Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field] The present invention relates to an improvement of a unidirectional wireless transmission system used in a wireless monitoring system using weak radio waves.

(Background technology) This type of system is configured by combining one wireless receiver and multiple wireless transmitters, and the receivers in the system are wireless transmitters attached to security sensors, fire sensors, etc. , when a security signal is received in the form of a radio wave signal from a portable wireless emergency transmitter carried when an elderly person requiring nursing care is walking alone or a sick person is away from a caregiver. The system is configured to monitor the system by activating alarm means and displaying the location where an abnormality has occurred on a display.

In such wireless systems, a house code is attached to the security signal sent from the transmitter, and by checking the match of this house code on the receiver side, it is possible to communicate with other wireless systems. Consideration is usually taken to prevent interference. However, since such a system generates an alarm if the house codes match, it is impossible to divide the system into multiple warning zones and activate only one of them. The flexibility in terms of use could not be said to be sufficient.

Further, in order to simplify the configuration of the conventional wireless system as described above, it is a unidirectional communication system in which a security signal is sent from the transmitter to the receiver only when an abnormality occurs. For this reason, transmission checks are not performed during normal times when no abnormalities occur, so even if an abnormality occurs in the transmission system, the abnormality cannot be discovered until it is actually operated, and reliability is also insufficient. there were.

Therefore, in view of the conventional wireless transmission system having problems such as ridges, the inventors of the present invention proposed an optional wireless transmitter included in the system, which was filed on the same day as the present invention. We have proposed a wireless transmission system that selectively registers security signals from registered wireless transmitters and processes only security signals from registered wireless transmitters when in alert mode. The present invention is improved and expanded by adding, in particular, a function that allows ID codes of registered wireless transmitters to be displayed on a display unit in a predetermined order.

(Objective of the Invention) Therefore, the object of the present invention is to improve a wireless transmission system that can process only security signals from registered wireless transmitters, and its main purpose is to An object of the present invention is to provide a wireless transmission system with an added function in which codes are scrolled and displayed in a predetermined order on a security information display means.

Further, another object of the present invention, in addition to the above-mentioned main object, is to
For wireless transmitters that have a periodic transmission function, the object is to provide a wireless transmission system that can simultaneously determine abnormalities in the periodic transmission.7 [Disclosure of the Invention] Proposed to achieve the above object. The present invention system outputs security data in the form of a radio signal as a security signal, which is security data in which a house code, a warning zone code, a unit code, and a function code are attached to monitoring data such as an alarm signal emitted from a sensor, etc. wireless transmitters and wireless receivers that receive security signals from these wireless transmitters, wherein the wireless receiver is any of the wireless transmitters included in the system to be monitored. There is a registration mode that is set to process only security signals sent from wireless transmitters, and a registration mode that processes only security signals from registered wireless transmitters to display security information and activate alarms, etc. The device is configured to be able to selectively execute a warning mode that performs the necessary processing based on the security signal.a) Receives and decodes security signals from a wireless transmitter to read house codes, security zone codes, unit codes, and function codes. b) Each mode setting switch that switches the receiver between registration mode and alert mode; C) House code of the security data extracted from the front end/decoder section. d) registering at least an ID code consisting of a security zone code and a unit code assigned to each wireless transmitter monitored by the system; e) each time a security signal from a wireless transmitter is received, an ID code of security data retrieved from the front end/decoder section is already registered in the system data registration means; an ID code match determining means for comparing and referring to the house code match determining means to determine whether or not the house code matches; f) a display control switch; security information display means having an ID code display for displaying the code and a monitoring data display for displaying the monitoring data of the security data; g) an ID registered by the system data registration means;
display data readout control means for sequentially reading out the D codes in a predetermined order and scrolling them on the 10 code display of the security information display section; h) a registration mode is selected by the registration mode setting switch; When a security signal transmitted from the wireless receiver is received, among the security data retrieved by the front end/decoder unit, the security data whose house code has been confirmed to match by the house code match determining means is selected. The ID codes registered in the system data registration means are sequentially registered in the system data registration means, and when the display control switch provided in the security information display means is operated, the ID codes registered in the system data registration means are used to control the display data readout. i) When the alert mode is selected by the alert mode setting switch, each time a security signal is received from the wireless transmitter, the house code-defeat determining means and Monitored data of the security data for which a match between the house code and the ID code has been confirmed by the ID code match determining means is displayed together with the ID code on the security information display means, and at the same time, the alarm activation means is activated to set the alarm. It is characterized by a configuration in which necessary processing such as ringing is performed.

