  FIG. 4 shows an example of the operating state monitoring screen 30 that the overall monitoring device 20 displays on the display device 13. The operation state monitoring screen 30 includes a layout display unit 31 that displays a layout diagram of gaming equipment, a mark display unit 32 that displays an abnormality mark 41 that indicates the type of abnormality that has occurred in the gaming equipment, and a gaming equipment. And an abnormality content display unit 33 for displaying the content of the abnormality that has occurred.

  The layout display unit 31 displays a layout diagram in which a gaming machine island image 34 simulating the shape of the gaming machine island 60 is arranged according to the arrangement of the gaming machine island 60 in the store. A gaming machine island number is displayed on the left shoulder of each gaming machine island image 34. In addition, a game ball amount level image 35 in which the accumulated flow rate of the game balls in the corresponding game machine island 60 is represented by the length and numerical value of the bar graph is displayed at the center of the game machine island image 34.

  In the gaming machine island image 34 of the gaming machine island 60 having the ball counter 75, a ball counter image 36 simulating the ball counter 75 is displayed at a location corresponding to the installation position (center of island or island edge). The Further, the color of the gaming machine island image 34 itself indicates the occurrence of an abnormality on the gaming machine island 60 corresponding to the gaming machine island image 34. Here, when a “heavy error” that must stop the operation of the gaming machine island 60 has occurred, a “light error” that allows the operation of the gaming machine island 60 to continue is displayed in red (indicated by horizontal stripes in the figure). When it occurs, it is displayed in yellow (indicated by diagonal lines in the figure), and in normal conditions, it is displayed in green (indicated by solid color in the figure). When the gaming machine islands 60 are connected by a transfer path for delivering game balls, a transfer path image 37 is displayed between the corresponding gaming machine island image 34 and the gaming machine island image 34.

  In the mark display unit 32, an abnormality mark 41 indicating the occurrence of an abnormality is displayed for all abnormalities that are occurring. Here, the abnormality mark 41 is a small circular mark. There are two types of abnormalities: “major error” and “light error”. That is, the type of abnormality indicates the level (severity) of the abnormality. Here, in the case of “heavy error”, the abnormality mark 41 is displayed in red (gray in the drawing), and in the case of “light error”, the abnormality mark 41 is displayed in yellow (in the drawing, white). Note that the level of abnormality may be further classified into three or more levels.

  The mark display unit 32 displays an abnormality mark 41 for each abnormality that is currently occurring. Accordingly, the number of abnormality marks 41 being displayed represents the number of abnormality that is currently occurring. The mark display unit 32 displays the abnormality mark 41 in the order from the oldest occurrence time of abnormality from the left end.

  On the abnormality content display unit 33, messages indicating the content of the abnormality corresponding to the abnormality mark 41 displayed on the mark display unit 32 are sequentially displayed in a telop. The display order follows the arrangement order from the left end of the mark display section 32.

  In addition, the abnormality mark 41 a that is displaying the abnormality content on the abnormality content display unit 33 is identified and displayed so that it can be distinguished from other abnormality marks 41. Here, the abnormality mark 41a corresponding to the display of the abnormality content on the abnormality content display unit 33 is identified and displayed by bordering. Therefore, the contents of the abnormality displayed on the abnormality content display section 33 are sequentially displayed as the border display is cycled to the abnormality mark 41d at the right end, and the border display is repeated again by returning to the abnormality mark 41c at the left end. The

  In the operating state monitoring screen 30 shown in FIG. 4, by looking at the mark display unit 32, it can be seen that a total of seven abnormalities are currently occurring, and three of them are “major errors”. Further, it can be recognized that the abnormality content currently displayed on the abnormality content display unit 33 corresponds to the third abnormality mark 41 a from the left end of the mark display unit 32. Further, it can be seen that the content of the abnormality corresponding to the sixth abnormality mark 41b from the left end displayed on the mark display unit 32 is displayed on the abnormality content display unit 33 for the third time thereafter.

  In addition, the abnormality content display unit 33 displays the gaming machine island number (“04” in the figure) where the abnormality occurred together with the content of the abnormality. By referring to the layout display unit 31 in the same screen, It can be recognized in the gaming machine island 60 at which place in the amusement store that abnormality has occurred.

