The OFF times 25 are obtained, and these are stored in the TPGs 22 and 23, and each setting of the TPGs 22 and 23 is automatically performed.

That is, when the initial set value or change settings TPG21～23, timetable AH ₁ ~AH _L ON time of 24 TPG21, O
After setting the FF time 25 by operating KB6, select the ones that have a great relation to each of AHC8 ₁ to 8 _L from ACC9 _{1 to} 9 _M and LTC10 ₁ to 10 _N , and assign these numbers to Fig. 4. As shown in “1” and “m1” to “m3”, “n1” to “n3” are defined as a combination, and the shift times 32 and 33 are specified, and the related table RT ₁ to by setting the RT _L, time table AC ₁ of other TPG22,23 ~AC _M,
LT ₁ ~LT _N is automatically set.

However, the actual control for each day is TPG21-23.
ON time corresponding to the day of each timetable in 24 and
Since it follows the OFF time 25, the CPU1 uses the above-mentioned calendar clock function from the timetables of TPG21 to 23 for each time 24,25 for the current day (today) and the next day (tomorrow).
Read out, store this in RAM3 as an execution table for each control target part of each management item, and based on this, AHC8
And performing command for _{1 ~8 L, ACC9 1 ~9 M} , LTC10 1 ~10 N.

FIG. 5 shows the execution table corresponding to FIG.
ON time 24 and O read from the time table of 1 to 23
The FF time 25 is set as the execution table 41 to 43 for each control target part of each management item “AH”, “AC”, “LT”, and “Today”
And it is stored over "tomorrow", and at the time of day change, each time 24,25 for "tomorrow" is stored at each time 24,25 for "today" and each time 24,25 for "tomorrow" is TPG21. By newly reading from the timetable of ~ 23 and storing, and repeating this operation, each time 24,2 that always coincides with the actual calendar day
5 is stored.

Therefore, depending on the work situation of the control target part, if there is a temporary occurrence of personnel, overtime, etc., the next day, this will change each time 24, 25 of "Tomorrow" of the execution tables 41 to 43, and the overtime of the day will be changed. In case of occurrence, it is sufficient to change the OFF time 25 of "today".

However, changing the execution tables 41 to 43 to individual ones is the execution table of the desired control target part of the standard management item "AH".
Other management items "AC" and "LT" for each time 24, 25 of 41
Each time 2 in the execution tables 42, 43 of the related control target parts of
4,25 must be changed while maintaining the difference between the shift times 32,33 defined by the relation table in FIG. 4, and it is troublesome to do this artificially.

Therefore, if only the execution table 41 of the desired control target part of the standard control item “AH” is changed, the CPU 1 controls in accordance with this and the related control of other control items “AC” and “LT” is performed. Each execution table of the target part is automatically updated with a certain correlation.

FIG. 1 is a flow chart showing the control status of the CPU 1, and the display by the CRT 5 is performed as shown in FIG. 6 in accordance with the execution of the control operation to facilitate the change operation and the status confirmation thereof.

That is, "Is TPG selection input available?" By operating KB6. 101
Is Y (YES), this determines the “standard TPG?” 102 corresponding to the standard management item, and is designated by the “specified standard TPG / execution table / collective display” 103 according to Y of this. The time table AH and the execution table 41 of the controlled part are read from the RAM 3, and this data is sent to the CRT 5 and displayed at the same time. For example, AHC8l timetable A
Hl and execution table 41 are read from RAM3, and this data is sent to CRT5 and displayed simultaneously.

Then, by operating KB6, "Today" in the execution table 41
Or, if "Today / Tomorrow / has designated input?" 111 that specifies "tomorrow" is Y, it is related to AHC8l by "obtain related execution table from related table" 112 in FIG.
ACC9 _m1 ~ _m3 , LTC10 _n1 ~ _n3 each execution table _42,43 is obtained, this is read from _RAM3 , data conversion for bar graph display is performed based on each time 24,25 of each execution table 41-43, "ON /
"OFF time setting is displayed collectively for each management item" 113
The display of FIG. 6 (A) is performed on the display surface 51 of the CRT 5.