In addition, in the system of the present invention proposed to simultaneously achieve the above-mentioned other object, the wireless transmitter specifies the presence or absence of periodic transmission in the function code included in the security signal transmitted from the transmitter in the form of a radio wave signal. On the other hand, each time the receiver receives a security signal transmitted from a wireless transmitter, the receiver receives the I/O of the security data retrieved by the front end/decoder section.
In addition to the D code, a function code that specifies the presence or absence of periodic transmission can be registered in the system data registration means, and periodic transmission that determines an abnormality in periodic transmission from a wireless transmitter for which periodic transmission is specified by the function code. The receiver is equipped with an abnormality determination means, and when set to the registration mode, the receiver registers the function code indicating the presence or absence of periodic transmission in the system data registration means together with the ID code, and when set to the warning mode. Sometimes, at predetermined intervals that are sufficiently longer than the regular transmission time intervals of wireless transmitters included in the system, the system data registration means checks whether or not there is regular transmission from a wireless transmitter that has a function code that indicates regular transmission registered. The periodic transmission abnormality determination means is characterized in that the regular transmission abnormality is displayed on the security information display means together with the ID code when the abnormality is determined by the periodic transmission abnormality determining means.

(Margin below) Example Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 explains an example of the use of the system of the present invention.
A indicates a wireless transmitter, and B indicates a wireless receiver.

The wireless transmitter indicated by A is available in various types depending on the purpose of monitoring the system, and is equipped with a wireless transmitter and an antenna for transmitting a security signal inside the main body of the chair.

11 and 12 are wireless transmitters used by connecting to the fire sensor Sa and security switch sb, respectively (the one in 11 is shown with a part of its cover cut away to expose the internal loop antenna). ), the house code described later is used for monitoring data such as fire sensor alarms and window opening/closing detection signals.

Security data with a warning zone code and unit code is generated, and a carrier radio wave is modulated with this data to form a security signal, which is then radiated from each antenna in the form of a radio wave signal.

On the other hand, reference numerals 13 to 15 are portable wireless transmitters that are carried by people who require nursing care such as the elderly and sick, and which transmit emergency signals by pressing pushbutton switches 133 to 15a in the event of an emergency. Then, a security signal similar to that of the transmitters 11 and 12 described above is radiated in the form of a radio wave signal from an internal antenna.

Security signals transmitted from these wireless transmitters 11 to 15 are received by receiver B, and necessary measures for security are taken. When receiver B receives the security signal transmitted from each wireless transmitter A, it decodes the monitoring data and takes necessary measures such as activating an alarm (not shown). It has an antenna 2a for receiving the security signal, and a display section 24 for displaying security information according to the security signal received via the antenna 2a.

In addition, the monitoring data display 2 provided in the receiver B is shown in FIG. 1a.
4b and the details of the display Ha switch are shown.

FIG. 2 shows a schematic configuration of the internal circuit of a portable wireless transmitter A among the wireless transmitters used in the system of the present invention.

The wireless transmitter A includes a CPU 10A constituting the main part of a one-chip microcomputer, a wireless transmitter 10B, and house code, zone code, and unit code setting devices 10C to 10I, each consisting of a plurality of dip switches.
OE, J has an operation switch SWa that is pressed in case of an emergency, and when the operation switch SWa is pressed, the CPU10A detects this state and sends the house code to the emergency signal.

Security data (see FIG. 3) with a zone code and unit code attached thereto is sent to the wireless transmitter IOB and transmitted in the form of a radio wave signal via the antenna 10a.

Here, the house code means the unique code assigned to the security system, the zone code means the unique code assigned according to the monitoring area (warning zone) of the wireless transmitter, and the unit code means the unique code assigned to each transmitter. are doing.

Note that SWc is a supervisory setting switch that allows the receiver side to detect abnormalities in the wireless system by outputting a regular signal from the wireless transmitter A to the receiver B at predetermined time intervals. and
Further, SWb is a tamper switch provided as necessary, and outputs an abnormal signal when the cover of the wireless transmitter A is removed.

Also, IOF is a voltage drop detector and wireless transmitter A
The device detects a voltage drop in a built-in battery (not shown) and detects a dead battery.

In the wireless transmitter A of this embodiment, the supervisor setting switch SWc allows periodic transmission of security data in a function code to be described later.