  In this way, by making the occurrence of an abnormality small like the abnormality mark 41 and displaying them in the order of the occurrence of the abnormality, the display area can be reduced, and a limited space can be displayed like a history. Is possible. Further, when displaying sequentially, it is not possible to confirm all the contents of the currently occurring abnormality until the display is completed, but the abnormality mark 41 indicating the type of abnormality is displayed for all the abnormalities occurring. Therefore, it is possible to instantly grasp the number of occurrences of abnormalities and the presence or absence of “major errors”.

  Further, when a “major error” has occurred, it is possible to instantly grasp what number of the abnormality content is displayed on the abnormality content display unit 33 from the present time. Therefore, employees can determine whether to wait until the content of “serious error” is displayed, or whether to proceed with other work before it is displayed, thereby reducing unnecessary waiting time. The

  FIG. 5 shows the data structure of the error table 50 created by the monitoring processing unit 23 to perform the display as described above. The error table 50 is for registering error information indicating the contents of each abnormality that is occurring, and the error table 50 is registered closer to the top (upper in the figure) of the error table 50 as the occurrence time is older.

  The error information includes an error number indicating the content of the abnormality, an error level indicating whether the abnormality is a “major error” or “light error”, a gaming machine island number, and a device number indicating the gaming facility device in which the abnormality has occurred. Consists of

  FIG. 6 shows a flow of abnormality information update processing mainly performed by the monitoring processing unit 23 of the overall monitoring apparatus 20. This process is repeatedly executed at a predetermined cycle. The monitoring processing unit 23 collects state information from each island monitoring device 11 (step S101), and determines whether or not a new abnormality has occurred (step S102). When a new abnormality has occurred (step S102; Y), error information relating to the newly generated abnormality is additionally registered at the end of the error table 50 (step S103). Further, an abnormality mark corresponding to the level of the abnormality newly generated this time is additionally displayed at the right end of the abnormality mark displayed on the mark display unit 32 (step S104). Further, the display color of the gaming machine island image 34 corresponding to the gaming machine island in which the abnormality has occurred is changed to a color corresponding to the level of the abnormality (step S105).

  After that, or when no new abnormality has occurred (step S102; N), it is determined whether or not any abnormality that has already occurred has been recovered (step S106). If there is no restoration (step S106; N), this process is terminated (end).

  If there is a recovered abnormality (step S106; Y), the corresponding error information is deleted from the error table 50, and the registration position of the error information registered behind the deleted part is moved one by one toward the top. Are aligned in the upper order (step S107).

  Furthermore, the display of the abnormality mark corresponding to the deleted error information is deleted from the mark display unit 32, and the abnormality mark 41 displayed on the mark display unit 32 is aligned left justified (step S108). Further, the color of the gaming machine island image 34 corresponding to the gaming machine island whose abnormality has been restored is returned to the normal color (step S109), and this processing is ended (END). However, if other abnormalities remain on the same gaming machine island after recovery, the gaming machine island image 34 is displayed in a color corresponding to the level of the abnormality.

  FIG. 7 shows the flow of display update processing mainly performed by the display processing unit 22 of the overall monitoring apparatus 20. First, layout data is read out from the database 25 and a layout diagram is created and displayed on the layout display unit 31 of the display device 13 (step S201). The game ball amount level image 35 and the like displayed on the layout display unit 31 are updated at a predetermined cycle by other processing.

  Next, the monitoring processing unit 23 sets a reading pointer indicating a reading position when reading error information from the error table 50 at the head of the error table 50 (step S202), and error information is registered at the position indicated by the reading pointer. It is checked whether it has been done (step S203). If error information is registered (step S203; Y), the abnormal mark in the mark display unit 32 whose rank from the left is the same as the rank from the top of the current read pointer is changed to a border display (step S204). . For example, when the read pointer indicates the second from the top of the error table 50, the second abnormal mark from the left in the mark display unit 32 is changed to a border display.

