Therefore, the inventor of the present invention has intensively researched and developed about making it easy to edit the parameters of the industrial device control device in the parameter editing device, and invented a new and creative parameter editing device etc. Hereinafter, the preferred embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.

[1. Overall Configuration of Industrial Equipment Control System]
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an entire configuration of an industrial device control system including a parameter editing device according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the industrial device control system 1 includes a parameter editing device 10, a motor control device 20, and a servo mechanism 30. Here, although these are shown one by one, there may be a plurality of each. The parameter editing device 10 and the motor control device 20 are connected by a communication cable 40 so as to be able to transmit and receive data, and the motor control device 20 and the servo mechanism 30 are connected by a power cable 50 so as to be able to supply power.

  The parameter editing device 10 is a computer operated by a user, and may be, for example, a personal computer or a portable terminal (for example, a tablet terminal or a smartphone). As shown in FIG. 1, the parameter editing device 10 includes a control unit 11, a storage unit 12, a communication unit 13, an operation unit 14, and a display unit 15.

  The control unit 11 includes at least one processor. The control unit 11 executes processing in accordance with programs and data stored in the storage unit 12. The storage unit 12 includes a main storage unit and an auxiliary storage unit. For example, the main storage unit is a volatile memory such as a RAM, and the auxiliary storage unit is a non-volatile memory such as a hard disk or a flash memory. The communication unit 13 is a communication interface for wired communication or wireless communication, and performs data communication via a network. The operation unit 14 is an input device for the user to operate, and is, for example, a pointing device such as a touch panel or a mouse, a keyboard, or the like. The operation unit 14 transmits the content of the operation by the user to the control unit 11. The display unit 15 is, for example, a liquid crystal display unit or an organic EL display unit. The display unit 15 displays a screen according to an instruction of the control unit 11.

  The motor control device 20 is an example of an industrial device control device, and the servo mechanism 30 is an example of an industrial device. The industrial apparatus is an apparatus used in an industrial robot or FA (Factory Automation), and may be, for example, various sensors such as a servo motor, an encoder, a torque sensor, or a servo mechanism including these. Furthermore, the industrial device control device may be any device that directly or indirectly controls the industrial device, and may be, for example, a servo amplifier, an inverter, a host device of the servo amplifier, or a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller). .

  In the present embodiment, a case where the motor control device 20 and the servo mechanism 30 are connected by the power cable 50 and the motor control device 20 directly controls the servo mechanism 30 will be described as an example. For example, the motor control device 20 is a servo amplifier that controls the power supplied to the servo mechanism 30, and includes a control unit 21, a storage unit 22, a communication unit 23, and a power supply unit 24. The hardware configurations of the control unit 21, the storage unit 22, and the communication unit 23 may be the same as those of the control unit 11, the storage unit 12, and the communication unit 23, respectively. The power supply unit 24 outputs power to the servo mechanism 30 including one or more servomotors via the power cable 50. The power cable 50 is also called a power line, and outputs, for example, three-phase AC power. The motor control device 20 outputs power to the servo mechanism 30 using the power cable 50, and directly controls the rotation of the servo motor in the servo mechanism 30.

  Motor control device 20 may control servo mechanism 30 indirectly. In this case, for example, the motor control device 20 is an upper device of a servo amplifier connected between itself and the servo mechanism 30, and is also called a motion controller. When the motor control device 20 is a host device of the servo amplifier, the motor control device 20 transmits an instruction to the servo amplifier, and the servo amplifier 30 performs servo mechanism 30 based on the instruction received from the motor control device 20. Control the power for

  Further, the programs and data described as being stored in the storage units 12 and 22 may be supplied via a network. The hardware configurations of the parameter editing device 10 and the motor control device 20 are not limited to the above example, and various hardware may be applied. For example, the parameter editing device 10 and the motor control device 20 may be a reading unit (for example, an optical disk drive or a memory card slot) that reads a computer readable information storage medium, and an input / output unit (for example, a USB port) for communicating with an external device. May be included. For example, a program or data stored in an information storage medium may be supplied via a reading unit or an input / output unit.

[2. Outline of Processing of Industrial Equipment Control System]
Next, an outline of processing executed in the industrial device control system 1 will be described. In the industrial device control system 1, parameters of the motor control device 20 can be edited in a table format using the table editing function of the support tool installed in the parameter editing device 10. The support tool is an application for assisting in setting up, commissioning, and troubleshooting of the motor control device 20. The table editing function is one of a plurality of functions that the support tool has. Here, although the case where the support tool is started in a state where the parameter editing device 10 and the motor control device 20 are physically connected by the communication cable 40 will be described, the support tool is not connected even when these are not connected. It is bootable. That is, even in the offline state, the user can use the support tool to edit parameters and the like. When the user operates the parameter editing apparatus 10 to activate the support tool, a menu screen is displayed on the display unit 15.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the menu screen. As shown in FIG. 2, the menu screen G1 is a screen for transitioning to a screen corresponding to each function of the support tool. For example, when the user selects the connection button G1A, communication between the parameter editing device 10 and the motor control device 20 is established. On the other hand, when the user selects the disconnect button G1B, the communication between the parameter editing device 10 and the motor control device 20 is disconnected.

  Further, the model name G1C of the motor control device 20 is displayed on the menu screen G1. The model indicates the type of motor control device 20 that is determined based on the difference in the configuration and specifications of the motor control device 20, and is represented by a symbol string including numbers and characters. For example, the model is given a unique model number, and the model can be determined by the model number. However, the difference in the detailed specifications such as the firmware of the motor control device 20 and the customization item in the customized product may not be distinguishable from the model. Further, on the menu screen G1, an axis list G1D indicating one or more axes corresponding to the motor control device 20 is displayed. In the example of FIG. 2, two axes are shown in the axis list G1D, one of which is displayed with the name of “A axis” and the other is displayed with the name of “B axis”.

  The menu screen G1 also displays functional images G1E1 to G1E9 corresponding to the respective functions available to the support tool. The functional images G1E1 to G1E9 are displayed for each function such as trial operation and troubleshooting which the support tool has, and here, particularly, the functional image G1E8 corresponding to a table editing function for editing parameters in a table format is described Do. For example, in the functional image G1E8, a list of functions (for example, fixed point passing output function and the like) that the motor control device 20 has is displayed. The function name is displayed on the function image G1E8 in order to make the parameter corresponding to each function editable in the table corresponding to the function. For example, when the user selects “Function X” displayed in the function image G1E8, a table editing screen corresponding to the function is displayed on the display unit 15.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the table editing screen. As shown in FIG. 3, the table editing screen G2 is a screen for editing parameters using the table. For example, a tab G2A including the model name of the motor control device 20 is displayed on the table editing screen G2, and buttons G2B1 to G2B8 for executing processing such as reading and writing of parameters are displayed in the tab G2A. The button G2B1 is a button for reading all the parameters of the motor control device 20. The buttons G2B2 to G2B4 are buttons for writing the edited parameter in the storage unit 22 of the motor control device 20. For example, it may be possible to select which of the parameter being edited, all parameters, or the parameter stored in the flash memory of the storage unit 22 is to be written. The buttons G2B5 and G2B6 are buttons for reading a file stored in the storage unit 22 of the motor control device 20 and writing a file created by the parameter editing device 10 in the storage unit 22. The button G2B7 is a button for storing compressed data of the file, and the button G2B8 is a button for executing processing relating to other table editing functions in general.

