【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明はビルに設置された昇降機等の設備機器の動作状態を監視し、遠隔地に設けられた監視センタに通信回線を介して監視情報を通報する監視端末に対し、監視センタで検出した広域災害情報を送信することで広域災害時の発報受信件数を制御する方法に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来の遠隔監視装置として、ビル設備の遠隔監視装置、集中管理システムがあった(例えば、特許文献1、2参照。)。
【0003】
従来の遠隔監視装置について以下説明する。ビルに設置している設備機器に異常が発生すると、同じビルに設置されている従監視端末がこの異常を検知し、近接するビルに設置されている主監視装置に無線により異常状態を通知し、主監視装置より異常データを監視センタに発報する。監視センタではこの異常発報を受信すると、対応者へ報知するために表示し来歴として保持する。
【0004】
また、監視センタでは、広範囲の地域で停電等による監視端末からの一斉異常発報受信を抑止するため、広範囲の地域で同一内容の異常が発生した場合に、監視センタより監視端末へ異常発報の抑止指令を送信することで、異常発報受信用の公衆回線が長時間塞がれることを防止している。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところで、上述した従来の遠隔監視装置では、広範囲の地域に対して抑止指令を送信してしまうため、停電等が発生していない地域に対しても抑止指令を送信してしまう。
【0008】
さらに、異常内容に関らずに抑止指令を送信してしまうため、即時対応が必要な故障が発生した場合にも、抑止指令により対応遅れ、対応漏れが発生する懸念があった。
【0009】
本発明はこのような従来技術における実情に鑑みてなされたもので、その目的は、停電等が発生している地域を特定し、特定した地域に対してのみ抑止指令を送信すると共に、異常内容を選択して抑止指令を送信することで、即時対応が必要な発報を優先的に受信できる遠隔監視装置を提供することにある。
【0010】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は上記課題を解決するために、ビルに設置された昇降機等の設備機器の動作状態を監視する監視端末を、遠隔地に設けられた監視センタと通信回線を介して接続し、かつ、監視センタで集中発報を検出した場合、地域を特定することで、無線通信が不可能なエリアである場合は無線中継局を経由し、無線通信が不可能なエリアである場合は通信回線を経由して集中発報の抑止を行うことで、集中発報発生地域以外の発報受信を遅延なく受信するようにした。
【0011】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、図面を参照して本発明の実施形態を説明する。
【0012】
図1は本発明に係る遠隔監視システムの構成図、図2は本発明に係る発報抑止処理を表すフローチャートである。
【0013】
図1において、1、2、3、4、5は顧客ビルで、このビル1、2、3、45には多数の設備機器(図示せず)が設置されている。11、21、31、41、51は設備監視を行うビル1、2、3、4、5に設置され、後述する監視センタと通信回線を介して選択的に接続される監視端末、12、22、23、24、25は通信回線を使用して監視設備の異常状態を監視センタへ送信する有線通信部、13、23、33、43、53は後述する無線通信局との通信を行う無線通信部、6は通信回線、7はビル1、2、3、4、5の昇降機、設備機器等の動作状況を確認し、対応者へ出動指示を行う監視センタ、71は制御部(CPU)、72はディスク、73はメモリ、74は監視端末11、21、31、41、51と通信回線を介して接続され、発報情報を受信するデータ受信部、75は監視端末11、21、31、41、51と通信回線を介して接続され、監視端末11、21、31、41、51へ情報を送信するデータ送信部、76は表示部、77は監視端末11、21、31、41、51が設置されている地域を特定する地域特定部、78は監視端末11、21、31、41、51からの発報設備を特定する設備特定部、8は監視センタ7と通信回線6を介して接続され、監視センタ7からの指令により発報抑止信号を送信する無線中継局、Aは無線中継局8からの電波を受信することのできる無線通信エリア、Bは無線中継局8からの電波を受信することのできない有線通信エリアである。
【0014】
監視端末11、21、31、41、51は顧客ビル1、2、3、4、5の監視設備に異常が発生した場合、有線通信部12、22、32、42、52より通信回線6を介して監視センタ7に異常内容を発報する。通信回線6を介してデータ受信部74で受信した異常内容はCPU71へ送信され、ディスク72、メモリ73を使用して故障情報の解析を行い、表示部76へ解析結果を送信し故障情報の表示を行うと共に、地域特定部77により異常発生地域の特定、及び設備特定部78により故障内容の蓄積を行い、特定地域で停電などによる同一種別の故障発報が発生する、いわゆる集中発報の検出判断を行う。
【0015】
監視センタ7から監視端末11、21、31、41、51に、例えば、発報抑止情報を送信する場合は、データ送信部75、通信回線6を介して監視端末11、21、31、41、51に発報抑止情報を送信する。また、無線通信エリアの監視端末11、21、31に、例えば、発報抑止情報を送信する場合は、データ送信部75、通信回線6を介して無線中継局8に発報抑止情報を送信し、無線中継局8より無線エリアの監視端末11、21、31に発報抑止情報を無線通信部13、23、33を介して送信する。
【0016】
前記構成において、監視端末11、21、31、41、51が設置されている地域で、例えば停電による同一故障が発生した場合、監視端末11、21、31、41、51より通信回線6を介して監視センタ7に異常内容が送信され、データ受信部74で発報受信が行われる(手順S1)。受信した発報情報は、CPU71へ送信され、故障情報の解析を行うと共に、地域特定部77、設備特定部78により集中発報地域の特定、及び集中発報対象設備機器の特定が行われる。この際、CPU71では集中発報が発生しているかを判定し(手順S2)、集中発報が発生していない場合は、表示部76へ解析結果を送信し故障情報の表示を行う(手順S8)。集中発報が発生している場合は、地域特定部77が保有している地域情報を取得すると共に(手順S3)、設備特定部78が保有している設備情報を取得する(手順S4)。ここで取得した地域情報を元に、無線通信可能エリアかを判定し(手順S5)、無線通信が可能な地域である場合、データ送信部75より通信回線6を介して無線中継局8へ設備特定部78が特定した設備の発報抑止情報を送信する(手順S6)。無線中継局8では、受信した発報抑止情報を無線通信エリアAに設置されている監視端末11、21、31へ無線通信部13、23、33を介して発報抑止情報を送信し、監視端末11、21、31では受信した発報抑止情報に従い、受信した設備に関する発報を一定時間停止すると共に、それ以外の発報に関しては即時に通信回線6を介して監視センタ7へ送信を行う(手順S7)。無線通信が不可能な地域である場合、データ送信部75より通信回線6を介して、有線通信エリアBに予め設定されている代表監視端末41へ設備特定部78が特定した設備の発報抑止情報を送信する(手順S9)。監視端末41では、受信した発報抑止情報に従い、受信した設備に関する発報を一定時間停止し、それ以外の発報に関しては即時に通信回線6を介して監視センタ7へ送信を行うと共に、有線通信部42により予め設定されている有線エリアの他監視端末51へ通信回線6を介して発報抑止情報を転送する(手順S10)。監視端末51では、有線通信部52を介して受信した発報抑止情報に従い、受信した設備に関する発報を一定時間停止し、それ以外の発報に関しては即時に通信回線6を介して監視センタ7へ送信を行う(手順S11)。
