2. Description of the Related Art Measuring apparatuses that repeatedly perform measurement processing on an object to be measured at predetermined measurement intervals are known.

For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a control system including a field device as a measuring device and a host control device, in which a value of a measurement cycle of a measurement process executed by the field device based on a measurement value acquired by the field device is disclosed. Also disclosed is a control system that facilitates changing a reference value for determining a change in measurement period.

Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2002-008178

In the measuring device described in Patent Document 1, the measurement period is changed based on the measured value obtained by the measuring device, so it is not easy to execute the measurement process in response to a user's request, for example. . Therefore, the user's convenience regarding measurement processing has been reduced.

An object of the present disclosure is to provide a measurement device that improves user convenience regarding measurement processing.

A measuring device according to some embodiments is a measuring device that executes a measurement process on a measured object to obtain a measured value, and includes a control unit that repeatedly executes the measurement process at a set first cycle; a communication unit capable of communicating with a first information processing device; the control unit is configured to receive a start trigger signal for executing the measurement process from the first information processing device via the communication unit; Based on the start trigger signal, the measurement process is executed before the first period elapses. This improves the user's convenience regarding measurement processing by the measuring device. For example, in a measurement device, the control unit executes measurement processing before the first period has elapsed based on the acquired start trigger signal, so that the user can respond to the user's request even before the first period has elapsed. Measurements can be easily made using a measuring device according to the requirements.

In one embodiment, the control unit may repeatedly execute the measurement process in a second period shorter than the first period based on a first trigger signal indicated by the start trigger signal. Thereby, even if the user wants to temporarily perform measurement processing at a short cycle instead of the set measurement cycle, the user can easily perform measurement at a short cycle.

In one embodiment, when the control unit acquires a stop trigger signal for stopping the measurement process based on the second cycle from the first information processing device via the communication unit, the control unit receives the acquired stop trigger signal. The measurement process based on the second period may be stopped based on the above. This allows the user to stop the measurement process based on the second period. For example, after stopping the measurement process based on the second cycle, it is possible to easily return to the measurement process based on the first cycle. Therefore, the user's operations related to the measurement process are simplified, and the user's convenience is improved.

In one embodiment, the control unit may perform the measurement process only once upon obtaining a second trigger signal indicated by the start trigger signal. This allows the user to check the current real-time measured values. Therefore, for example, the measured value at the current time during the first cycle can be easily confirmed, improving convenience for the user. For example, it is possible to check the measured value at the current time when the measuring device is being maintained, improving the accuracy of adjustment during maintenance of the measuring device, and improving convenience for the user.

In one embodiment, the communication unit obtains a setting signal including information regarding the first period from the first information processing device, and the control unit controls the setting signal based on the setting signal obtained by the communication unit. A first period may be set. In this way, even if the first period is set based on the first information processing device, the user can reset the value of the first period to, for example, a shorter value before the first period elapses. It is possible to easily perform measurements using the measuring device according to the user's request without having to do so.

In one embodiment, the control unit may repeatedly execute the measurement process in a third cycle shorter than the first cycle when the measurement value obtained by executing the measurement process exceeds a predetermined range. . Thereby, the measuring device can shorten the interval at which changes in the measurement state are detected by automatically shortening the measurement cycle to the third cycle when an abnormality in the measurement state is detected, for example. The case where an abnormality in the measurement state is detected includes, for example, the case where the measured value exceeds a predetermined range.

In one embodiment, the control unit stops the measurement process based on the third cycle when the measured value obtained by executing the measurement process based on the third cycle returns to within the predetermined range. Good too. Thereby, the measuring device stops the measurement process based on the third period. For example, after stopping the measurement process based on the third cycle, it is possible to easily return to the measurement process based on the first cycle. Therefore, the user's operations related to the measurement process are simplified, and the user's convenience is improved. The measuring device can quickly determine, for example, that the measurement state has returned to normal. The return of the measurement state to normal means, for example, that the measured value returns within a predetermined range. The measuring device can quickly detect a return to normality, additional abnormality, etc., and can always detect the latest alarm diagnosis information. The measuring device can immediately cancel the alarm when the measurement state returns to normal.

