In addition, a necessary announcement is notified from the speaker 54.

  When a plurality of receivers 51 simultaneously receive the signal of one tag identification code 102, the reception operation of the receiver 51 at the position closest to the person to be managed is activated, that is, the highest level signal. The receiving operation of the receiver 51 is invalidated. When the receiver 51 receives an emergency signal from the wireless tag 11, the display units 39 and 40 of the terminals 33 and 34 are switched to a display indicating an emergency (physical condition of the managed person). At the same time, a required controller 53 is selected by the main terminal 33, and an announcement indicating an emergency situation is notified from the speaker 54 by the operation of the selected controller 53.

  In the database 43 of the server 32, rewritable files 101, 111, 121A, 121B, 131, 141 shown in FIGS. Therefore, the contents of these files 101, 111, 121A, 121B, 131, 141 will be described.

FIG. 5 shows the tag identification file 101. The tag identification file 101 lists each tag identification code 102 of the wireless tag 11 prepared for the managed person.
FIG. 6 shows an employee file 111 of a facility as a manager. Here, the employee includes not only the employee (employee) of the company that manages the facility, but also various occupations and affiliations such as an employee of a different company that goes in and out of the facility and a self-employed person. In this employee file 111, the personal identification code 112 of the managed person is stored. Corresponding to each personal identification code 112, the name 113 of the managed person who is the person corresponding to the personal identification code 112, the sex 114 of the managed person, and the tag type 115 as the classification information of the managed person (in the figure) The attributes 116 of the managed person are stored. This attribute 116 includes the company name, department, job type, etc. of the managed person. The tag type 115 of the managed person is determined in advance according to the affiliated company, responsibility, and the like. Then, data of the photograph 117 of the manager is stored in the field corresponding to the personal identification code 112.

  FIG. 7 shows a tag type file 121A for classifying managed persons. In the tag type file 121A, the tag type 115 is stored, and constraint information 124 imposed on the manager of each tag type 115 is stored. The constraint information 124 is a group of a plurality of constraint items 123 having different contents for each tag type 115. In other words, in the tag type file 121A, grouped constraint information 124 having different contents is set corresponding to each tag type 115. The restriction item 123 indicates a place such as a room, a passage or an entrance / exit where a managed person of each tag type 115 can pass (enter). In addition, as a restriction item, it may be possible to set a place where the person to be managed is prohibited from entering, or to set both a place where entry is permitted and a place where the person is prohibited.

  In the file 121B of FIG. 8, the tag type 115, the name 226 indicating the grouping type set for each tag type 115, and the valid start time and valid end time set for each tag type 115 are described. Yes. Here, the effective end time from the effective start time is a time zone in one day. The valid start time is the time when the outgoing signal from the wireless tag 11 of the managed person grouped according to the tag type 115 is valid, and the valid end time is the time when the outgoing signal becomes invalid. And when a transmission signal is effective, authentication of a management person is performed by the transmission signal, and various facilities of a facility are operated according to restrictions. When the outgoing signal becomes invalid, the signal is ignored and no authentication or the like is performed.

  FIG. 9 shows a setting file 131 that is set when the wireless tag 11 is distributed. In the setting file 131, the tag identification code 102 is stored, and the start date and time 103 and the end date and time 104 of the movement deadline described above are stored corresponding to the tag identification code 102. In the setting file 131, the personal identification code 112 and the name 113 of the manager to whom the wireless tag 11 is distributed are stored in association with the tag identification code 102, and the tag corresponding to the personal identification code 112 is stored. The type 115 is stored. Further, restriction information 124 including restriction items 123 determined by the tag type 115 is stored corresponding to the tag type 115. In addition, an attribute 116 and a photograph 117 are stored corresponding to the personal identification code 112. When the managed person is a visitor of the facility, the tag identification code 102 of the wireless tag 11 to be distributed and the tag type 115 dedicated to the visitor are assigned, and the name 113, the attribute 116, and the photograph 117 are not stored. . That is, in the setting file 131, the tag identification code 102 of the wireless tag 11 and necessary information required for management of the managed person to whom the wireless tag 11 is distributed are set. The attribute 116 includes a facility entry date and time for each managed person. For example, if the managed person is an employee of the facility, Monday to Friday is the entry permission date, and the visitor has a predetermined specific day as the entry permission date.