【0017】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したように、監視センタで集中発報の検出を行った場合、地域の特定、及び集中発報対象設備の特定を行い、無線通信が可能なエリアである場合は無線中継局を経由し、無線通信が不可能なエリアである場合は通信回線を経由し、それぞれ集中発報の抑止を行える構成としたため、集中発報が発生した場合でも、集中発報発生地域以外の発報受信を遅延なく受信することが可能となる。
【0018】
さらに、集中発報発生設備を特定し、該当設備の発報のみを抑止することで、集中発報発生地域であっても、対応者の派遣が必要な発報に関しては即時に受信することが可能となる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a monitoring terminal that monitors the operation state of equipment such as an elevator installed in a building and notifies monitoring information via a communication line to a monitoring center provided at a remote location. The present invention relates to a method for controlling the number of alarms received during a wide-area disaster by transmitting disaster information.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventional remote monitoring devices include a remote monitoring device for building equipment and a centralized management system (for example, see Patent Documents 1 and 2).
[0003]
A conventional remote monitoring device will be described below. When an abnormality occurs in equipment installed in a building, a secondary monitoring terminal installed in the same building detects this abnormality and notifies the main monitoring device installed in an adjacent building of the abnormality by radio. Then, the main monitoring device issues abnormal data to the monitoring center. When the monitoring center receives this abnormality report, it displays it to notify the responder and holds it as a log.
[0004]
In addition, the monitoring center suppresses the simultaneous reception of abnormal alerts from monitoring terminals due to power outages etc. in a wide area, so if an error of the same content occurs in a wide area, the monitoring center issues an error to the monitoring terminal. By transmitting the deterrence command, the public line for receiving an abnormal alarm is prevented from being blocked for a long time.

[0006]
[Patent Document 2]
JP-A-2002-251687 (paragraph number 0027-0031, FIG. 1)
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
By the way, in the above-mentioned conventional remote monitoring apparatus, since the suppression command is transmitted to a wide area, the suppression command is also transmitted to an area where no power failure or the like has occurred.
[0008]
Further, since the suppression command is transmitted irrespective of the content of the abnormality, there is a concern that even if a failure requiring immediate response occurs, the suppression command causes a delay in response or omission of response.
[0009]
The present invention has been made in view of such a situation in the related art, and has as its object to specify an area where a power outage or the like has occurred, transmit a deterrence command only to the specified area, and provide an error description. The present invention provides a remote monitoring device that can receive, by priority, an alert that requires immediate response by selecting a request and transmitting a suppression command.
[0010]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention, in order to solve the above problems, a monitoring terminal that monitors the operation state of equipment such as elevators installed in a building, connected to a monitoring center provided in a remote location via a communication line, and, When a centralized alarm is detected at the monitoring center, the area is specified, and the area is specified. If the area is an area where wireless communication is not possible, it passes through a wireless relay station. By suppressing centralized alerting via the Internet, alerts received in areas other than the centralized alert occurrence area are received without delay.