The measurement device according to one embodiment includes a storage unit that stores measurement data including the measurement value obtained by the measurement process, and the control unit stores the measurement data in the measurement process every time the measurement process is executed. It may also be stored in the storage unit. Thereby, the history of measurement data can be acquired by the measurement device alone. That is, unlike the conventional method, there is no need to transmit measurement data to an external device at any time after the control unit finishes measurement processing. The measuring device itself can acquire information regarding trends in past measured values.

In one embodiment, the control unit transmits the measurement value obtained by the measurement process to at least one of the first information processing device and a second information processing device different from the first information processing device, and transmits the measurement value to the communication device. It may also be sent via the department. Thereby, the user can check the status of measured values, including changes in measured values, for example, on at least one side of the first information processing device and the second information processing device. For example, the user can also monitor the status of measured values in real time on at least one side of the first information processing device and the second information processing device.

According to the present disclosure, it is possible to provide a measurement device that improves user convenience regarding measurement processing.

Problems with the prior art will be explained in more detail.

In principle, conventional measuring devices repeatedly perform measurement processing only at externally set measurement intervals. However, it is assumed that there may be cases where it is necessary to temporarily operate the measuring device at a shorter cycle than the above-mentioned measurement period, for example, when setting up the measuring device or adjusting the sensor included in the measuring device. be done. In such a case, the user had to reset the measurement cycle to a shorter value, and then reset the measurement cycle to the original measurement cycle after completing the work.

In such a conventional measurement system, the measurement device executes measurement processing at a set measurement cycle, so the user cannot obtain real-time measurement values at the current moment. In other words, even if the user requests the measurement device to obtain measured values using any method, the user will obtain the measured values based on the measurement processing in the measurement cycle before the request, rather than the requested measured values at the current point in time. That's all I could do. For example, if the measurement cycle is one day, even if the user requests to obtain measured values 23 hours after the measurement process in the previous measurement cycle, the measured values from 23 hours ago will not be obtained. That's all I could do.

When such conventional measurement devices detect some kind of abnormality based on the measured values obtained during the measurement process, even if the user immediately works to improve the abnormal condition, the user cannot perform the next measurement cycle. Until the measurement process is executed, it is not possible to determine based on the measured values whether the normal state has been restored or whether an additional abnormality has occurred. For example, if the measurement cycle is one day, the measurement device determines that the measurement state is abnormal based on the measurement process in the measurement cycle before the user's request, and the user immediately corrects the abnormal state. However, it was not possible to determine that the normal state had returned and cancel the alarm until the next measurement cycle, which was nearly one day later.

In such a conventional measurement system, the measurement data acquired by the measurement device every cycle is overwritten and stored in the measurement device, and the measurement data every cycle is stored in, for example, an external device. In such a case, the measuring device only temporarily stores one period's worth of measurement data acquired through the measurement process. Therefore, a user cannot grasp the history of past measurement results using a single measuring device, and in order to check such a history, accumulated data stored in an external device is required.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present disclosure aims to provide a measurement device that improves user convenience regarding measurement processing.

For example, the control unit 11 may accumulate the measurement data D in the storage unit 14 every time a measurement value is acquired by the measurement process based on the first period T1. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, the control unit 11 may accumulate the measurement data D in the storage unit 14 every time a measurement value is obtained through measurement processing based on the second cycle T2 or the third cycle T3.

According to the measuring device 10 according to the embodiment as described above, user convenience regarding measurement processing is improved. For example, in the measuring device 10, the control unit 11 executes the measurement process based on the acquired start trigger signal S1 before the first period T1 elapses, so that the measurement period once set by the external device, that is, the first The user can easily perform measurements using the measuring device 10 even before the period T1 has elapsed.

