  In the present embodiment, when the control signal is transmitted from the central control device 20 to the electric blind device 10, the ID of the electric blind device 10 to be controlled is designated and the control signal is broadcasted to all the electric blinds. .., 10 and the electric blind devices 10, 10,..., 10 are configured to determine whether or not a control signal addressed to the own device is received. Of course, the control signal may not be transmitted to all the electric blind devices 10, 10,..., But the control signal may be transmitted only to the electric blind device 10 to be controlled. is there.

Hereinafter, the operation of the electric blind device 10 according to the present embodiment will be described.
FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a control procedure of the electric blind device 10 according to the first embodiment. The control unit 11 of the electric blind device 10 determines whether a control signal is input through the communication unit 13 or the connection unit 14 (step S11). When not input (S11: NO), the control part 11 waits until a control signal is input.

  When it is determined that the control signal is input (S11: YES), the control unit 11 determines whether the control signal is input through the communication unit 13 or the control signal input through the connection unit 14. Then, it is determined whether or not the input control signal is a signal from the operation panel 140 (step S12).

  When the input control signal is a signal input through the connection unit 14, it is determined that the control signal is a signal from the operation panel 140 (S12: YES), and the control unit 11 is set using the built-in timer. Countdown of time (for example, 30 minutes) is started (step S13).

  Next, the control unit 11 performs motor control based on the input control signal (step S14). For example, the control unit 11 outputs a control signal to the elevation control unit 15 to control the driving of the electric motor 15M and to control the elevation operation of the slats. Or the control part 11 controls the drive of the electric motor 16M by outputting the control signal with respect to the tilt control part 16, and adjusts the angle of a slat. After performing motor control, the control part 11 returns a process to step S1.

  On the other hand, when the input control signal is a signal input through the communication unit 13, it is determined that the control signal is a signal from the central control device 20 (not a signal from the operation panel 140) (S12: NO). . Next, the control unit 11 refers to the output of the built-in timer and determines whether or not the countdown value is zero (step S15).

When the countdown value is not zero (S15: NO), that is, when the set time has not elapsed since the countdown was started, the control unit 11 returns the process to step S11 to control the central control device 20. Disable.
When the countdown value is zero (S15: YES), that is, when the set time has elapsed since the countdown was started, the control unit 11 shifts the process to step S14 to input the control signal. The motor control based on the above is executed (S14).

  As described above, in the first embodiment, when the control is performed from the operation panel 140 of the electric blind device 10, the control signal transmitted from the central control device 20 until the set time (for example, 30 minutes) elapses. Even when the control signal is received, it is possible to give priority to the user's operation only for the set time by adopting a configuration in which the control based on the control signal is not performed.

  In the first embodiment, when it is determined that the input control signal is a control signal output from the operation panel 140, the control unit 11 starts the countdown of the set time. Can be arbitrarily set. For example, the countdown of the set time may be started at the timing when the motor control is started based on the control signal output from the operation panel 140.

  In the first embodiment, the set time is counted down. However, the timing at which it is determined that the input control signal is the control signal output from the operation panel 140, the timing at which the motor control is started, and the like. It is good also as a structure which starts control by the built-in timer of the control part 11, and invalidates control from the central control apparatus 20 until setting time passes after starting time measurement.

(Embodiment 2)
In the first embodiment, when the electric blind device 10 receives control from the operation panel 140, the control from the central control device 20 is invalidated for a preset time, but is invalidated. It is good also as a structure which a user can change time arbitrarily.
In the second embodiment, a configuration in which the user changes the set time will be described. The overall configuration of the electric blind control system and the internal configuration of each electric blind device 10 and the central control device 20 are the same as those in the first embodiment, and thus the description thereof will be omitted.

  FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing a procedure for changing the set time. The control unit 11 of the electric blind device 10 determines whether or not a change in the set time has been accepted through the operation panel 140 (step S21). For example, when the control unit 11 receives a predetermined operation including a button operation for starting a change of the set time, an operation for receiving an input of the set time, and a button operation for ending the change of the set time through the operation panel 140, the setting is performed. It can be determined that the time change has been accepted. When the change of setting time is not received (S21: NO), the control part 11 complete | finishes the process by this flowchart.

  When the change of setting time is received (S21: YES), the control part 11 memorize | stores the information which concerns on the setting time after a change in the memory | storage part 12 (step S22).

  The operation for accepting the change of the set time is not limited to the above. For example, it may be configured to shift to a mode for accepting a change in the set time by an operation such as continuous operation of a specific button or simultaneous operation of a plurality of buttons. Further, instead of receiving the time length of the set time, the time length of the set time may be changed by receiving the start timing or the end timing for invalidating the control from the central control device 20.

  Further, the set time may be defined by setting a start time and an end time for invalidating the control from the central control device 20. In this case, when the control unit 11 of the electric blind device 10 receives the control from the operation panel 140, the control unit 11 refers to the built-in clock means, and when the current time is the time from the set start time to the end time, What is necessary is just to set it as the structure which invalidates the control from the central control apparatus 20.

