Description

  The present invention relates to a measurement point group setting device that groups a plurality of measurement points.

  In a data collection device such as a paperless recorder, a measurement value is collected from a measurement point where the measurement device or the like is arranged, and is recorded and displayed. In general, a plurality of measurement points are dispersed in a factory or site, but centralized monitoring can be performed by acquiring measurement values from each measurement point with a data collection device.

  Conventionally, measurement points are grouped when monitoring measurement values using a data collection device. Since grouping enables recording and monitoring in units of groups as shown in FIG. 6, for example, by grouping measurement points by location such as each building on the site or each factory area , Recording and monitoring efficiency can be improved.

  Conventionally, for example, as shown in FIG. 7, a grouping operation is performed by a user specifying measurement points to be included in a group to be set one by one from a list of measurement points indicated by a tag name such as “A001”. It was done by doing.

  For this reason, when the number of measurement points is large, the grouping work becomes complicated. In addition, since the correspondence between the tag name and the actual position of the measurement point cannot be intuitively grasped, there is a problem in that grouping work in a positional group is not efficient.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to improve the efficiency of grouping work of measurement points.

In order to solve the above problems, a measurement point group setting device of the present invention is a measurement point group setting device that groups a plurality of measurement points arranged in a monitoring target region, and includes map information of the monitoring target region, A display control unit that generates measurement point position information in which position information for each measurement point is recorded, a measurement point selection screen in which each measurement point is arranged in a selectable position at a corresponding position in the map information, and An input unit that receives operation information related to selection, and a determination unit that groups a plurality of measurement points selected on the measurement point selection screen and records them as group configuration information.
Here, when the input unit receives designation of an arbitrary region on the measurement point selection screen, the determination unit can set the measurement point included in the region to the selected state.
In addition, when the input unit receives designation of an arbitrary position on the measurement point selection screen, the determination unit may select a measurement point included within a predetermined distance from the position.
Further, a position measurement function may be further provided, and the determination unit may select a measurement point included within a predetermined distance from the position measured by the position measurement function on the measurement point selection screen.

  According to the present invention, the grouping work of measurement points can be made efficient.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram schematically illustrating a configuration of a measurement system according to the present embodiment. In the example of this figure, it is assumed that the monitoring target area is divided from the A area to the D area, and each area includes a plurality of measurement points (Axxx). However, the area is convenient and can be arbitrary.

  The measurement point is a point at which a physical quantity such as temperature or pressure is measured. The installation location of a measurement device that performs wireless communication such as A001, the installation location of a measurement device that performs wired communication such as A011, or a thermoelectric device such as A0018. Pairs of junctions etc. can be included.

  The data collection device 200 performs wireless and wired communication, and acquires measurement values from each measurement point. The data collection device 200 can be constituted by, for example, a paperless recorder, a data logger, or the like.

  The data collection device 200 is connected to the measurement point group setting device 100. The measurement point group setting device 100 is a device that supports measurement point grouping work. The group configuration information set in the grouping operation is notified to the data collection device 200.

  The measurement point group setting device 100 can be configured by, for example, a PC on which a tool for the data collection device 200 is installed, a portable information processing device, a server device that provides a tool for the data collection device 200, or the like. Further, the data collection device 200 may have a function as the measurement point group setting device 100.

  FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of the measurement point group setting device 100. As shown in the figure, the measurement point group setting device 100 includes a control unit 110, a display control unit 120, and a storage unit 130. The measurement point group setting device 100 is connected to a display device 180 such as a liquid crystal panel and an input device 190 such as a mouse and a keyboard. A touch panel serving both as a display device and an input device may be used.

The control unit 110 includes an input unit 111 that inputs operation information related to grouping such as selection of measurement points via the input device 190, and a determination unit 112 that determines the contents of the input information and groups measurement points. I have. The display control unit 120 controls display contents of the display device 180. In particular, the storage unit 130 that generates a measurement point selection screen in which each measurement point is arranged at a corresponding position in the map information is selectable. The storage unit 130 stores the map information 131, the measurement point position information 132, and the group configuration information 133. . The map information 131 is map information of the monitoring target area. The measurement point position information 132 is position information of measurement points included in the monitoring target area. For example, the measurement point position information 132 associates position information such as latitude and longitude with each tag name of the measurement point. The group configuration information 133 is information indicating groups set by the user and measurement points included in each group. You may make it include the measurement channel information etc. of a measurement point.

  Next, the operation of the measurement point group setting apparatus 100 configured as described above will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. First, prior to setting a group, the map information of the monitoring target area is collected and recorded in the map information 131 (S101), and the position information of each measurement point is collected and recorded in the measurement point position information 132 ( S102).

  As the map information 131, for example, data generally provided on the Internet can be used. You may make it acquire the map information 131 in real time as needed.

  The measurement point position information 132 can be acquired by communicating with a measurement device, for example, when the measurement device arranged at the measurement point has a GPS function. Moreover, you may utilize the positional information obtained from the communication base station and communication access point which communicate with a measuring apparatus.

  Further, the measurement point position information may be received manually from the user. In this case, for example, the map information 131 is displayed on the display device 180, and the position information of the measurement point can be specified by receiving an instruction of the arrangement position by a mouse operation or the like. Further, the measurement point group setting device 100 is provided with a position measurement function such as GPS, and the measurement point position information is acquired by moving the measurement point group setting device 100 to the measurement point and receiving a predetermined operation. May be.

  When an instruction for grouping setting is received from the user (S103: Yes), the grouping setting operation is started. In the grouping setting operation, first, designation of a setting target group is received from the user (S104). Here, for example, it is assumed that “group 1” is designated as the group to be set.

  When the group designation is received, the display control unit 120 refers to the map information 131 and the measurement point position information 132 to generate a measurement point selection screen as shown in FIG. 4 and displays it on the display device 180. The measurement point selection screen is a screen in which each measurement point is arranged in a selectable state at a corresponding position in the map information.

  On this screen, the user can select measurement points to be included in “group 1” designated as a setting target. The selection / cancellation of the measurement point can be performed, for example, by clicking the measurement point with the input device 190 such as a mouse or touching the touch panel surface.

  Also, as shown in the figure, an arbitrary area can be drawn on the screen, and all measurement points included in the area can be selected. Thus, an intuitive selection operation can be performed, and a plurality of measurement points can be selected at a time, so that it is possible to greatly reduce the trouble of grouping the measurement points in area units or the like.

  When an instruction to execute grouping is received by operating the “OK” button or the like in a state where a plurality of measurement points are selected (S106: Yes), the determination unit 112 sets the selected measurement point to the group to be set. Is included in the storage unit 130 as group configuration information 133 (S107).

  When the grouping operation is performed for other groups (S108: Yes), the operation after the designation of the group to be set (S104) is repeated.

  Note that the selection of measurement points on the measurement point selection screen is not limited to the above example. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, by specifying a specific position and a distance, measurement points included in a region within a specified distance centered on the specified position can be selected. In this case, the specific position may be designated on the map on the measurement point selection screen, or may be the current position of the group setting device 100. Accordingly, for example, a flexible monitoring operation can be performed in which the user moves together with the group setting device 100 in a monitoring place and dynamically groups and monitors measurement points close to the current position of the user.
