Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Einrichtung zur Befehlsgabe für programmierbare Gebäudesystemtechnik, im einzelnen nach Gattungsbegriff von Patentanspruch 1. Eine entsprechende Bedienanordnung ist bekannt (DE-A-3 530 971). Im Bedienfeld der Einrichtung sind mehrere Handbedienungsorgane angeordnet, wobei ein Handbedienungsorgan gegen die anderen hervorgehoben und einer Arbeitsfunktion zugeordnet ist, wobei die anderen Handbedienungsorgane einer Auswahlfunktion zugeordnet sind. Bei der bekannten Einrichtung werden über die nicht hervorgehobenen Handbedienungsorgane die verschiedenartigsten Betriebszustände hergestellt und über das hervorgehobene Bedienelement kann eine Rückstellung in den Grundzustand des gesamten Gerätes erfolgen.The invention relates to a device for issuing commands for programmable building system technology, specifically according to the preamble of claim 1. A corresponding control arrangement is known (DE-A-3 530 971). A plurality of manual control elements are arranged in the control panel of the device, one manual control element being emphasized against the others and being assigned to a work function, the other manual control elements being assigned to a selection function. In the known device, a wide variety of operating states are produced via the manual operating elements which are not highlighted, and a reset to the basic state of the entire device can take place via the highlighted operating element.

Es ist auch bekannt, daß die Antwort des Benutzers auf eine logische Fragestellung durch Auswahl und anschließende Betätigung von einer aus einer vorgegebenen Anzahl von Handbedienungsorganen erfolgt (EP-A-0 120 345). Hierbei ist es auch bekannt, Fragen oder Informationen auf Display anzuzeigen. Die Bedienung derartiger Einrichtungen setzt jedoch überlegtes Handeln und gute Sichtverhältnisse voraus.It is also known that the user answers a logical question by selecting and then operating one of a predetermined number of manual controls (EP-A-0 120 345). It is also known to display questions or information on the display. The operation of such facilities, however, requires deliberate action and good visibility.

In Anwendungsbereichen, die mehr der Installationstechnik zuzurechnen sind, insbesondere in der Gebäudesystemtechnik, wird leichte Bedienbarkeit gefordert. Eine andere Forderung geht dahin, von möglichst wenigen Bedienungsorganen aus möglichst viele Geräte bzw. Verbraucherstellen zu schalten bzw. zu steuern. Bekannte Vorschläge sehen hierfür Bus-Systeme und digitale Informationsübertragung vor. Es ist auch bekannt, hierfür im Durchlaufverfahren aus Suchbegriffen von wenigen Handbedienungsorganen aus vielfältige Verbraucher anzusteuern (EP-A-0 246 472).Ease of use is required in application areas that are more attributable to installation technology, particularly in building system technology. Another requirement is to switch or control as many devices or consumer points as possible from as few operating elements as possible. Known proposals provide bus systems and digital information transmission for this. It is also known to control a wide range of consumers for this in a continuous process using search terms from a few manual controls (EP-A-0 246 472).

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Einrichtung zur Befehlsgabe für programmierbare Gebäudesystemtechnik zu entwickeln, die sich an den Verbrauchergewohnheiten der klassischen Installationstechnik orientiert und dennoch von relativ wenigen Handbedienungsorganen aus gut bedienbar viele Geräte bzw. Verbraucherstellen und Informationsverarbeitungsstellen zu schalten bzw. anzusteuern gestattet.The invention has for its object to develop a device for commanding programmable building system technology, which is based on the consumer habits of classic installation technology and yet allows to operate or control many devices or consumer units and information processing units from a relatively small number of manual controls.

