An object of the present invention is to provide an excellent automatic operation device capable of automatically starting and stopping a specific device for a preset period when an abnormality occurs in the temperature sensor input.

[0008]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is provided with an automatic operation stop switch dedicated to each device for operating and stopping operation of an air conditioner, a preheater, etc. for a specific period, and when the automatic operation is performed. The device controls the device according to the stored automatic operation data, and when the automatic operation is stopped, the operation control of the specific device can be easily stopped. In addition, an external temperature sensor input terminal is provided so that each device can be automatically operated and stopped automatically by the temperature sensor input, and the specified device operation period can be used regardless of the temperature sensor input acceptance period data and the temperature sensor input. The input means for inputting the data and the storage means for storing the input data are provided so as to control the operation of the specific device even when an abnormality occurs in the sensor input.

[0009]

[Advantage] With the above-mentioned configuration, the operation of the specific equipment that does not need to be operated depending on the season, the stop switch or the input of the external temperature sensor automatically controls the operation of the specific equipment without changing the automatic operation pattern data. can do.

Further, by making it possible to set the data of the temperature sensor input acceptance period of a specific device and the operating period of the specific device, even when an abnormality of the temperature sensor occurs, the specific device is automatically operated for a set period of time. can do.

1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the first to third embodiments of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a flow chart showing the operation of the first embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, 1 is a control unit, 2 is a keyboard for inputting data such as (Table 1), (Table 2), (Table 3), (Table 4) and (Table 5) below. The processed data is sent to the RA via the control unit 1.
It is stored in M6.

[0012]

[Table 4]

[0013]

[Table 5]

A display unit 3 displays data input from the keyboard 2, the operating state of the external device interface unit 7, the date and time output from the perpetual calendar 4, and the like via the control unit 1. The control unit 1 uses the data of the perpetual calendar 4, the data of the RAM 6, the input status of the device switch 9, and the input status of the temperature sensor 10 to determine the ROM
The external device 8 is controlled via the external device interface section 7 according to the software stored in.

Next, the operation of the first embodiment will be described. In the first embodiment, the control unit 1 monitors and controls according to the flow of the flow chart of FIG. 2, and stores the data stored in the RAM 6, the input status of the device switch 9, and the data output from the perpetual calendar 4. When they match, the external device 8 is controlled via the external device interface unit 7. As described above, according to the first embodiment, by opening and closing the device switch 9, the automatic operation control of the specific device is activated,
It has the advantage that it can be stopped and there is no need to change each pattern data.

Next, the operation of the second embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing the operation of the second embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, the control unit 1 performs monitoring and control according to the flow of the flow chart of FIG. 3, and the data stored in the RAM 6, the input status from the temperature sensor 10, and the data output from the perpetual calendar 4 match. At this time, the external device 8 is controlled via the external device interface unit 7. As described above, according to the second embodiment, the automatic operation control of the specific device can be activated and deactivated by the input from the temperature sensor 10, and it is not necessary to change each pattern data. .

A third embodiment of the present invention will be described.
FIG. 4 is a flow chart showing the operation of the third embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, the data of (Table 4) and (Table 5) input from the keyboard 2 is passed through the control unit 1 to R
It is stored in AM6. When the control unit 1 performs monitoring and control according to the flow chart of FIG. 4 and the data stored in the RAM 6, the input data from the temperature sensor 10 and the data output from the perpetual calendar 4 match. The external device 8 is controlled via the external device interface unit 7. Thus, according to the third embodiment, the RAM 6
By storing the data of (Table 4) and (Table 5) in the specified device, whether the automatic operation control of the specified device is activated or stopped depends on the input condition from the temperature sensor 10 and even when the temperature sensor 10 is abnormal. Has the advantage of controlling.