For example, the control unit 11 repeatedly executes the measurement process in a second cycle T2 that is shorter than the first cycle T1, so that the user wants to temporarily perform the measurement process in a shorter cycle instead of the set measurement cycle. Even if the measurement period is short, the measurement can be easily performed in a short period without resetting the measurement period. For example, by simply selecting an item related to short-cycle measurement processing based on the second cycle T2 displayed on the display unit 23 of the first information processing device 20, the user can store the item as a fixed value in the storage unit 14 of the measurement device 10. Based on the value of the second cycle T2 stored in advance, the measurement cycle of the measuring device 10 can be automatically shortened to the second cycle T2. For example, by simply bringing the communication unit 24 of the first information processing device 20 close to the communication unit 13 of the measurement device 10, the user can change the value of the second cycle T2 stored in advance as a fixed value in the storage unit 14 of the measurement device 10. Based on this, the measurement cycle of the measuring device 10 can be automatically shortened to the second cycle T2. In addition, the user can monitor the status of measured values in real time using the second information processing device 30.

The control unit 11 stops the measurement process based on the second cycle T2 based on the acquired stop trigger signal S2, so that the user can stop the measurement process based on the second cycle T2 and perform the measurement process based on the first cycle T1. It is possible to easily return to the measurement process based on . For example, the user can start the measurement process based on the second cycle T2 by simply selecting an item related to stopping the short cycle measurement process based on the second cycle T2 displayed on the display unit 23 of the first information processing device 20. Can be easily stopped. For example, the user can easily stop the measurement processing based on the second cycle T2 by simply bringing the communication unit 24 of the first information processing device 20 closer to or away from the communication unit 13 of the measurement device 10. can be done. As described above, the user's operations related to the measurement process are simplified and the user's convenience is improved.

By executing the measurement process only once when the control unit 11 obtains the second trigger signal S12, the user can display the current real-time measured value using, for example, the display unit 33 of the second information processing device 30. It can be confirmed. Therefore, for example, adjustment accuracy during maintenance of the measuring device 10 is improved, and user convenience is improved.

For example, the measuring device 10 detects an abnormality in the measurement state by determining that the measured value exceeds a predetermined range and repeatedly executing the measurement process in the third cycle T3, which is shorter than the first cycle T1. In this case, the measurement period is automatically shortened to the third period T3. Thereby, the measuring device 10 can shorten the interval at which changes in the measurement state are detected.

When the control unit 11 determines that the measurement state has returned to normal and stops the measurement process based on the third cycle T3, the measuring device 10 stops the measurement process based on the third cycle T3. For example, after stopping the measurement process based on the third cycle T3, it is possible to easily return to the measurement process based on the first cycle T1. This simplifies the user's operations regarding the measurement process and improves the user's convenience. The measuring device 10 can quickly determine, for example, that the measurement state has returned to normal. The measuring device 10 can quickly detect a return to normality, additional abnormality, etc., and can always detect the latest alarm diagnosis information. The measuring device 10 can immediately cancel the alarm when the measurement state returns to normal.

By storing the measurement data D in the storage unit 14 every time the control unit 11 executes measurement processing, even if the measurement system 1 does not have the second information processing device 30, the measurement The history of the measurement data D can be acquired by the device 10 alone. That is, unlike the prior art, it is not necessary to transmit the measurement data D to the second information processing device 30 at any time after the control section 11 finishes the measurement processing. The measuring device 10 is capable of acquiring information regarding trends in past measured values by itself. Therefore, it becomes possible for the measuring device 10 to transmit the measurement data D stored in the storage unit 14 to the first information processing device 20, and the user can transmit not only the second information processing device 30 side but also the first information Changes in measured values can also be confirmed on the processing device 20 side.

The measuring device 10 can also be used in environments where this is not the case. For example, in an environment where the measuring device 10 and the first information processing device 20 are installed at a measurement site, the user acquires measurement data D for a certain period of time with the measuring device 10, and then installs the measuring device 10 with the second information processing device 30.
