Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for representing or display of safety related information safely, especially by detecting safety-critical errors within the computation of information in order to generate image data involving the method steps: entry of at least one recorded value of an input parameter into a processor, computerized processing of the input parameter transforming it into a sequence of image data that represent the input parameter, transmitting of the sequence of image data to a display and representing or display of the sequence of image data on that display.
- TFT displays are used increasingly as display units in many applications, in control and monitoring systems for example.
- TFT displays are more commonly used to display safety-critical information in the field of train-control or airplanes, for instance.
- units of this kind are based on a micro controller or PC equipped with software running on an operating system.
- a failure is considered to be a safety-critical failure if the display only seems to work well or seems to show the correct (consistent) information but actually does not represent the true (factual) information provided to the display unit, for example not the train's actual speed.
- the display only shows a seemingly correct value, the failure, however, cannot be detected as such by the observer.
- Existing methods and devices for application of the methods comprise a processor that generates a sequence of image data corresponding to the input parameter, image or vector-oriented for example, in order to show the sequence of image data on the display.
- the display can be of any design, a monitor or TFT for example, with the latter frequently being used today. As the present invention is independent from the display used, insofar any applicable technology can be considered.
- the processing unit is connected to the display (panel) via common digital interfaces, like LVDS.
- the detection method and device do not include the display, but considers it a perfect and therefore flawless system in this context. This is based on the assumption that a typically extremely low failure rate of the display, especially the display panel in particular relating to those errors which might contribute to safety related errors as defined above. Nevertheless, it is of decisive importance that the value of the input ' parameter recorded and processed by the system is correctly shown on the display. Common methods and apparatuses for application of the methods are based on the assumption that a display failure results in an obviously false image and thus is apparent to the observer.
- the displayed data may be non-constant or interrupted for example, may change, for instance, their colour, a figure may be cancelled or shown in a distorted shape. Further, it is to be noted that a failure or an error in the display itself will also lead to a visibly wrong representation of the data.
- the object of the present invention is to provide an improved method for dependable representation of safety-relevant information on a display and apparatus for application of the method thus avoiding, to a large extent, the disadvantages as outlined above and especially allowing a simple replacement or modernization of the system components.
- this task is already achieved by the following steps: transmitting the sequence of image data to a test unit, making a safety test by computerized generation of a test code (Fingerprint) for the sequence of image data, checking the test code against several — discrete — reference codes, assigning the then identified reference code to a corresponding possible value of the input parameter and comparing it against the value of the input parameter.
- a test code Fingerprint
- the test of checking the test codes against the reference codes is carried as an integrated step in the test unit, meaning that the reference codes are integrated in the test unit. In a simplified embodiment however this evaluation can also be performed in another component comprising the required data.
- t ⁇ he invention presents a highly efficient and safe method to ensure the dependable (safe) representation of a safety-related information, especially via pixel based visualization.
- the test unit generates either a positive or a negative test result for the initiation of a safety-focused reaction.
- the test unit can contain several countable and distinct — discrete — reference codes in the form of a chart, for example, being characteristic for each respective application. Further each of the possible values of the input parameter is assigned to each reference code. If, for example, the method is applied to examine or test a display in a speedometer in a railcar, the several reference codes may represent different velocities in steps of 1 km/h for example.
- the safety test After calculation of the test code the safety test provides a check-up in form of a "look-up" comparing the test code with the existing reference codes. If no respective reference code can be determined, the safety-focused reaction may already be initiated at this stage. In fact in complex presentation like in control rooms this may already discriminate forbidden operating states of the monitored system reflected by the visualization on the screen. If, however, a respective reference code is identified, the test unit assigns the corresponding possible value to the input parameter, on the basis of the above mentioned chart for example. This identified valid value of the input parameter will then be checked against the actual input parameter, if necessary admitting a tolerance. In case the safety test leads to a negative result the safety- related reaction may then be initiated.
- the reference codes systematically feature a sufficient separation and Hamming-distance for requested fault suppression, in order to realize a quantifiable differentiation of the several display conditions, as well accordingly a quantifiable differentiation of unknown display conditions.
- safety-focused reactions In principle all methods that clearly indicate a safety- critical failure to the observer are suitable as safety-focused reactions. Possible safety-focused reactions related to application may be, for example: switching off the display completely or to a certain extent, providing data distribution, masking or distortion, switching off the computer unit, thus ensuring its safe condition or communicating the safety- critical failure to a superordinate unit.
- the test unit therefore realizes a test of the computer unit that is completely independent from the computer unit using particularly simple means and being based on the astonishing finding that all safety-relevant system failures are already detected by the safety test through the test unit.
- the method and the apparatus for the application of the method are therefore completely independent of the computer which generates the graphics data including the system components, as there are for example, the processor, the graphic card and the like, i. e. the current computer technology, especially also the operating system.
- the invention therefore involves surprisingly simple means and nevertheless discloses all safety relevant failures of a complex computing device under surveillance. Contrary to the state of the art, when replacing the computer unit components and up-dating the software regularly a safety certification according to the required safety integrity level (SIL) is no longer necessary because of the introduction of the safety test realized by the test unit all or part of the data determined to be displayed. Consequently, the method according to the present invention always allows for the latest technology to be used within the graphics data generating computer unit without jeopardizing the existing safety certification. In a nutshell, the present invention realizes a particularly simple test of the sequence of image data by comparison with the value of the input parameter to be displayed.
- SIL safety integrity level
- the signals of the input parameters which are to be transmitted via common interfaces between the computer unit, the display and the test unit, may be analogue as well as digital.
- the reference codes may be realised by a circuit, as a shift register for example or by programming.
