[16] to [3] in the July day specification field 28 of the “specific date” specification field to which the time pattern is applied
1] and each entry frame in the all day designation column 30 for one month in August. Since this Sunday time pattern is executed only for this year, the “continuation”
Do not mark on the mark entry frame.

As described above, when the program contents are designated on the card 2A, the first circuit (first timer switch circuit)
And the weekly program of the second circuit (second timer switch circuit) is set. In the first circuit, the load operates from 9:00 to 12:00 and from 13:00 to 18:00 from Monday to Friday, and 9 The load operates from hour to 13:00, all days are off on Sunday, and the second circuit operates from 17:00 on Friday to 7:00 on Monday. By setting a weekly program, a time pattern for each day of the week from Sunday to Saturday is automatically created.
The weekly program set in this way is repeatedly executed every week.

On the other hand, when the program contents are specified on the card 2B as described above, January 1, January 15, May 3,
May 5, July 16-July 31, all August, September 1
On the 5th, the 10th of October, and the 3rd of November, the time pattern of Sunday is executed prior to the weekly program. Therefore,
On the “specific day” in which the above-mentioned Sunday time pattern is executed, the first circuit is in the all-day off state, and the second circuit is in the all-day-in state. However, since the annual program is not continued from July 16 to July 31 and all of August, once the time pattern of Sunday is executed, the next year is not executed. Annual programs that are not marked as [success]
Alternatively, the storage of the “specific date” is deleted every week, every month, or every year.

Next, a case where a special time pattern is applied will be described based on an example shown in FIG. FIG. 8 shows an example of an operation in which the time pattern of the first circuit of the special time pattern number 1 is 9 o'clock and the off time is 18 o'clock, and FIG. An example of an operation in which the pattern is set at 8:00 for the entry time and 20:00 for the off time is shown.

First, in the case of FIG. 7, the mark entry frame of [1] of the special time pattern number designation column 21 of the first card 2A is marked, and the mark entry frame of [1] of the circuit number designation column 16 to be operated is set. Since the output of the first circuit is designated to the timer by the weekly program, the output designation column 1
7 [Timer], and in the time designation field 19 of the first timer “ON”, the first place of “hour”

[9] Mark entry frame and tens and

Mark the mark entry frame of [0], and in the time designation field 19 of "OFF" of the first timer, mark the entry frame of the tens place [1] and the first place [8] of "hour", Tenth and first place of "minute"

When the mark in the mark entry frame of [0] is marked, the program designation of the special pattern of the first circuit of special time number 1 is completed. Here, the time every day designation field 20 is not marked.

In the above case, [Timer] in the output designation field 17
However, if the output has already been specified in the weekly program, the mark may be omitted.
Similarly, the sounding time (pulse width and chime) and the sequential activation may not be marked if specified by the weekly program. Next, FIG.
In the case of, while marking the mark entry frame of [1] in the special time pattern number designation field 21 of the first card 2A,
In the circuit number designation field 16 to be operated, the mark entry frame of [2] is marked, and since the second circuit is designated for output to the timer by the weekly program, it is marked for [timer] in the output designation field 17, and the first is designated. Time designation field 19 for the second timer “ON”
Then, place the [8] mark in the first place of “hour” and the tenth place and the first place in “minute”.

Mark the mark entry box of [0], and
In the time designation field 19 of “OFF” of the second timer, the tens place [2] and the first place

[0] mark entry frame and “minute”
Tenth and first place

When the mark in the mark entry frame of [0] is marked, the program designation of the special pattern of the second circuit of the special time bar number 2 is completed. Here, the time every day designation field 20 is not marked.

The special time pattern is created as described above.
Sun, March 1, April 1, May 1, June 1, July 1
An example in which the present invention is applied to “specific days” on the dates of September 1, October 1, November 1, and December 1 will be described with reference to FIG.
Here, of the “special day”, February 1, March 1, April 1,
June 1, July 1, October 1, November 1, and December 1 will be applied repeatedly every year. September 1 of this year and May 1 of next year will be limited to one time only. .