When the voltage drop detector 10E detects a dead battery, a dead battery signal with a house code, zone code, and unit code is sent from the wireless transmitter 10B in the form of a radio signal in the same way as an emergency signal. (See Figures 3a and 3b).

FIG. 3 shows an example of the structure of the signal form of the security signal transmitted from the wireless transmitter A.

In the figure, one unit of the security signal is the pause time Tk
The format is such that a burri receive Tp is provided at the beginning of two frames of data divided by , and each frame includes a signal that becomes monitoring data (for example, an alarm signal, Low battery signal.

A tamper signal) is provided, followed by a function code, and finally a backup code and an odd parity check code.

The house code is 13 bits from H7 to HO, the zone code is 3 bits from 22 to ZO, and the unit code is U2 to UO.
It has a 3-bit structure, and the monitoring data and function code have a 4-bit structure and a 2-bit structure, respectively.

Figure 3a shows the bit configuration diagram of the monitoring data, and Figure 3b shows the bit configuration diagram of the function code.
~S3 stores the information of dead battery and tamper 1 alarm, respectively, and the data is ``1'' when it is abnormal and ``0'' when it is normal, and the function codes FO and Fl are the information for periodic transmission. When there is no information on the presence or absence of OFF output, "1" is placed, and when there is information, "0" is placed. Note that S3 is provided as a reserve, and no information is normally placed on it.

Here, the presence of periodic transmission means a so-called supervision function that transmits a signal from wireless transmitter A to receiver side B at fixed time intervals to detect abnormalities in the transmission system.
The FFFF output color is used when a wireless transmitter is attached to a device such as a window sensor that outputs ON when the window is open and outputs OFF when the window is closed, and when it is attached to a wireless transmitter that outputs ON when the window is opened and OFF when the window is closed. This setting is made so that the receiver B can distinguish the case where the receiver B is attached to something that is not installed, so that it does not interfere with display control.

In order to improve the reliability of such security signals, if an abnormality occurs in wireless transmitter A, 5 frames of signals are transmitted from wireless transmitter A at predetermined intervals, and 2 frames of signals are transmitted during periodic transmission. The signal is transmitted continuously at predetermined time intervals.

In contrast to the wireless transmitter A having the above-described configuration, the configuration of the receiver, which is a main part of the system of the present invention, is as shown in FIG.

The basic configuration of the receiver is the same as wireless transmitter A, consisting of a combination of a microcomputer and its peripheral equipment, but in order to facilitate understanding of the system of the present invention, FIG. The configuration of the device σ is shown as a block diagram combining means for realizing each function.

To explain with reference to the figure, receiver B has each mode setting switch 2 for switching to registration mode and warning mode.
7.28. Front end/decoder section 20. House code match determining means 21. ID code match determination means 23
．． System data registration means 221 for registering any wireless transmitter A in the system Display control switch 2
5, an ID code display 24a, and a monitoring data display 24b for displaying monitoring data (see FIG. 1 for both).
Security information display means 24, display data readout control means 35. and an alarm activation means 26 for driving an alarm.

The registration mode setting switch 27 is an initial registration switch 27a for realizing initial registration and additional registration, which will be described later.
and an additional registration switch 27b.

Referring to this figure, the basic operation of the receiver B constituting the system of the present invention will be explained.
When 7a is operated, receiver B is set to registration mode,
All data registered in the system data registration means 22 is erased.

When this initial registration mode is set, a security signal transmitted from the wireless transmitter A in the form of a radio wave signal is received by the antenna 2a, decoded by the front end/decoder section 20, and then the security signal is transmitted from the wireless transmitter A in the form of a radio signal. data, i.e. house code, security zone code,
unit code.

Monitoring data with a function code is retrieved (third
(see figure).

The decoded security data is thus input to the house code matching determination means 21, which determines whether the house code matches the house code previously set in the house code setting device 21a on the receiver side, and If the codes match, it is determined that the security signal is from the wireless transmitter A included in the system monitored by the receiver B, and is registered in the system data registration means 22.

In this way, the security signal transmitted from the wireless transmitter A is registered in the address of the system data registration means 22 one after another each time a match of the house code is confirmed, and the security signal transmitted from the wireless transmitter A is registered in the address of the system data registration means 22 one after another. An ID code consisting of a zone and unit code will be registered.

