Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for installing peripheral devices Locations with a connection to a central unit, at which the location of the respective Device is determined and stored.
  • a central unit such as a controller
  • Devices and central units in this Senses are, for example, fire detectors and a fire control panel or temperature sensors and the control of an air conditioner and the like.
  • peripheral devices connected to a central unit and it is important which device where, for example in which room, is installed.
  • the connection between the devices The individual locations and the central unit are usually formed by a bus.
  • each device is individually connected to the control center before installation and exchange an individual identifier with it.
  • the location is determined on which the device is to be installed later. This procedure has the disadvantage of being dangerous of confusion is relatively large.
  • each device picks up at the time it is installed is connected to the central unit via the bus and the installer gives the central unit via the same bus connection or via an additional connection, for example a radio link, the location of the installed device is known. If the bus is for transmission the location is used, in most cases there is an additional effort Device required to enter location information. If an additional connection used, it must be ensured that they are always safe is available, but in many cases, such as large and / or massive armored buildings is not easily possible. Apart from that, there is a risk that the installer is wrong and enters an incorrect location.
  • the installer notes the order in which the devices are installed were and noted them.
  • the control center prepares a chronological list of the installed ones Devices in which only the locations have to be entered.
  • Risk of confusion furthermore requires the notation and entry of locations into a time list and is therefore expensive.
  • the invention is now intended to provide a method of the type mentioned at the outset, which eliminates confusion and offers a high level of user comfort.
  • the solution according to the invention of the issue presented is characterized in that at the position of the installer together with the associated time information registered and in the central unit the time of installation of the peripheral device is stored, and that the two time information are linked and the location of the peripheral device at the time of installation is obtained therefrom.
  • a first preferred development of the method according to the invention is characterized in that that when the peripheral devices are installed in a building, a link between the mentioned time information with the plans of the building.
  • This preferred embodiment has the advantage that it can be determined in which room of the building a particular device is located with a known position.
  • the building plans assigned parameters to the devices at certain locations.
  • This Parameters can include housing parameters, such as the height and / or the volume of the concerned room, or also device parameters, such as threshold values, message texts for alarms or time constants.
  • the invention further relates to a device for performing the aforementioned method.
  • the inventive device is characterized by a mobile station, which with means for determining the respective position of the station and with means for registration this position is equipped in function of time, and by means for timely reporting the installation of a peripheral device to the central unit and by means for the Linking the installation time with the position of the station at this time.
  • a first preferred embodiment of the device according to the invention is characterized in that that based on the link mentioned the individual installed devices Locations and, if necessary, further data and / or parameters can be assigned. Preferably is based on all data and / or parameters assigned to the devices Database created.
  • the mobile station is preferably designed in the form of a small car.
  • Such a small trolley is particularly practical because it can also be used to transport a supply the devices to be installed, tools and consumables and small materials can be.
  • the means for determining the position of the station contain, for example, a compass (magnetic compass or gyro compass), acceleration sensors for linear movement and rotation, inclinometer, rotation sensors on the wheels, Doppler radar, Ultrasound or laser rangefinder to the building walls, means for distance measurement at fixed points, for example over the duration of radio or ultrasonic waves, GPS (Global Positioning System) based on transmitters in satellites or on those provided in the building Transmitters, video camera, which is directed to the floor or possibly to the ceiling and a relative movement due to the almost inevitable surface structures can recognize.
  • a compass magnetic compass or gyro compass
  • acceleration sensors for linear movement and rotation inclinometer
  • rotation sensors on the wheels Doppler radar
  • Ultrasound or laser rangefinder to the building walls
  • means for distance measurement at fixed points for example over the duration of radio or ultrasonic waves
  • GPS Global Positioning System
  • a room for installing a smoke detector 2 is provided in a room 1, for example by a base connected to a central station 4 via a bus 3 or a other suitable connection point is formed. Since it must be guaranteed that in the headquarters 4 a detector indicating an alarm or a fault can be clearly located it is necessary that the control center knows which detectors are installed where.
  • the detectors 2 are equipped for this purpose with an identification module (not shown), which contains a unique address intended only for the relevant detector. This Address 4 is communicated to control center 4 when installing detector 2 in question, but not the place of installation.
  • the installer installing the detectors 2 is with a mobile station 5 of the type a small car (see Fig. 2) equipped, which he pulls with him and the is therefore in the same place as the installer.
  • the station 5 can also be designed to be portable, for example in the Kind of a backpack, but it has been shown that a car has a number of advantages, among other things, that it is used to transport a supply of detectors 2 and tools as well as small and consumable materials.
  • the station 5 is equipped with a clock 6 or generally a timer and with a device 7 for determining the respective position of the station 5 in an environment, for example in a building, and with means 8 for storing the position of the Station in function of time.
  • the station 5 thus contains exact information at what time the station was where And since station 5 is always at the installation site it also contains information about when the installer and the detectors are where has found.
  • station 5 Because there may be situations where station 5 does not collect the required data can, for example, because of the installer because of any obstacles or structural If the station cannot be carried to the installation site, station 5 is included Means 10 for entering or recording information, such as text input, a voice input or a video camera.
  • the Fire detector 2 symbolizes some kind of peripheral device which is connected via a bus a central office is connected.
  • a device can also be a sensor of, for example Building control system, such as a temperature sensor of an air conditioning or heating.
  • the additional data mentioned above could be, for example, thermal time constants contain an influence on the control characteristics of a temperature controller to have.
  • the wheel diameter is crucial the measurement result is falsified if the diameter of the two or four wheels of the Station 5 are not the same.
  • the measurement result looks as if station 5 would never have been moved over a straight line, but often curves with the same radius would have driven.
  • the measurement data can be processed automatically with constant factors that the result is as plausible as possible.
  • the station 5 which is designed as a car, moves in one of its height and angle depending on certain habits, it is advantageous, wheel sensors with an inclinometer and possibly other sensors, such as a compass. If the slope is significantly from normal deviates, it can be assumed that the carriage 5 is not pulled normally, but for example lifted off the floor, or carried or pulled up a flight of stairs. In this In this case, the post-processing program will not rely on the wheel sensors, but rather take into account the other sensors.
  • a magnetic compass can be impaired by large iron parts, but it cannot be assumed that the rejection is constant throughout the building. Practical tests have shown that, for example, a magnetic compass with a straight line Driving through a certain gear regularly deviations from the right one Direction that was obviously caused by steel door frames. By analyzing the data, at least one statement can be made as to which maximum A magnetic compass is expected to fail. Through the use of procedures In this case, for pattern recognition, it should even be possible to use the one actually driven Direction to reconstruct with some certainty.
