FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining a lighting control system according to an embodiment. The light control system 100 of FIG. 1 includes an operation console 1 including a touch panel type display 10 and a control device 2 communicably connected to the operation console 1. The operation console 1 is an example of a light control operation device.

The operator (user) who controls the light can control and operate the light via the console 1. The control device 2 generates a control signal for controlling a light (lighting device) arranged on the airport surface based on various information passed from the operation console 1. This control signal is input to each light via the network 3 represented by CASTNET. Of course, a hardware device for controlling the light may be provided between the control device 2 and the light.

As shown in FIG. 1, the display 10 of the operation console 1 switches and displays the map screen and the operation screen according to the intention of the user. The map screen is a screen that displays a map of the airport in which the lights to be controlled are arranged. The user can check the lighting status of the airport by referring to the map screen. The operation screen is a screen for accepting an operation on a light and adjusting the lighting level of the light.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of a map screen displayed on the display device 10. The map screen is actually displayed in color for easy viewing. The map screen is created in advance by arranging a light mark 81 indicating a light arranged on the airport surface on the map of the airport. The map screen data and the operation screen data are stored in the memory 14 of the operation console 1 in a predetermined format.

The light mark 81 is displayed on the map screen in a hue corresponding to each light. The light mark 81 is not limited to, for example, two types of 〇 and □, and is displayed as a level of brightness (brightness) according to the actual lighting level of the light. For example, an intermediate lighting level is displayed at an intermediate brightness level.

The map screen includes a header area 82 and an operating display area below the header area 82. The header area 82 is an area for displaying information common to the operation screen, and includes a switching button 84 for switching and displaying the map screen and the operation screen with one touch. In addition, the header area 82 includes the name of the airport to be controlled and operated, the operation right indicator button, the approach direction of the aircraft, the weather information display area, the dimming button of the touch panel itself, and the like. When the switching button 84 is tapped, the operation screen of FIG. 3 shown below is switched on the common screen of the display device 10.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of an operation screen displayed on the display device 10. The operation screen includes a plurality of operation buttons for operating the light. For example, the brightness setting button 91 is a button for changing the setting of the lighting level of the light to be controlled with one tap. The brightness setting button 91 is provided in a matrix for each lighting level (for example, 6 stages of 0 to 5) and for each type of lighting.

For example, in FIG. 3, for PAPI (Precision Approach Path Indicator), which is one of the lighting targets, the current brightness setting value “5” is displayed in different colors in association with the PAPI brightness setting button 91. .. The state of being displayed in different colors is indicated by hatching. The current set value is shown in, for example, bright blue on the operation screen, and is shown in dot hatching (coarse) in FIG. The set value selected by the tap operation by the operator is shown in dark blue, for example, in dark blue on the operation screen, and is shown by dot hatching (dense) in FIG. The set value indicator 92 displays the current set value (state) corresponding to each light in different colors together with the numerical value.

With the brightness setting button 91, the brightness level to be set next can be operated. Focusing on PAPI, for example, the button corresponding to the lightness level 3 is dark blue and is displayed together with the lightness level numerical value (3). This indicates that this button was tapped but not reflected in the actual control. In addition, in REDL, the numerical value (4) button is in the same state, and in RTZL, the numerical value (4) button is in the same state. This indicates the operator's intention to change the set value from the current value (3) or (2) to (4), respectively.

By tapping the brightness setting button 91, the operator can confirm that the setting for each light has been updated by the color-coded display and the numerical value on the button. In this state, as shown in FIG. 3, a message such as "Reflect the changes. Are you sure?" Is displayed in the footer area of the operation screen, for example. In response to this message, the operator taps the [Execute] button 93 to approve the setting contents. As a result, the setting contents are passed to the control device 2, a control signal is generated, and the control signal is input to each light.

On the other hand, when the [Cancel] button 94 is tapped, the approval is rejected and the setting contents are cancelled. Of course, the actual lighting condition remains unchanged. After being canceled, the settings may be left as they are, or they may be forcibly set to the default values. Alternatively, the default value may be set by tapping the [Reset] button 95.

