The first motor operation data 22a corresponds to data for controlling the operation of the first motor 13a, and the second motor operation data 22b corresponds to data for controlling the second motor 13b.

  The first motor operation data 22a is formed based on the operation characteristics of the first motor 13a, and the second motor operation data 22b is formed based on the operation characteristics of the second motor 13b. Here, the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b have different operating characteristics, and therefore the first motor operation data 22a and the second motor operation data 22b are formed as different data.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the first motor operation data 22a includes acceleration data 22a1 indicated by “A”, constant speed data 22a2 indicated by “V”, and deceleration data 22a3 indicated by “D”. The second motor operation data 22b includes acceleration data 22b1 indicated by “A”, constant speed data 22b2 indicated by “V”, and deceleration data 22b3 indicated by “D”.

Hereinafter, simply“ going ”). ) ”And the rotation characteristics (unit time) of the“ return (movement of the accessory in a fixed position direction. Hereinafter simply referred to as “return”) ”. There may be a difference in the rotation angle. Therefore, in this embodiment, the first motor operation data 22a and the second motor operation data 22b have “going” data and “returning” data, respectively.

Is recorded). On the other hand, the constant speed data 22a2 records a state where the speed is "25" and there is no speed change. The second motor operation data 22b is also configured in the same manner as the motor operation data 22a, but is not shown in FIG.

  The unit time and speed states of the first motor operation data 22a and the second motor operation data 22b shown in FIG. 2 are examples. The first motor operation data 22a and the second motor operation data 22b are anything other than that shown in FIG. 2 as long as the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b can be operated correctly. May be.

[Indicating the operating status]
The operation state display unit 4 uses the coordinate space data 21 and the motor operation data 22 to create a diagram for displaying the operation state of the motor on the coordinate space, and displays the graphic on the display screen 81 as “display means”. Let

  Here, as shown in the conceptual diagram of FIG. 4, on the one display screen 81, the first graph 811 indicating the operating state of the first motor 13a and the second indicating the operating state of the second motor 13b. Each graph 812 is displayed. If there are motors in the gaming machine main body 11 other than the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b, a graph of the number of those motors is further displayed on the display screen 81. The operating state of each motor is displayed on the top.

  In the first graph 811, the acceleration state, the constant speed state, and the deceleration state are displayed in a state where the “going” and “returning” of the first motor 13 a can be visually recognized. In the second graph 812, the “accelerated state”, “constant speed state”, and “decelerated state” are displayed in a state where “bound” and “return” can be visually recognized. That is, in the first graph 811 and the second graph 812, these states are displayed as a substantially rectangular figure in which the vertical side is parallel to the vertical axis and the horizontal side is parallel to the horizontal axis.

  Specifically, each of the rectangles displayed in the first graph 811 of FIG. 4 has an acceleration display 22a111, constant speed displays 22a211 and 22a212, and a deceleration display 22a311 which are acceleration operations of the first motor 13a “going”, A constant speed operation and a deceleration operation are shown, respectively, and an acceleration display 22a121, a constant speed display 22a221, and a deceleration display 22a321 show the "return" acceleration operation, constant speed operation, and deceleration operation of the first motor 13a, respectively.

  Each rectangle displayed in the second graph 812 in FIG. 4 indicates that the acceleration display 22b111, the constant speed display 22b211 and the deceleration display 22b311 indicate the acceleration operation, the constant speed operation, and the deceleration operation of the second motor 13b. The acceleration display 22b121, the constant speed display 22b221, and the deceleration display 22b321 respectively indicate the “return” acceleration operation, constant speed operation, and deceleration operation of the first motor 13b.

  In each display 22a111, 22a211, 22a212, 22a311, 22a121, 22a221, 22a321, 22b111, 22b211, 22b311, 22b121, 22b221, 22b321, the position and length of the horizontal side is the timing and length of each operation. The position and length of the vertical side indicate the range and size of the rotation angle at which each operation is performed.

  Further, the second graph 812 shows the first graph in a state where the acceleration state, the constant speed state, and the deceleration state can be visually recognized for each of “going” and “returning” of the second motor 13b. It is displayed in the same rectangle as 811.

  These figures shown in the first graph 811 and the second graph 812 are the time that the operator wants to operate the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b using the operation unit 7, and By inputting numerical values such as the rotation angle and distance to be operated, the operation state display unit 4 causes the acceleration data 22a1, the constant speed data 22a2, the deceleration data 22a3 of the first motor operation data 22a, and the second motor operation data. Using the acceleration data 22b1, the constant speed data 22b2, and the deceleration data 22b3 of 22b, the timing and the rotation angle at which each of the "going" and "return" acceleration operations, constant speed operations, and deceleration operations are performed are automatically calculated. Based on the calculated result, a rectangle corresponding to a corresponding position on the first graph 811 or the second graph 812 is displayed. However, the operator inputs the numerical values of the acceleration operation, the constant speed operation, and the deceleration operation of the “going” and “returning” of the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b by using the operation unit 7. Each rectangle may be displayed on the first graph 811 or the second graph 812.