In this way, in the initial registration mode, all the data registered in the system data registration means 22 is cleared first, and all the ID codes of the wireless transmitter A received by the receiver B side are cleared in the system data registration means 22. 22
However, in the other additional registration mode, only the newly received ID codes of wireless transmitter A are successively registered without erasing the ID codes already registered in the system data registration means 22. It will be registered.

Then, registration is completed with these steps, and the registered ID is
The code can be confirmed by operating the display control switch 25 provided on the security information display means 24. That is, among the plurality of operation switches 25 provided on the security information display means 24,
Operate the scroll start switch 25a (1st a)
(see figure).

Then, the 1D code of the wireless transmitter A registered in the system data registration means 22 is sent to a display memory (not shown), and the 1D codes of the 10 codes are sent out one after another in the ascending order.
In the system of the present invention, only security signals having ID codes registered in the system data registration means 22 are processed when executing the alert mode, which will be described later. Therefore, by using such a scroll display, it is possible to easily confirm whether or not the wireless calling fiA to be registered has actually been registered.

FIG. 5 shows an example of a data table constituting the system data registration means, and in the figure, zone 8. A total of 64 wireless transmitters divided into units 8
The D code can be registered along with other data.

The registration of the ID code in the system data registration means 22 shown in FIG. 4 includes the function of directly registering the ID code of wireless transmitter A. Figure 5a, Figure 5
Data as shown in Figure b is recorded.

In other words, in the diagram shown in the separate figure, addresses with zones and unit codes assigned to all wireless transmitters A in the system are prepared in advance, and all units in zones 1 to 6 have a periodic transmission function. Only the wireless transmitters with the OFF output are registered (see Figure 5a), and ID code registration is performed by setting the corresponding registration identification flag "1". The configuration is such that the prescribed data r2 can be registered as is, and the confirmation flag f3 for periodic transmission, which will be described later, can also be set.In addition, a wireless transmitter without an OFF output is registered in the unit in zone 7.8, and The configuration is such that a corresponding registration identification flag "1" is set, data f4 defining the presence or absence of an OFF output of the wireless transmitter is registered, and a periodic transmission confirmation flag f3 can be set.

Note that the data [2, f4 shown here indicate what is included in the function code included in the security data from the wireless transmitter, and the flags fl and [3 are set on the receiver B side. It will be reset.

It goes without saying that if the system of the present invention does not have a supervisory function, the registration of data f4 and the setting and resetting of flag f3 are omitted.

When a table like the one shown in the figure is used to register the ID code, there is an advantage that the memory capacity can be reduced compared to the case where the ID code is directly registered.

Note that 0R4511 of the alarms U1 to U8 provided at the right end of the table is for storing abnormalities in monitoring data for each zone, and is provided to send an abnormality signal to the main controller side, which will be described later, for each zone. It is something that

FIG. 6 is a schematic flowchart illustrating the operation of the registration mode executed in the system of the present invention.

As mentioned above, the registration mode can be set to two types: initial registration mode and additional registration mode, and when you operate either registration mode switch, step too
In each of o and tooi, an initial registration mode and an additional registration mode are distinguished, and if the initial registration mode is set, the process advances to step 1006 and all data registered in the data table 22 is erased, but if the additional registration mode is When set, such table clearing is not performed and the process directly advances to step 1002.

In step 7''1002, the input to the front end/decoder section 20 is determined, and if there is an input, it is determined whether the house code matches (step 1003).

The house code is determined by checking whether the house code of the security signal received and decoded by the front end/decoder unit 20 matches the house code preset in the receiver B. Then, the ID code of the security data is displayed on the security information display means 24 and registered in the data table 22 (steps 1004 and 1005).
), but if it is determined in step 1003 that the house codes do not match, the security data 10 code is only displayed on the security information display means 24 and is not registered in the data table 22 (step 1
007).

The above-described procedure is repeated every time there is an input from the decoder section 20, and ID codes whose house codes are confirmed to match are sequentially registered in the data table 22.

(After the ID code of the wireless transmitter is registered in the system data registration means 22, as described above,
The scroll start switch 25a of the display control switch 25 provided on the security information display means 24 is operated. Then, regardless of the registration order, the ID codes registered in a predetermined order are scrolled and displayed, so it can be easily confirmed whether the wireless transmitter in the target security zone has been registered.