The default value is a lighting level based on the brightness of each light, and is mainly set based on conditions such as weather conditions, time, season, and visibility (good or bad visibility) at that time. The console 1 or the control device 2 may be provided with a function for calculating default values according to various conditions.

Further, the operation screen of FIG. 3 includes an up button 96 and a down button 97. Each time you tap the up button 96, you can increment the brightness level of the corresponding light by one level. Each time you tap the down button 97, you can decrement the brightness level of the corresponding light by one level.

The setting value indicator 92 displays the setting value tapped by the brightness setting button 91. However, the value displayed on the set value indicator 92 is not reflected in the lighting level of the light unless the [Execute] button 93 is tapped. That is, the setting value indicator 92 is an area for displaying the value in conjunction with the current brightness setting value in the brightness setting button 91.

Here, each button displayed on the operation screen has both a function as an icon (widget) for accepting a tap operation and a function for visually displaying a set value. The touch panel mechanism may be either a method of detecting a change in capacitance or a pressure-sensitive type. In either type of panel, the spacing between adjacent buttons is important to prevent simultaneous button presses. In the embodiment, the layout of the brightness setting button 91, the setting value indicator 92, the up button 96, and the down button 97 is devised in consideration of this point. That is, in the embodiment, in the touch panel, the arrangement relation expression and the operation mode in the area where these buttons are placed are made different.

FIG. 4 is a functional block diagram showing an example of the operation console 1. The console 1 is a computer and includes a display 10, a processor 11 for controlling the display 10, a memory 14, and a communication interface (I / F) 12. Of these, the communication I / F 12 is communicably connected to the control device 2 via the network 3.

The processor 11 is, for example, an arithmetic chip such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit) or an MPU (Micro Processing Unit). The memory 14 may include a non-volatile storage device such as an SSD (Solid State Drive) or a flash memory, and a volatile storage device such as a DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory).

The memory 14 stores a program 14a for operating the operation console 1 and a set of map screen data and operation screen data for each of a plurality of airports. For example, the data set 15a for the airport A includes the map screen data a1 of the airport A and the operation screen data a2. The same applies to Airport B ... Airport N.

The processor 11 includes a first function 11a, a second function 11b, and a third function 11c as functions related to the embodiment. These functions are realized by executing the program 14a read into the memory 14 by the processor 11. That is, the program includes an instruction to cause the processor 11 to execute the first function 11a, an instruction to execute the second function 11b, and an instruction to execute the third function 11c.

The first function 11a displays the map screen and the operation screen on the display device 10. In particular, the first function 11a switches and displays the map screen and the operation screen when the switching button 84 (FIGS. 2 and 3) in the header area 82 is tapped. Further, the first function 11a displays the brightness setting button 91 (FIG. 3) on the operation screen. The brightness setting button 91 is a button for setting the brightness level of the light with one tap for the light to be controlled.

The first function controls the display mode of icons and various marks (widgets) displayed on the map screen and the operation screen. That is, the first function displays, for example, the light mark 81 on the map screen in the hue corresponding to the lighting level of each light. That is, the first function displays the light mark 81 at the hue and the lightness level according to the actual lighting level of the light. For example, a light symbol with an intermediate lighting level is displayed on the map screen by the first function at an intermediate brightness level. Here, the lighting level of each light can be known via the control device 2 by feedback from each light.

The second function 11b displays on the display 10 the operation content for the light set by the tap operation. In particular, the second function 11b temporarily buffers (registers) the operation content for the light set by tapping the operation screen in the memory 14. Further, as described below, the second function 11b of the processor 11 executes various controls related to the display on the display 10.

