A data storage unit 43 is provided.

  The ticket gate processing control unit 42 of each automatic ticket gate 4-1, 4-2-4-n applies the application date (startup date) described in the individual application number / day list R 1, Rn sent from the monitoring panel 3. The program data PD is updated by replacing the old program data stored in the data storage unit 43 with the program data PD received this time from the monitoring board 3.

  Next, the operation of the automatic ticket gate system configured as described above and the program update method of the automatic ticket gate system will be described with reference to FIGS.

  First, the maintenance person follows the well-known ticket gate processing generation program 11a stored in the maintenance server 1 or the maintenance person himself / herself inputs data necessary for the ticket gate processing from the input unit 14 to obtain the program data PD. It is created and stored in the program storage unit 13a of the database 13.

(1) Transmission processing of program data PD by the maintenance server 1 (see FIGS. 5, 6, and 9).

  The data update processing unit 12 of the maintenance server 1 executes the machine list acquisition unit 12A according to the data update processing program 11b (see FIG. 6) stored in the main storage device 11.

  The machine list acquisition unit 12A determines whether or not there is an instruction to read the machine list instruction from the input unit 14 (S1). Normally, a railway company provides a number list instruction sheet describing the number and date of application of a plurality of stations via a recording medium such as an FD or USB memory or a network. At this time, the number list instruction is read from the railway company via the storage medium or network. Here, in the machine list instruction sheet, a plurality of station names such as “A”, “B”,..., And automatic ticket gates such as 4-1 “01”, 4-n “0n”, and applicable number Each application date (startup date) is described.

  Note that the program data PD is very important data for the ticket gate processing of the automatic ticket gate, and is greatly affected as described above when any trouble occurs. ,..., 4-n group, the two most automatic ticket gates 4-1 and 4-n are selected, and the program data PD is updated by changing the application date (startup date) to be updated respectively. To do.

  Therefore, the machine list acquisition means 12A reads the machine list instruction file and temporarily stores it in the applied car list storage unit 13c (S2), and then extracts the applicable car and application date for each station from the car list instruction. S3), an applicable machine / day list is created (S4). Here, for example, when the station name “A” and the automatic ticket gate 4-1 installed at the ticket gate of the station “A” are described in the number list instruction sheet, “A-01”-“4:01” (Applicable date: April 1) ”is created (S4).

  Further, the applicable number list acquisition means 12A determines whether or not there is an additional applicable number for the same station name “A” (S5). Here, if the automatic ticket gate 4-n is described as the applicable number in the number list instruction, the process returns to step S3 to extract the station “A”, the applicable number “0n”, and the application date (4:08). , The applicable machine / day list “A-0n”-“4:08” is created. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, an application number / day list R including a station name “A” and two unit numbers / application dates “01-4: 01” and “01-4: 08” is created (FIG. 9). T1).

  The data update processing unit 12 executes the update data transmission unit 12B after creating the applicable number / day list R.

  The update data transmission means 12B reads the program data PD from the program storage unit 13a and adds it to the applicable car / day list R (S7) (T2 in FIG. 9), and then refers to the maintenance car management table 13b to determine the station “A 5 is transmitted based on the monitoring board ID of the monitoring board 3 associated with "(S8, T3 in FIG. 9).

(2) About the program transmission to the applicable number machine by the monitoring board 3, and the notification of the transmitted data to the maintenance server 1 (refer FIG.7 and FIG.9).

  The monitoring control unit 312 of the monitoring panel 3 constantly monitors the operating state of the plurality of automatic ticket gates 4-1 to 4-n (S21), but the communication control unit 311 is sent from the maintenance server 1. When the program data PD including the coming application machine / day list R is received (S22, T4 in FIG. 9), these received data are temporarily stored in the auxiliary storage unit 315, and then applied by referring to the monitoring machine table 315a. It is determined whether the applicable number machine on the number machine / day list R is in the monitored number machine (S23, T5 in FIG. 9).

  Here, if there is a monitoring target machine “01” that matches the monitoring machine table 315a, an individual applicable car / day list R1 “01” is assigned to the automatic ticket gate 4-1 that is the monitoring target car “01”. "-" 4:01 "is transmitted (S24, T6 in FIG. 9).

  Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the next applicable number “0n” on the number list R is in the monitoring target number (S25, T5 in FIG. 9). As a result, if there is a matching monitored unit “0n” in the monitored units, the individual applied unit / day list Rn “for the automatic ticket gate 4-n that is the monitored unit“ 0n ”. Program data PD including “0n” − “4:08” is transmitted (S24, T6 in FIG. 9).

  When the automatic ticket checkers 4-1 and 4-n receive the program data PD including the individual application number / date list, the automatic check gates 4-1 and 4-n temporarily store the data in the data storage unit 43 and then notify the monitoring panel 3 of the reception response data. (T7 in FIG. 9).

  The monitoring control unit 312 of the monitoring panel 3 transmits the program data PD including the individual application number / day lists R1, Rn to the automatic ticket gates 4-1, 4-n, and then the corresponding automatic ticket gates 4-1, 4-1 It is confirmed whether there is a reception notification from 4-n (S26). If there is a reception response notification from the automatic ticket checker 4-1, the transmitted data is transmitted to the maintenance server 1 together with the machine ID (S27, T8 in FIG. 9).

  Further, the monitoring control unit 312 of the monitoring panel 3 confirms whether or not there is a reception notification from the automatic ticket checker 4-n (S28). Is transmitted (S27, T8 in FIG. 9).