  As described above, in the second embodiment, since the user can arbitrarily change the time for invalidating the control from the central control device 20, the set time set by the user according to the installation environment of the electric brand device In the meantime, individual operations using the operation panel 140 can be prioritized.

(Embodiment 3)
In the third embodiment, when the electric blind device 10 receives control from the operation panel 140, the control from the central control device 20 is invalidated and the set time elapses for a preset set time. When a control signal is received from the central control device 20 until the control content indicated by the control signal is stored in the storage unit 12, and the control content stored in the storage unit 12 is executed after the set time has elapsed. The structure to perform is demonstrated.
The overall configuration of the electric blind control system and the internal configuration of each electric blind device 10 and the central control device 20 are the same as those in the first embodiment, and thus the description thereof will be omitted.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing an example of a control procedure of the electric blind device 10 according to the third embodiment. The control unit 11 of the electric blind device 10 determines whether a control signal is input through the communication unit 13 or the connection unit 14 (step S31). When it is determined that the control signal is input (S31: YES), the control unit 11 determines whether the control signal is input through the communication unit 13 or the control signal input through the connection unit 14. Then, it is determined whether or not the input control signal is a signal from the operation panel 140 (step S32).

  When the input control signal is a signal input through the connection unit 14, it is determined that the control signal is a signal from the operation panel 140 (S32: YES), and the control unit 11 is set using the built-in timer. Countdown of time (for example, 30 minutes) is started (step S33).

  Next, the control unit 11 performs motor control based on the input control signal (step S34). For example, the control unit 11 outputs a control signal to the elevation control unit 15 to control the driving of the electric motor 15M and to control the elevation operation of the slats. Or the control part 11 controls the drive of the electric motor 16M by outputting the control signal with respect to the tilt control part 16, and adjusts the angle of a slat. After performing motor control, the control part 11 returns a process to step S31.

  On the other hand, when the input control signal is a signal input through the communication unit 13, it is determined that the control signal is a signal from the central control device 20 (not a signal from the operation panel 140) (S32: NO). . Next, the control unit 11 refers to the output of the built-in timer and determines whether or not the countdown value is zero (step S35).

  When the countdown value is not zero (S35: NO), that is, when the set time has not elapsed since the countdown was started, the control unit 11 causes the storage unit 12 to store the control content based on the input control signal. (Step S36), the process returns to Step S31. If it is determined in step S35 that the countdown value is zero (S35: YES), the control unit 11 performs motor control based on the input control signal (S34).

  When it is determined in step S31 that no control signal is input (S31: NO), the control unit 11 determines whether or not the countdown value is zero by referring to the output of the built-in timer (step S37). ). When the countdown value is not zero (S37: NO), the control unit 11 returns the process to step S31.

  When it is determined that the countdown value is zero (S37: YES), the control unit 11 determines whether or not the control content stored in the storage unit 12 exists (step S38). When it is determined that there is no control content stored in the storage unit 12 (S38: NO), the control unit 11 returns the process to step S31.

  When it is determined that the control content stored in the storage unit 12 exists (S38: YES), the control unit 11 reads the control content stored in the storage unit 12 (step S39), and performs motor control based on the read control content. Perform (step S40). For example, the control unit 11 outputs a control signal to the elevation control unit 15 to control the driving of the electric motor 15M and to control the elevation operation of the slats. Or the control part 11 controls the drive of the electric motor 16M by outputting the control signal with respect to the tilt control part 16, and adjusts the angle of a slat. After the motor control, the control unit 11 returns the process to step S31.

  As described above, when control is performed from the operation panel 140 of the electric blind device 10, the control from the central control device 20 is invalidated and invalidated until a set time (for example, 30 minutes) elapses. Since the control is resumed after the set time elapses, the electric blind devices 10, 10,..., 10 after the set time elapse can be controlled in the same state while giving priority to the individual operation by the user.

(Embodiment 4)
In the first to third embodiments, the control from the central control device 20 is invalidated by the electric blind device 10. However, when the control signal is transmitted from the central control device 20, the control is performed from the operation panel 140. It is good also as a structure which excludes the electric electric blind apparatus 10 from the control object only for setting time.
In the fourth embodiment, a configuration will be described in which the electric blind device 10 operated by the operation panel 140 is excluded from the control target for a set time and a control signal is transmitted.

  FIG. 7 is a conceptual diagram illustrating an example of a control signal transmitted from the central control device 20 to the electric blind device 10. The control signal transmitted from the central control device 20 to the electric blind device 10 includes, for example, a signal length, a signal type, a target ID, a non-target ID, an operation item 1, a value 1, an operation item 2, and a value 2. The control signal shown as an example in FIG. 7 includes the ID of the electric blind device 10 to be controlled and the control content to be executed by the electric blind device 10.

  The signal type represents the control type of the electric blind device 10. Specifically, it represents which of the control of only the raising / lowering position of the slat, the control of only the angle of the slat, and the control of both the raising / lowering position and angle of the slat.