Die Lösung der geschilderten Aufgabe erfolgt durch eine Einrichtung nach Patentanspruch 1. Durch die nicht hervorgehobenen Handbedienungsorgane kann die dem hervorgehobenen Handbedienungsorgan zugeordnete Arbeitsfunktion mit einer Auswahl vorbelegt werden. Durch das hervorgehobene Handbedienungsorgan können verschiedene, im voraus ausgewählte Betriebsfunktionen geschaltet werden. Danach sind in einem Bedienfeld mehrere Handbedienungsorgane angeordnet, wie Taster oder Schalter, wie sie im Prinzip aus der Installtionstechnik geläufig sind. Hinzu kommen können Anzeigenfelder. Wesentlich ist dabei, daß ein Handbedienungsorgan gegen die anderen hervorgehoben ist, sei es durch Größe, optische Führung oder dergleichen, und daß dieses einer Arbeitsfunktion, z.B. "Schalten", zugeordnet ist. Die anderen Handbedienungsorgane sind jeweils einer Auswahlfunktion, z.B. für ein Objekt oder eine Objektgruppe, zugeordnet. Dadurch kann die Arbeitsfunktion, die dem Handbedienungsorgan zugeordnet ist, mit einer Auswahl vorbelegt werden.The described task is solved by a device according to claim 1. The manual control elements which are not highlighted can be used to pre-assign a selection to the work function assigned to the highlighted manual control element. Different, pre-selected operating functions can be switched by the highlighted manual control element. Thereafter, several manual controls are arranged in a control panel, such as buttons or switches, as are known in principle from installation technology. There may also be ad fields. It is essential that one manual control element is highlighted against the other, be it by size, optical guidance or the like, and that this is a work function, e.g. "Switch" is assigned. The other manual controls are each a selection function, e.g. for an object or an object group. As a result, the work function that is assigned to the manual control element can be preset with a selection.

Bei einer derartigen Einrichtung bietet sich das hervorgehobene Handbedienungsorgan für die rasche Bedienung, beispielsweise auch im Dunklen, an. In Ruhe oder bei Licht können dann von dem einen hervorgehobenen Handbedienungsorgan aus durch die weiteren Handbedienungsorgane Auswahlfunktionen ausgeübt werden, die das hervorgehobene Handbedienungsorgan in seiner Arbeitsfunktion vorbelegen. Dadurch kann beispielsweise zunächst vom hervorgehobenen Handbedienungsorgan aus in einem Raum von einem verhältnismäßig kleinen Bedienfeld aus über das hervorgehobene Handbedienungsorgan Licht eingeschaltet werden und bei Licht, oder in anderen Fällen in Ruhe, können dann Auswahlfunktionen über die weiteren Handbedienungsorgane ausgewählt werden. Hierfür steht die weite Palette der bekannten Möglichkeiten im Grundsatz zur Verfügung. Wenn das vorbelegte Handbedienungsorgan, beispielsweise ein Taster, der über Zusatzelektronik codierte Signale abgibt, erneut betätigt wird, können dann Befehlssignale entsprechend dem betätigten weiteren Handbedienungsorgan und der ihm zugeordneten Auswahlfunktion abgegeben werden. So kann beispielsweise von diesem Schalter aus ein bestimmtes Gerät abgeschaltet oder gesteuert werden.With such a device, the highlighted manual control element is suitable for quick operation, for example even in the dark. At rest or in light, selection functions can then be carried out from the one hand-held control element by the other hand-operated control elements, which pre-assign the highlighted hand control element in its work function. As a result, for example, light can first be switched on from the highlighted manual control element in a room from a relatively small control panel via the highlighted manual control element and can be switched on when the light is on or in other cases at rest then selection functions can be selected via the other manual controls. In principle, the wide range of known options is available for this. If the pre-assigned manual control element, for example a button that outputs signals coded via additional electronics, is actuated again, command signals can then be sent in accordance with the actuated further manual control element and the selection function assigned to it. For example, a specific device can be switched off or controlled from this switch.

Im einfachsten Fall ist das hervorgehobene Handbedienungsorgan großflächig ausgebildet, so daß die anderen Handbedienungsorgane seitlich neben dem hervorgehobenen Handbedienungsorgan in einem Bedienfeld angeordnet werden können.In the simplest case, the highlighted manual control element is formed over a large area, so that the other manual control elements can be arranged laterally next to the highlighted manual control element in a control panel.