  Further, a table display area G2C for displaying a table is displayed on the table editing screen G2. In the table display area G2C, a table (grid) in which cells are arranged in a grid is displayed, and in each cell, the name and value of a parameter are displayed. As shown in FIG. 3, in the case of the motor controller 20 of a plurality of axes, in the table display area G2C, to select whether to edit common parameters for all axes or to edit different parameters for each axis Tabs G2D1 to G2D3 are displayed. Hereinafter, these are collectively referred to simply as a tab G2D.

  The tab G2D1 is selected when setting common parameters for all axes, and the tabs G2D2 and G2D3 are selected when setting different parameters for each axis. For example, when the user selects the tab G2D1, parameters of values common to the A axis and the B axis can be edited in one table. On the other hand, when the user selects the tab G2D2, a table for editing parameters for the A axis can be displayed, and when the user selects the tab G2D3, a table for editing parameters for the B axis can be displayed. The number of tabs G2D may be an arbitrary number of one or more, and may be determined automatically according to the number of axes that motor control device 20 has, for example, or the user may tab from table editing screen G2 The number of G2D may be specified. Hereinafter, an example of a screen when the tab G2D1 is selected will be described.

  The tab G2D1 can further include a plurality of tabs G2E1 to G2E3. Hereinafter, these are collectively referred to simply as tab G2E. The number of tabs G2E may be any number of one or more, and may be automatically determined according to the function being selected, for example, so that the user can specify the number of tabs G2E from the table editing screen G2 You may The tab G2E defines the editing unit (unit of each table) of the parameter, and the type of parameter displayed in the data display area G2F differs according to the tab G2E selected by the user, and the layout of the grid Are different.

  The screen example shown in FIG. 3 shows a state in which the tab G2E1 is selected. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, in the data display area G2F, a table for setting parameters is displayed. Here, in the first line, the texts of headings related to the parameters (“output 1” and “output 2”) are displayed. On the second and subsequent lines, editable parameters (four parameters of “parameter 1” to “parameter 4” in FIG. 3) are displayed in the current tab G2E1. In the first column, the name of each parameter is displayed, and in the second and subsequent columns, the parameter value is displayed. The user can edit the parameter by inputting the value of the parameter to the displayed cell. In the example of FIG. 3, “parameter 2” to “parameter 4” are mutually associated parameters, and a common heading “selection of output function” is displayed.

  As described above, the user can edit four parameters “parameter 1” to “parameter 4” related to the function X from the data display area G2F in the tab G2E1. In addition, when the user selects the tab G2E2 or the tab G2E3, the display of the data display area G2F is updated, and editing of other parameters related to the function X becomes possible.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the table editing screen G2 when the tab G2E2 is selected. As shown in FIG. 4, when the tab G2E2 is selected, it becomes possible to edit parameters (in FIG. 4, "parameter 10" to "parameter 15" etc.) different from the parameters corresponding to the tab G2E1. If the entire table can not be displayed in the data display area G2F, scrolling may be performed.

  As shown in FIG. 4, in the data display area G2F, parameters may be continuously displayed not in the row direction (horizontal direction) as described in FIG. 3 but in the column direction (vertical direction). For example, when editing parameters consisting of a large number of values, if parameters are displayed continuously in the column direction, the parameters are input while scrolling up and down using the wheel of the mouse of the operation unit 14 Users, it is easier to set parameters. When the tab G2E3 is selected, a table of the layout corresponding to the tab G2E3 is displayed in the data display area G2F. The editable parameters when the tab G2E3 is selected are different from the editable parameters in the tab G2E1 or G2E2.

  As described above, in the industrial device control system 1, parameters can be edited in a table format on the table editing screen G 2, and the layout thereof corresponds to the model of the motor control device 20. That is, the industrial device control system 1 has a configuration in which parameters can be edited with a different layout for each model of the motor control device 20. Hereinafter, the details of the configuration will be described.

[3. Functions Implemented by Industrial Equipment Control System]
FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing functions implemented by the industrial device control system 1. Here, functions implemented by the motor control device 20 will be described first, and then functions implemented by the parameter editing device 10 will be described. The description of the function for controlling the servo mechanism 30 by the motor control device 20 and the function other than the table editing function of the parameter editing device 10 will be omitted here.

[3-1. Functions Implemented by Motor Controller]
As shown in FIG. 5, in the motor control device 20, a data storage unit 200 is realized. The data storage unit 200 is realized by the storage unit 22. The data storage unit 200 stores various data such as data for controlling the motor and data regarding the motor control device 20 itself. For example, the data storage unit 200 stores a plurality of parameters. The parameter is a parameter for controlling the servomechanism 30. For example, the motor control device 20 controls the power to be output to the servomechanism 30 via the power cable 50 based on the parameter. That is, the motor control device 20 controls the servo mechanism 30 based on each parameter stored in the data storage unit 200.

  Each of the plurality of parameters may have different data sizes from one another, but in the present embodiment, it is assumed that the data sizes of the individual values are equal to one another. For example, the data size of each parameter is fixed at n (n is a positive integer) bytes. Therefore, each data size can be known in advance without preparing information for identifying the data size for each parameter.

  The number and types of parameters stored in the data storage unit 200 may be common to all models, but in the present embodiment, the case where the number and types of parameters are determined in accordance with the model will be described. Further, although the address (address of the memory) in which the parameter is stored may be common to all models, in the present embodiment, the case where the address in which the parameter is stored is also determined according to the model will be described. For example, since which parameter is stored in which address differs depending on the model, information for identifying which parameter is stored in which address is prepared for each model. Hereinafter, this information is referred to as model information. In the model information, information such as the address of the parameter is stored in association with the parameter ID for uniquely identifying the parameter.

  For example, the data storage unit 200 may store model information corresponding to the model of the own device. As model information, information unique to the model may be stored, and information other than the type and address of the parameter described above may be stored. For example, the data type of the parameter, the maximum value, or the minimum value may be stored in the device type information. In addition, for example, the model information may include information other than information on parameters, and may include, for example, information on axes. The parameter and the model information may be stored in the data storage unit 200 as the same file, or may be stored in the data storage unit 200 as separate files.