In this case, if the ID code is not registered depending on the registration mode, for example, rOJ
rOJ and blank are displayed, and when an ID code is registered, rOJ rOJ is erased and the registered ID code is displayed. In order to facilitate the display of completion of the scroll display, All you have to do is insert a blank display.

FIG. 7 shows a flowchart executed to confirm the ID code registered in the registration mode, and the data table shown in FIG. 5 is used as the system data registration means 22. step 2000
→2011 is a routine that executes the ID code registration motor, steps 2012.2013-2019 are scroll display routines that are executed to confirm the registered ID code, and steps 2023→2029 are the registered ID code routines.
The step amplifier display routine is executed to check the D code one by one by operating the step-up switch 25C, and steps 2032→2040 are the program shown in the example diagram 0 showing the step-down display routine executed by operating the step-down switch 25d. Now, when the scroll start switch 25a is operated, the scroll display routine is executed, and the tD code display 24a shows the following:
Registered ID codes are displayed in order from the first (youngest) address. Then, operate the scroll stop switch 25b and step up switch 2.
5C, when the step-down switch 25d is operated, the parameter n is incremented (indicated as Inc) and decremented (indicated as Dec), respectively, and the code display 24a displays step-up and step-down codes in order from the next ID code. The down display is started.

In the example, the parameter n is set to a maximum of 63 to match the maximum number of addresses, 64, of the data table (hereinafter referred to as blank space).

The operation in the registration mode has been described above, but in this system, when the alarm mode setting switch 2 provided on the receiver B is operated, the following alarm mode is executed.

An outline of the operation in this alert mode is shown in FIG. 8, so the operation in this mode will be explained with reference to this figure.When the input of the decoder section 20 is confirmed in step 3000, in step 3001, the operation in this mode will be explained. , match of the house codes is determined in the same manner as in the registration mode. Data for which house code matching has been confirmed is processed in step 30.
In step 02, it is further determined whether the ID codes match, and the registration is confirmed. In this way, the security data whose registration has been confirmed is classified into monitoring data in steps 3003→3005, and if any of the monitoring data has an abnormality, the process proceeds to step 3006, where an alarm is activated and the security information display means is displayed. 24, the ID code and monitoring data are displayed (step 3007).

On the other hand, if the house code and ID code do not match in step 3001, the ID code of the received security signal is displayed on the ID code display (step 300B).

FIG. 9 shows a configuration in which the system of the present invention is further expanded, and is provided with a condition memory 29 that stores the monitoring data together with the ID code each time a security signal is received from the wireless transmitter A. It shows.

In a system provided with such a condition memory 29, information on the occurrence of abnormality in the system is stored, so that the cause of theft or fire can be determined later. In a system including such a condition memory 29, it is desirable to store the security data received from the wireless transmitter A in the order in which they occurred, and to read them out in the order in which they occurred.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing the relationship between the condition memory and the security information display means 24, and the condition memory 29 stores 16 steps of monitoring data in its interface.
The ID code of the security data and the monitoring data are stored in steps 1 to 16 in order of occurrence.

When reading out stored data, when a display data readout control means (not shown) is activated, step 1 is performed.
The 10 codes are read out sequentially from the data stored in the 7-segment display 24 provided for each zone and unit.
In a, the monitoring data is displayed by lighting up the LED display 24b corresponding to the data.

Here, among the LED indicators 24b, rAJ is a warning signal (alarm), and rTJ is a tamper signal.

rLJ indicates a dead battery signal, but in a system that includes periodic transmission abnormality determining means, which will be described later, an indicator light rsJ indicating periodic transmission abnormality is further provided (see FIG. 1).

FIG. 11 shows an example of a flowchart executed when monitoring data stored in the condition memory 29 is displayed together with an ID code.

Steps 4000-4010 are the display control switch 25
The data executed when the scroll start switch 25a is operated and stored in the memory 29 are displayed one after another on the security display means 24 at 2 second intervals in the order of occurrence, and if the data is not registered, The display will be blank. In addition, to indicate the division of data in 16 steps, after displaying a series of registered data,
A blank display is provided.

Further, steps 4011→4018 show a so-called step amplifier display routine, which is started by operating the scroll stop switch 25b and the step up switch 25C, as in the case of checking the 10 codes in the registration mode. be done. In this example, the step-up display differs from the scroll display in that the step-up display is performed sequentially starting with the next data.

Furthermore, steps 4019-4025 indicate a step-down display routine that is started by operating the step-down switch 25d. Similar to the step amplifier display routine, this routine also has a structure in which the next data is sequentially displayed in a step-down manner.

