Diagrams in Fig. 2 to 8 are depicted as preferable synthesis examples, but not excluding other implementation.
As warning devices (not shown in drawings) could be employed, for example, a reader (from a card, key, etc.), a guard surface (window) warning device, guard magnet-contact warning devices, acoustic warning devices, movement sensors, level sensors, pressure sensors, liquid consumption sen- sors, sensors of other physical parameters, sealed-contact reed relays, thermal (fire-alarm) warning devices, smoke (fire-alarm) warning devices, combined fire-alarm and other warning devices/ all warning devices are connected to the address bus and input/output of the microprocessor 1 through the address mi- crocircuit modules 18. The controller could be used, for example, in security and fire alarm or fire-fighting systems, access monitoring and control systems (turnstiles, gates, latches, turnpikes, doors), engineer equipment monitoring and control systems (air conditioning and ventilation, water supply, electric-power supply with re¬ gard to the water and/or electric power consumption), light control systems, and also in many other systems including the combined ones. The controller operates as follows.
Upon applying power from the AC power network, the first DC voltage converter 11 produces the direct current with the voltage of 13.6 V, which DC is applied, through a diode, for charging the external stand-by battery (having capacity up to 7 A/hour), and, through another diode, for supplying controller circuits including the microprocessor 1. In the case of sharp growth of current consumption by the battery, the self-restorable cut-out and relay operate, the relay contacts open, and battery charging cease. After 30 seconds the micro¬ processor 1 gives a command to close the relay. Thus, the circuit 10 for con¬ trolling an external battery charging ensures device performance while charg¬ ing a battery and excludes a possibility of failures in controller operation. In the absence of power from the power network, the stand-by supply of the de- vice is carried out from the battery. The circuit 15 for indicating an operation on main power-line or on battery indicates on what manner is carried out the controller supply, by lighting one of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) of different colours, of which the green LED shines when operating on main power-line, and the red LED shines when operating on battery. The first, second, and third DC voltage converters 1 1 , 12, 13 produces their output voltages in accordance with adjustment of their voltage stabiliz¬ ers: 13.6 V, 12 V, 5 V, respectively. The voltage stabilizer of the first DC voltage converter 1 1 is made controlled. The ventilator is turned on/off in ac¬ cordance with the operation of the thermal relay disposed on the radiator, ex- trading heat from the rectifier and converters 11 to 13, and thus ensuring a possibility of failure-free operation.
In watching mode of the controller, with the voltage in the system, the microprocessor 1 produces a periodic interrogation of all sensors (warning devices). Sensors inform an object state. Address microcircuit modules moni- tor a state of sensors (warning devices) and transmit this information to the controller in the form of notification through the circuit 5 for matching com¬ munication lines. The transmission of notifications is usually carried out in the digital form. At a moment of action accomplishment, for example, applying a key to a certain reader (warning device), a signal is formed at the output of the cir¬ cuit 5 for matching and protecting communication lines. The circuit 5 for matching and protecting communication lines provides an information ex- change with the microprocessor 1 over input/output channels (logical inputs). In so doing, the resistors do not permit a generation of noise from switching and limit a current in communication lines. Suppressors (Schottky diodes) having internal voltage drop lesser than the diodes, limit static positive and negative deviations of voltages above 12 V. The stabilizer diodes limit static positive deviations of voltages above 5 V. The diodes limit pulse positive de¬ viations of voltages above 12 V, transmitting the excessive energy to the power network. As a result, the microprocessor 1 receives voltage normalized (5 V) signals over communication lines regardless of presence and duration of noise, and the controller as a whole can receive both the weakest useful sig- nals against background of strong interferences simultaneously acting over the whole range or at least one high-powered interference, and very strong signals without any overload and distortions. At the same time, the controller transmits voltage normalized (5 V) signals over communication lines.
Thus, at inputs of the microprocessor 1, acting as logical inputs, there is excluded a receipt of false signals and ensured a passage of normalized valid signals. By this, there is ensured a possibility of interaction with warning de¬ vices (sensors) of various types differing in structure implementation and monitored parameters and distributed over elongated communication lines.
The microprocessor 1 finds in the read only memory (ROM) 2 the number of key and the number of area being monitored, an access to which area is possible using this key. In accordance with the program being at its disposal and the information of the read only memory 2 and time monitoring device 3, the microprocessor 1 determines whether the person with this key the right to access that area at this time, date and month. The time monitoring device 3 allows for the microprocessor 1 to determine the time admissibility of various signals based on the received data being compared with the data stored in the ROM 2 about the fixed working time during a day and about cal- endar rest-days, vacations, etc.
Tn the case, when the data stored in the read only memory 2 and in the program of the microprocessor 1 indicate a rightful access, the microproces¬ sor 1, through the circuit 6 for matching with signaling elements, sends sig¬ nals for operating signal devices. The circuit 6 ensures the permissible signal- ing (warning), i.e., a corresponding acoustic signal and a lighting of permissi¬ ble transparent or blinking of the green LED. In this way, the circuit 6 ensures a matching of power being transmitted over signaling lines with a consumed power of signaling means owing to the conversion of signals (5 V in voltage) of the microprocessor 1 into output signals of transistors (12 V in voltage) and suppression in these lines, if necessary, an interference owing to operation of suppressors that limit static positive and negative deviations of voltages above 12 V.