  The data stored in the data storage unit 200 is not limited to the above example. For example, the data storage unit 200 includes individual identification information (for example, a serial number) of the motor control device 20, function identification information identifying a function of the motor control device 20, a program for motor control and its version information, and a storage unit. The data size of the file that can be written to 22 may be stored. Furthermore, the data storage unit 200 may store table layout information described later.

[3-2. Functions Implemented in Parameter Editing Device]
As shown in FIG. 5, in the parameter editing device 10, a database storage unit 100, a parameter acquisition unit 101, a table layout information acquisition unit 102, a language information acquisition unit 103, an address information acquisition unit 104, a parameter editing unit 105, a parameter writing unit The identifier acquisition unit 107, the layout editing unit 108, the file writing unit 109, and the writing restriction unit 110 are realized. The database storage unit 100 is mainly realized by the storage unit 12, and the other functions are mainly realized by the control unit 11.

[Database storage unit]
The database storage unit 100 stores a database related to support tools. Here, a model information database will be described as an example. For example, the model information described above is stored in the model information database for each model of the motor control device 20. The data storage unit 200 of the motor control device 20 only needs to store only the model information corresponding to the model of the own machine in principle, but the parameter editing device 10 performs maintenance of the motor control device 20 of various models. The database storage unit 100 of the parameter editing device 10 stores at least model information corresponding to a model to be subjected to maintenance. Therefore, model information of each of a plurality of models is stored in a model information database. As a result, the address at which the parameter edited by the parameter editing device 10 is stored can be identified.

  Also, for example, the database storage unit 100 stores table layout information. The table layout information may be stored as part of the model information database, may be stored as an external file associated with the model information database, or may be stored as data unrelated to the model information database. It may be The table layout information is a file in which the layout of the table in the table editing screen G2 is defined. For example, table layout information defines types of editable parameters and display positions of parameters (for example, rows, columns, or cells themselves) in the table editing screen G2. Specifically, the table format of the table (Form of grid), parameter IDs of parameters to be displayed, rows or columns to be displayed, etc. are defined. In the present embodiment, since the layout can be different for each model, the database storage unit 100 stores table layout information corresponding to each model. When the motor control device 20 of a certain model has a plurality of functions, the layout may be different for each function. In this case, the database storage unit 100 stores table layout information corresponding to each function. It will be done.

  6 and 7 are diagrams showing an example of data storage of table layout information. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the case where the table layout information is in xml format will be described here, but it is sufficient if the table layout can be defined, and data other than markup language such as xml is used You may Therefore, the data format of the table layout information may be any data format other than the xml format. 6 and 7 show an example of data storage for displaying the table editing screen G2 shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. That is, the table layout information of FIGS. 6 and 7 is an example of table layout information corresponding to the function X of the model described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. Further, in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, for convenience of explanation, the number of lines in which each element is described is shown at the left end, but in actuality, this numerical value may not be included in the table layout information.

  For example, in the first line, an element of “Frames num” indicating the number of tabs G2D is described. In the case of the layout example of FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, since three tabs G2D1 to G2D3 exist, "Frames num" becomes "3". The layout of the table display area G2C is defined between “Frames num” on the first line and an element (70th line) where “/ Frames” appears next.

  The layouts of the tabs G2D1 to G2D3 are defined in the second and subsequent lines. Of these three, "Frame no" indicates which layout is defined. For example, the layout of the tab G2D1 is defined between an element (line 2) in which "Frame no" is "0" and an element (line 63) in which "/ Frame" appears next. Similarly, the layout of the tab G2D2 is defined between an element (line 64) with a "frame no" of "1" and an element (line 66) where a "/ frame" appears next, The layout of the tab G2D3 is defined between an element with “Frame no” “2” (line 67) and an element with “/ Frame” appearing next (line 69). As shown in FIG. 7, in order to simplify the description, the method of defining the layout of the tab G2D1 will be described here, and the method of defining the layout of the tabs G2D2 and G2D3 will be omitted.

  When the layout description of the tab G2D1 is started on the second line, as shown on the third line, an element of "Tables num" indicating the number of tabs G2E included in the tab G2D1 is described. Here, since there are three tabs G2E1 to G2E3, "Tables num" is "3".

  On and after the fourth line, the layout of each of the tabs G2E1 to G2E3 is defined. Of these three, which layout is defined is indicated by an element of "Table no". For example, the layout of the tab G2E1 is defined between an element (line 4) in which "Table no" is "0" and an element (line 26) in which "/ Table" appears next. Similarly, the layout of the tab G2E2 is defined between an element (line 27) having "table no" of "1" and an element (line 58) where "/ Table" appears next, The layout of the tab G2E3 is defined between an element (line 59) having "table no" of "2" and an element (line 61) where "/ table" appears next. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, in order to simplify the description, the method of defining the layout of the tabs G2E1 and G2E2 will be described here, and the method of defining the layout of the tab G2E3 will be omitted.

  As shown in the fourth line, the heading displayed on the tab G2E1 can be defined by "label ID". The “label ID” is a label ID uniquely indicating the text displayed on the table editing screen G2, and the relationship between the label ID and the text is defined in language information described later. For example, as shown in the fourth line, if the label ID is "1", the text of "setting 1" is displayed as shown in the tab G2E1 of FIG.

  Also, as shown in the fourth row, the display format of the row layout in which parameters are continuously displayed in a specific row, or the display format of a column layout in which parameters are continuously displayed in a specific column Can be defined by "layout". In the row layout, as shown in FIG. 3, the values of certain parameters are displayed continuously in the right direction, and in the column layout, the values of certain parameters are displayed continuously in the downward direction, as shown in FIG. Be done. For example, if the value of “layout” is “row”, it indicates that it is a row layout, and if “layout” is “column”, it indicates that it is a column layout. As shown in FIG. 3, since the tab G2E1 is a row layout, as shown in the fourth row of FIG. 6, "layout" is "row". Further, the total number of rows constituting the table of the tab G2E1 can be defined by "rowsNum", and the total number of columns can be defined by "colsNum".

  In the fifth and subsequent lines, which parameter is to be displayed is defined in each line in the tab G2E1 which is a line layout. As shown on the fifth, tenth, and fifteenth lines of FIG. 6, the number of rows in the table is indicated by “Rows no”. Here, the first row of the table displayed in the data display area G2F in FIG. 3 is an element where “Rows no” is “0” (fifth row) and an element where “/ Rows” appears next (9) It is defined between lines) and In addition, the second row of the table is defined between an element in which “Rows no” is “1” (10th line) and an element in which “/ Rows” appears next (14th line). Similarly, the third row of the table is defined between the element (row 15) in which "Rows no" is "2" and the element (row 25) in which "/ Rows" appears next .