  Next, the content of the abnormality is displayed on the abnormality content display unit 33 according to the error information registered at the position indicated by the current read pointer (step S205). For example, in FIG. 5, when the read pointer indicates the second position from the top of the error table 50, a telop including an abnormal message corresponding to the error number “001” and the gaming machine island number “05” is displayed as the abnormal content. The data is displayed on the display unit 33. When the display of the telop related to this abnormality is completed, the border display applied to the abnormality mark having the same rank as the current reading pointer is canceled (step S206).

  Thereafter, the read pointer is advanced to the next position (step S207), the process returns to step S203, and it is determined whether or not error information is registered at the position indicated by the updated read pointer. If registered, the processing shown in steps S204 to S207 is executed based on the error information registered at the position indicated by the updated read pointer. If the next error information is not registered (step S203; N), the process returns to step S202, the read pointer is set again at the head of the error table 50, and the above processing is repeated. When no error information is registered in the error table 50, Step S202 and Step S203 are repeated.

  By such processing, the abnormality contents corresponding to the abnormality mark 41 are sequentially displayed on the abnormality content display section 33 in order from the abnormality mark 41 on the left end of the mark display section 32, and the abnormality content display section 33 is displayed. The abnormality mark 41a displaying the contents of the abnormality is displayed by being distinguished by bordering.

  FIG. 8 shows another example of the operating state monitoring screen. In the operating state monitoring screen 30a, when displaying the content of the abnormality corresponding to the “major error” on the abnormality content display unit 33, the display form of the abnormality content display unit 33 is different from the case of displaying “light error”. I'm allowed. For example, the color usage is highlighted, the background color is changed, or the background is blinked. In addition, the display time for displaying the content of the abnormality corresponding to the “major error” on the abnormality content display unit 33 is longer than when displaying the “light error”. In accordance with this, the time during which the corresponding abnormality mark 41a is displayed separately from other abnormality marks by bordering or the like is also increased.

  Further, on the operation state monitoring screen 30a shown in FIG. 8, the location of the abnormality corresponding to the abnormality mark 41 whose abnormality content is displayed on the abnormality content display unit 33 is displayed in an identifiable manner in the layout diagram. Here, the color of the gaming machine island image 34a at the location where the abnormality has occurred is a special color. Instead of color, identification display may be performed by blinking display or bordering.

  The embodiment of the present invention has been described with reference to the drawings. However, the specific configuration is not limited to that shown in the embodiment, and there are changes and additions within the scope of the present invention. Are also included in the present invention.

  For example, the display form of the layout diagram is not limited to that illustrated in the embodiment, but may be any form that can grasp the arrangement of the gaming equipment in the gaming store. Further, it is not necessary to accurately represent the arrangement in the amusement store, and it may be of a level that allows the outline arrangement to be understood.

  Further, the shape and arrangement of the abnormality marks 41 are not limited to those illustrated in the embodiment. For example, the abnormality mark may be a symbol or a design. Further, although the color of the abnormality mark 41 is changed depending on the type of abnormality, the shape may be changed. For example, “heavy error” may be displayed with an x mark and “light error” may be displayed with a triangle mark. The arrangement of the abnormality mark may not be in the order of the occurrence of the abnormality. For example, the game machine island numbers may be arranged in ascending order.

  In addition, as shown in the embodiment, the method of making the display form of the abnormality mark whose abnormality content is displayed on the abnormality content display unit 33 different from the display form of other abnormality marks is not only trimming but also trimming. A method of further blinking the edge portion, blinking the abnormality mark itself, changing the color, or changing the shape may be used. Alternatively, the abnormal mark itself may be identified and displayed by a method of displaying an arrow indicating the corresponding abnormal mark or changing the background color of the abnormal mark without changing the abnormal mark itself.

  The method of sequentially displaying the content of the abnormality on the abnormality content display unit 33 is not limited to the method of flowing a telop, but a so-called blending that changes so that the next display content rises when it disappears like a scroll display or smoke. Display may be used.

  In the embodiment, the gaming facility device installed on the gaming machine island 60 is a monitoring target. However, any gaming facility device installed in a gaming store may be used, and an gaming machine island 60 such as an information providing device for a player may be used. Other gaming equipment that does not belong to may be included in the monitoring target.