The third function 11c provides a control signal for reflecting the operation content in the actual lighting state of the airport light when the operation content is approved (such as tapping the execution button 93 in FIG. 3). Generate and output to the control device 2. That is, when the approval operation is executed, the third function 11c collectively passes (notifies) the operation contents registered in the memory 14 to the control device 2, and sends a control signal (command) corresponding to the operation contents. Generate it and put it in the light.

Further, the second function 11b reflects the operation content on each lighting mark on the map screen between the time when the setting for the lighting is completed on the operation screen and the time when the approval operation is performed. In particular, the second function 11b reflects the lighting level of the operated light on the brightness level of the light mark on the map screen.

Further, the first function 11a displays the menu window on the display 10. The menu window is a window for selecting an airport to be controlled.
FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of a menu window. This window displays a list of names of a plurality of airports (tentatively referred to as [SHIBAURA], [KAWASAKI], ..., Etc.). The name of each airport can be selected by tapping, and the name of the selected airport (for example, [SHIBAURA]) is displayed in different colors. When the enter button is tapped from this state, a read instruction is given to the memory 14 (FIG. 4), and the map screen data and the operation screen data of the selected airport are read out as a set. Then, the first function 11a displays the read map screen and the operation screen on the display 10 of the operation console 1. By doing this, it is possible to control operations related to the lights of multiple airports. Next, the operation in the above configuration will be described.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing an example of the processing procedure in the light control system 100 according to the first embodiment. It is assumed that the button 91a is displayed in bright blue (light hatching) on the operation screen of FIG. Further, a numerical value of the brightness level (for example, 5) is displayed on the button 91a.

From this state, it is assumed that the operator taps the button 91b newly related to the desired setting (step S21). Then, the processor 11 changes the button 91b, which was displayed in black before the tap operation, to a bright blue color, and displays a numerical value (for example, 3) of the brightness level on the button 91b. That is, among the button group of the brightness setting button 91, the button indicating the temporarily set numerical value is displayed in a conspicuous color such as bright blue in order to make the difference from the others stand out. Further, the processor 11 changes the color of the button 91a to, for example, gray.

That is, the brightness setting button 91b related to the newly desired setting is displayed in a color different from the color of the brightness setting button 91a related to the pre-operation setting. Further, the value corresponding to the button 91b (for example, 3) is displayed on the set value indicator 92. As a result, the brightness setting button 91a related to the setting before the operation and the brightness setting button 91b related to the newly desired setting are simultaneously displayed, and the operator visually displays the state before / after the setting on the display 10. Can be compared and confirmed (step S22). Further, the processor 11 visually displays the setting state of the light after the operation on the map screen (step S23). That is, the operation content on the operation screen is reflected in the setting state of the light mark and the brightness level on the map screen.

As a result, the operator can determine whether or not the input setting content operated by the operator is correct based on the visual information (step S24). If the operator determines that the operation is correct (Yes), the operator taps the execution button 93 to perform an approval operation (step S25), and approves the execution of the operation content. Then, the processor 11 of the operation console 1 passes the operation content to the control device 2, and the control device 2 outputs a control signal (step S26). Accordingly, the operation content is reflected in the actual lighting state of the light (step S27). When the reflection is completed, the gray display of the button 91a is canceled.

It should be noted that when the approval operation is executed, the first function 11a clearly indicates on the screen of the display 10 that the approval operation is not completed until the approved operation content is reflected in the actual lighting state of the light. do. For example, by displaying the in-operation indicator 83 in FIG. 2, it is clearly shown that the reflection has not been completed even after the approval. The operation content is reflected in the lighting state of the light, and when the normal answerback is returned, the operation indicator 83 is immediately turned off.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S24 that the input is incorrect (No), the operator taps the cancel button 94 and performs a cancel operation (step S28). After resetting (step S29), the setting state of the operation screen and the map screen is returned to the setting state before the operation. The operation details before resetting are not reflected in the actual lighting state of the light. The details of the operation using the operation screen will be described in more detail in the fourth embodiment.