  Although it is not necessary to subdivide one line as in the first and second lines of the table of FIG. 3, a layout in which one line is subdivided is also possible as in the third line of FIG. Because it is possible to include multiple rows in one row), the number of rows (divided rows) that each row of the table includes, such as the fifth row, the tenth row, and the fifteenth row in FIG. Can be defined by "num". For example, if the line is not subdivided as in the first and second lines of the table of FIG. 3, “num” becomes “1” as in the fifth and tenth lines of FIG. If the row is subdivided into three as in the third row of the table of 3, the "num" becomes "3" as in the fifteenth row of FIG. The subdivided rows can be defined by "Row no", as shown in lines 16, 19 and 22 of FIG.

  Moreover, what is displayed as a heading in each line can be described in the above-mentioned "labelId". For example, if “labelId” is “2” as in the sixth line of FIG. 6, the texts of “output 1” and “output 2” are displayed as shown in the first line of the table of FIG. Ru. Note that it is possible to use incremental text in which numbers included in part of the text are automatically incremented, and as shown in the first line of the table in FIG. 3, m of "output m" according to the number of columns The integer is incremented. Further, for example, if “labelId” is “3” as in the 15th line of FIG. 6, the text of “output function selection” is displayed as shown in the 3rd line of the table of FIG.

  Further, as shown in the 11th, 16th, 19th, and 22nd lines of FIG. 6, what parameter is displayed on each line can be described in “parameterId”. In “parameterId”, a parameter ID to be displayed in the row is indicated. In the present embodiment, since the parameter name is stored in the model information, in the heading of the line for displaying the parameter, the parameter name stored in the model information (in the example of FIG. The text of parameter 4 "is used. In addition, the element of "Cells /" means displaying a value in the cell corresponding to each row.

  As described above, the layout in the tab G2E1 is defined on the 2nd to 26th lines. As shown on the 27th to 58th lines of FIG. 7, the layout definition in the tab G2E2 is also the same. However, as shown in FIG. 4, since the table in the tab G2E2 is a column layout, as shown in the 27th row, "layout" becomes "colomn", and the layout of each column is defined thereafter. In the method of defining the layout of the tab G2E2, the descriptions of “row” and “row” described in the method of defining the tab G2E1 may be replaced with “colum” and “column”.

  As described above, for example, the table layout information includes format information indicating whether each of the plurality of parameters is to be displayed continuously in either a row or a column of the table. The format information is information for identifying whether it is a column layout or a row layout, and is specified here by the value of an element including “layout”. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the value of “layout” corresponds to the format information. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, “layout” is defined for each table (that is, for each display unit of data display area G2F. In other words, for each tab G2E). .

  Also, for example, the table layout information includes display position information regarding the display position of each of the plurality of parameters in the table. The display position information indicates a row or column for displaying each parameter in the grid of the data display area G2F. For example, in the case of a row layout, a row in which each parameter is displayed is shown as display position information, and in the case of a column layout, a column in which each parameter is displayed is shown as display position information. In the example of data storage in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, in the case of row layout (FIG. 6), “Row no” indicates on which row the parameter is displayed by “Row no”, and in the case of column layout (FIG. 7) “Column no” indicates in which column the is displayed. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the value of "Row no" or "Column no" corresponds to the display position information.

  Also, for example, the table layout information further includes group information indicating parameters belonging to the same group among the plurality of parameters. A group is a collection of correlated parameters. In other words, the groups are groups displayed in association with each other on the table editing screen G2. For example, in the case where each of a plurality of parameters is displayed together under one heading, the plurality of parameters will belong to the same group. In the case of the screen example of FIG. 3, since “parameter 2” to “parameter 4” are grouped into one heading, these three belong to the same group. Similarly, in the case of the screen example of FIG. 4, “parameter 11” to “parameter 14” are grouped into one heading, so these four belong to the same group. As described above, in the case of the row layout, parameters belonging to the same group are shown between “Rows no” and “/ Rows”, and in the case of the column layout, the parameters belonging to the same group are “Columns no” From "/ Columns" is shown. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the value of "Row no" described between "Rows no" and "/ Rows", or "Column no" described between "Columns no" and "/ Columns". The value of "corresponds to the group information. If it is not necessary to group parameters in particular, the table layout information may not contain group information.

  In the present embodiment, since a plurality of tabs can be set in the table display area G2C, the table layout information includes tab layout information individually indicating the layout of each of the plurality of tabs. For example, since the layout of the table can be made different for each tab, the layout information may include tab layout information as many as the number of tabs. For example, when three tabs G2E are prepared for every three tabs G2D, the table layout information may include nine tab layout information. The tab layout information includes at least one of the format information, the display position information, and the group information described above. In this embodiment, the element between “Frame no” and “/ Frame” corresponds to the tabbed layout information of tab G2D, and the element between “Table no” and “/ Table” is tab G2E. Corresponds to the tabbed layout information. In the case where only one data display area G2F is used without using a plurality of tabs in particular, the table layout information may not include tab layout information.

  In the present embodiment, since the motor control device 20 has a plurality of functions, the table layout information is different for each function of the motor control device 20. For example, when the motor control device 20 has the function X and the function Y, table layout information for the function X and table layout information for the function Y may be stored in the database storage unit 100. Although the table layout information for the function X has been described with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7, the table layout information in the same data format may be stored in the database storage unit 100 for the function Y as well. In other words, the function of the motor control device 20 and the table layout information may be in a one-to-one relationship. When the motor control device 20 has only a single function, the table layout information may be only one.

  The table layout information described above is an example, and the table layout information is not limited to the above example. For example, when a color is given to a cell or a value in the cell, the table layout information may include color information, or the cell width may be definable by the table layout information. Also, for example, information indicating the type of cell (for example, whether it is editable or not) or the type of tab (for example, common to all axes or separate for each axis) may be included in the table layout information . In addition, various information on the appearance of the table may be included in the table layout information.

  Further, the data stored in the database storage unit 100 is not limited to the above example. For example, the database storage unit 100 may store language information in addition to the model information database and the table layout information described above. The language information is a file that stores, for each language, text indicating a header such as a header or a fixed column described in table layout information. Although the case where the parameter name is included in the model information has been described in the present embodiment, the parameter name may be included in the language information. For example, texts displayed in the table may be prepared as language information for each language such as Japanese, English, Chinese, Korean and the like. Besides, for example, the database storage unit 100 may store help information. The help information is a file that guides the user on how to set parameters. Similar to language files, help contents are prepared for each language.