The card shown in FIG. 9 is a second card 2B.
In order to apply the time pattern of special time pattern number 1 repeatedly every year,
Mark entry frame, special time pattern number designation field 24A [1] mark entry frame, and special time pattern number 1 time pattern application field The mark entry frame of [1] in the February day designation column 28, the mark entry frame of [1] in the March day designation column 28, and the mark entry frame of [1] in the April day designation column 28 And the mark entry frame of [1] in the day designation column 28 of June,
The mark entry frame of [1] in the month day designation column 28, the mark entry frame of [1] in the October day designation column 28, and the mark entry frame of [1] in the November day designation column 28, A mark is made in the mark entry frame of [1] in the day designation column 28 for December.

FIG. 10 shows the second card 2B, in which the time pattern of the special time pattern number 1 is applied only to September 1 of this year and May 1 of next year.
Mark entry frame in the special time pattern number designation field 24A of [1], and [1] in the May day designation field 28 of the "specific date" designation field to which the time pattern of the special time pattern number 1 is applied.
, The mark entry frame of [next] in the next year designation column, and the mark entry frame of [1] in the September designation column 28. Since the time pattern of the special time pattern number 1 is executed only on September 1 this year and on May 1 only next year, the mark entry frame of the “continuation” designation column 22 of the annual program continuation designation column 22 is not marked.

When the program contents are designated by the cards 2A and 2B in this manner, February 1, March 1, April 1,
May 1, June 1, July 1, next year, September 1 of this year
On the day, October 1, November 1, and December 1, the time pattern of the special time pattern number 1 is executed with priority over the weekly program. Therefore, the “special day” on which the time pattern of the special time pattern number 1 is executed is 9 for the first time.
From 18:00 to 18:00, the second circuit goes from 8:00 to 2
It stays on until midnight. However, since the annual program is not continued on September 1 of this year and May 1 of next year, once the time pattern of the special time pattern number 1 is executed, the next year is not executed.

The reading of the card 2A or 2B written in this way is performed in the same manner as a conventional card-type program timer. However, the output of each optical sensor whose waveform has been shaped by the card reader 3 is directly input to the signal processing circuit 13 composed of a microcomputer through a comparator circuit in the card reader 3 without passing through a multiplexer.

Next, the overall operation of the embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. First, when the power is turned on, all output signals go to the “H” state, and this state continues except for the signal that is automatically output, and the signal processing circuit 13
And the external RAM 14 are all cleared.
This after clearing, until adjusting switch S ₂ of the operation panel 1 is operated, any other input also not accept, not even if the output.

[0037] When the adjustment switch S ₂ is operated, the process proceeds to the initial mode, initialization is performed to shift to the normal operation. The next timer mode is a mode in which the clock, timer output, and time signal output functions are performed. The clock function includes a function for displaying the current time and a function for causing the date and time to be displayed on the current time display unit 4. The timer output function is a function for outputting a signal of “ON” or “OFF” to the relay drive circuit 7 at a set time according to a preset program.

The time signal output function is a function of outputting a signal of a time set at a set time to a relay drive circuit according to a preset program. Further, the function is to output a signal of a time signal based on a chime sound of a selected music piece at a preset time from the chime unit 8 for a preset time. (Since the chime tune is not specified in the embodiment, there is no output from the chime unit 8.) After entering the timer mode, if there is a time adjustment, the time is adjusted in the time adjustment mode, and the reading operation of the card reader 3 is performed. If there is, after the program mode, the card reader input function, the card reader control function, and the like are activated. The card input function is a function in which the card reader 3 reads a mark written on the cards 2A and 2B, and sets a timer program necessary for a timer operation.

