When they are completed, the new program is transferred to the last storage area of the disc FD and is stored there as a specific program after linked to another program in accordance with the indication from the keyboard KB, and thereafter, it is stored in a variable memory RAM. The control output for air conditioning is transmitted by the specific program, whose debugging is completed, and the control program stored in a fixed memory ROM.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention simulates a specific program based on a new algorithm required depending on the situation, performs debugging of the specific program, and performs predetermined control. The present invention relates to an air conditioning control device that controls air conditioning using a program and a specific program.

[Prior art]

In recent years, there has been a tendency for small computers to be used in air conditioning control equipment, and air conditioning control is performed by executing a control program specified for air conditioning, but debugging of the control program is performed using a separate computer. The results are based on simulations.

Therefore, when an operator of an air conditioning control device devises a new control algorithm according to operating conditions, creates a specific program based on this, and intends to use it together with a predetermined control program, In addition to the control device, a computer for simulation is prepared separately, and a specific program is debugged through simulation using a separate computer, and then the specific program that has been debugged is given as a command to the air conditioning control device. However, it is difficult to create a specific program, and a separate computer is required, resulting in high costs.

[Summary of the invention]

The purpose of the present invention is to fundamentally eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional technology, to enable the simulation of a specific program in the air conditioning control device itself, and to control the air conditioning using the specific program that is simulated and a predetermined control program. It is equipped with an external memory that stores an editor, a compiler, and a simulation program, and uses the editor and compiler to create a specific program based on a new algorithm given from an input device, and then uses the simulation program to simulate the specific program. Provided is an extremely effective air conditioning control device that transmits control outputs for air conditioning based on a specific program that has been debugged by simulation and a control program stored in a fixed memory. It is something to do.

Based on 8-OPSF, 'store in RAM' to 1 air conditioning control are fixed memos! It is executed based on JROM's O8' OPSM, so a new algorithm is input from the keyboard KB, and a new algorithm is created? If ' is Y (YES), the siprogram is modified by one editor using the editor on the floppy disk FD, and the high-level language is converted into machine language etc. by the compiler on the floppy disk FD. Performed by 1 end? When 1 becomes Y, 1 links with other programs in response to instructions from the keyboard Kn. ”, and if it is Y, link with other programs using the linker of the floppy disk FD.
After doing this, transfer these to floppy disk FD 1.
It is transferred to the final storage area and stored as a specific program.
