transmitter oscillates.
Auf den Ueberwachungskanal an die Zentrale geht also eine Folge von Impulsen, die eine Aussage darstellen über das Vorhandensein oder -Tichtvorhandensein spontaner Informationen in den Unterstationen. Es gehen also nicht, wie bei den bekannten Verfahren, Telegramme von jeder Unterstation zu rück zur Zentrale, sondern nur kurze Impulse , entsprechen der Anschwingzeit des Senders in der Unterstation. In einem nicht dargestellten Empfänger der Zentrale werden diese Impulse in einem nicht dargestellten Diskriminator in digitale Impulse gemäss Fig. lb umgesetzt, so dass im Sender eine eindeutige Erkennung über die spontanen Informationen besteht. L-Impulse bedeuten gemäss der Zeichnung keine spontanen Informationen und 0-Impulse zeigen spontane Informationen an. In einer gezielten Abfrage an die Unterstationen mit den spontanen Informationen kann jetzt der Inhalt dieser spontanen Informationen abgefragt werden.A sequence of impulses, which represent a statement about the presence or absence of spontaneous information in the substations, therefore goes to the monitoring channel to the control center. So, as with the known methods, telegrams do not go from each substation back to the control center, but only short pulses correspond to the response time of the transmitter in the substation. In a receiver, not shown, of the control center, these pulses are converted into digital pulses according to FIG. 1b in a discriminator, not shown, so that there is a clear recognition of the spontaneous information in the transmitter. According to the drawing, L-pulses mean no spontaneous information and 0-pulses indicate spontaneous information. The content of this spontaneous information can now be queried in a targeted query to the substations with the spontaneous information.
Durch die Reduzierung der Telegrammübertragung nur auf Einschwingzeiten des betreffenden Senders konnte eine erhebliche Zeitersparnis erzielt werden. Denn die Zeitdauer eines bisherigen Telegrammes beträgt 250 ms, während das erfindungs gemässe Anschwingen nur noch ca. 30 ms ausmacht. Das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren gestattet sogar in vorteilhafter Weise eine Erkennung ausgefallener Unterstationen. Da diese UnterStationen bei der Abfrage nicht mehr antworten, registriert die Zentrale entweder spontane Informationen oder Störung. Eine erneute gezielte Abfrage bestätigt dann den Störungsfall. By reducing the telegram transmission only to settling times of the transmitter concerned, considerable time savings could be achieved. Because the duration of a previous telegram is 250 ms, while the oscillation according to the invention is only about 30 ms. The method according to the invention even advantageously allows the detection of failed substations. Since these substations no longer respond when queried, the control center either registers spontaneous information or a fault. Another targeted query then confirms the fault.
