Figure 2 shows the human power format of the mode selection cart for selecting the mode, which is human power card 2, and the specific function option card for changing the option of a specific function. Figure 3 shows the contents of the function default option table. Contains default values for options that correspond to the feature.

To explain the default values here, a control type program function that has multiple execution modes has multiple modes that determine the operation of the function. It is necessary to specify all the execution modes of the functions or to have a pattern of combinations of functions as the execution mode of the control type program.For this purpose, a finite number of execution modes of the control program are determined, and each function in this execution mode is specified. The execution mode is set to "Function Default".

Since table 9 is managed by a library, the mode can be changed while the control type program is being executed.

The mode setting processing unit 8 refers to the function default option table 9 and sets options in the function option table 11 according to the mode selected by the input cart 2.

FIG. 4 shows the contents of the function option table 11, in which options for each function are stored. The control type program has two types of functions: control type functions such as O8 control and console output, and value return type functions that refer to the O8 table and return values such as system information and time to the control type program. There is.

FIG. 4(A) shows the contents of the function option table for the control type function, and FIG. 4(B) shows the contents of the function option table for the value return type function.

FIG. 5 shows the manual command format for changing the options and execution mode of a specific function.

Specific function option cards and mode selection carts are specified when starting a control type program, and if you want to change function options or execution modes during execution, use commands to change the options.

FIG. 6 shows the flow of processing when a control type function is selected from the object to be tested. Function selection process 61 selects whether the function notified by the test object is a function such as
Function options are determined by function option table reference processing 62.

Thereafter, actual processing is assigned in option mode selection processing 63.

This process includes an O8 control process 64 that actually controls the O8 and console output, and a simulator communication process 65 that communicates with the simulator and simulates control-type functions.

When the O5 control processing 64 and the simulator communication processing 65 are completed, the processing of the function selected by the object to be tested is completed.

FIG. 7 shows the flow of processing when a value return type function is selected by the object to be tested. A function selection process 71 selects whether the function notified by the test object is one of the following functions, and a function option table reference process 72 determines the option of the function. Thereafter, actual processing is assigned in option mode selection processing 73.

This process includes an OS table reference process 74 that actually refers to the OS table and returns a value, a simulator communication process 75 that communicates with the simulator, refers to a table in the simulator, and returns a value, and a function option table There is a function option table reference process 76 that returns a certain value.

When the OS table reference processing 74, simulator communication processing 75, and function option table reference processing 76 are completed, the processing of the function selected by the object to be tested ends.

FIG. 8 shows the flow of processing at the time of card input. When executing a control type program, a function option table (fourth
Each function of the control type program refers to this function option table 11 to determine the execution of each function.

This function option table 11 is created immediately after the control type program is executed, and is created by reading the execution mode of the control type program and the execution mode of the specific function from the manual cart 2 which is an external input. The flow of processing for creating the function option table 11 is shown in FIG.

In this way, by determining the execution mode of each function immediately after executing the control program, it is possible to evaluate only a specific function.

FIG. 9 shows the flow of processing when inputting a command.

During execution of the control type program, the function option table 11 is updated by inputting a command, and the flow of the process of updating the function option table 11 is shown in FIG.

As mentioned above, each function of the control type program updates the function option table 11 in order to determine the execution mode of the function by referring to the function option table. This makes it possible to change the execution mode.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to evaluate only a specific function of a control type program, and change the specific function or execution mode of the program by inputting a command while the control type program is being executed, thereby improving evaluation efficiency.