  The target ID represents the ID of the electric blind device 10 to be controlled. The configuration may be such that the IDs of one or more specific electric blind devices 10, 10,..., 10 are directly specified, and all the electric blind devices 10, 10,. , 10 may be specified. Moreover, the structure which designates the some electric blind device 10,10, ..., 10 by ID range designation | designated (for example, 0x01-0x05) may be sufficient.

  The exclusion ID represents the ID of the electric blind device 10 to be excluded from the control target among the electric blind devices 10, 10,. For example, when all the electric blind devices 10, 10,..., 10 are specified as the control target by the target ID, and when the exclusion ID is specified as 0x03, all the electric blind devices 10, 10,. .., 10 represents that only the electric blind device 10 specified by ID = 0x03 is excluded from the control target.

Operation item 1 and value 1 (operation item 2 and value 2) represent the item to be controlled and the value of that item. For example, when the operation item 1 is the control of the raising / lowering position of the slat and the value (value 1) is 0x11, the electric blind device 10 that has received the control signal sets the electric motor 15M that controls the raising / lowering position of the slat. By driving and raising (or lowering) the slat from the current position, the raising / lowering position of the slat is changed to 0x11. When the operation item 2 is slat angle control, and the value is 0x20, the electric blind device 10 that has received the control signal drives the electric motor 16M that controls the slat angle, and the slat angle Is changed from the current angle to change the slat angle to 0x20.
Note that the operation item 2 and the value 2 do not have to be included when only the lifting position control or the angle control is performed.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing an example of a control procedure of the electric blind device 10 according to the fourth embodiment. The control unit 11 of the electric blind device 10 determines whether a control signal is input through the communication unit 13 or the connection unit 14 (step S41). When not input (S41: NO), the control part 11 waits until a control signal is input.

  When it is determined that the control signal is input (S41: YES), the control unit 11 determines whether the control signal is input through the communication unit 13 or the control signal input through the connection unit 14. Then, it is determined whether or not the input control signal is a signal from the operation panel 140 (step S42).

When the input control signal is a signal input through the connection unit 14, it is determined that the control signal is a signal from the operation panel 140 (S42: YES), and the control unit 11 determines the ID of its own device, and The central control device 20 is notified that control from the operation panel 140 has been accepted (step S43), and motor control is performed based on the input control signal (step S44). For example, the control unit 11 outputs a control signal to the elevation control unit 15 to control the driving of the electric motor 15M and to control the elevation operation of the slats. Or the control part 11 controls the drive of the electric motor 16M by outputting the control signal with respect to the tilt control part 16, and adjusts the angle of a slat.
On the other hand, when the input control signal is a signal input through the communication unit 13, it is determined that the control signal is a signal from the central control device 20 (not a signal from the operation panel 140) (S42: NO). The controller 11 performs motor control based on the input control signal without notifying the central controller 20 (S44).

  The control unit 21 of the central control device 20 determines whether or not a notification from the electric blind device 10 has been received (step S45). When it is determined that the notification from the electric blind device 10 has been received (S45: YES), the control unit 21 identifies the ID of the transmission source of the received notification (step S46), and uses a built-in timer for a set time (for example, (30 minutes) countdown is started (step S47).

  When the countdown is started or when it is determined in step S45 that the notification from the electric blind device 10 has not been received (S45: NO), the control unit 21 determines whether or not the electric blind device 10 needs to be controlled ( Step S48).

  When an instruction from the administrator is accepted through the operation unit 25 or when a predetermined time is reached as the control timing, the control unit 21 determines that control of the electric blind device 10 is necessary (S48: YES). If it is determined that control of the electric blind device 10 is unnecessary (S48: NO), the control unit 21 returns the process to step S45.

  Next, the control unit 21 refers to the output of the built-in timer and determines whether or not the countdown value is zero (step S49).

  When it is determined that the countdown value is zero (S49: YES), that is, when the set time has elapsed after the countdown is started (or when the countdown is not performed), the control unit 21 controls the electric motor to be controlled. A control signal including all target IDs of the blind devices 10, 10,..., 10 is generated (step S50).

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the countdown value is not zero (S49: NO), the control unit 21 generates a control signal excluding the ID specified in step S46 among the electric blind devices 10, 10,. (Step S51).

  Subsequently, the control part 21 transmits the control signal produced | generated by step S50 or step S51 to each electric blind apparatus 10, 10, ..., 10 via the communication line N (step S52).

  When the control unit 11 of the electric blind device 10 receives the control signal transmitted from the central control device 20 through the communication unit 13 (step S53), the process returns to step S41. In the processing after step S41, when the received control signal is a control signal addressed to the own device (that is, the ID of the own device is specified as the target ID and the ID of the own device is specified as the non-target ID). (If not, it may be configured to execute only).

  As described above, in the fourth embodiment, when the control is performed from the operation panel 140 of the electric blind device 10, the control signal transmitted from the central control device 20 until the set time (for example, 30 minutes) elapses. By not including the ID of the electric blind device 10, the user's operation can be prioritized only for the set time.

  The embodiment disclosed this time is to be considered as illustrative in all points and not restrictive.
