Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001]

The present invention relates to a financial automation apparatus and a control method thereof for controlling a multi-monitor.

Generally, automated teller machines (ATMs) provide many tasks performed by financial institutions such as banks, village safes, and the like. For example, a user can perform financial transactions such as account transfer, balance inquiry, deposit withdrawal and account book clearance within a short period of time without going through a bank member, and can use financial transactions at any time have.

Accordingly, the automated teller machines (ATMs) can quickly and conveniently provide unattended services for financial services, regardless of time, without consulting services.

For this purpose, the financial automation device generally has a data input / output function, a man-machine interface function, a data processing function with a communication control function, and the like.

Further, the automated teller machine can be implemented as a multi-monitor including a plurality of monitors such as a customer monitor, a driver monitor, and the like.

For example, a customer monitor is located on the front of a financial automation machine, and a customer monitor functions to display information necessary for a customer to correctly perform a financial transaction. In addition, a driver's monitor is located on the rear side of the automated teller machine, and performs a function of displaying an operating state and a failure state of the automatic teller machine so that the manager can easily grasp the state of the automatic teller machine.

The multi-monitor including the plurality of monitors is controlled by the control unit of the financial automation equipment. For this purpose, the multi-monitor must be fixed separately in the control unit according to the number of monitors or environment of each financial automation equipment.

That is, the monitor located on the front side should be set to be used as the monitor for the customer, and similarly, the monitor located on the rear side should be set to the control unit to be used as the monitor for the staff.

However, if the monitor signal changes during booting of the financial automation equipment, the customer's / employee's monitor will change, and as a result, the customer's screen and the employee's screen change, so that the customer can see the employee's screen There is a problem that can lead to the risk of financial accidents.

For example, in a hardware initial setting or maintenance setting of a financial automation device, when the input cables of each monitor are reversed, the financial automation device management application finds that the monitor actually located on the front is located at the rear, , It is determined that the monitor actually located on the rear side is located on the front side so that the financial automation equipment management application transmits the information to be outputted to the monitor for the driver to the monitor for the customer on the front side, There is a problem of seeing information.

In addition, when the position of the monitor is set incorrectly at the time of setting the environment of the control unit, there is a risk that the customer screen and the staff member screen change in the same manner, and the customer can see the staff member screen.

An object of the present invention is to provide a method for preventing a malfunction in a multi-monitor of a financial automatic machine.

The present invention is a multi-monitor system including a multi-monitor having a plurality of monitors having a hardware unique identification ID, a data storage unit for storing monitor attribute information of the monitor for each monitor, The monitor attribute information of the data storage unit is changed to the monitor attribute information of the actually mounted monitor and the monitor attribute information of the data storage unit is used to control the multi-monitor using the monitor attribute information of the changed data storage unit .

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute the steps of: acquiring monitor attribute information recognized by a system; comparing monitor attribute information of a previously stored data storage unit with monitor attribute information of the acquired system; If the acquired monitor attribute information is the same, the multi-monitor is controlled using the monitor attribute information of the existing data storage unit. If the monitor attribute information of the data storage unit is different from the monitor attribute information of the system, And controlling the multi-monitor using the monitor attribute information of the changed data storage unit.

Even if the multi-monitor setting of the banking automation equipment is wrong, the present invention can prevent the malfunction of the monitor by controlling the multi-monitor using the system attribute information detected by the system at the time of construction.

Hereinafter, a detailed description of embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the same reference numerals are used to denote the same or similar components in the drawings.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Fig. 1 is a diagram showing a configuration of a financial automatic machine for driving a multi-monitor according to an embodiment of the present invention;

The multi-monitor 120 includes a plurality of monitors, and displays information received from the control unit on each monitor.

For example, the primary monitor 120a may be operated as a customer monitor of the financial automation device. In this case, the first monitor 120a may be provided with a function for inputting an account number, account balance status, The customer financial information required is displayed according to the status of the ongoing financial transaction.

Similarly, the secondary monitor 120b may be driven by a monitor for a banking automation device. In this case, the second monitor 120b may be provided with cash and check status, unreceived and reject status (Line speed, online connection), collection information (card, passbook, and specification information by unauthorized user), various device button descriptions, device status descriptions , A function button, and the like are displayed.

Each of the monitors 120a, 120b, 120n constituting the multi-monitor 120 has a unique hardware identification ID. When a monitor is set in a financial automation device, a unique hardware identification ID is grasped on a system (for example, an OS) and transmitted to the control unit 100.

Conventionally, the coordinates of each monitor are fixed at the time of driving the monitor, and in such a case, there is a problem that an error occurs when the monitor setting is wrong. For example, the first monitor to be plugged into the first port is fixed to the coordinates (0,0) to (1024,768), and the second monitor to be plugged into the second port is fixed to the coordinates (1024,0) (0,0) to (1024,768) are displayed on the first port and the coordinates (1024,0) to (1824,600) are displayed on the second port, The data transmission is performed so that the driver's picture of the driver is displayed.

However, under such a fixed setting structure, in a state in which the setting of the monitor is erroneously inserted for each port, a problem that information for other purposes is displayed on each monitor may occur.

