Description

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a guide device for an electronic device such as a measuring device, and more particularly, to management of a plurality of jobs.

<Conventional Technology> In general, when performing an experimental measurement using a measuring device, a plurality of combinations of experimental conditions are prepared in advance, and an experimental measurement is performed for each combination.

In many cases, the measurer enters and saves various information related to the measurement, such as the procedure, the number of experiments, and the result of the determination, in a check sheet or the like.

In the case of a field experiment or the like, an experimenter may perform an experiment measurement in the field based on an experiment request document of an experiment planner.

<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> However, in the conventional check sheet management, when the number of series of experiment measurements increases, it is difficult to visually grasp the progress of the entire experiment.

Further, depending on the content of the experiment, the work space may be limited, making it difficult to fill out the check sheet, or it may be difficult to read the experiment request document.

The present invention focuses on such a point, and an object of the present invention is to provide a guide device of an electronic device that can visually grasp the status of a plurality of jobs.

<Means for Solving the Problems> The guide device of the present invention includes a display unit that displays various information related to the operation of the device, and a two-dimensional array of a plurality of guide patterns corresponding to a plurality of jobs. A map memory in which map data is stored, a display mode setting key for setting the display mode of the display unit to the guide mode, and a function for changing the display form of the corresponding guide pattern according to the execution status of each job. And a control unit including:

Guide device for electronic devices.

<Operation> On the guide screen, the statuses of a plurality of jobs are two-dimensionally displayed in a matrix in a guide pattern in a display form corresponding to each status.

This allows the operator of the electronic device to visually grasp the status of a plurality of jobs.

<Example> Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a structural explanatory view showing a main part of one embodiment of the present invention,
FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram of a specific example of a display screen, showing an example of a measuring device. In the figure, the display mode of the display unit 1 is set to, for example, a guide mode as shown in FIG. 2 by operating the display mode setting key 2. A guide map A in which a plurality of guide patterns corresponding to a plurality of measurement jobs are two-dimensionally arranged is read from the map memory 3 and displayed on the display screen in the guide mode. As the guide map A of the present embodiment, a maximum of 128 sections for displaying the progress of the measurement job are secured, and the measurement jobs from "01" to "78" are registered. Then, a job for which measurement has been completed is displayed with a guide pattern “■”, a job for which measurement has not been completed is displayed with a guide pattern “□”, and a section where a measurement job has not been registered is displayed with a guide pattern “−”. Of the registered jobs, “01,06 to 09,33” has already been measured. The guide pattern corresponding to the measurement job called by inputting the guide number corresponding to the job with the job designation key 4 is displayed blinking and the job number B is displayed.
The embodiment shows a state in which the measurement job “02” is called. The display screen in the guide mode is provided with a unique comment area C related to the selected measurement job, and the comment area C includes a measurement condition related to the measurement job stored in the comment memory 5. Various kinds of comments such as measurement procedure, precautions, and judgment result are read out and displayed. These comments are inserted, deleted, and corrected by the comment key 6 as necessary. The control unit 7 controls the display mode, selects a map A, selects a job based on the program stored in the program memory 8, the data stored in the memories 3 and 5, and the inputs of the keys 2, 4, and 6. And the display of the number B and the update display control of the comment C are executed. The control key 9 is
Selection of guide number change, comment input, map operation, end of guide mode, etc., display change of the selected guide pattern of the guide map, and the like are performed.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the flow of the operation of the guide display processing. When the display mode setting key 2 is pressed,
It is determined whether the key is a guide mode setting key. When the guide mode setting key is pressed, the operator is prompted to input a guide number for specifying a measurement job. In response, the operator operates the job designation key 4 to input a guide number corresponding to a desired job. When the guide number is input, the pointer is moved to the head of the corresponding area of the comment table stored in the comment memory 5. Also, the data in the map memory 3 is read,
Create an image of the guide map. Then, a guide screen as shown in FIG. 2 is displayed.

While the guide screen as shown in FIG. 2 is displayed, the user is prompted to input a work selection for the next work. In response to this, the operator presses one of the control keys 9 corresponding to the next operation content, and the pressed key is interpreted. When the guide number change key is pressed, the pressing of the job designation key is prompted to change the displayed guide number. When the comment input key is operated, pressing of the comment key is prompted, and insertion, deletion, and correction of the comment are performed.
The comment changed by the operation of the comment key 6 is stored in a corresponding area of the comment table of the comment memory 5 specified by the pointer, and the content is displayed in the comment area C. When the map operation key is operated, pressing of the guide pattern display change key is prompted. By operating the guide pattern display change key, the display state of the measurement job is forcibly changed. As a result, the measurement incomplete is the measurement completion, the measurement completion is the measurement incomplete, new registration is performed, registration is canceled, and the like. When the guide mode end key is operated, the guide mode ends and the display mode returns to, for example, the display mode immediately before the guide mode setting.

With this configuration, when a plurality of measurement jobs are registered, the progress of each measurement job can be grasped at a glance from the display form of the guide pattern forming the guide map.

Also, by providing a comment area for each measurement job, measurement conditions and the like related to each measurement job can be entered, and the measurement work can be performed only by the measurement device without using a conventional check sheet. .

In addition, by utilizing this comment area, if the measurement device has a screen data output function or screen copy function, the procedure for inputting the experiment plan → collecting the experimental data → inputting the evaluation of the experimental results → copying the guide screen Thus, the preparation of an experiment report can be performed with one measuring device.

In the above-described embodiment, an example in which the measurement apparatus manages the measurement job using the guide map has been described. However, for example, in an office electronic apparatus including a display unit and a memory, the area of the memory is divided into a plurality of areas in advance. When inputting fixed data such as an address book into each area, it is also effective in grasping the input state of data into the divided areas at a glance. Here, the memory may be an external memory such as a memory card or a floppy disk that is replaced for each job.

The guide pattern forming the guide map may be displayed in color, and the display color may be changed according to the state.

<Effects of the Invention> As described in detail above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a guide device for an electronic device capable of visually grasping the status of a plurality of jobs.