Das mit einer Auswahlfunktion vorbelegte hervorgehobene Handbedienungsorgan ist vorteilhafterweise so ausgeführt, daß es nach einer vorgegebenen oder nach einer einstellbaren Zeitspanne selbsttätig zurückgesetzt wird. Dadurch wird erreicht, daß die Bedienung der Grundfunktion vom hervorgehobenen Handbedienungsorgan aus sichergestellt ist.The highlighted manual control element pre-assigned with a selection function is advantageously designed such that it is automatically reset after a predetermined or after an adjustable period of time. This ensures that the operation of the basic function is ensured from the highlighted manual control element.

Das hervorgehobene Handbedienungsorgan kann auch als Sensorfläche ausgeführt sein.The highlighted manual control element can also be designed as a sensor surface.

Die Erfindung soll nun anhand von in der Zeichnung grob schematisch wiedergegebenen Ausführungsbeispielen näher erläutert werden:The invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to exemplary embodiments shown roughly schematically in the drawing:

In FIG 1 ist eine Einrichtung zur Befehlsgabe perspektivisch wiedergegeben.In Figure 1, a device for command is shown in perspective.

In FIG 2 ist in Aufsicht eine anders gestaltete Einrichtung veranschaulicht.In Figure 2, a differently designed device is illustrated in supervision.

Die Einrichtung zur Befehlsgabe nach FIG 1 hat ein gegliedertes Bedienfeld, die Vorderseite, in dem mehrere Handbedienungsorgane angeordnet sind. Neben dem hervorgehobenen Handbedienungsorgan 1 sind seitlich weitere Handbedienungsorgane 2 bis 9 angeordnet. Im Ausführungsbeispiel ist das hervorgehobene Handbedienungsorgan durch seine Größe und Platzierung hervorgehoben. Es kann als Taster ausgeführt sein, der mittels eines elektronischen Bauteiles codierte Signale einer Arbeitsfunktion abgibt. Die anderen Handbedienungsorgane sind zum Teil in einer oberen Leiste, die Handbedienungsorgane 2 bis 5, und zum Teil in einer unteren Leiste, die Handbedienungsorgane 6 bis 9, angeordnet. Diese können jeweils einer Auswahlfunktion, z. B. für ein Objekt oder einer Objektgruppe, zugeordnet sein.The device for giving commands according to FIG 1 has a structured control panel, the front, in which several manual controls are arranged. In addition to the highlighted manual control element 1, further manual control elements 2 to 9 are arranged on the side. In the exemplary embodiment, the highlighted manual control element is highlighted by its size and placement. It can be designed as a pushbutton which outputs signals of a work function by means of an electronic component. The other manual controls are partly arranged in an upper bar, the manual controls 2 to 5, and partly in a lower bar, the manual controls 6 to 9. These can each have a selection function, e.g. B. for an object or an object group.

Nach einer Ausgestaltung dienen die weiteren bzw. anderen Handbedienungsorgane 2 bis 5 als Taster zum Einschalten bestimmter Verbraucherfelder und die unten angeordneten anderen bzw. weiteren Handbedienungsorgane zum Ausschalten der jeweiligen Verbraucherfelder, die in den darüber angeordneten Handbedienungsorganen einzuschalten sind. Im einzelnen können die anderen Handbedienungsorgane 2 bis 9 als Taster ausgeführt sein, die im Zusammenspiel die Funktion herkömmlicher Schalter erfüllen. Wesentlich ist jedoch, daß durch das wiederholbare und getrennte Ein- und Ausschalten auch außer Tritt gefallene einzelne Verbraucher in einem Verbraucherfeld wieder in einen synchronen Betriebszustand überführt werden können. Dies ist beispielsweise wesentlich bei Beleuchtungsanlagen, die in einzelne Lichtbänder und Lichtfelder gegliedert sind. Bekanntlich ist es bei herkömmlichen Stoßstromschaltern unvermeidlich, daß einzelne Verbraucherobjekte zu denen ihres Umfeldes außer Tritt fallen.According to one embodiment, the further or other manual control elements 2 to 5 serve as buttons for switching on certain consumer fields and the other or further manual control elements arranged below for switching off the respective consumer fields which are to be switched on in the manual control elements arranged above. In particular, the other manual controls 2 to 9 can be designed as buttons which, when used together, perform the function of conventional switches. It is essential, however, that the repeatable and separate switching on and off also enables individual consumers who have fallen out of step to be brought back into a synchronous operating state in a consumer field. This is important, for example, for lighting systems that are divided into individual light strips and light fields. As is known, it is inevitable with conventional surge current switches that individual consumer objects fall out of step with those in their environment.