As described above, according to the first embodiment, after the operation using the operation screen, a step for visually checking whether or not the operation content is correct can be provided. This makes it possible to prevent erroneous control of the operator. Even if there is an error, it can be corrected or canceled before it is reflected in the actual lighting.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart for explaining a processing procedure in an existing lighting control system for comparison. In the existing system of this type, the control signal is generated and output (step S12) by pressing the mechanical operation switch (step S11), and the lighting is controlled (step S13). However, in recent airport lighting control systems, flexible switch arrangements and functional improvements are required. Therefore, the inventors have proposed an operation method using a touch panel. However, since the touch panel has no unevenness as compared with the physical switch, there is a possibility that the operation position may be erroneous. In addition, due to the characteristics of the touch panel, there is a possibility of unintentional contact and erroneous operation. The lights provide visual information to the pilot during takeoff and landing on the runway of the aircraft and when traveling on the ground, and erroneous operation can lead to serious accidents.

Therefore, the inventors have made it possible to realize the following (1), (2), and (3) by the configuration of the operation console 1 shown in FIG.
(1) Visual operation comparison function In the procedure in the existing system of FIG. 7, control is executed immediately when the switch is operated, but in the embodiment of the present invention, a check stage (step S24) is provided so that erroneous control can be performed. To prevent. That is, the current state of the light and the operation content are displayed in the same operation panel in different colors so that the operator can visually confirm whether the operation content is intended by the operator.

(2) Visual pre-display of post-control state In the existing technology, the screen is updated and displayed by the answer back after the control output, so there is a risk that the error will not be noticed until after the erroneous control is issued. .. On the other hand, in the embodiment of the present invention, the lighting state of the light after the control is executed is displayed on the runway image (map screen) before the control is executed. This makes it possible to confirm the lighting state after control before the control is output.

(3) Cancel function If there is any problem in the check stage (step S24) to prevent erroneous control output, correction and operation input can be canceled. This makes it possible to quickly eliminate erroneous operations.

From these facts, according to the first embodiment, when the touch panel is used in the light control system, it is possible to prevent erroneous control of the light by erroneous operation or the like. Therefore, it is possible to improve operability and contribute to safe operation. As a result, it is possible to provide a light control system, an operation console, a light control method, and a program that enhance operability and contribute to the safe operation of the aircraft.

[Second Embodiment]
In the second embodiment, an example of applying the present technology to a control method called a so-called remote control method will be described. It can be said that the conventional direct control method is a method in which the operator controls the lighting within the range visible from the control tower. The remote control method can be said to be a method of remotely controlling lights via a network from a geographically distant place in order to improve the operational efficiency of the airport.

FIG. 8 is a system diagram showing an example of the light control system 100 according to the second embodiment. For example, a remote control console will be installed at Airport A. In particular, the airport A includes an operation console 31 and an operation console 32 that are redundant with each other. These are configured to be switchable. The console 31 is connected to the control device 41, and the console 32 is connected to the control device 42. These are connected to network 3 via a router.

Airport B is connected to network 3 via a router. The router is connected to the control devices 51 and 52. The control devices 51 and 52 are connected to the control devices 61, 62, 71 and 72 via the airport network 200. Of these, the control device 71 is connected to the operation unit 73 of the lighting operation desk at Airport B, and the control device 72 is connected to the monitoring unit 74.

In the embodiment, it is assumed that the lights of the airport B are controlled from the operation consoles 31 and 32 of the airport A. For example, it corresponds to the case where [SHIBAURA] is selected from the menu window of FIG. 5 assuming that Airport A is the MINATO airport of FIG. That is, in this case, the lighting of SHIBAURA airport can be remotely controlled from MINATO airport via network 3.

FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing an example of the processing procedure in the light control system 100 in the second embodiment. When the brightness setting button 91 on the operation screen (FIG. 3) is tapped (Yes in step S41), the processor 11 of the operation console 1 directly sets the value set by the tapped button to the lighting level of the target light. ,set. This operation content is registered in the memory 14.

