DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a table in which display means for displaying error information, information for specifying an error, and error display information for display by the display means are paired. And, when an error occurs, referring to the table, converts the information specifying the error into corresponding error display information, and has an error conversion unit that outputs the information to the display unit. There is an effect that display information of an error (for example, an error message, a color of a lighting lamp of a signal tower, a blinking condition, a host command) with respect to the error information can be arbitrarily set for each user.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the error information display device according to the first aspect, a table in which information for specifying an error and error display information displayed by a display unit are arbitrarily changed. An input means capable of inputting, changing, and adding error display information to the error information can be arbitrarily input by the user.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. The same components as those of the prior art shown in FIG. 4 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted. (Embodiment 1) FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of an error information display device according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 11 denotes an error code processing controller composed of a computer. The error code processing controller 11 outputs an error code (information for specifying an error) output from the device controller 4, an image display device 1, and a signal. An error code conversion table 12 in which the tower 2 and error information (error display information) displayed by the host computer 3 are paired;
And an error code conversion means 13 for converting the error code into error display information corresponding to the error code.
The display contents of each error information are determined with reference to FIG.

The operation of the error information display device configured as described above will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. First, when an error occurs in the electronic component mounting apparatus (step-1), the apparatus controller 4
Generates an error code (for example, "0001") corresponding to the error that has occurred, and outputs the error code to the error code processing controller 11 (step-2).

The error code conversion means 13 of the error code processing controller 11 which has input the error code refers to the error code conversion table 12 based on the error code (step-3) and displays an error corresponding to the error code "0001". Information (for example, an error message “equipment operation error” of the image display device 1, “lit red” of the signal tower 2, and a host command “R01” of the host computer 3) are acquired (step-4). Image display device 1, signal tower 2, and host computer 3