[Processing procedure]
FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure of the motor operation state management system 1A according to this embodiment. Hereinafter, the contents of the process of the motor operation state management system 1A will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, the operator operates the operation unit 7 of the motor operation state management device 1 to cause the motor operation state management device 1 to form a coordinate space (step S1) and display an operation state (step S2). For example, the operator uses the operation unit 7 to input numerical values such as the time for which the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b are to be operated, the rotation angle and the distance to be operated, etc., and display them as a graph. Enter the command to be executed. Thus, the coordinate space forming unit 3 forms a coordinate space in which the horizontal axis is time and the vertical axis is the motor rotation angle. Further, the operation state display unit 4 is based on the numerical value input from the operation unit 7 and the first motor operation data 22a and the second motor operation data 22b recorded in the recording unit 2. The timing and rotation angle at which the “going” and “returning” acceleration operation, constant speed operation, and deceleration operation of the 13a and the second motor 13b are performed are automatically calculated. Then, the operation state display unit 4 displays a rectangle corresponding to a corresponding position on the first graph 811 or the second graph 812 based on the calculated result.

  As a result, a display screen 81 is displayed on the display 8 as shown in FIG. 4, and a first graph 811 and a second graph 812 are displayed on the display screen 81. The first graph 811 includes an “inbound” acceleration display 22a111, constant speed displays 22a211 and 22a212, a deceleration display 22a311 based on the operation characteristics of the first motor 13a (operation characteristics based on the first motor operation data 22a). , "Return" acceleration display 22a121, constant speed display 22a221, and deceleration display 22a321 are displayed in a rectangle. Similarly, on the second graph 812, “bound” acceleration display 22 b 111, constant speed display 22 b 211, deceleration display based on the operation characteristics of the second motor 13 b (operation characteristics based on the second motor operation data 22 b). 22b311, "return" addition display 22b12, constant speed display 22b221, and deceleration display 22b321 are shown.

  By displaying in this way, when the operator visually recognizes the display screen 81, the operation timing and the rotation angle state of the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b are visually determined by the position, size, and shape of the rectangle. Can be confirmed and contrasted intuitively and intuitively.

  If the gaming machine body 11 has a motor that activates an accessory other than the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b, and it is desired to visually and intuitively check the operating state of the motor. (“Yes” in step S3), the coordinate space forming unit 3 and the operation state display unit 4 repeat the processing of step S1 and step S2, and a graph is displayed for each motor on the display screen 81 for those motors. Then, on the graph, acceleration display of “going”, constant speed display, and deceleration display and acceleration display of “return”, constant speed display, and deceleration display are respectively displayed.

  On the display screen 81, all the graphs indicating the operation of the motor to be displayed (for example, the graph 811 and the graph 812 shown in FIG. 4) are displayed (“Yes” in step S3). When it is desired to correct the operation state of the first motor 13a or the second motor 13b by looking at the graph 812 (“Yes” in step S4), the display correction unit 5 is displayed in the graph 811 or the graph 812. The figure is corrected (step S5). This correction may be performed based on specific numerical values of the operation timing and the rotation angle input from the operation unit 7 by the operator. In addition, in the modification, when the display 8 is a touch panel type, the operator taps the display 8 and the size of any display on the display screen 81 (for example, the constant speed display 22a211 of the first graph 811). It may be performed based on information obtained by changing.

  In addition, when it becomes necessary to correct the first motor operation data 22a and the second motor operation data 22b due to the correction in step S5, the display correction unit 5 displays the first motor operation data of the recording unit 2. In the data 22a and the second motor operation data 22b, a portion requiring correction is corrected.

  On the other hand, graphs (for example, the first graph 811 and the second graph 812) are displayed on the display screen 81 for all the motors (for example, the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b) (“Yes” in step S3). If it is not necessary to correct these displays (“No” in step S4), the process in step S5 is not performed.

  When the screen displayed on the display screen 81 indicates the operation state desired by the operator for the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b, the operator operates the operation unit 7 to operate the motor operation state. The management apparatus 1 is made to create a control command for operating the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b. Upon receiving this control command creation instruction, the control command creation unit 13 creates and outputs sequence data and a program for operating the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b, respectively (step S6). The output sequence data and program are supplied to the control means 12 provided in the gaming machine main body 11. The control means 12 operates the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b based on the supplied sequence data and program. By operating the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b, these installed accessories (not shown) are operated.

  Thereby, based on the information visually and intuitively confirmed on the display screen 81, the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b that operate the accessory (not shown) provided in the gaming machine main body 11 are operated. Can create information for operation control. Therefore, it is possible to easily create control information for operating the first motor 13a and the second motor 13b provided in the gaming machine body 11 and the accessory installed on them.