On the other hand, when the up button 96 or the down button 97 on the operation screen is tapped (Yes in step S44), the processor 11 of the operation console 1 increments / or decrements the brightness level step by step (step S45). This operation content is also registered in the memory 14. When the operator determines that the operation is completed (Yes in step S43), the operator subsequently taps the execution button 93 to perform the execution operation (step S46).

Then, the processor 11 of the operation console 1 collectively passes the operation contents registered in the memory 14 to the control device 2, and the control device 2 generates and outputs a control signal corresponding to the passed operation contents (step S47). At this time, the operation console 1 displays the operation indicator 83 (FIG. 2) to visually indicate that the control signal is being transmitted.

When the transmission of the control signal is completed, the actual lights are collectively turned on and controlled (step S48). Then, the processor 11 of the operation console 1 visually displays the lighting level of the light after the operation as the lighting brightness level on the map screen (FIG. 2).

When controlling the lighting from a remote location, the operator may not be able to see the actual lighting. Therefore, in the second embodiment, the brightness level of the light displayed on the runway image (map screen) is used to express the lighting level of the target light (in the field) so as to visually prevent erroneous operation. did.

FIG. 10 is a flowchart for explaining another example of the processing procedure in the existing lighting control system for comparison. In the existing light control system, each time one operation switch is pressed (step S31), the corresponding control signal is output (step S32), and the corresponding light is turned on (step S33). After that, the operator confirmed the returned answerback (step S34), and the control by the operation switch was repeated until the operations for all the lights were completed (Yes in step S35).

Under the direct control method, lighting control is performed from the control tower in the airport, so real-time control and monitoring of about 1 second for control and 2 seconds for answer was possible. However, under the remote control method, due to the limitation of the communication speed from an economical or technical point of view, real-time control cannot be performed, and a delay time occurs from the transmission of the control signal to the response return of the control result. Especially in the control of lights, the brightness level of the lights is controlled step by step by the number of times the up / down buttons are pressed. Unintended lighting levels may occur. In particular, if there is a delay, it takes time to correct such an erroneous operation, and until it is corrected, there is a risk of giving erroneous visual information to the pilot and developing an accident in some cases. In this way, it is necessary to be able to prevent erroneous operations even in an environment where real-time control is difficult.
Therefore, the inventors have made it possible to realize the following (4), (5), and (6) by the configuration of the operation console 1 shown in FIG.
(4) Batch registration function of operation information When real-time control is difficult, there is a possibility that the number of times the operation button is pressed is incorrect. Therefore, all the operation contents to be controlled are registered in the memory 14, and the control is executed collectively after the registration is completed to prevent erroneous operation errors.

Further, by displaying the information before and after the control in the same panel or another panel in different colors, it is possible to visually confirm whether or not the operation content is intended. In addition, the control execution operation is performed, and the operation indicator 83 clearly indicates that the control is being transmitted until the control is output and it can be confirmed that the control has been executed reliably, so that the operator does not mistakenly move to the next operation. can do.

(5) Setting tap Direct input of brightness level For example, when changing the brightness level of a light from 1 to 5, instead of pressing the numerical increment button four times, the brightness setting button 91 is used to set the brightness level to the gradation setting button. Enabled to specify directly with. If there is a delay in control, pressing the button multiple times can lead to erroneous operation. Therefore, in the embodiment, taps that can be selected in advance are displayed side by side for each type of light on the operation screen, and a designated tap can be selected by one operation.

(6) Tap expression of the setting state / lighting state by the color (hue and brightness) of the runway figure (map screen) To prevent erroneous operation when the lighting is controlled from a remote location and real-time control is not possible, the lighting on the map screen The mark is changed according to the number of taps.

That is, in the second embodiment, the information necessary for the control operation of the light can be easily registered in a batch, and the information before and after the operation is visually checked at the time of registration and then the control is output in a batch to prevent an erroneous operation. I tried to prevent it.

