JP2811906B2 - Vending machine data error notification control device - Google Patents

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a vending machine which sets control data with a keyboard or the like and performs a selling operation based on the control data.
The present invention relates to a data abnormality reporting device of a vending machine for reporting abnormal data among the control data to an operator.

[Prior Art] In this type of apparatus, conventionally set data is regularly inspected, and if the data cannot be used within a data value range, an abnormality is displayed by a lamp or the like and all columns are sold out. . The operator was also encouraged to replace the abnormal data with a method that replaces all the standard data provided in the vending machine. The operator was loading all data accordingly.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in the conventional apparatus, when the data value stored in the vending machine is destroyed due to a disturbance or the like and goes out of the range of use, the presence of abnormal data using a lamp or a display screen. To the operator, which data has been destroyed,
In addition, since the operator is urged to replace all data with the operator, the operator performs automatic loading of all data, so that all data are changed to standard values.

For this reason, there was a problem that the operator had to set data other than the standard value again in order to make it available for sale.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a data abnormality notification control device for a vending machine that eliminates the above-mentioned problems and easily recovers only abnormal data.

Means for Solving the Problems As shown in FIG. 1, the present invention provides a data setting unit for setting setting data in controlling a vending machine, a setting data display unit for displaying the setting data, and the setting. Storage means for storing data; data judging means for judging whether the setting data is usable; display means for notifying the unusable setting data to the outside when the setting data is unusable; Display command means for giving a display command for displaying the setting data determined to be unusable by the means on the display means.

[Operation] According to the present invention, when a data value stored in a vending machine is destroyed due to a disturbance or the like and is out of a usable range, a setting screen of the destroyed data is provided as a means for notifying that an abnormality has occurred. Is automatically displayed on the setting data display so as to prompt the operator to input data.

Embodiment FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention.

In the figure, 1 is a setting data display for displaying set data, 2 is a setting keyboard, and 3 is an input / output I / O.
Port 4 is an RA for storing data and input information
A storage device 5 composed of M is a control device composed of a ROM storing a program or the like corresponding to the processing procedure shown in FIG. 3 and a CPU executing the processing procedure determined by the program.

The operation of the apparatus shown in FIG. 2 will be described below with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

First, it is determined in step 1 whether a data display request has been made from the keyboard 2. If yes, then in step 2 the corresponding data is read from the storage device 4 and the setting data display 1
Sends the type and data value of the data to be displayed. Next, the display is stored in step 3. Next, it is determined in step 4 whether the data is being displayed. If the data is being displayed, then in step 5 it is determined whether or not there is data input from the keyboard 2. The storage location of the storage device 4 is determined from the type and stored. Then, the display is reset in step 7. Next, at step 8, data values are checked for each type of setting data. If NO in steps 4 and 5, the process proceeds to step 8.

Then, it is determined in step 9 whether or not there is an abnormality. If there is, in step 10, the type and data value of the abnormal data are sent and displayed on the setting data display 1.

Next, in step 11, the setting data display 1 is notified of the presence of an abnormality in order to cause the data to flicker.
Stores the display and returns to step 1.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, the setting screen of the destroyed data is automatically displayed on the setting data display, and the operator is prompted to reenter the data, thereby greatly improving the data recovery work. Can be shortened.