Further, by further expanding the system of the present invention, it is also possible to configure the system to check for abnormalities in the periodic transmission of the wireless transmitter A.

FIG. 12 shows a basic configuration diagram of the system in this case, in which the above-mentioned condition memory 29 is added to the basic system shown in FIG. 30 has been added.

The basic configuration is the same as in Figures 4 and 9, so
The configuration of the periodic transmission abnormality determination means and its determination principle will be described without repeating the explanation of the overlapping parts.

To determine whether there is an abnormality in periodic transmission, register the ID code of wireless transmitter A as well as the function code Fo (see Figure 5b) that specifies periodic transmission in the address of the system data registration means 22. If there is a periodic transmission from the transmitter A, the configuration is such that the periodic transmission confirmation flag f3 can be set as described above (see FIGS. 5 to 5b).

Then, the set state of the confirmation flag f3 is determined at intervals sufficiently longer than the periodic transmission time interval of the wireless transmitter A, and the confirmation flag f3 is then reset. The period for checking this periodic transmission can be set using a timer means, and if the wireless transmitter A to be monitored requires particular reliability, the number of timer means can be made to wait individually. If this is not required, a configuration may be adopted in which one timer means is used in common.

For example, FIG. 13 shows a case in which one timer means is used in common for the abnormality determination operation of such periodic transmission, and the set time of the timer means is specified as 4 hours.
The periodic transmission time interval of the wireless transmitter is shown set to 1.2 hours.

When there is a regular transmission from the wireless transmitter A, the front end/decoder section 20 receives and decodes it and extracts the security data. The ID code matching determination means 2
3, it is determined whether the received wireless transmitter A is registered.

As a result of this determination, if it is confirmed that the wireless transmitter A is registered, a periodic transmission confirmation flag f3 is set in the corresponding address of the system data registration means 22, indicating that periodic transmission has occurred. Ru. In this way, the wireless transmitter A performs regular transmission every 1.2 hours, and the system data registration means 22 sets the regular transmission confirmation flag "3" to the corresponding address each time.

On the other hand, the regular transmission abnormality determination means 30 determines the state of the regular transmission confirmation flag f3 set in the system data registration means 22 at each set time of the timer means, that is, every time the timer means times out. That is, when the timer means time amplifies, the system data registration means 2
The regular transmission confirmation flags f3 of the addresses specified as having periodic transmission No. 2 are referred to all at once, and when the determination of the confirmation flags f3 is completed, the set flags are reset.

At the time of such determination, if the flag has been reset, it is determined to be a periodic transmission abnormality, and the periodic transmission abnormality information and 10 code are displayed on the security information display means 24, and at the same time, the alarm activation means 26
Necessary measures, such as setting off alarms, will be taken through the system. Furthermore, in a system provided with the condition memory 29, the abnormality data (supervisor trouble) at this time is stored together with the ID code.

Figure 13 shows the logical operation for determining an abnormality in periodic transmission of one specific wireless transmitter, and (a)
(b) is the status of the regular transmission confirmation flag, (c) is the abnormality determination timing by the timer means, and (d) is the regular transmission that occurs when determining an abnormality in the regular transmission. Indicates an abnormal signal (supervisor trouble alarm).

5000→5018 in FIG. 14 shows an example of a flowchart when abnormality determination of regular transmission is incorporated during execution of the warning mode.

In this program, for convenience of explanation, every time the timer times up, all addresses O in the data table 22 are
Although periodical transmission is confirmed by referring to steps 63 to 63, it goes without saying that other programs may be used to confirm the periodic transmission.

Furthermore, Figures 15<a) to (C) show the abnormality determination operation of regular transmission when one timer means (setting time is 4 hours) is provided in correspondence with one wireless transmitter. In this case, each time there is a reception input for periodic transmission from wireless transmitter A, the corresponding timer means is reset, so that reception is not received within the set time (4 hours) of the timer means. If not confirmed, the timer means times out and generates a supervisor trouble alarm.

6000-6018 in Fig. 16 is a specific usage example of Fig. 15, which has an individual timer means in a zone 6 wireless transmitter for the purpose of monitoring fire sensors etc. that require high accuracy. This example shows an example in which a periodic transmission abnormality determination routine is incorporated into a warning mode program for a wireless transmitter in zone 6. Unit codes 1 to 8 are assigned to each wireless transmitter in zone 6, and the corresponding 4-hour timer is assigned to each wireless transmitter in zone 6. v-UNIT (n) 4H is provided. 6011
-6018 indicates a subroutine that is executed by referring to the periodic transmission confirmation flag for each unit.