From these facts, according to the second embodiment, it is possible to prevent an erroneous operation due to an operation delay in the case of remote control in the lighting control system. Therefore, it is possible to improve operability and contribute to safe operation. As a result, it is possible to provide a light control system, an operation console, a light control method, and a program that enhance operability and contribute to the safe operation of the aircraft.

[Third Embodiment]
In the third embodiment, redundancy will be described in detail.
FIG. 11 is a system diagram showing an example of the light control system 100 according to the third embodiment. In FIG. 11, the operation consoles 31 and 32 having the same function are made redundant. Further, it is connected to the redundant control devices 41 and 42 so that the operation consoles 31 and 32 can communicate with each other. The consoles 31 and 32 both have the same functional blocks as in FIG. That is, the consoles 31 and 32 include a display 10, a memory 14, a processor 11, and a communication I / F 12.

The processors 11 of the consoles 31 and 32 include a first function 11a, a second function 11b, and a third function 11c. The consoles 31 and 32 are made redundant with each other so that they can function as redundant systems with each other. That is, if the operating table 31 is the working system (1 system), the operating table 32 functions as the spare system (2 systems), and if the operating table 32 is the working system, the operating table 31 functions as the spare system.

In the above configuration, the operation console including the display 10 is made redundant, and the control input and the display are displayed by displaying the operation screen for performing the control input and the map screen for performing the map display on each display 10. Devices that include both functions can be made redundant. A function for switching and displaying the operation screen and the map screen is provided by the switching button 84. As a result, it is possible to have both functions without deteriorating the usability of the operation screen and the map screen. For example, when a problem occurs in the tap function of the operation screen, the problem can be avoided by switching the screen displayed on each monitor. Further, even if one display fails, it can be avoided by alternately displaying the operation screen and the map screen on the other display, or displaying a reduced screen image (thumbnail display) at the same time. However, when performing control operations in the case of simultaneous display in the reduced version, consideration is given to enlarging the operation button area so that a comfortable tap can be performed.

FIG. 12 is a diagram for explaining redundancy in the existing lighting control system for comparison. In the existing system, the control devices 41 and 42 are made redundant so that transmission control can be executed by the other control device even if one control device fails. However, it cannot be said that it is completely redundant, and the control input portion (switch panel 22 for inputting control) and the response display portion (LCD screen 21 for response display) have a single configuration. Therefore, if the switch fails, the corresponding switch cannot be operated, and if the LCD screen 21 cannot be displayed, the lighting status cannot be confirmed on the runway image screen (map screen). There are restrictions on the installation space and economics of the control tower, and it was difficult to simply install two sets of switches or two monitors.

On the other hand, in the third embodiment, two sets of operation consoles having both a response display function and a control input function are provided to realize complete redundancy. That is, according to the third embodiment, in the lighting control system, the operation input portion and the display portion can all be made redundant. Therefore, it is possible to improve operability and contribute to safe operation. As a result, it is possible to provide a light control system, an operation console, a light control method, and a program that enhance operability and contribute to the safe operation of the aircraft.

FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining the effect obtained by the embodiment. According to each embodiment, space-saving and flexible display can be performed. For example, one touch panel can display a plurality of runways and operation contents. With the switch button, the map screen and operation screen can be flexibly switched and displayed, and space efficiency can be improved.

If a two-monitor touch panel (display) is used, it is of course possible to display the display and the operation separately on two screens as in the conventional case. By switching the screen with the switch button, it can be used with one monitor of one monitor touch panel. In other words, the operation screen can be called from the map screen, and vice versa. If the tablet is used as the console 1, sufficient visibility can be ensured even with a small monitor.

[Fourth Embodiment]
In the fourth embodiment, the details of the operation using the operation screen (FIG. 3) will be described in more detail.

FIG. 14 is a diagram for explaining an example of an operation using the operation screen. The following description focuses on light PAPI, but the same applies to other lights. In the figure, different states are indicated by parenthesized numbers (1) to (5). First, it is assumed that the PAPI brightness setting button 91 [5] is displayed in bright blue and the setting value indicator 92 is displayed in dark blue [5]. This indicates that the actual lighting level of PAPI is <5> (state (1)).

