Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate quick counter measure by reporting the name of a sensor and the name of a user when the sensor is driven at the time of a normal condition, and the number or the name of the sensor and the number of the user at the time of power failure by voice information respectively. CONSTITUTION:When the sensor is started at the time of the normal condition, the flags of the name of the user and the name of the sensor are checked, and in the case where they are recorded, a sound recording/reproducing IC 11 is driven so as to report in a voice. Here, in the case where they are not recorded, a speech synthesizing IC is driven, and the name of the user and the name of the sensor are reported by the number of the user and the number of the sensor respectively. When a battery 11 is disconnected at the time of the power failure, since recorded data stored in the DRAM 12 of a volatile memory and a user name recording flag and a sensor name recording flag are lost, the name of the user is reported by the number of the user, and the name of the sensor is reported by the number of the sensor or the name of the sensor. Thus, quick dealing can be realized.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an abnormality reporting device that automatically reports an abnormality using an audio signal when a sensor abnormality occurs.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, devices have been proposed that monitor multiple locations and automatically notify a predetermined destination when an abnormality occurs in the monitoring results. In this case, if there is an abnormality, a lamp indicating the abnormality is lit and a buzzer or the like is often used to warn the user.

However, when the number of monitored locations increases, it is better to directly notify the location of an abnormality via voice than simply sounding a buzzer, allowing for quicker and more appropriate response. For this reason, a system has been proposed in which the user can freely record the user name and sensor name through settings, and when an abnormality occurs, the abnormal location is reported using the voice recorded by the user. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in such a device, the recorded audio data is stored in the SRAM. Since it is stored in volatile memory such as DRAM, if there is a long-term power outage that exceeds the capacity of the battery backup knob and the recorded data is lost, or if you forget to record it, you will not be able to receive a voice notification. The challenge was to make it possible.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to solve such problems, the first invention provides a volatile registration flag memory that stores registration flags for user names and sensor names, and a volatile registration flag memory that stores registration flags for user names and sensor names. A voice synthesis unit that synthesizes and outputs a user number and a plurality of sensor numbers, and a control that drives the voice synthesis unit to synthesize and output a user number and corresponding sensor numbers when there is no memory of a registration flag when a sensor abnormality is input. It is equipped with a section. A second invention is based on the first invention, and further includes a second non-volatile memory for registering a sensor name selected from a list of speech synthesis data stored in a non-volatile memory of a speech synthesis unit, and a registration flag when an abnormality is input from the sensor. and a control unit that activates a speech synthesis unit to output the sensor name based on the sensor name registered in the nonvolatile memory when there is no memory of the sensor name. [Operation] In the first and second inventions, when the sensor is activated in a state where no power outage has occurred, the sensor name and user name are reported. At the time of a power outage, the first invention reports the sensor number and user number instead of the sensor name and user name, and the second invention reports the sensor name and user number. [Example] ? Figure 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of a device to which this invention is applied. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a recording/reproducing section, which is composed of a recording/reproducing ICI 1 and a DRAM 12. 2 is a speech synthesis section, which is composed of a speech synthesis IC 21 and a ROM 22. The recording/reproduction IC 1 t and the voice synthesis IC 2 are controlled by the CPU 3 via a PPI (parallel interface IC) 4.

Recorded voice data is stored in DRAM■, voice synthesis data is stored in E
It is stored in EPROM 5, and includes a recording/playback IC Il and a voice synthesis IC 2. The output is amplified by an amplifier 6 and sent via a transformer 7 to line terminals Ll and L2. Setting the user number, recording the user name, sensor name, or registering voice synthesis can be performed by setting the switch 8 to the setting side and putting the device in the setting mode. In the setting mode, you can also configure other functions of this device such as dial type, reporting method, sensor make/break settings, etc.
It is designed to set operating conditions. The user number is the highest priority setting item, and other settings cannot be made unless the user number is set. Since the set data is stored in EEFROM 5, it will not be lost even if the power is turned off. The user name and sensor name can be registered by the user's voice from the microphone M.
Furthermore, instead of having the user record their own voice for the sensor name, there is a data list in the non-volatile memory of the speech synthesis section that is divided into syllables, from which the user can select any syllable. You can select and combine them and register them. If a user name or sensor name is recorded, the user name recording flag and sensor name recording flag are set, and if a sensor name is registered from the voice synthesis data list, the sensor name synthesis flag is set. There is. In this case, the username recording flag. The sensor name recording flag is set in volatile memory, and the sensor name synthesis flag is set in nonvolatile memory.

The circuit power supply ■dd is rectified from ACIOOV and is connected to the power supply circuit 9.
Is the power supply voltage supplied through the power supply voltage? Detection circuit 1
When the power supply is switched to the battery 11 due to a power outage and the power supply voltage drops due to the capacity limit of the battery, the power supply voltage detection circuit 10 detects this and notifies the PPI 4 of the same. When a drop in the power supply voltage is transmitted to the PPI 4, in order to prevent the circuit from running out of control, the relay BT is deenergized, the battery 11 is disconnected, and the operation is stopped.

