Abstract

PURPOSE:To recording information which are temporarily displayed on a CRT and reloaded to new information to a tape and to easily analyze data at the time of a fault by providing a picture control part, a video control part and a video deck. CONSTITUTION:The data to be sent to a picture control part 2 are accumulated in a buffer in the picture control part 2 until information quantity by one screen is obtained and when this buffer is filled up, the data by one screen are sent to a video control part 4. The video control part 4 converts the data by one screen which are sent to a signal which can be recorded to a video and the data by one screen are recorded to a video deck 5. The video deck 5 records the data by one screen sent from the video control part 4, and the data corresponding to one screen of the CRT by a control signal to the tape. Thus, the picture information to be displayed on a CRT 3 are simultaneously divided one by one screen and recorded to the video deck 5. Thus, the data are easily analyzed at the time of the fault.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to general electronic equipment, and particularly to a console for controlling a computer.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, in this type of operation console, all data input by the operator or data responded by the computer is transferred to the CRT.
The operator then outputs the data to a connected printer as needed.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The above-mentioned conventional operation console does not accept operator input information or
All information output from the computer was printed and saved using a printer. However, this has the drawback of printing out unnecessary information or forgetting to take out necessary information.

[Means to solve the problem]

The console of the present invention includes a screen control section that divides and controls data output to a CRT into screens, and a screen control section that receives data for one screen of the CRT, converts it into a video input signal, and controls the video deck. It has a video control section and a video deck that records sent screen data.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention. The console control unit 1 controls the entire operation console, and the CRT 3
and outputs input information from the operator or output information from the computer to the screen control section 2. The video control unit 4 converts the information for one screen sent from the screen control unit 2 into a signal that can be recorded on video, and
It is output to the video deck 5 along with the control signal. The video deck 5 records one screen worth of information sent from the video control section 4 in accordance with a control signal from the video control section 4.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained. Operator input information or computer output information is normally sent to the CRT 3 by the console control section 1 and displayed on the CRT 3.

The CRT 3 sequentially displays the information sent to the screen, and when the screen becomes full, scrolls the screen to display new information. On the other hand, the data sent to the screen control section 2 is stored in a buffer within the screen control section 2 until the amount of information for one screen is reached, and when this buffer is full, the data is sent to the video control section 4 along with the control signal. Sends data for the screen.

The video control unit 4 receives one screen worth of data,
It converts it into a video recordable signal and sends out the data together with a control signal so that one screen worth of data is recorded on the video deck 5. The video decks record data corresponding to one screen of a CRT on tape in response to data for one screen and control signals sent from the video control section 4.

In this way, the screen information being displayed on the CRTB is simultaneously divided one screen at a time and recorded on the video deck 5.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention provides CR
Information that is temporarily displayed on T and then rewritten with new information can be recorded on tape. This makes it easier to analyze data in the event of a failure, eliminates waste of printing paper, and prevents data from being forgotten.