When the brightness setting button 91 [3] is tapped from here, the button [3] turns bright blue and the button [5] becomes gray (state (2)). The setting value indicator 92 displays [3] in dark blue, indicating that the brightness level <3> has been selected. Also, the down button 93 changes to dark blue, indicating that the brightness level has decreased from <5> to <3>. At the same time, the execution button 93 (FIG. 3) turns bright blue, and it is clearly indicated that "the setting contents have not been reflected".

When the button [5] is tapped from here (state (3)), it returns to the original state (state (4)). From here, for example, when the down button is tapped three times (state (5)), it becomes the same state as when the brightness setting button 91 [2] is tapped as shown in FIG. 15 (state (6)). ..

When the [Execute] button is tapped from here (Status (7)), a confirmation message such as "Reflect the changes. Are you sure?" Is displayed (Status (8)), prompting the user to confirm. Is done. When the [Yes] button is tapped from here, the process for reflecting the brightness level <2> to the actual lighting level <2> is executed, and a message such as [Processing] is displayed together with the rotation mark ( State (9)). When a normal answerback is returned from a light whose lighting level has been changed, this is immediately reflected in the display of the setting value indicator 92, the button [2] becomes bright blue, and the setting value indicator becomes dark blue. Then, the gray display of the button [5] is canceled (state (10)).

As described above, in the fourth embodiment, it is possible to change the lighting level of the light easily and without fear of operation error by using the touch panel.

The numbers to be tapped may be hidden behind your fingertips, making it difficult to see. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 16, a process is implemented in which a ring-shaped mark indicates that the user has been in contact for several seconds (for example, 3 seconds), and a hidden number is displayed beside the button. You may.

[Fifth Embodiment]
FIG. 17 is a diagram showing an example of the display in step S22 of the flowchart of FIG. The lower window of FIG. 17 shows the setting state before the operation, that is, the state in which the [Execute] button is not tapped. The upper window of FIG. 17 shows the setting state after the (previous) operation, that is, the current state. This allows the operator to visually compare and confirm the pre-setting / post-setting states on the two screens. Of course, the upper and lower tiers may be interchanged.

FIG. 18 is a diagram showing an example of the display in step S23 of the flowchart of FIG. The lower window of FIG. 17 reflects the setting contents of the lower part of FIG. 16, but it is not actually reflected in the lighting state of the airport. The upper window of FIG. 17 corresponds to the upper window of FIG. 17 and shows the current state of the airport lighting. In this way, by displaying the state before / after setting on the map screen, the operator can intuitively grasp the state of the light.

[Sixth Embodiment]
FIG. 19 shows an example of displaying a map screen and an operation screen on a common display 10. Consider a form in which the map screen and the operation screen are displayed on individual operation consoles in the form of the two-monitor touch panel shown in FIG. Here, if the operation console displaying the operation screen breaks down, it is possible to switch between the map screen and the operation screen by tapping the switching button 84. However, as shown in FIG. 19, by displaying an operation screen having a minimum number of buttons as a sub screen in a pop-up with the map screen as the main screen as the background, the complexity of the screen switching operation is eliminated. Therefore, the sixth embodiment also makes it possible to improve the operability and contribute to the safe operation of the aircraft.

The present invention is not limited to each of the above embodiments. For example, in the embodiment, the map screen and the operation screen are switched by tapping the switching button 84. Instead of this, the map screen and the operation screen may be switched and displayed by a swipe operation. In other words, swipe from the map screen to switch to the operation screen, and swipe from the operation screen to switch to the map screen. By doing so, it is possible to provide a more user-friendly operation interface.

Although some embodiments of the present invention have been described, these embodiments are presented as examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. These novel embodiments can be implemented in various other embodiments, and various omissions, replacements, and changes can be made without departing from the gist of the invention.
