In step 4, the change of the interlocking element based on the calculation result is displayed on the display device D in correspondence with the name. The display is controlled by the display processing unit 16, for example, a list as shown in FIG. 4 is displayed, and the state can be recognized by the color and luminance. Next, in step 5, it is selected whether or not to continue the inspection, and if so, the process returns to step 2.

 A more detailed operation will be described with reference to FIG.

Step 6 is an initial screen for starting the inspection, which is displayed on the display device D. A menu for selecting a method of inspection is displayed on the screen, and specifically, such as 1 semi-automatic designation 2 semi-automatic designation 3 end The number indicates the number of the function key.
If no semi-automatic designation is selected, a table as shown in FIG. This table shows the initial state, in which all the interlocking elements are dropped and all are displayed in red. When the cursor is moved to the target to be inspected and the CR key of the keyboard K is pressed, the interlocking element is inverted to white and the input as the inspection target is performed. In case of correction, press the CR key again to reverse to red.

When the specification of the inspection target is completed in this way, the contents are confirmed in step 9 and the next step is selected in step 10.

Pressing the F2 key on the interlocking inspection device 10 returns to the initial screen of step 6, and pressing the F1 key proceeds to step 11 and proceeds to step 12.
Is used to indicate a logical operation. Pressing the F2 key in the data storage unit 12 returns to the screen of step 8, and pressing the F1 key returns to the step
At 13, a logical operation is performed by the logical operation unit 13.

The result of the operation is displayed by returning to step 8, and the result can be known from the color of the interlocking element.

When the F2 key is pressed in step 7, the process of semi-automatic designation 1 is started in step 14. This process immediately indicates the state of the interlocking element affected by the change of the state of one interlocking element.

The screen of step 14 of semi-automatic specification 1 is the same as the screen of step 8, but each interlocking element is white. When the cursor position is determined and the CR key of the keyboard K is pressed, the color is inverted to red. And input as a set so that the linked element as the starting point and the linked element whose result is to be known are inverted to red.

The input result can be confirmed because the linked element serving as a starting point is displayed as a set in step 15.
After that, when the F1 key is pressed at step 16, the flow of semi-automatic designation 2 is entered at step 17, and when the processing of only semi-automatic designation 1 is performed, the flow of semi-automatic designation 2 from step 17 onward is passed to step 8, and the process proceeds to step 8. After performing the following processing and logical operation, the result is displayed again on the screen in step 8.

Pressing the F2 key in step 16 returns to step 14, and pressing the F3 key returns to step 6.

The process of semi-automatic designation 2 after step 17 is to display all the results of the logical operation for the designated linked element.

The logical elements on the screen in step 17 are all white. When the cursor is placed on the logical element to be specified and the CR key on the keyboard K is pressed, the color is inverted to blue. When all the interlocking elements to be specified turn blue, check that the input in step 18 is correct in terms of input.

After that, the next operation is selected in step 19. Pressing the F2 key returns to step 17, and pressing the F3 key returns to step 6. When the F1 key is pressed, step 8 is entered, and the processing and logical operations thereafter are performed, and the result is displayed on the screen again in step 8.

It is needless to say that the CRT screen display may be displayed not only by color but also by a difference in brightness or shading, and may be a partial sampling display instead of a list. The result may be printed out.

It goes without saying that a fully automatic inspection may be performed under a predetermined inspection procedure. Further, the storage medium may be a ROM.
