  In the on-board working system 10 of this embodiment, each of the on-board working machines provided with a display can display a screen of a display different from the display provided on the display device on the display provided on the display device. .

  First, each of the six mounting modules 42 can display the screen currently displayed on the display 90 included in the mounting module different from itself in the same production line 20 on the display 90 included in the same. ing. Specifically, for example, the mounting module 42a (Module 1) includes the displays 90b, c, and c included in each of the mounting modules 42b (Module 2), c (Module 3), d (Module 4), e (Module 5), and f (Module 6). The screens displayed on d, e, and f can be displayed on the display 90a included in the screen. In a state where the screen shown in FIG. 3A is displayed on the display 90a of the mounting module 42a, it is possible to switch from the display switching button 120 on the screen. For example, FIG. 3B shows a screen in which the screen displayed on the display 90f of the mounting module 42f is displayed on the display 90a. FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B are both parts supply guidance screens.

  When the mounting module 42 displays the screen of the separate display, only the data necessary for displaying the screen displayed on the separate display other than the same data stored in itself is displayed. The information is acquired via the network 52. Specifically, the image data is the same and stored in the ROM 74, as can be understood by comparing FIG. 3A and FIG. That is, when switching from the screen shown in FIG. 3 (a) to the screen shown in FIG. 3 (b), the mounting module 42a receives data and parts indicating that the display screen of the display 90f is a parts supply guide from the mounting module 42f. A numerical value representing the number of feeders that need to be guided to supply, a numerical value 130 representing each slot number of the feeders, a character string 132 representing the feeder type, a character string 134 representing the device type, and a numerical value representing the feeder feed pitch 136, to obtain a numerical value 138 representing the error code that has occurred. Then, the mounting module 42a is configured such that the display screen of the display 90f is displayed on the display 90a provided in the mounting module 42a based on the acquired data and the image data stored in the ROM 74. In other words, according to the present on-board work system 10, since the data to be acquired by communication for displaying the screen of another display is minimized, the time required for communication, and thus the screen of the other display It is possible to shorten the time until display.

  The on-board working system 10 of the present embodiment is configured to switch the screen displayed on the display 90 to another display screen. However, as shown in FIG. The screen of the display 90f may be displayed on a part of the screen.

  In addition, each of the six mounting modules 42 can perform an operation of changing the screen of another display displayed on the display 90 included in the six mounting modules 42. More specifically, each of the six mounting modules 42 receives an operation input for transitioning the screen of another display displayed on the display 90 to a screen of a layer different from the screen. If there is, change the screen displayed on the separate display. At the same time, in order to display the screen after the change of the other display on the screen of the display 90 provided in itself, necessary data is acquired from the one provided with the other display.

Specifically, for example, when the display 90a of the mounting module 42a shown in FIG. 3B is displayed on the display 90a of the mounting module 42a, there is an operation input on the screen. . When one of the two feeder images 150 and 152 displayed in the screen shown in FIG. 3B is selected, detailed information of the selected feeder is displayed. When one of the feeder images 150 and 152 in the screen of the separate display 90f displayed on the display 90a is touched by the operator, the mounting module 42a first contacts the mounting module 42f. A command for changing the screen displayed on the display 90 f to a screen representing detailed information of any of the touched feeder images 150 and 152 is output. At the same time, the mounting module 42a obtains data necessary for displaying the screen after the transition of the display 90f on its display 90a from the mounting module 42f, and displays the screen after the transition of the display 90f on its own. It is displayed on the display 90a.

  Further, each of the six mounting modules 42 displays an image to be displayed on the display 90 provided on the display 90 in the case where a failure that cannot be displayed on the display of the mounting module other than the mounting module 42 occurs. It is possible to display.

  For example, when a firmware related to the display 90 is updated in a certain mounting module 42, there is a possibility that the screen cannot be displayed on the display 90 due to a soft error due to the update failure. Further, for example, there may be a case where the screen cannot be displayed on the display due to a hardware error. Even when such an error occurs, according to the substrate-to-board working system 10, when a display that cannot be displayed due to the error is recovered from a failure, the screen that cannot be displayed on the screen is to be displayed. Can be displayed on another display, for example, information on the failure can be acquired and recovered early.

  As a specific example, a case where a failure that cannot be displayed on the display 90 in the mounting module 42a occurs will be described. When such a failure occurs, the screen to be displayed on the failed display 90a is displayed on a display different from the display 90a on which the failure has occurred, for example, the display 90b of the adjacent mounting module 42b. Therefore, the mounting module 42b is operated by the operator. More specifically, in the mounting module 42b, the operator performs an operation of switching the display 90b included in the mounting module 42b to the screen of the display 90a. Then, for example, a screen of the display 90a as shown in FIG. 5 is displayed on the display 90b of the mounting module 42b. In the case shown in FIG. 5, it is found that a failure that cannot be displayed on the display 90a of the mounting module 42a is a hard error due to a blown fuse, and the failure can be dealt with immediately.

  Note that the mounting module 42b acquires only the error number (Seek Number) 160 and the subcode 162 from the mounting module 42a when displaying the screen of the display 90a shown in FIG. 5 on its display 90b. The mounting module 42b displays the image stored in the ROM 74 on the display 90b based on the error number 160 and the subcode 162.

  Each of the six mounting modules 42 includes not only the screen of the display 90 provided in the mounting module 42 different from itself, but also the devices 24, 26, 34, 36, 38 that are other on-board work machines, and a module integrated controller. 44.