The card reader control function is provided for the card 2
It is a function for controlling a timing signal, a data signal, a control signal for a motor of the card reader 3 and the like when reading a mark written in A and 2B. FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing the contents of the program mode. When the card reading by the card reader is started, the signal processing circuit 13 starts taking the mark, and the card being read is the first card 2A. I mean, the second card 2B
It is determined by the presence or absence of the annual pattern setting card determination mark YM.

In the case of the first card 2A, based on the position of the fetched mark, "ON" is performed according to a preset definition.
A program for a timer function such as time, “off” time, circuit number, circuit conditions, etc. is created, and the created program is stored in the external RAM 14 to complete the setting of the program. In the case of the second card 2B, a program of a timer function corresponding to the type of year, month, day and time pattern of a specific day of the year is defined according to the definition based on the position of the imported mark, and this created. External RAM 14
To complete the program setting. It goes without saying that the program is such that it is possible to determine whether or not there is a mark in the yearly program continuation designation column at the time of creating the program of the timer function, and to determine whether to assign or delete the program after executing the program.

As described above, after the mark is fetched, the program is created and stored. During the fetching of the mark, the following processing may be sequentially performed, or each processing may be performed collectively. They may be combined. The program confirmation mode in FIG. 9 is a mode for confirming the set program. The program set by the timer function is displayed on the current time display section 4 using the operation switch of the operation panel 1.

When the annual program is executed, the mode shifts to the annual program erasure determination mode. FIG. 13 shows a flowchart showing the contents of the annual program erasure determination mode. When the annual program starts to be executed,
Specified time (for example, one day (24 hours), one week, one month,
(1 year) has passed (determined that the specified period has passed, but day change, week change, month change, year change may be used). If the specified period has not passed,
Return to the main routine and determine if there is an executed annual program to be erased if the specified period has elapsed.If there is no executed annual program to be erased, return to the main routine and have an executed annual program to be erased. If so, the executed annual program is deleted and the process returns to the main routine. However, even if the executed annual program is deleted, the first card 2
The time pattern based on the special time pattern number set in A is not deleted.

Further, in the low power consumption mode shown in FIG. 11, when a power failure detection signal is input from the power failure detection circuit 12 to the signal processing circuit 13, the signal processing circuit 13 performs a low power consumption operation on the power source for compensation of the power supply circuit 11. This is an operation mode in which the low power consumption operation is canceled when the power failure detection signal disappears. Next, the display of the current time and the adjustment of the time will be described.

First, since the annual card type program timer of the present invention has a function of setting an annual program, it is necessary to display year, month, day, day of the week, hour, minute, and second for the current time. The display switch S ₁ of the operation panel 1 is
Each time the button is pressed, a signal for switching the display of the current time display unit 4 between the display of the day, hour, minute, and second of the current time as shown in FIG. 14 and the display of the year, month, and day shown in FIG. This is given to the processing circuit 13.

[0045] When the current time, the minute, in the case of performing the adjustment of the second, first displayed day of the week in the switch S _1, hour, minute, and set the display of seconds, the adjustment switch S _2, and when the switch S ₃ the time by pressing and holding the same time, the minutes to press simultaneously the and adjustment switch s ₂ and the minute switch s _4, to adjust the seconds by pressing and holding the same time and an adjustment switch s ₂ and the second switch s _5.

Becomes

The day of the week is automatically set and displayed by adjusting the year, month and day described below. When the simultaneous pressing time is 1 second or longer, the fast-forwarding is performed at 8 Hz while the pressing is performed. Sec. At the time of the adjustment, while pressing the adjustment switch S ₂ and the second switch S ₅ is, in the remains of "00", when you release either of the switch, to start the count, "0
1 "," 02 "," 03 "and so on.

To adjust the current year, month and day, the display of the current time display section 4 is changed to the year, month and day as shown in FIG. 9, and the adjustment switch S ₂ and the hour switch S ₃ are set. the the by pressing and holding the same time a year, and the adjustment switch s _2, a month by pressing and holding the same time and the minute switch s _4, and the adjustment switch s _2, the day the respective adjusted by pressing simultaneously the second switch s _5.