  The monitoring control unit 312 of the monitoring panel 3 sets a reception disabled state on the display unit 32b of the monitoring operation unit 32 when there is no reception notification even after a predetermined time has passed from any of the automatic ticket gates 4-1, 4-n. Display or inform the station staff by voice message (S29, S30).

  Further, the monitoring board 3 is set to continue processing based on the instruction from the input unit 32a by the station staff if the flag “1” is set after the processing of steps S28 and S30 is completed (step S21). Return to the above and repeat the same process.

(3) About the confirmation transmission completion processing of the program data by the maintenance server 1 (refer to FIG. 6 and FIG. 9).

  The data update processing unit 12 of the maintenance server 1 transmits the application number / day list R + program data PD to the monitoring panel 3 and then executes the number transmission confirmation unit 12C.

  That is, the machine number transmission confirmation unit 12C determines whether or not the machine number transmission notification to the application machine has been received after the application machine list / day list R + program data PD is transmitted (S9). Here, when a transmission notification of the number machine is received from the monitoring panel 3, "1 (transmitted data)" is set in the transmission presence / absence area of the transmission signal management unit 13d or the maintenance number management table 13a (S10, T9 in FIG. 9). ) To enable transmission confirmation of the program data PD to the applicable number machine.

  As for the confirmation that the unit has been transmitted as described above, it is judged whether or not the program has been transmitted to all the applicable units listed on the applicable unit / day list R (S11), and there are units that have not yet received a notification of transmission. For example, the process returns to step S9 and the same process is repeatedly executed.

  If there is a unit that has not received the transmission notification in step S9, the presence / absence of the transmission notification is determined until a predetermined time elapses (S9), and when there is no transmission notification even after the predetermined time elapses (S12), The fact that the specific machine data transmission is impossible is displayed on the display unit 32b of the monitoring operation unit 33, or the maintenance person of the maintenance server 1 is notified by voice message (S13).

(4-1) Program reception processing of each of the automatic ticket gates 4-1, 4-n (see FIG. 8A).

  The ticket gate processing control unit 42 of each automatic ticket gate 4-1, 4-n always performs the ticket gate processing using the program data already stored in the data storage unit 43 (S 41). When the program data PD is received (S42), the program data PD including the individual application machine / day lists R1 and Rn sent from the monitoring board 3 is fetched and temporarily stored in the data storage unit 43 ( S43).

  Thereafter, each ticket gate processing control unit 42 transmits reception response data to the monitoring panel 3 indicating that the automatic ticket gates 4-1 and 4-n, which are the corresponding application machines, have received the program data PD, respectively (S44).

  Each ticket gate process control unit 42 determines whether or not the process is a continuation process after transmitting the reception response data. If the process is a continuation process, the process returns to step S41, and the ticket gate process is performed using the old program data.

(4-2) Program update processing of each of the automatic ticket gates 4-1, 4-n (see FIG. 8B and FIG. 9).

  The ticket gate processing control unit 42 of each automatic ticket gate 4-1, 4-n checks the applicable machine / day list R 1, Rn every time the device is activated in the early morning (S 51), and the ticket gate processing control unit 42 itself applies the corresponding machine 01 on the list. , 0n (S52). If the ticket gate processing control unit 42 of the automatic ticket gate 4-1 is the applicable number 01, it is determined whether or not the current day (today) is an application date on the list R1 (S53, T10 in FIG. 9). The ticket gate processing control unit 42 of the automatic ticket gate 4-n performs the same processing.

Here, if the ticket gate processing control unit 42 of the automatic ticket gate 4-1 is the applicable application machine and the application date (T10 in FIG. 9), the old program data stored in the data storage unit 43 is read from the current monitoring panel 3. The program data PD is updated by replacing the received program data PD (S54, T11 in FIG. 9). The ticket gate processing control unit 42 of the automatic ticket gate 4-n performs the same processing as the ticket gate processing control unit 42 of the automatic ticket gate 4-1 (S54, T10 ′ and T11 ′ in FIG. 9).
Then, new program data PD is activated, and it is determined whether or not the operation state of the automatic ticket gate 4-1 is abnormal. If it is normal operation, a ticket gate process is performed (S56, S57). If the operation state of the automatic ticket gate 4-1 is abnormal, the monitoring panel 3 is notified to prompt the cause and the recovery action (S58).

  Therefore, according to the embodiment as described above, the maintenance server 1 obtains the application number / date list for each station from the number list instruction sheet in which the application number / application date of about one or two of the plurality of stations is recorded. It is created and transmitted to the station monitoring board 3 together with the program data. When the monitoring panel 3 receives the application unit / day list, it creates an individual application unit / day list and sends it to the automatic ticket gate of the application unit together with the program data to update it. The application date can be determined and the program data can be automatically updated.

  In addition, even if some trouble occurs due to the updated program data, it will be a trouble with only one automatic ticket gate, so the ticket gate processing can be executed with the remaining automatic ticket gates, minimizing the impact. And recovery from an abnormality can be realized at an early stage.

  In addition, when the monitoring board 3 registers the machine to be monitored in advance and receives the program data including the applicable machine / day list from the maintenance server 1, there is a monitoring machine that matches the applicable machine. Since the program data is transmitted to the applicable number, the program data can be transmitted and updated to the desired number (automatic ticket gate) without error.

  In addition, since the monitoring panel 3 is configured to receive the reception notification of the program data from the automatic ticket checker that is the application number, the reception state of the program data to the automatic ticket checker can be surely grasped.

  Furthermore, when the maintenance server 1 receives the transmitted data of the program data from the monitoring panel 3, the maintenance server 1 registers that the program has been transmitted to the automatic ticket gate that is the application number, so that the transmission status of the program can be reliably confirmed. Can be managed.