[Parameter acquisition unit]
The parameter acquisition unit 101 acquires a plurality of parameters of the motor control device 20. For example, the parameter acquisition unit 101 acquires each parameter from the data storage unit 200 of the motor control device 20. As described above, in the present embodiment, since the address of the parameter is determined for each model, the parameter acquisition unit 101 identifies the address where each parameter is stored based on the model information, and refers to the address. Will get the parameters. For example, the parameter acquiring unit 101 may acquire a parameter in response to the button G2B1 of the table editing screen G2 being selected, or when the menu screen G1 or the table editing screen G2 is displayed, or the support tool is activated. Parameters may be acquired at other timings, as in the case where it occurs. In addition, for example, the parameter acquisition unit 101 may automatically acquire a parameter when the parameter editing device 10 and the motor control device 20 are connected. Furthermore, the parameter acquisition unit 101 may acquire all the parameters of the motor control device 20, or may select and acquire only the parameters necessary for displaying on the table editing screen G2.

  When the parameter is stored in a computer other than the motor control device 20 for the purpose of backup or the like, the parameter acquisition unit 101 may acquire the parameter stored in the computer. The computer may be, for example, a server connected to the parameter editing device 10 via a network, or may be the parameter editing device 10 itself.

The table layout information corresponding to is to be acquired. The model of the motor control device 20 may be acquired from the data storage unit 200 of the motor control device 20 or may be designated from the operation unit 14 by the user.

  When the table layout information is stored in a computer other than the parameter editing device 10, the table layout information acquisition unit 102 may acquire the table layout information stored in the computer. The computer may be, for example, a server connected to the parameter editing device 10 via a network, or may be a motor control device 20.

[Language Information Acquisition Department]
The language information acquisition unit 103 acquires, for each of a plurality of languages, language information that stores text to be displayed on a table. In the present embodiment, since the language information is stored in the database storage unit 100, the language information acquisition unit 103 refers to the database storage unit 100 to acquire language information. The information for identifying the language used by the user may be stored in advance in the database storage unit 100 or may be designated by the user when the support tool is activated. Furthermore, information identifying the language used by the user may be included in the model information, or may be stored in a memory in the motor control device 20 or in another computer.

  When the language information is stored in a computer other than the parameter editing device 10, the language information acquisition unit 103 may acquire the language information stored in the computer. The computer may be, for example, a server connected to the parameter editing device 10 via a network, or may be a motor control device 20.

[Address information acquisition unit]
The address information acquisition unit 104 acquires address information corresponding to the model of the motor control device 20. The address information is an address at which each parameter is stored in the motor control device 20, and in the present embodiment, since the address information is included in the model information, the address information acquisition unit 104 uses the database storage unit 100. Address information will be acquired by reference. As described above, the model of the motor control device 20 may be acquired from the data storage unit 200 of the motor control device 20 or may be designated from the operation unit 14 by the user.

  When the address information is stored in a computer other than the parameter editing device 10, the address information acquisition unit 104 may acquire the address information stored in the computer. The computer may be, for example, a server connected to the parameter editing device 10 via a network, or may be a motor control device 20.

[Parameter Editor]
The parameter editing unit 105 causes the display unit 15 to display a table for editing the plurality of parameters based on the plurality of parameters and the table layout information. The parameter editing unit 105 causes the table editing screen G2 to display the parameters acquired by the parameter acquiring unit 101 in the layout acquired by the table layout information acquiring unit 102. In other words, the parameter editing unit 105 determines the type of parameter to be displayed in the data display area G2F and the position thereof. As described above, in the present embodiment, since the table layout information is described in the xml format, the parameter editing unit 105 sets the parameter ID indicated in “parameterId” of the table layout information to “layout”. In the form shown, it will be displayed in the row or column indicated in "Rows no", "Row no", "Columns no", or "Column no".

  More specifically, in the present embodiment, since the table layout information includes format information (for example, the value of “layout”), for example, the parameter editing unit 105 can set the row or column of the table based on the format information. In any case, each of the plurality of parameters is displayed continuously. The parameter editing unit 105 specifies the row layout or the column layout by referring to the value of “layout” which is an example of the format information. Then, for example, the parameter editing unit 105 displays the value of the parameter stored at the first address in the first cell of the row or column (that is, the cell next to the cell in which the index of the parameter name is displayed). Display the value stored at the next address in the next cell. Thereafter, in the same manner, the parameter editing unit 105 causes the parameter values to be displayed continuously in the same row or in the same column based on the address order. For example, in the case of a column layout, information that defines the address targeted by the cell following the header (header) and how many offsets (bytes) the cell immediately below is from the address, and how many lines it lasts May be stored in the database storage unit 100. This information may be assigned parameter IDs. Therefore, referring to the database storage unit 100, which address each cell corresponds to is uniquely determined, and which cell on the table is to display the parameter acquired from the motor control device 20. It has become identifiable.

  In the present embodiment, since the table layout information includes group information (for example, an element between “Rows” and “/ Rows”, etc.), for example, the parameter editing unit 105 uses a table based on the group information. Display the parameters belonging to the same group in an identifiable manner. “Identifiable” may be a mode in which belonging to the same group can be visually recognized on the table editing screen G2, and in the present embodiment, a common heading is displayed in the same cell. The parameters belonging to the same group may be identifiable by making the colors of the cells the same, or they may be distinguishable by making the colors of the numerical values the same. For example, the parameter editing unit 105 sets a parameter in which a parameter ID is described between “Rows” and “/ Rows”, or a parameter in which a parameter ID is described between “Colomns” and “/ Colomns”. It will be identified as the same group. As described above, the parameter editing unit 105 causes the parameters of the same group to display the common heading indicated in “labelId”.

  In the present embodiment, since the language used by the user can be selected, for example, the parameter editing unit 105 causes the table to display the text of the language selected from the plurality of languages based on the language information. The parameter editing unit 105 refers to the language information, acquires the text of the language selected by the user, and causes the data display area G2F to display a heading.

  In the present embodiment, since the table layout information includes tab layout information (for example, an element between “Frame” and “Frame /”, etc.), for example, the parameter editing unit 105 is based on the tab layout information. To display the tab selected from the plurality of tabs. For example, since the tab layout information may include format information, display position information, and group information, a method of causing the parameter editing unit 105 to display the data display area G2F based on the tab layout information Is the same as the method described above.

  In the present embodiment, since the address at which each parameter is stored is defined in the address information in the model information, for example, the parameter editing unit 105 causes the table to display the parameter based on the address information. The parameter editing unit 105 specifies where the parameter to be displayed on the table editing screen G2 is stored based on the address information, and causes the data display area G2F to display the value of the specified parameter.

