The interlock control condition transmitted to the communication unit E4-k is set in the interlock control table 4-h and the schedule operation table 4-l of the interlock control device 4 by the table setting unit 4-m.

Here, the latest state value table 4-e1 and the state value table 4-e2 are tables for storing a state corresponding to each device, and are configured by an array of the same device numbers.
The latest state value table 4-e1 and the state value table 4-e2 are shown in FIGS.
If the device number is fixed, the latest state value table 4-e1 and the state value table 4-e2 store only the state of each device as shown in FIGS. 7A and 7B, respectively. Alternatively, if the device number is not fixed, the number and state of each device may be stored in association with each other as shown in FIG. 8 (a) and FIG. 8 (b), respectively.

The data stored in the latest status value table 4-e1 is the latest status just collected from each device, and the status value table 4-e2 stores the status up to the previous time.
Numerical data indicating the state of the device converted by the communication conversion unit 4-d is stored in the latest state value table 4-e1.
When data is stored in the latest state value table 4-e1, the control program execution unit 4-g compares the data in the latest state value table 4-e1 with the data in the state value table 4-e2.
When the control program execution unit 4-g detects that the data in the state value storage unit 4-E has changed, the interlocking control device 4 checks the table of the interlocking control table 4-h and matches the interlocking control conditions. In addition, the interlocking operation set in the interlocking control table 4-h is transmitted to the operation command unit 4-f, converted into the communication protocol of the corresponding device by the communication conversion unit 4-d, and the communication units A to D are used. Send an operation command.
Thereafter, the data contents of the latest state value table 4-e1 are rewritten to the state value table 4-e2.

Is transmitted to the operation command unit 4-f, converted into the communication protocol of the corresponding device by the communication conversion unit 4-d, and operated using the communication units A to D. Send a command.

  Here, when the control program 4-n stored in the control program storage unit 4-N is read and executed by the CPU 911, the control program execution unit 4-g performs each process.

  For example, a card reader in a building is installed as an alarm device / general-purpose device 1, and an air conditioner (air conditioning area 1) in an area is operated by changing the contact signal of the card reader from OFF to ON (OFF → ON). (ON), when you want to stop (OFF) with a change from ON to OFF (ON → OFF), and with a change from stop to operation of an air conditioner (air conditioning area 2) in a certain area (OFF → ON), When the blower (general-purpose device 2) is turned on and the blower is turned off by a change from operation to stop (ON → OFF), and the operation SW (switch) (general-purpose device 3) operates the air conditioning area 4 by a pulse signal ( ON) and stop SW (general-purpose equipment 4) If you want to stop (stop) with a pulse signal, input the operation details shown in FIG. Te, set the interlocking control table 4-h.

As an alarm device / general-purpose device 1, an ON signal from a card reader is output from the status signal output unit 1-a, received by the communication unit A4-a via the communication line 8, and converted by the communication conversion unit 4-d, The state of the general-purpose device 1 in the state value storage unit 4-E is changed from OFF to ON and managed.
When the control program execution unit 4-g detects the change of the state value storage unit 4-E from OFF to ON, the operation content corresponding to the change of the general-purpose device 1 is retrieved from the interlock control table 4-h and interlocked. A command for operating the air conditioner 7 belonging to the air conditioning area 1 set in the control table 4-h is transmitted to the operation command unit 4-f, converted into a communication protocol by the communication conversion unit 4-d, and communicated. An operation command is transmitted by the part D4-i.
Next, the OFF signal from the card reader is received as the status signal output unit 1-a by the communication line 8 by the communication unit A4-a, converted by the communication conversion unit 4-d, and the general-purpose device of the status value storage unit 4-E. The state of 1 changes from ON to OFF and is managed.
When the control program execution unit 4-g detects the change of the state value storage unit 4-E from ON to OFF, the operation content corresponding to the change of the general-purpose device 1 is searched from the interlock control table 4-h, and the interlock is performed. A command to stop the air conditioners 7 belonging to the air conditioning area 1 set in the control table 4-h is transmitted to the operation command unit 4-f, converted into a communication protocol by the communication conversion unit 4-d, and communicated. A stop command is transmitted by the part D4-i.

As described above, interlocking control can be performed by setting the interlocking destination operation contents such as operation and stop to the air conditioning area according to the interlocking source operation condition of OFF → ON or ON → OFF of general-purpose equipment in the interlocking control table. There is no need to develop a new program.
Further, since the state of the card reader is preliminarily assigned to the state value storage unit 4-E of the interlock control device 4, which is the state of the general-purpose device 1, any general-purpose device can be used as the interlock source device.
In addition, the setting contents can be freely changed locally by using the dedicated control condition input tool 6, so that it is possible to cope with detailed specification changes at the site.