Vezständlicherweise können über die anderen Handbedienungsorgane 2 bis 9 auch völlig verschiedenartige Betriebsfunktionen geschaltet bzw. aktiviert werden. Darüber hinaus kann man anstelle einzelner anderer Handbedienungsorgane Gehäuseteile in Einschubtechnik vorsehen, um bestimmte Vorrichtungen oder auch gesonderte Teile extern zugänglich zu halten. Teilfelder des Bedienfeldes können auch von der Funktion her als Fenster, hier Lichtfenster genannt, ausgeführt sein, um beispielsweise Infrarotlicht von der Einrichtung aus zu senden oder in der Einrichtung zu empfangen. In Teilfeldern des Bedienfeldes können auch übliche Displays angeordnet werden.Understandably, completely different operating functions can also be switched or activated via the other manual controls 2 to 9. In addition, instead of individual other manual controls, housing parts can be provided in withdrawable technology in order to keep certain devices or also separate parts externally accessible. Subfields of the control panel can also be designed to function as windows, here called light windows for example, to send or receive infrared light from the device. Conventional displays can also be arranged in subfields of the control panel.

Bei auf dem Markt befindlichen integrierten Schaltkreisen ist für die Auswahlfunktionen ein Viererraster, die vier anderen Handbedienungsorgane 2 bis 5 in der oberen Leiste und die vier anderen Handbedienungsorgane 6 bis 9 in der unteren Leiste nach FIG 1, besonders vorteilhaft.In the case of integrated circuits on the market, a four grid, the four other manual controls 2 to 5 in the upper bar and the four other manual controls 6 to 9 in the lower bar according to FIG. 1 are particularly advantageous for the selection functions.

Im Ausführungsbeispiel nach FIG 1 kann das hervorgehobene Handbedienungsorgan 1 auch als Sensorfläche ausgeführt verstanden werden.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1, the highlighted manual control element 1 can also be understood as a sensor surface.

Im Ausführungsbeispiel nach FIG 2 ist das hervorgehobene Handbedienungsorgan 1 in einem rechteckigen Bedienfeld oben großflächig ausgeführt und die anderen Handbedienungsorgane 2 bis 9 sind in zwei Reihen unter dem hervorgehobenen Handbedienungsorgan 1 verhältnismäßig kleinflächig ausgeführt angeordnet. Das gesamte Bedienfeld kann auch in etwa quadratisch ausgeführt sein. Das Ausführungsbeispiel nach FIG 2 kann auch so verstanden werden, daß anstelle einzelner anderer Handbedienungsorgane 2 bis 9 in deren Feld jeweils ein Lichtfenster oder ein Display angeordnet ist.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 2, the highlighted manual control element 1 is designed with a large surface area at the top in a rectangular control panel, and the other manual control elements 2 to 9 are arranged in two rows under the highlighted manual control element 1 with a relatively small surface area. The entire control panel can also be made approximately square. The exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 2 can also be understood in such a way that a light window or a display is arranged in the field instead of individual other manual control elements 2 to 9.