In this example, the ON time of AHC8l of the standard control item "AH" is set to 8:30 and the OFF time is set to 17:30, and the _ACC9 m1 to _{m3 of} other control items "AC" and "LT" are set _. , LTC10 n1 to _n3 ON shift time is set to -30 minutes, OFF shift time is set to +120 minutes, accordingly ACC9 _m1 to _m3 , LTC10 _{n1 to n3} ON
The time is set to 8:00 and the OFF time is set to 19:30, and the time zone between these times is displayed by the color bar of each individual color.

Next, when “ON / OFF / designated input?” 121 that specifies the ON time or OFF time by operating KB6 becomes Y, corresponding to this, “ON / OFF of displayed standard control item”
"Cursor move to position" 122 is performed, and the cursor 52 is displayed at the OFF time position of the AHC 8l, for example, as shown in FIG. 6 (B).

Therefore, the operator can easily confirm the changed portion with the cursor 52, and after confirming this, move the changed portion to the upper left or the right according to early return or overtime.
Or, if the "→" key is operated, "Early / remaining / designated input?" 131 becomes Y, and the relationship between the operation time of the "←" or "→" key and the expansion / contraction time for extending or shortening the changed part is determined. For this reason, after performing 132 "Determining the expansion / contraction time from the continuous input time from the expansion / contraction time table" stored in ROM2, "Addition / expansion of expansion / contraction time to ON / OFF time of displayed standard control item" The display of FIG. 6 (C) is displayed by 133, 1 hour is added in this example, the temporary display 53 is displayed in white, etc., and “ENT / input?” 141 by the ENT key operation of KB6 is displayed. Step 131 during N (NO)
Repeat the above.

When step 131 is N, "ENT / input?" 142 is determined as in step 141, and step 131 and subsequent steps are repeated according to N.

Then, the temporary display 53 in FIG. 6C is changed, and when the ENT key of KB6 is operated, step 141
Or 142 becomes Y, and in response, “Temporary display ON / OF
Update the standard execution table according to F time ”151, AHC8
In the execution table 41 of l, in this example, the OFF time 25 is updated to 18:30, and based on this time, "add the shift time of the related table to the time of the reference execution table-ON / OFF of the related execution table" Time update ”152 is carried out, whereby the execution table 42,43 of the related ACC9 _m1 to _m3 , LTC10 _n1 to _n3 is executed.
After updating the OFF time 25 in the execution table 41 while maintaining the shift time difference from the OFF time 25, “display update of ON / OFF time setting for each management item on the corresponding day” 153 as in step 113. Do.

As a result, the display of FIG. 6 (D) is displayed, and AHC8l, ACC9
The update status of the execution tables 41, 42, 43 of _m1 to _m3 , LTC10 _n1 to _n3 is clearly shown.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, in the execution table 41 of the desired control target part of the standard control item “AH”, the “today” or “tomorrow” ON time 24 or OFF time 25, or both By only changing the time as needed, the time in the execution tables 42, 43 of the control target parts related to other control items "AC" and "LT" is automatically based on this as a certain correlation. Since the information is updated, it is extremely easy to temporarily change the management time for early departure, late departure, early return of employees, overtime work, and the like.

Further, since this situation is sequentially displayed on the CRT 5 according to the change operation, it is easy to confirm and there is no risk of erroneous setting.

However, in FIG. 2, it is optional to use a large-sized computer, a personal computer or the like instead of the MCT4, and as the management items, other necessary items may be combined and the reference items are not conditioned only, may be have been the conditions connexion Sadamere, related tables RT ₁ to RT _L of FIG. 4 may be provided as a number corresponding to the control target region number of the reference matter.

The transmission lines 7 _{1 to} 7 ₃ may be shared instead of being separated from each other.The timetables and execution tables of TPG21 to 23 are stored in the RAM3 of MCT4, AHC8 ₁ to 8 _L , and ACC9 _{1 to} 9
_It may be stored in an equivalent memory of _M , LTC10 ₁ to 10 _N and changed by a command from MCT4, and the change of the timetable can be handled in the same manner as the execution table.

Further, each table in FIGS. 3 to 5 can be selected in any format as long as it has the same contents, and in FIG. 1, each step may be replaced with another equivalent step. The display situation in FIG. 6 can be modified in various ways, such as by setting it according to the conditions.

〔The invention's effect〕