  FIG. 10 shows the history file 141. The history file 141 is provided for each personal identification code 112 (or name 113), that is, for each managed person to whom the wireless tag 11 has been distributed. Each history file 141 stores the date and time when the tag identification code 102 was detected by the antenna 52.

  Next, functions of the management system configured as described above will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The flowchart of FIG. 11 shows a routine in which a program stored in the storage unit 38 of the main terminal 33 is executed under the control of the control unit 36.

  At the normal time before the wireless tag 11 is distributed and before the managed person is registered, in the step S (hereinafter simply referred to as S) 1 in FIG. 11, the first page screen 201 for management shown in FIG. Is always displayed on the display unit 39 of the main terminal 33. The first page screen 201 shows a floor plan 202 in which a room, a passage, or an entrance of each floor in the facility is drawn. Although not shown, the floor plan 202 displays the antenna 52, the slide door, the door, and the like at the corresponding positions, and displays the current state regarding whether the slide door and the door are opened or closed.

  The wireless tag 11 owned by the managed person in the facility transmits a signal of the tag identification code 102 every second, and the signal is received by the antenna 52 of the management system. Then, the position of the antenna 52 that has received the strongest signal is highlighted on the screen 201 as the position of the person to be managed. Therefore, the administrator can always grasp the presence / absence of the location of the managed person and the location.

  Next, when the wireless tag 11 is distributed to an employee who enters the building, an employee of another company, a visitor or the like, the administrator who operates the main terminal 33 relates to the administrator. Data is registered in association with the wireless tag 11.

  That is, when a predetermined key of the main terminal 33 is operated in S2 of FIG. 11, the main terminal 33 and the server 32 are switched to the registration mode. In S3, a dialog box 211 shown in FIG. 13 appears on the screen 201 by a pop-up operation using animation processing. Therefore, in S4, when the administrator inputs his / her administrator code and password as the user ID, access to the database 43 by the main terminal 33 is permitted.

  Next, in S5, a wireless tag designation screen (not shown in the drawing) appears on the screen 201. In S5, the administrator performs registration work for the required wireless tag 11. In this way, the tag identification code 102 of the new wireless tag 11 is transferred to the database 43 and stored in the tag identification file 101 shown in FIG. Next, by selecting the tag identification code 102 of one wireless tag 11 from the tag identification file 101 and selecting the personal identification code 112 of one managed person from the employee file 111 shown in FIG. Through S6 and S7, a registration screen 221 shown in FIG. 14 appears on the screen 201, and the wireless tag 11 and data for one managed person to whom the wireless tag 11 is distributed are displayed. In accordance with this input screen, the administrator designates the personal identification code 112 of the managed person who will be the owner of the wireless tag 11 to be distributed in S8. The registration screen 221 includes a photo box 222, a tag information box 225, a basic information box 224, and a confirmation box 241. In the photo box 222, a photo 117 of the designated manager is displayed together with its name 113.

  In the tag information box 225, the tag identification code 102 of the designated wireless tag 11, the start date 103 and the end date 104 of the operation expiration date of the wireless tag 11 are displayed. The start date and time 103 and the end date and time 104 can be rewritten by selecting a pull-down menu.

  In this way, the personal identification code 112, the name 113, the tag type 115, and the restriction item 123 of the designated manager are grouped from the employee file 111 in FIG. 6 and the tag type file 121A in FIG. The constraint information 124, the managed person's attribute 116, and the photograph 117 are further transferred from the grouping file 121B in FIG. 8 to the grouping name 226 to the setting file 131. These data are tag identification as shown in FIG. Corresponding to the code 102, it is stored in the same file 131. Accordingly, the setting file 131 is set with information on the wireless tag 11 distributed to the managed person, tag type 115 related to the managed person, and information such as the restriction information 124 corresponding to the tag type 115.

  The basic information box 224 includes a grouping name 226 such as a company name of the designated person, an employee classification 227, an external company name (if the managed person is not a facility management company) 228, an employee A code 229, an affiliation code 230, a name 113 including a furigana, and a gender 114 are displayed.