In the system of the present invention having the above-described functions, when setting the registration mode, the ID code of the wireless transmitter can be registered, and when in the alert mode, among the security signals from the wireless transmitter A received by the receiver B, the ID code of the wireless transmitter can be registered. Although it is possible to configure the system to process only those registered in the registration mode, it is also possible to set the test mode by devising a program that executes the system of the present invention.

7000→7021 in FIG. 17 shows the basic operation in the test mode. After the registration mode is finished, press the test mode setting switch (shown as test switch 31 in the example in FIG. 1a). If you do so, the alarm LED that blinks when an alarm signal is received will blink to indicate that you have entered the test mode (step 7001), and the 10 code display 24a of the security information display means 24 will display the registered wireless transmitter. A's ID code is scrolled in sequence at 2 second intervals (7005→7009)
When executing this program, it is sufficient to first read the data registered in the data table 22 into another display memory, and then read the data in this memory when displaying.

Then, when the wireless transmitter A is made to emit a test signal and the received security signal is determined to be an alarm signal on the receiver B side, the ID code is sequentially erased from the above-mentioned scroll display. <(701
5 → 7021), if the received and decoded security signal is not an alarm signal due to a test operation but another abnormal signal (e.g. tamper signal, dead battery signal), activates the alarm and The abnormal data is stored in the condition memory 29 along with the ID code (7015
→7020).

If you run the test mode in this way, the ID codes of wireless transmitters that are operating normally will be erased from the scroll display, and the ID codes of wireless transmitters that have not completed test operation will remain in the scroll display. left behind. In addition, as for the wireless transmitter in which an abnormality has occurred, its ID code and abnormality data are stored in the condition memory 29, making it easy to deal with the occurrence of an abnormality and to check operation during testing. All you need to do is test the wireless transmitters randomly on site.
This also has the advantage of easy maintenance.

Incidentally, in the above explanation, the configurations of the wireless transmitter A and the receiver B, which are the main components of the present invention, have been explained in detail. However, when considering the actual usage of the system of the present invention, it is necessary to install a main controller in the receiver. A connected system configuration is common.

Therefore, the following describes the system configuration when the main controller is connected to the receiver.

In configuring the system, the requirements for the main controller are to set a warning zone and to provide a display means to display abnormalities in the warning zone.In the latter case, the abnormality should not be displayed. , any configuration that can display each warning zone is fine.

FIG. 18 shows the external configuration of the main controller MC, in which warning switches 51 to 58 . Warning indicator lamps 51a to 58 that display the setting status by lighting them
a. It is configured to include warning lamps 51b to 58b that blink when an abnormality occurs in a zone under warning, an alarm device 50, and a reset switch 59 for restoring the system.

In addition, in order to execute a special vigilance mode described later, home vigilance 61. A going-out warning switch 62 and corresponding operation indicator lamps 61a and 62a are provided, as well as a test mode setting switch 63 for executing the above-mentioned test mode and its indicator lamp 63a. In this example, since the receiver B is integrated into the main controller MC, the antenna 2a is provided.

FIG. 19 is a circuit configuration diagram of a switch group provided on the main controller MC side, and FIG. 20 is a circuit configuration diagram of its display section, and the same symbols as those shown in FIG. 18 are given. The corresponding figures are shown below.

When configuring such a system, it is necessary to transmit the signal processed on the receiver B side to the main controller MC side. It is necessary to properly pass the data that is sent and received.

In the system of the present invention, it is particularly important to pay attention to the case where the abnormal signal (security data) processed on the receiver B side is transmitted to the main controller MC side for display. It is necessary to consider the characteristics of the attached sensor.

As mentioned above, some of the wireless transmitters A of the present invention detect the opening and closing of a window, etc., and transmit a security signal when the window is opened and closed. , some devices transmit a detection signal as a security signal only at the moment of detection.

If such a signal is processed on the receiver B side, it can be treated as an abnormal signal as shown in -, but when transmitting a signal for display to the main controller MC side, the display should match the sensor operation. In order to do so, signals specifying these types must be transmitted.