Moreover, the microprocessor 1, through the circuit 4 for controlling power relays using actuators, performs operations for unlocking a door, and/or releasing a passage through a turnstile, and/or opening a gate, and/or switching on fire-fighting equipment, and/or switching on/off a ventilator or air-conditioner, etc. The circuit 4 for controlling power relays ensures an op¬ eration of relays, and thus a switching of actuators. For this purpose, signals (5 V in voltage) of the microprocessor 1 in controlling lines are converted into signals (12 V in voltage) at control inputs of power relays which could, in their turn, close actuator power circuits having voltage of 220 V, 380 V, and others. In the case, when the data stored in the read only memory 2 and in the program of the microprocessor 1 do not confirm a rightful access, the micro¬ processor 1 , through the circuit 6 for matching with signaling elements, per¬ forms an alarm signaling: a sharp acoustic signal (siren), signal to a guard panel, and lighting of prohibitive transparent or blinking of the red LED.
Moreover, the microprocessor 1, through the circuit 4 for controlling power relays using actuators, performs operations for blocking a door, and/or locking a passage through a turnstile, and/or closing a gate, and/or switching on fire-fighting equipment, and/or opening/closing a shutter, and/or switching on/off a ventilator or air-conditioner.
At the same time, a registration of presence/absence of worker in a cer¬ tain area during working time, and hence, registration of actually worked time could be carried out. Additionally, in the case of presence of worker in certain areas, it is possible to block/unblock supply of water, electric power (for ex- ample, lighting), details for assembling and other materials. In necessary cases it is possible a more complicated information exchange of access codes, for example, by repeated applying the same or another key or by dialing nu¬ merical (alphabetic) codes (parole) on keyboard etc.
Appearance of smoke and increase of temperature leads to forming cor- responding signals of warning devices, coming through the circuit 5 for matching and protecting communication lines to the microprocessor 1. In ac¬ cordance with the program, the microprocessor 1 through the circuit 6 for matching with signaling elements sends an alarm signaling of fire to all points, where the people have to be evacuated from, and to a guard premise as well as to an enterprise direction. At the same time, the microprocessor 1 through the circuit 4 for controlling power relays actuates fire-fighting de¬ vices: mechanisms for supplying water, foam, fire-extinguishing powders, etc., as well as isolates the burning premises from other premises by means of blocking or closing doors and windows, switching off lift and other means. In the same way could be processed the signal of a pressure sensor indicating a pressure drop lower than the permissible level, which indicates on a break of pipeline or reservoir. Breaking an integrity of doors, door locks, window glazing, etc. results also in forming corresponding signals of warning devices, coming through the circuit 5 for matching and protecting communication lines to the microproces¬ sor 1. In accordance with the program, the microprocessor 1 through the cir¬ cuit 6 for matching with signaling elements sends an alarm signaling on tres- passer penetration to the guard premise as well as to enterprise direction. At the same time, the microprocessor 1 , through the circuit 6 for controlling power relays closing actuators circuits, actuates security devices: lowers guard bars, closes a gate, supplies voltage onto barbed-wire entanglement, turns off a lighting and a water supply, locks safes, etc., as well as isolates the premise, in which the trespasser has come, from other premises by means of blocking or closing doors and windows and switching off lift.
The line amplifier 7 in a ramified system performs communication with operator's computer and also with other controllers serving separate groups of warning devices and actuators. The resistors connected to the negative inputs of comparators carry out the functions of voltage dividers and ensure a form¬ ing of stepped, voltage normalized signals at the outputs of comparators re¬ gardless of form of input signal at the positive inputs. Thus, in the case of cor¬ responding programming the microprocessors 1 of a group of controllers, it is possible to operate actuators or signaling means associated with one controller upon operating a warning device (sensor) associated with another controller.
The module 14 for broadening controller function, when it is present, can receive notifications over additional communication lines, form (amplify, normalize) a signal for actuating a relay in circuits of additional actuators. For this purpose, the module 14 for broadening controller functions could partly combine functions of one or more circuits: circuit 5 for matching and protect¬ ing communication lines, circuit 4 for controlling power relays, circuit 6 for matching with signaling elements. In the case of using the module 14 for broadening controller functions, the processing of signals coming over addi¬ tional communication lines is carried out similar to the aforementioned.
Thus, a general-purpose effective controller having a broadened func¬ tionality is provided, which controller ensures receiving and processing sig¬ nals of warning devices (sensors) of several kinds, as well as a store of ad- dress microcircuit modules is broadened.
In so doing: the functionality is broadened for: interacting with warning devices (sensors) of various types differing in structure implementation and monitored parameters, and also for controlling various kinds of actuators and signaling elements; the reliability of electric-power supply is increased; and also is increased the reliability and operation accuracy in static and pulse in¬ terference condition.