  Furthermore, in the confirmation box 241 shown in FIGS. 14 and 15, all the restriction items 123 included in all the tag types 115 and check boxes 242 corresponding to the respective restriction items 123 are displayed. A check mark 242 for displaying the restriction item 123 in the restriction information 124 corresponding to the tag type 115 of the managed person is given a check mark. Accordingly, in this confirmation box 241, the administrator can confirm the contents of the current setting and the future setting of the restriction item 123 for each managed person.

  When the restriction item 123 set by the selected tag type is changed, the check box 242 is unchecked or the check box is added in S11 in the routine for S9 to S12. The setting file 131 is rewritten so that the restriction item 123 of the restriction information 124 for the administrator is increased or decreased. Therefore, it is possible to set the restriction item 123 according to the responsibility of the manager.

  When the managed person is a visitor, the tag type 115 given only to the visitor and the restriction item 123 are transferred and set corresponding to the tag type 115. If the managed person is a visitor, only a visitor is displayed in the name 226 field of the basic information box 224, and no other information is displayed in the basic information box 224.

  In this way, when the administrator performs a predetermined key operation in S9 after the setting work is completed or in a state where the restriction item 123 is not changed, the registration mode is ended in S10 and the contents of the setting file 131 are changed. Confirmed.

  Thereafter, the managed person who owns the wireless tag 11 acts inside and outside the facility, so that the radio wave from the wireless tag 11 is captured by the antenna 52. For this reason, when the managed person enters a place not set by the restriction 123, the human sensor 58 is activated based on the reception of the tag identification code 102, and the human sensor 58 detects the managed person. Doors etc. are opened, and entry of the manager is permitted. Further, when the managed person tries to enter a place restricted by the restriction item 123, the door is closed and entry is prohibited. In this way, the behavior of the managed person is managed.

  Further, since the wireless tag 11 transmits the tag identification code 102 every second, the tag identification code 102 is captured by the antenna 52, and the location of the managed person who owns the tag identification code 102 is grasped. Then, the data is stored as a history in the history file 141 for each name 113 of the managed person.

Further, when changing the contents of the existing data in the setting file 131, the basic information and the tag information are changed after the registration screen 221 is displayed as described above.
In addition, the tag information box 225 is provided with a check box 223 for reservation. By assigning a check mark to the check box 223, the above-described various settings for the manager can be reserved at an arbitrary date and time. it can. Then, by assigning a check mark to the check box 223, the confirmation box 241 switches to the state shown in FIG. 15, and the increase / decrease change of the restriction item 123 can be executed in the confirmation box 241 as described above.

Therefore, this embodiment has the following effects.
(1) When a wireless tag 11 is distributed, if a managed person is specified, restriction information 124 in which restriction items 123 according to the tag type 115 of the managed person are grouped is set. For this reason, it is possible to save the trouble of setting the restriction items 123 one by one for different managers.

  (2) When changing the restriction item 123 of the managed away person, the content of the check box 242 in the confirmation box 241 may be changed. Therefore, the restriction item 123 can be changed very easily.

  (3) By checking the check box 223 of the tag information box 225, it is possible to reserve the date and time when the wireless tag 11 starts and ends. Therefore, it is possible to execute the registration work of the manager in advance at a convenient time.

  (4) Since the start and stop of the wireless tag 11 are executed at the time set on the registration screen 221, it is possible to prevent the managed person from erroneously stopping or starting the wireless tag. For this reason, appropriate management can be performed.

  (5) Since there are a plurality of pieces of the restriction information 124 stored in the database 43, it is possible to select and set the restriction information 124 having different contents of the restriction items 123. In this way, it is possible to set appropriate constraint information 124 according to the managed person.

(6) Since the restriction item 123 indicates a place where the facility can enter, it is effective for security management in the facility.
(7) When the antenna 52 receives the tag identification code 102, the location of the managed person can be grasped, so that the managed person can be appropriately managed. In addition, since the behavior history of the managed person can be recorded in the history file 141, it is possible to help when some problem occurs.

(8) The effective operation period of the wireless tag 11 can be set for each tag type 115, which is preferable in terms of security.
(9) By assigning a check mark to the check box 223 for reservation, the wireless tag 11 can reserve the start of operation at a future date and time. Therefore, restrictions can be set in advance in accordance with the change in the affiliation of the manager. For this reason, it is possible to prevent concentration of restriction setting work from being concentrated at one time.

(10) If a plurality of alarm management terminals 34 are installed, alarm management can be performed simultaneously at a plurality of locations.