In consideration of this, in the system of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5b, a function code is provided in the security signal transmitted from the wireless transmitter A, and the function code F
1, the two are distinguished by defining data indicating whether there is an OFF output or not. In this case, a function code with an OFF output means a device configured to send an OFF signal when a window is closed, such as a window sensor, and a function code without an OFF output means a device configured to send an OFF signal when a window is closed, such as a window sensor. This means that no OFF signal is sent to the terminal.

When the security data with such a function code is sent from the receiver B side to the main controller MC side, on the main controller MC side,
For those without OFF output, after the security data is sent, - fixed time alarm lamps 51a to 58a
It is sufficient to display the warning lamp by lighting it up, and for those with an OFF output, it is sufficient to keep the alarm lamp blinking until the OFF output is received.

In addition, in the above configuration, when receiver B receives a security signal from wireless transmitter A in the alert mode, if the house codes match and registration is confirmed, the alarm is activated, and at the same time, the security signal is The ID code of the wireless transmitter that transmitted the message and the monitoring data are displayed on the display unit 24, but in an actual system, such detailed information is not necessary, and it is possible to display in which zone an abnormality has occurred. It would be good if it could be displayed depending on the operation of the sensor.

For this reason, on the main controller MC side, alarm lamps (LEDs) 51b to 58b are provided corresponding to each zone.

(Left below) Next, the necessary configuration for receiving and passing signals between the main controller MC and the receiver B will be described.

Table 1 shows the structure of a memory used as a communication unit to hand over data transmitted from the receiver B to the main controller MC side.

(Leaving space below) As shown in Table 1, the communicator installed on the receiver B side constitutes a 4-byte data packet, and the 2nd and 3rd bytes are used to connect the receiver B side to the main controller MC. It constitutes a TEXT area that stores data sent to the other side. The second byte is a status byte for receiver B, in which the control signal from receiver B is stored together with the status, and the third byte is a channel byte containing flags 21 to Z8 indicating the warning zone where the abnormality has occurred. are assigned and configured.

The first byte stores hexadecimal data 02, and the fourth byte is provided for checking the data of the second and third bytes.

Here, in the NXTPMSG, when this flag changes from 0 to 1, the main controller MC side can update the current message buffer that stores the message to be sent to the receiver B side, but until this flag changes from 0 to 1,
The main controller MC side is required to continue sending the same message.

In addition, DEV I CE stores the assigned address of receiver B, and RFU stores the unused area, R
FPAIL is also for memory check, so when a trouble occurs in the memory on the receiver B side, the flag is set from 0 to 1.

TAMPER, LOBAT, and 5UPERV are status flags indicating a tamper signal, a dead battery signal, and a periodic transmission abnormality, respectively. When an abnormality occurs, these flags are set.

Furthermore, flags 21 to Z8 of zones where an abnormality has occurred are set in the channel area.

Table 2 shows the configuration of a memory for passing data from the main controller MC side to the receiver B side as a communicator.

(Leaving space below) As shown in Table 2, the communicator provided on the main controller MC side constitutes a 5-byte data packet, and the 2nd to 4th bytes are from the main controller MC side to the receiver B side. The second byte is the controller MC control status byte, the third byte is the bypass setting byte, and the fourth byte is the 24-hour alert setting byte. ing. The 3rd byte bypass setting and 4th byte 24 hour warning setting are for each zone 21 to z8.
This is done by setting a flag in the pit assigned to the pit. Further, the first byte stores data 02 in hexadecimal, and the fifth byte is provided for a thumb check of the data of the second byte, the tenth byte, and the third byte.

Here, in NXTPMSG, when this flag changes from O to 1, the receiver B side can update the current message buffer that stores the message to be sent to the controller MC, but until this flag changes from 0 to 1, Device B is required to continue sending the same message.

Also, DEVICE stores the address assigned to receiver B, and TSTMODE is a flag that is set from 0 to 1 when set to test mode, and while this flag is set, other The COMMAND bit is ignored. TMPSTORF writes an abnormal signal generated only in a warning zone where bypass or 24-hour warning has not been set to temporary memory (described later). While this flag is 1, bypass or 24-hour warning is not set. An abnormal signal generated only in a warning zone for which no warning setting has been made is written to the temporary memory, but while this flag is 0, the abnormal signal is not written to the temporary memory or condition memory.

The types of COMMANDs shown in Table 3 are used in the system of the present invention.

(Left below) Table 3 [Commands to receiver] The contents of such COMMAND are as follows.