  In the present embodiment, for example, the user can select the function of editing the parameter from the menu screen G1 by selecting the function displayed in the functional image G1E8. A table for editing a plurality of parameters corresponding to the selected function is displayed based on the table layout information corresponding to the function selected among the functions of (4).

In the present embodiment, when the user selects one of the buttons G2B to G2B4, the parameter writing unit 106 writes a plurality of parameters edited in the table. In addition, the address which writes a parameter shall be specified by a model information database.

[Identifier acquisition unit]
The identifier acquisition unit 107 acquires an identifier corresponding to each of the plurality of functions. The identifier is indicated by a symbol string such as numbers and characters, and may be, for example, all or part of a file name, or an extension name. In the present embodiment, the case where the extension name corresponds to an identifier will be described. Therefore, the location described as the extension name in the following description can be read as another identifier such as a file name. The identifier acquisition unit 107 specifies the function of the motor control device 20, and acquires the extension name corresponding to the function.

  In the present embodiment, the extension name of the file is different for each function. That is, the extension of the file corresponding to a certain function X is different from the extension of the file corresponding to the other function Y. In the file corresponding to each function, a parameter corresponding to the function may be stored, or table layout information or model information may be stored. The relationship between the model and the extension may be stored in the database storage unit 100. In this relationship, different extensions are defined for each model.

[Layout editor]
The layout editing unit 108 edits the table layout information based on the layout editing operation of the table. Layout editing operations are operations that specify whether to use a row layout or a column layout, an operation that specifies which row or column in which each parameter is displayed, and an operation that groups a plurality of parameters. is there. These operations may be performed on the table editing screen G2, or may be operations for directly editing the values of the table layout information (for example, operations for rewriting each element). The relationship between the layout editing operation and the layout specified by the layout editing operation may be stored in the database storage unit 100 in advance.

  For example, when the user designates a row layout, the layout editing unit 108 sets format information as the value of the row layout (for example, “layout” is “row”), and when the user designates a column layout, the format information Is the row layout value (eg, "layout" is "row"). For example, when the user designates a parameter to be edited in the table, the layout editing unit 108 adds the parameter ID of the parameter to the table layout information. Further, for example, when the user designates a position where the parameter is to be displayed, the layout editing unit 108 sets the value of the display position information (for example, a value such as “Rows no”) as the designated position. Further, for example, when the layout editing unit 108 designates a parameter that the user desires to group, the value of the group information (for example, an element between “Rows” and “/ Rows”, etc.) It is a parameter ID. For example, when the user adds or deletes a tab G2D or G2E, the layout editing unit 108 adds or deletes tab layout information (for example, an element between “Frame” and “Frame /”, etc.) To

[File writer]
The file writing unit 109 writes a file including a plurality of parameters edited in the table in the storage unit 22 in the motor control device 20. For example, when the button G2B5 is selected on the table editing screen G2, the file writing unit 109 may write the file. The file may be written when other buttons G2B2 to G2B4 are selected, or may be automatically written each time a predetermined time passes. In the present embodiment, since the extension name of the file is different for each function, the file writing unit 109 causes the storage unit 22 in the motor control device 20 to select a selected function including a plurality of parameters edited in the table. It will write a file with the corresponding extension name.

  The file writing unit 109 generates a file based on a predetermined method. The file generation method may be stored in the database storage unit 100. For example, based on the parameter being edited, the file writing unit 109 may generate a file corresponding to the model being edited. In this case, the data size of the file may be determined based on the editing content (for example, the number of rows, the number of columns, etc.) on the table editing screen G2.

[Write limit unit]
The write restriction unit 110 restricts the writing by the file writing unit 109 when the data size of the file and the data size of the data storage unit 200 allocated for the file are different. Note that the data size of the file may be changed at any timing, for example, when the program (firmware) of the motor control device 20 is updated. In addition, the data size of the data storage unit 200 allocated for the file may be stored in advance in the data storage unit 200.

  For example, the write restriction unit 110 compares the data size of the file based on the editing content of the table editing screen with the data size of the storage unit 22 allocated for the file. For example, when the two match, the writing by the file writing unit 109 is not limited, and when the two do not match, the writing by the file writing unit 109 is limited. The writing restriction unit 110 may cause the display unit 15 to display an image inquiring whether or not the file is to be written when the data sizes do not match. If the user selects to write the file to this image, the file writing unit 109 executes writing, and if the user selects not to write the file, the write restriction unit 110 does not write the file. You may do so.

The value of the latest parameter may be written in the storage unit 22 of the motor control device 20 in real time, but here, the value of the parameter being edited is temporarily held in the storage unit 12 and the button G2B2 When G2B5 etc. is selected, it shall be written in storage part 22 of motor control device 20.

  On the other hand, when the layout change operation is performed in S6 (S6; change operation), the process moves to FIG. 9, and the control unit 11 updates the table layout information so as to become the layout specified by the user (S9). In S9, the control unit 11 updates the display of the table display area G2C based on the updated table layout information. The layout change method based on the table layout information is as described above.

  On the other hand, when the button G2B5 is selected in S6 (S6; button G2B5), the control unit 11 acquires an extension corresponding to the model of the motor control device 20 (S10). The relationship between the model and the extension is stored in the storage unit 12. In S10, the control unit 11 acquires the extension corresponding to the model of the motor control device 20.

  The control unit 11 generates a file including the parameter being edited, based on the extension acquired at S10 and the content being edited on the table editing screen G2 (S11). In S11, the control unit 11 generates a file including the parameters held in the storage unit 12, and adds a predetermined file name and the extension acquired in S10 to the file.

  The control unit 11 acquires the data size of the file from the motor control device 20 (S12). As described above, in the storage unit 22 of the motor control device 20, the data size of the area reserved for file storage is determined in advance, and the data size of the storage area is the storage unit of the motor control device 20. It shall be stored in advance in 22. In S12, the control unit 11 transmits the acquisition request of the data size to the motor control device 20, and acquires the data size transmitted by the motor control device 20 in response to the acquisition request. Note that this data size may be stored in advance in the storage unit 12 of the parameter editing device 10.

  The control unit 11 determines whether the data size of the file generated in S11 matches the data size acquired in S12 (S13). In principle, the file writing is provided when the data sizes completely match, but even if the data sizes do not completely match, a certain degree of error may be allowed. For example, if the difference is about several bytes, it may be regarded as a match.

  If it is determined that the data sizes do not match (S13; N), the file generated in S11 is not written to the motor control device 20, and the process returns to S5. In this case, the process of S14 described later will not be performed. On the other hand, when it is determined that the data sizes match (S13; Y), the control unit 11 writes the file generated in S11 in the storage unit 22 of the motor control device 20 (S14). In S14, the control unit 11 transmits a write command together with the file to the motor control device 20, and the motor control device 20 receives the command and writes the received file over the storage unit 22 for writing.