In order to overcome such a problem, the present invention adopts a method of driving each monitor by comparing the monitor attribute information in the data storage unit with the monitor attribute information grasped on the system by placing the data storage unit 110. [

In the data storage unit 110, monitor attribute information to be used for monitor driving is stored for each monitor. Such a data storage unit may be implemented in various ways such as a DB, a local file, and a register.

The monitor attribute information stored in the data storage unit is data input by an administrator at the time of monitor setting. Monitor attribute information stored in the data storage unit is called by the control unit and used for driving each monitor.

The hardware identification ID is a unique ID of each monitor, and a hardware unique ID is used as a hardware identification ID.

The monitor order is the information that determines which monitor the monitor will be used for. It is the information that sets the monitor to be used in the financial automation equipment such as primary, secondary, and so on.

The resolution is information on the resolution of the monitor, and the coordinates are information on which coordinate position the monitor is located.

The control unit 100 controls to drive each monitor in the multi-monitor. For this control, the monitor unit 100 reads the monitor attribute information from the data storage unit, and drives the monitor according to the monitor attribute information.

The monitor attribute information stored in the set data storage unit and the monitor attribute information actually found in the system may be different from each other when the monitor is connected incorrectly or the setting is made incorrectly during the maintenance of the monitor.

For example, the first monitor 120a having the hardware identification ID of Ox01 sets the resolution of 1024 x 768, the coordinates (0,0) to (1024,768) in the data storage as the initially set monitor attribute information The monitor attribute information of the first monitor actually recognized on the system is different from the monitor attribute information of the data storage unit 110 in a resolution different from the monitor attribute information of the data storage unit 110 And coordinates.

In this state, when the monitor is driven using the existing monitor attribute information in the data storage unit 110, a monitor malfunction may occur.

In order to overcome such a problem, the control unit 100 compares the monitor attribute information in the data storage unit 110 with the monitor attribute information actually found in the system before driving the monitor, And changes the monitor attribute information of the monitor attribute information acquired by the system to monitor attribute information and drives the monitor with the changed information.

These comparisons are made using the unique hardware identification ID of the monitor as a key value, and the comparison is made for each monitor as an identifier.

For example, FIG. 2 shows an example in which the monitor attribute information stored in the data storage unit 110 is different from the monitor attribute information actually captured on the system.

As shown in FIG. 2 (a), in the case of the second monitor having the hardware identification ID of Ox02, the resolutions and coordinates determined by the system due to the setting change of the second monitor during the maintenance operation And may be different from the resolution and coordinates of the negative.

When the monitor attribute information of the data storage unit is different from the monitor attribute information of the system, the control unit changes and stores the monitor attribute information of the second monitor in the data storage unit so as to match the monitor attribute information of the system , Make sure that the monitor works correctly as intended.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating an operation procedure of a financial automation apparatus for driving a multi-monitor according to an embodiment of the present invention.

When the automated teller machine is booted, the control unit obtains the monitor attribute information that is grasped on the system of monitors installed in the automated teller machine (S301).

The monitor attribute information recognized by the system includes the hardware identification ID, the monitor order, the resolution, and the coordinates, which are the unique IDs of the monitors, as actual attribute information of the monitors, which are installed in the financial automation equipment and are managed under the management of the OS.

The control unit determines whether the monitor attribute information of the acquired system matches the monitor attribute information of the data storage unit (S302). If the monitor attribute information matches the monitor attribute information of the data storage unit, the control unit drives the monitor using the monitor attribute information of the data storage unit as is (S304).

On the other hand, if the monitor attribute information of the acquired system does not match the monitor attribute information of the data storage unit due to the setting of the monitor or the environment setting, the monitor attribute information of the data storage unit is changed to the monitor attribute information of the system and is stored (S303 ). These comparisons are made by comparing the unique hardware identification ID of each monitor as the key value and using the identifier as the identifier.

Thereafter, the monitor is driven by using the monitor attribute information of the changed stored data storage unit (S304) so that the correct monitor display is performed.

If the monitor is run with the monitor attribute information of the data storage unit without changing, the contents to be displayed on the primary monitor and the secondary monitor may be reversed, or nothing may be displayed have.

For example, if the monitor setting and the environment are normally set, the monitor attribute information of the system will be grasped as coordinates as shown in FIG. 4 (a), and the monitor attribute information initially stored in the data storage unit will also be displayed as shown in FIG. do.

However, if the actual coordinates of the monitor for the customer and the monitor for the driver are changed due to the monitor setting change, the monitor attribute information in the data storage does not match the actual system.

The monitor attribute information of the data storage unit which is not matched with the monitor attribute information is changed to the monitor attribute information grasped by the system and is driven to cause the correct operation to be performed.

For example, there are coordinates (1024, 0) to (1824, 600) of the monitor for the driver in the existing data storage unit. 800,0) to (0,600), it is impossible to display the information on the screen of the monitor for actual staff members.

Since the staff monitor is actually located at the coordinates (-800,0) to (0,600), there is no staff monitor at the positions of coordinates (1024,0) to (1824,600) in the monitor attribute information of the data storage unit , It is not possible to display any driver information when driving with the monitor identification information of the existing data storage unit.

Therefore, it is necessary to change the coordinates of the monitoring monitor described in the coordinate information of the data storage unit to the coordinate (-800,0) to (0,600) of the monitor property information of the actually acquired system as shown in FIG. 5 (b) The staff display contents can be displayed correctly on the staff monitor.
