In the figure, the plant computer 5 is an input signal scanning and arithmetic processing unit that receives and processes signals from the plant 6, and shows the results thereof.

Judgment of the safety of the audio announcement Based on the judgment result 12, a judgment is made as to whether or not the request for audio output is to be made. If it is necessary to make a voice announcement, the voice message number selection section 13 selects the necessary voice message number, and the voice announcement processor transmission section 14 transmits the information to the voice announcement processor 1. In the voice announcement processor 1, the voice message number registration unit 15 stores the voice message numbers in the memory in the order in which they were transmitted, and at the same time stores the message numbers in order from the oldest registered message number. The number is deciphered, and the message synthesis and output unit 16 accesses the voice announcement device 3 via the voice announcement connection unit 2, synthesizes a hole and a message corresponding to the message number, and outputs the message to the speaker unit 4. Output from How to decipher and output the mensage number.

The registered message output completion determination unit 1T continues the process at step 1 where n ends for all registered messages.

A conventional voice announcement device is constructed as shown in FIG. 1 and operates as shown in FIG. Therefore, the speaker unit installed in the driver's cab outputs the necessary messages only once in a predetermined order, but the contents of the messages may be complicated. If you are busy, or if you are busy, there is a possibility that you may have missed or mistakenly listened to the contents of the output message. Plant abnormality or accident? There was a risk that it could cause this to occur.

[Summary of the invention]

This invention was devised to eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional method as described above, and by repeatedly outputting a message a number of times set in advance by an operator, An audio output method that makes it easy to reconfirm message contents and thus ensures support for plant supervisory operations by operators? is intended to provide.

[Embodiments of the invention]

Hereinafter, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. Third
In the figure, 1 to 6 are the same as in FIG. 7 is a repetition number setting board, which is connected to the plant computer 5. Also, in Fig. 4, 1 is the same as Fig. 3, 8 is a repeat count setting device, and 9 is an on/off switch for cutting off the signal of the repeat setting device intermittent switch 8. These are on the operation panel. Install it in one place.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the operation according to the configurations of FIGS. 3 and 41.
Same as a prisoner. 13a is a set value reading unit for the number of repetitions;
13b is a part for adding the number of repetitions to the voice message number;
14a is a voice message number and repetition count registration unit;
Reference numeral 8 denotes a determining unit for determining whether greening has been completed the required number of times.

The operation according to the present invention will be briefly explained with reference to FIGS. 3 to 5. to plant computer 5.

Analog and digital signals such as pressure, temperature values, and plant abnormal state signals are input from the plant 6 and 1 to the input signal generator and arithmetic processing section 11.

Perform the necessary processing. In this case, if the voice notification safety judgment unit 12 determines that the output of the voice message is not necessary based on the processing result, the plant computer 5 stores the predetermined message in the memory. The voice message number selection unit 13 searches the memory for the voice message number (for example, 10) in the number n, and selects one. Next, the plant computer 1 checks the value of the edge turning number setting device 8 on the number of repetition setting board 7. Here, if the repetition setting device intermittent switch 9 is turned off, the input of the repetition number setting device 8 is electrically cut off.

Therefore, the number signals (in this case, 1, 2, and 3 times) are all O.
Therefore, the repetition number addition section 13b adds the number of repetitions of 0 to the message number 10 mentioned above. That is, no repetition is necessary. Similarly, if the repetition number setting device 8 and the repetition setting device intermittent switch 8 of the repetition number setting board 7 are set to fLl and on, the plant computer 5 uses the repetition number setting value reading section 13a to set the number of repetitions. When entering a signal, at this time only the input of 1 is set to 1 (the same applies to 2 and 3), so the number of repetitions is added to the voice message number.
At step 13b, the number of repetitions 1 is added to the message number 10, and this information is transmitted to the voice announcement processor 14.
If so, it is sent to the audio announcement processor 1. In response to this information, the voice announcement processor 1 sends the voice message number and repetition number registration section 14a to the message number 10.
and the number of repetitions 1 is registered at the top of the file (if message 10 is the first message) 0 Here, the voice announcement processor 1 uses the message synthesis and output unit 16 to register the message number as 10. It decodes a certain thing, and combines it with the synthesized voice memory of the voice announcement device 3 stored in correspondence with the preview message number 10 via the voice announcement connection unit 2, and then
Sequentially, the speaker units 4 and 1 output a sound into the driver's cabin as an operation message such as "Group A water supply R amount is low. Please operate the main water supply controller manually." After outputting this message, the necessary number of repetitions judgment unit 1
When the number of repetitions is checked using 8, it is 1, so the message is synthesized using the message number and the output unit 16 again outputs a message such as "Repeatedly. Noloop A water supply flow rate is low. Please operate the main water supply controller manually. ” is output. Since the repetition has now been completed, a request for a new message output is sent to the plant computer 5, and the new message number and repetition count are sent to the plant computer 5.
If the voice message number and number of repetitions are registered by the voice message number and repetition number registration unit i4a, if another message number is not registered, repeat the same operation as above as many times as necessary to complete the output of the registered message. The judgment unit 11 outputs audio for all messages the specified number of times.

A series of actions ends.

In the above embodiment, the repetition number setting board 7 is used to set the repetition number, but a digital switch may be used as the repetition number setting device 8.

Furthermore, the settings may be made using a combination of a keyboard and a CRT. Further, an output cancel position may be provided in the edge-turning number setting device 8, and when the position is set, the audio output may be stopped.

Please note that before the output of the output message is completed,
If a different output message is registered, the repeated output may be stopped and the other message outputted.

In addition, in the above embodiment, the setting of the number of repetitions was common to all output messages, but the number of repetitions is set and stored in advance for each output message number of one person by adjusting the keyboard and CRT etc. Even if this is done, the same effect as in the above embodiment can be obtained.

Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the plant computer 5 and the voice announcement processor 1 are considered as separate processors, but
Even if this is done using only one computer, the same effects as in the above embodiment can be obtained.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, according to the present invention, when an operator's plant monitoring operation is supported by a voice output message, the voice message can be requested and returned a predetermined number of times. Prevents errors and allows reliable monitoring operations2. Therefore, the occurrence of abnormal operating conditions due to misrecognition of plant status or incorrect operation of the plant,
This has the effect of preventing the transition to accidents and increasing the operating rate of the plant.