  In addition, in S6, when other operation is performed (S6; other operation), the control part 11 performs the process according to operation (S15). For example, when any of the buttons G2B2 to G2B4 is selected, the control unit 11 executes a process of writing a parameter in the motor control device 20. In addition, processing corresponding to an operation that can be input from the table editing screen G2 may be executed.

  In S6, when the operation to end parameter editing is performed (S6; end), the process returns to S2. In addition, in S2, when other operation is performed (S2; other operation), the control part 11 performs the process according to operation (S16). In S16, a trial run of the motor control device 20 may be performed according to the operation of the user. When a predetermined ending operation is input in S2 (S2: ending operation), the present process ends.

  According to the parameter editing device 10 described above, parameters can be edited in a layout table according to the model of the motor control device 20, and parameters of the motor control device 20 can be easily edited. For example, even if the parameters set in accordance with the model are different, parameter editing can be performed in a layout table according to the model, so that a user-friendly GUI can be provided to the user.

  In addition, since the column layout or the row layout can be defined in the table layout information, in the case where the parameter includes a plurality of values, whether to display continuously in a certain row or continuously in a certain column Can be defined in table layout information. That is, parameters can be displayed in a desired format, and parameter editing work can be facilitated. Further, since display position information can be defined in the table layout information, display positions of the respective parameters can be defined in the table layout information. Therefore, the parameter can be displayed at an arbitrary position in the table, and it becomes easy to edit the parameter. Further, by including group information in the table layout information, parameter editing work can be performed in a state in which parameters belonging to the same group can be identified, so parameter editing work can be facilitated.

  Further, by displaying a heading or the like based on the language information, parameter editing work can be performed with a character string corresponding to an arbitrary language displayed on the table. In addition, by making the table include a plurality of tabs, it is possible to divide parameters into multiple tabs and perform editing work of parameters, and it is possible to make the layout different for each tab, making it easy to edit parameters. Become. Further, since the user can edit table layout information, it is possible to change the table for editing parameters to a desired layout. Further, by including the address information in the model information, when the address at which the parameter is stored differs depending on the model, the parameter to be edited can be read and displayed on the table. Further, by preparing table layout information for each function, when the motor control device 20 has a plurality of functions, parameters relating to each function can be edited with a layout corresponding to the functions. .

  In addition, when the motor control device 20 has a plurality of functions, when storing the table layout information of a certain function by storing the table layout information with the extension corresponding to the function, the table layout information of another function is stored. Can be prevented from being accidentally overwritten. In addition, when the file is written to the motor control device 20, it is possible to prevent the edited parameter from being reflected accurately by determining the matching of the data size. Furthermore, by making the individual data sizes of the parameters the same, processing speed can be improved without having to refer to the individual data sizes. In addition, if the data size is incorrect, the value may change and the data may be broken. However, since the data size is common to a plurality of parameters, it is possible to prevent the data from being broken.

[5. Modified example]
The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment.

  (1) For example, when the user uses a plurality of parameter editing devices 10, the table layout information stored in one parameter editing device 10 is not stored in another parameter editing device 10. Sometimes. Besides, for example, if it is possible to newly add a function to the motor control device 20 of a certain model, the parameter editing device 10 may not store table layout information corresponding to the function. . In this case, the parameter editing device 10 may obtain table layout information from the storage unit 22 or the like of the motor control device 20 and add the table layout information to its own storage unit 12. That is, the parameter editing apparatus 10 may automatically add on when it detects table layout information not stored in itself. Furthermore, the fact that table layout information has been added may be identifiable on the menu screen G1.

  FIG. 10 is a functional block diagram of the modification (1). As shown in FIG. 10, in the present modification, in the parameter editing device 10, a selection acquisition unit 111, a table layout information addition unit 112, and a display control unit 113 are realized. These functions are implemented mainly by the control unit 11. Also in this modification, as described in the embodiment, the database storage unit 100 may store a database storing a plurality of table layout information respectively corresponding to a plurality of models of the motor control device 20.

  The selection acquisition unit 111 selectively acquires table layout information. Note that “to acquire selectively” means to determine the presence or absence of acquisition for each piece of information, and to acquire based on the determination result. For example, a plurality of table layout information are stored in an external device (for example, the motor control device 20) other than the parameter editing device 10, and acquiring part of them based on necessity is selectively acquired Equivalent to For example, even if single table layout information is stored in an external device, it is equivalent to selectively acquiring whether it is necessary to determine whether the table layout information is necessary or not. Do.

  The determination as to the presence or absence of acquisition of table layout information may be made based on predetermined conditions. For example, when the parameter editing device 10 is connected to an external device such as the motor control device 20, the selection acquisition unit 111 transmits a reference request for table layout information stored in the external device, and the selection request unit 111 responds to the reference request. It is determined whether the acquired table layout information is stored in the database storage unit 100. If there is table layout information not stored in the database storage unit 100, the selection acquisition unit 111 may selectively acquire the table layout information.

  The table layout information adding unit 112 individually adds the acquired table layout information to the database. The table layout information addition unit 112 adds the table layout information selectively acquired by the selection acquisition unit 111 to the database storage unit 100. Thus, the parameter editing unit 105 can edit parameters based on the added table layout information.

  When the table layout information is added to the database, the display control unit 113 adds, to the menu screen G1 displayed on the display unit 15, information for transitioning to a screen on which the table is displayed. The information may be a character string indicating the model name or function name to which the table layout information is added, or may be an image or icon indicating the model name or function name. For example, not only can add-on table layout information, but also add-on information that can call a function, and a specific name can be displayed on the menu screen G1, so a generic name can be used. In addition, setting items can be clarified.

  FIG. 11 is a diagram showing changes in the menu screen G1 when table layout information is added. As shown in FIG. 11, when the table layout information corresponding to the function Z is added, the display control unit 113 adds the function Z to the list G1E8. When the function Z is selected, a table editing screen G2 based on the table layout information corresponding to the function Z is displayed. The display method of the table editing screen G2 is as described in the embodiment.

  According to the modification (1), when adding table layout information, it is not necessary to add table layout information for unnecessary models, and it is possible to reduce the amount of information required for addition, and add table layout information・ It is possible to increase the freedom of updating. Further, when table layout information is added to the database, it can be grasped from the menu screen G1 and it can transition to a screen for editing parameters in a table based on the added table layout information.

  Further, for example, when connected to the motor control device 20 to which the parameter editing device 10 has not been connected yet, the device information may not be stored in the device information database. In this case, model information may be acquired from the storage unit 22 or the like of the motor control device 20 and added to the model information database. That is, as with the table layout information described in the modification (1), a mechanism may be provided in which external information is added to model information as well.

