JPS61157142A - Display device of system constitution state of communication system - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To miniaturize a display device by storing an arranging state data of plural communication equipments constituting each system to a storage means, reading the said data selectively corresponding to each system and displaying the data visually so as to display visually the device arrangement state corresponding to the actual state. CONSTITUTION:A communication system 1 is a multi-processor system. The system 1 transfers the arrangement data required for the system constitution state display to a controller 31 from the storage device 2 depending on the controller 31 of a system constitution state display device 3 and the said data is stored in a storage device 32. The said data includes a data representing a type of a controller such as a call processing unit, a common line signal controller or a base controller corresponding to the number of plural controllers of the system 1 and an arrangement state data of the communication equipment under its control. The said request is executed for each number of the controller by the operation of a keyboard 34.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a system configuration status display device for a communication system such as a telephone exchange system.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, when displaying the system configuration state of a communication system, the arrangement state of the numerous communication devices constituting each group is visually displayed on a panel or the like having a dedicated fixed display pattern.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, displaying the system configuration status in this way requires a fixed system configuration pattern (such as the arrangement of the communication devices that make up the communication system to be displayed or the maximum number that can be implemented). In some cases, it may not be possible to correspond to the arrangement status of In addition, in a multiprocessor system where there are multiple control devices in a communication system, the system configuration pattern may differ depending on the type of control device, and one fixed display pattern expresses the configuration of each unit. Can not. Furthermore, it is not economical to arrange a large number of dedicated display panels depending on the arrangement of communication devices.

[Means to solve all problems]

A system configuration state display device for a communication system according to the present invention includes a storage means for storing arrangement state data of a plurality of communication devices constituting each unit of the communication system transferred from a database of the communication system; The present invention is characterized in that it is provided with means for selectively reading out arrangement state data for each system, and means for visually displaying the selectively read out foreboard arrangement state data.

〔Example〕

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

Referring to FIG. 1, which shows an embodiment of the present invention, reference numeral 1 indicates a communication system to which system configuration status is displayed;
Here, it is a multiprocessor system in which a plurality of control devices exist. Further, reference numeral 2 denotes a storage device that stores arrangement data of communication devices constituting the communication system 1. Furthermore, 3 is a system configuration status display device connected to the communication system 1, and a system configuration status display control device 31. Storage device 32.
Visual display device 33. and a keyboard 34.

After the power is turned on, the system configuration status display control device 31 of the system configuration status display device 3 requests the communication system 1 to transfer the arrangement data. The communication system 1 transfers the arrangement data necessary for displaying the system configuration state from the database of the storage device t2 to the control device 31. The control device 31 stores the transferred arrangement data in the storage device 32. This arrangement data includes data indicating which type of control device, such as a call processing device, a common line signal control device, or a platform control device, the control device corresponds to the number of the plurality of control devices in the communication system 1; Data indicating the arrangement state of communication devices under the control of each control device is also included. Since the device layout status differs depending on the type of control device, system configuration status display requests are made using the maintenance personnel's keyboard 34.
The operation is performed for each control device number. The system configuration status display control device 31 determines the number of the selected control device and the arrangement status of the devices under its control based on the read data from the storage device 32, and displays the predetermined system configuration on the visual display device 33. indicate.

Examples of the arrangement of communication devices of each group of the communication system 1 and the configuration of the handle system selectively displayed on the visual display device 33 in this manner are shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. FIG. 2 shows a case where the system configuration of the control device CPU1 is selected and displayed among the plurality of control devices CPUo to CPUn, and FIG.
The cases in which two system configurations are selected and displayed are shown.

In both figures, SPC is a communication path control device, TSW is a time division switch, SHW is a subhighway, LOC is a local control device, and DTIC is an interface control device.

8YTC indicates a trunk control device, RMTC a remote control device, and C8C a common line signal control device.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, it is possible to visually display the arrangement state of equipment constituting each unit of a communication system in accordance with the actual situation, and to selectively display a number of arrangement states, the system configuration state display device is used. It can also be made smaller.
