2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, this type of duplex switching system does not have a configuration in which a central processing unit serving as a standby system outputs a signal by only monitoring a central processing unit of a main system. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, an operation check unit 21 for monitoring both the standby system and the main system is provided for the judgment of the other party's fault, and the system switching of the central processing unit is determined by the operation check unit 21. I was going. That is, the operation check unit 21 always communicates with the central processing unit, checks the operation state of both systems, and switches the system when an abnormality is detected.

As described above, according to the present invention, a centralized monitoring station having duplicated first and second central processing units is connected to a downlink and an uplink to poll a plurality of monitored stations by a polling method. In the redundant switching system of the centralized monitoring system, the centralized monitoring station causes the first and second central processing units to alternately transmit, to the downlink, control information to which transmission source information indicating the transmission source is added. The first and second central processing units receive the response information to which the transmission source information has been added to the control information from the first central processing unit or the presence / absence of the reception from the first and second central processing units. A control means for judging a failure of the first or second central processing unit and stopping transmission of control information from the failed central processing unit to the downlink in the case of a failure of the first or second central processing unit; By having it, the fault detection time and Shorter than conventional switching time of the system, also has an advantage of being able to switch the system while continuing the process at the time of the failure.

1. A duplex switching of a centralized monitoring system in which a centralized monitoring station having duplicated first and second central processing units monitors a plurality of monitored stations connected to a downlink and an uplink by a polling method. In the system, the centralized monitoring station causes the first and second central processing units to alternately transmit control information added with transmission source information indicating a transmission source to the downlink, and the control information from the monitored station. The response information to which the transmission source information is added is received by the first and second central processing units from the first and second central processing units to determine whether the first and second central processing units have received the response information. A failure of the first or second central processing unit is determined, and the first or second central processing unit is determined.
And a control means for stopping the transmission of the control information from the failed central processing unit to the downlink when the failure occurs in the central processing unit.