  (2) Also, for example, the devices or computers constituting the industrial device control system are not limited to the example of FIG. The industrial device control system may include other devices or computers. For example, the industrial device control system 1 may include a management server that centrally manages data such as parameters and model information. Then, in the embodiment, data described as being stored in the parameter editing device 10 or the motor control device 20 may be acquired from the management server.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram showing an entire configuration of the industrial device control system 1 in the modification (2). As shown in FIG. 12, the management server 60 is connected to the parameter editing apparatus 10 so as to be able to transmit and receive data via a network such as the Internet or an intranet. When the motor control device 20 can be connected to the network, the management server 60 and the motor control device 20 may directly communicate with each other.

  The management server 60 is a server computer, and may be, for example, a server used for cloud computing. A control unit 61, a storage unit 62, and a communication unit 63 are included. The hardware configurations of the control unit 61, the storage unit 62, and the communication unit 63 may be the same as those of the control unit 11, the storage unit 12, and the communication unit 13, respectively. The management server 60 centrally manages data related to a plurality of motor control devices 20. For example, the storage unit 62 may store data regarding parameters or software set in each motor control device 20. In this case, the storage unit 62 stores data relating to parameters and software for each of the individual identification information (serial number) of the motor control device 20. Further, for example, the storage unit 62 may store data related to settings at the time of shipping of the motor control device 20. For example, the storage unit 62 may store table layout information, language information, and help information for each model. Further, for example, the storage unit 62 may store a master database of a model information database. It is assumed that model information corresponding to all models is stored in the master database.

  For example, the parameter acquisition unit 101 may acquire the parameter stored in the storage unit 62 of the management server 60. In this case, the parameter acquisition unit 101 transmits the individual identification information of the motor control device 20 to the management server 60, and the management server 60 reads the parameter associated with the received individual identification information from the storage unit 62, and the parameter editing device Send to 10 The parameter acquisition unit 101 may receive the transmitted parameter.

  Similarly, the table layout information acquisition unit 102 may acquire table layout information stored in the storage unit 62 of the management server 60. In this case, the table layout information acquisition unit 102 transmits the model of the motor control device 20 to the management server 60, and the management server 60 reads out the table layout information corresponding to the received model from the storage unit 62 and the parameter editing device 10 Send to The table layout information acquisition unit 102 may receive the transmitted table layout information.

  According to the modification (2), each data can be acquired from the management server 60 without storing the database in the parameter editing device 10. Therefore, the memory consumption of the parameter editing device 10 can be reduced. Can. Furthermore, since the database can be collectively managed by the management server 60, the management burden on the database can be reduced.

  Also, for example, the function realized by the parameter editing device 10 in the embodiment may be realized by the management server 60. That is, functions such as the parameter acquisition unit 101, the table layout information acquisition unit 102, and the parameter editing unit 105 may be realized by the management server 60. In this case, the parameter editing apparatus 10 may mainly perform only the input from the user and the display of the screen, and the main processing related to the parameter editing may be realized on the management server 60 side.

  (3) Further, for example, although the embodiment and the above-described modification have been described by taking the maintenance after the user has purchased the motor control device 20 and the servo mechanism 30 as an example, by editing the parameters in a table format, The device control system 1 may be manufactured. That is, in the setting at the time of manufacture of the motor control device 20 or the servo mechanism 30, the parameters may be edited in a table format. In this case, the parameter editing device 10 may be installed in a factory where the motor control device 20 or the servo mechanism 30 is manufactured. When performing initial setting at the time of shipment in a factory, the table editing screen G2 may be displayed on the parameter editing device 10, and initial setting of parameters and initial values of table layout information may be written to the motor control device 20. . As described above, the parameter editing device 10 may be used to write the plurality of parameters edited in the table into the motor control device 20 to be manufactured, and the motor control device 20 may be shipped. That is, as a method of manufacturing the industrial device control system 1 including the motor control device 20 and the servo mechanism 30, the parameter editing described above may be used.

  (4) When the user inputs parameters to the table displayed in the data display area G2F, the user may directly input values to each cell, but a plurality of candidate values may be input. The user may select among them. In this case, in the data display area G2F, these plurality of value candidates are displayed as a list, from which the user selects a desired value. Note that the values displayed in the list and the description thereof may be stored in advance in the database storage unit 100. For example, when 2-byte data can be replaced with 4-digit numerical values in hexadecimal, as in a nibble type, the value of each digit may be made selectable in a list. In this case, the parameter ID may be set for each digit. Also, for example, when the digit indicates the 0th digit, the 1st digit, the 2nd digit, and the 3rd digit, it indicates that 0 bit, 4 bit, 8 bit, 12 bit offset is made from the address of each address. Information may be stored in the database storage unit 100. In this case, in order to use the second and third digits of two bytes for one purpose (that is, as one parameter), they are divided into three such as 0 bit, 4 bits and 12 bits. You may do it. That is, in the operation of the table editing function, for example, each digit is divided and set for each column. If you have a nibble type in one cell, for example, you have to add a dialog box in front of the combo box at the time of operation, and have four combo boxes on the dialog, etc., or enter a 4-digit number. However, if each digit is divided and set for each column, each digit can be displayed as a separate column, which makes it easier to edit the parameters as described above.

  For example, even if the parameter editing device 10 is not connected to the motor control device 20, parameter editing may be possible. That is, the parameter editing device 10 may activate the support tool in an off-line state. In this case, the parameters may be stored in advance in the storage unit 12 of the parameter editing device 10.

  Further, for example, the table layout information does not have to include all of the format information, the display position information, the group information, and the tab layout information, and at least one of them may be included. For example, when fixing a table in either row layout or column layout, the format information may not be included. Further, for example, when the display position of each parameter is fixed, the display position information may not be included. Further, for example, when parameters are not grouped, group information may not be included. Also, for example, in the case where a single table is provided without including a plurality of tabs, tab layout information may not be included.

  Also, for example, when only a single language is available in the support tool, the language information may not be prepared. Further, for example, when the address for storing the parameter is not fixed for each model, the address information may not be included in the model information. Further, for example, in the case where table layout information is not distinguished for each function, table layout information may not be prepared in association with the function. Further, for example, when the file identifier is not distinguished for each function, the file may have a common identifier for each function. Also, for example, the file writing restriction by the writing restriction unit 110 may be omitted.

  As mentioned above, although the embodiment and modification concerning the present invention were described, the concrete composition shown in these embodiments and modification is shown as an example, and limits the technical scope of the present invention to this. It is not intended. Those skilled in the art may appropriately modify these disclosed embodiments and variations, and it is to be understood that the technical scope of the invention disclosed herein also includes such modifications. It is.
