Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a person who constructs a system to easily read past data and to quickly restore a failure even when the failure takes place by outputting information about management objects and the stored terms of operation contents to an outputting means with a set language based on data stored in a term storing means. SOLUTION: A language information storage device 11 stores a language that is a standard language and the kinds of output languages with which display/print are performed. The language that is the standard language and the language with which display/print are performed are set according to the contents of the restored data. An output controller 9 converts information outputted by an operation management controller 7 into the output languages based on data stored in an output attribute storage device 1, a term storage device 12 and the device 11 and outputs them to a display device 4 and a printer 5. A history data storage device 13 stores past operations performed by a commander through an input device 3 and past control contents controlled by the controller 7 and the data are sequentially updated.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a management system, and more particularly, to a multilingual train operation management system suitable for constructing a system for exporting overseas.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional management system, a CRT,
Terms and sentences output to an output device such as a printer are stored in a storage device in one language (in the case of a system used in Japan, only in Japanese), and information to be managed is stored in the storage device. It is output to the output device according to the terms and sentences of that language.

Further, as a method of changing a message output from a computer system into a native language of each country, there is a conventional technique described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 3-260855.

In this prior art, a native language message is stored in a message file in response to a message change instruction at the start of introduction of a computer system, and the native language message is set in a message table at the start of operation of the computer system. It is possible to change the message language according to the native language.

[0005]

When the above conventional management system is reconstructed into a system for a region different from the language of the stored terms and sentences, all the stored terms and sentences are translated into the language of the region. Had to be rewritten. Further, it is necessary to check whether the rewritten term or sentence corresponds to the previously stored term or sentence, and it takes a lot of time to construct the system.

In the prior art described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 3-260855, when a native language message is set in a message table, a native language message is output to a message output device. Is set (after the start of operation), it is not possible to output terms or sentences in a language other than the set native language, for example, Japanese as a standard language.

[0007] For this reason, the management system is disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No.
Even if the prior art described in Japanese Patent No. 60855 is applied, information on the management target of the management system and past data stored in the management system cannot be output in a language other than the native language. Therefore, for example, when a failure occurs,
When outputting (displaying and printing) the contents of past operations or controls stored in the storage device, a standard language (for example, Japanese)
In this case, the past operation contents and control contents are not output, and it becomes difficult for a system builder whose native language is the standard language to read the past operation contents and control contents, and it becomes difficult to cope with a failure or the like.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a management system capable of shortening the time required to build a system for other countries, and enabling a system builder to easily read past data and quickly recover from a failure even when a failure occurs. Is to do.

[0009]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a collecting means for collecting information about a management target, an output means for outputting information about the management target, and an output means for outputting the information about the management target. In a management system including an input unit for operating a commander based on the information of the operation unit and an operation content storage unit for storing the content of the operation performed via the input unit, the output terms are associated with each of a plurality of languages. Term storing means for storing, setting means for setting the language of the term to be output, and when outputting information on the management target and the stored operation content to the output means,
Means for outputting, based on the data stored in the term storage means, information on the management target and terms of the stored operation content to the output means in the set language. The present invention also provides a collection unit that collects information about the management target, a control unit that controls the management target based on the collected information about the management target, and an output unit that outputs information about the management target.
In a management system including a control content storage means for storing the control content of the control means, a term storage means for storing output terms in association with a plurality of languages and a language of the output terms are set. Setting means for outputting information on the management target and information on the stored control means based on the data in the term storage means, when outputting the information on the management target and the control content of the stored control means to the output means; Means for causing the output means to output the term of the control content in the set language.

Accordingly, if the language of the system delivery destination is set by the setting means, the information on the management target is output in the language of the delivery destination. Therefore, when the system is delivered, it is only necessary to set the language of the delivery destination by this setting means, and it is easy to reconstruct the system for other countries.

In the term storage means, the terms to be output are stored in association with each of a plurality of languages. Therefore, no matter what language the stored data is, the set language is set when outputting. Can be converted and output. Therefore, if the setting means sets the language which is the native language of the system builder, the stored operation contents or control contents can output the system in the language which is the native language of the builder. The contents or control contents can be easily read.