When the sensor is activated here, the set status is checked by checking the user name/sensor name flags. If each is recorded, use the recording/playback IC
II to make a voice report, and if it is not recorded, drive the voice synthesis IC to report the user name with the user number.
Report the sensor name using the sensor number. As mentioned above, when the battery 11 is disconnected, power is no longer supplied. The recorded data, user name recording flag, and sensor name recording flag stored in DRAML (volatile memory) will be lost. Therefore, when the power is restored and the program is started from the initial set, the recorded data will have been lost and voice notifications using the recorded data will not be possible. However, in this case, the state is the same as the non-recording state described above, so the recording/playback ICI is driven,
The user name is reported by the user number, and the senna name is reported by the sensor number (in the second invention, the sensor name is reported for the sensor).

Note that the Senna number is a channel number determined by the device, and 12 is a ROM.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing the operation of this device.

In the figure, after initializing the circuit and resetting all recording flags in steps 100 and 101,
In step 102, the setting switch is set to the setting side. After it is determined in step 103 that the user number is registered, the user number key is manually processed in step 104, it is determined that the user name is recorded in step 105, and it is determined that the start operation has been performed in step 106. Step 10
At step 7, processing to start recording the user name area is performed.

When it is determined in step 108 that the recording has ended, processing for setting the user name recording flag is performed in step 109.

After it is determined in step 105 that the user name is not recorded, in step 110 it is determined that sensor 1 is registered, in step 111 it is determined that the sensor name is recorded, and in step 112 it is determined that the start operation has been performed. In step 113, processing for starting recording of sensor name 1 area is performed. When it is determined in step 114 that recording has ended, processing for setting the sensor name 1 recording flag is performed in step 115. The processing of steps 116 to 119 corresponds to the second invention. In this case, the nonvolatile memory contains a list of speech synthesis data divided into necessary syllables, and the necessary data are selected from this data list, combined, and used. For example, the data list stores data for each syllable, such as "on the 7th floor,""stairs,""nearby," and "fire." By selecting and combining them, "near the stairs of 7 goods." There is a fire.The process in steps 116 to 119 will be executed in step 11.
In step 6, it is determined whether the sensor name l is registered for speech synthesis. If this step is judged as rYES, step 1
As shown in 17-119, enter the phrase selection code, EE
The process of registering the code in the PROM sensor name 1 area and setting the sensor name 1 synthesis flag is performed in sequence.

If it is determined in step 110 that sensor 1 is not registered, it is determined in step 120 whether sensor 2 is registered. If this step is determined as “rYES”,
The same processing as steps 111 to 119 (however, the sensor name becomes 2) is performed. However, if it is determined in step 120 that sensor 2 is not registered, it is sequentially determined whether it is the next sensor or not, and finally it is determined that sensor n is registered. If it is any sensor, the same processing as steps 111 to 119 is performed.

on the other hand. If it is determined in step 102 that the setting switch is not set, then in step 140 it is determined whether the sensor 1 is on.

If it is determined that this step is "rYES", the CML relay is controlled to be in an on state in step 141,
In step 142, it is determined whether the user name registration flag is "1". If this is determined to be "1", that is, the user name registration flag is set,
In step 143, processing is performed to utter the voice reproduction TC user name, but if it is determined that it has not been set, then processing to utter the voice synthesis IC user number is performed in step 144.

When either step 143 or 144 is performed, the recording flag for sensor name 1 is set to "
1" is determined.

If it is determined that the sensor name recording flag is "1", it has been set, so processing for recording/reproducing IC sensor name 1 utterance is performed in step 146. If it is determined in step 145 that the sensor name I recording flag is not r1, then in step 147 sensor name
It is determined whether the composition flag is "1" or not. If this step is determined to be rYES, the speech synthesis IC sensor name 1 is uttered in step 148, and rN
o. If so, in step 149, voice synthesis IC sensor number 1 utters 9J! ! The process is carried out. When either step 148 or 149 is performed, CML and relay-off processing is performed in step 150.

If it is determined in step 140 that sensor 1 is not on, then in step 160 it is determined whether sensor 2 is on. Here, if sensor 2 is on, the same processing as steps 141 to 150 is performed, but if it is determined that it is not on, it is sequentially determined whether the next sensor is on. If it is determined that none of the sensors is on, it is determined in step 170 whether sensor n is on, and if this is on, the stepper 141.
The same processing as in step 50 is performed.

Note that although the above embodiment has described an apparatus that performs battery backup, the battery and voltage detection circuit may be omitted if battery backup is not performed.
Alternatively, the sensor name synthesis flag may be omitted and whether or not a voice synthesis sensor name has been registered may be directly checked.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, the first invention stores the sensor number and user number in a non-volatile memory, so even in the event of a power outage or when you forget to record the sensor name/user name, the sensor number can be stored. and the user number can be announced by voice information. According to the second aspect of the invention, even when a power outage occurs or when the user forgets the settings, it is possible to notify the sensor name and user number using audio information. Therefore, sensor abnormalities are notified by voice, which has the effect of allowing prompt response.