- the safety-focused reaction will be initiated by the test unit itself, by interrupting the power supply of the display for example. Due to the present invention however, it is also possible that in order to initiate the safety-focused reaction, the test unit will, dependent on the test result, only send a control signal to another system component or a superordinate system, a processor that differs from the test unit for instance.
- the safety test will preferably be carried out by performing a periodic test with a frequency up to the frame rate of the display and/or of the rate of change of the input parameter.
- a safety test is sufficient that is limited to relevant subareas or segments of the image representation to be displayed, which characterize the specific displayed data to the observer. These can be the corresponding lines and columns of an image representation or a stump of the pointer of a circular instrument for example.
- the un-monitored area outside of the relevant subarea and the monitored area inside the relevant subarea show different content the observer can recognize this difference and the error will not be considered safety critical.
- the displayed data in the uncontrolled area outside the monitored subarea and the displayed data in the monitored area inside the relevant subarea differ from each other the observer is able to recognise this discrepancy as an error.
- the test unit can be a separate device or integrated within the graphic generating computer unit as well as within a separate monitor unit.
- a software-controlled realization has the particular advantage that even more extensive independence of the processor in regard of platform and software is possible.
- a further development allows the safety-focused reaction to be initiated only after a predefined number of negative test results. It can also be intended that a certain threshold value necessary to 'switch off the display will be reached faster because the negative test results are taken into account with a larger factor, instead of the deduction of negative results because of positive results.
- a possible way to improve the horizontal error tolerance is to consider a safety test result as a positive one even if the value of the input parameter corresponds to several possible and admissible reference values of the input parameter resulting from the safety test. This allows for, if a supervised vehicle accelerates for example, the "neighbouring" reference codes archived in the test unit or adjacent to a predefined environment to also be considered as positive test results. The time and/or value of tolerances relevant for a respective application can therefore be easily taken into account when generating the reference codes and carrying out the safety test.
- the method and apparatus for the application of the method according to the present invention naturally allow several input parameters of the processor to also be processed in a sequential and/or parallel way and checked against different groups of reference codes in the test unit after generation of different test codes.
- any interface and therefore all current means for the transmittance of image data can be applied between the system components. This can be, for instance, a LVDS or a comparable standardized digital data signal for the transmittance of data between the processor and the display.
- the coding methods used during the safety test in order to generate test codes of determined length may, for example, be CRC16, CRC32 or an equally common coding method.
- the safety test of different segments of the image data sequences maybe made in parallel and independently from each other in the test unit to ensure a more rapid processing.
- Sequential image data may be viewed separately according to their different colours for example.
- test unit is designed as a field programmable gate array (FPGA) .
- FPGA field programmable gate array
- this is a programmable integrated circuit used in digital technology thus providing a programmable logic circuit according to the application. It may, however, also be realized in the form of a DSP controller or by means of a hardware solution in full or in part.
- the present invention also relates to a safety unit to display a safety-relevant information, especially to put the the method according to one of the claims mentioned above in to practice, by means of a processor fed with at least one input parameter in order to transform this input parameter into a sequence of image data and a display connected to the processor to display the sequence of image data.
- the task which results thereof will be performed by means of a test unit together with a test code generator, several reference codes according to the application and a reference unit, with the test code generator calculating a test code for at least one read-out part of the sequence of image data.
- the resulting test code is compared with the existing reference codes and in case of a positive conformity the resulting reference code is assigned a corresponding value of the input parameter as a reference value.
- the reference value will then be checked against the input parameter in or outside of the reference unit in order to initiate a safety-focused reaction if the safety test leads to a negative result.
- the actuality of the safety test and thus the tested data can be verified from the outside by including a check value, e.g. a random number, into the input value data transmission.
- This check value can than either be computed into a graphical representation by the graphics generating computer, commonly called a PC, or be directly transferred into the data stream to the TFT panel, e.g. as color index values of one or more pixels which are then either read directly by the test unit or coded similar to the monitored area(s). Together with the codes of the monitored area(s) these values are then transmitted to the super ordinate - safe - computer in which, for instance, a time-test for the evaluated data can be performed. If the time-lag between transmission of new input values and the reception of the return values is larger than a predefined and adjustable value this is clear indication
- the check value / random number may be interpreted as a binary code by the graphics generating unit which can then drive several distinct areas on the display, for example switching them black or white according to a particular bit in the binary code set as low or high.
- illumination of these pixels can then be verified by placing one ore more light-sensitive sensors on monitored areas of TFT display and then sending the output signal produced by said one or more sensors to the subordinate computer, as disclosed in German Patent application DE 10 2004 039 498 Al by the applicant.
- the check value is changed in sync with changing data to be displayed on display.
- the check value is transmitted as a bit-pattern to small areas of the display, preferably to areas at the edge of the display and displayed there, most preferably on an area not or hardly visible to the user.
- This displayed area is then read back and coded just like any area of the other sections of display or as a value of the colour setting of a single (or several) pixels (e.g. RGB colour value) which can then be read back by the test unit from the connection between PC and display and can then either be processed directly or be coded by the code generator. It can, for example, be required that this check value is returned either through the test unit or directly to the subordinate processor in a certain period of time in order to verify a false - free operation of the system.
- each Pixel of a TFT display is made up of three subordinate pixels in RGB colours (red, green, blue) . By lighting up the subordinate pixels any desired colour for the pixel can be obtained.
- the invention now uses these pixels as data containers to transmit data from the subordinate system or the computer generating the image data to the display.
- This data-container can, for example, be used to transmit a reference value via the line between the computer and the display.
- the display may display this "incorrect" pixel according to its value but one single pixel is practically irrelevant and will hardly be noticed by an observer. Irritations for the observer can further be avoided by using pixel as data- containers that are located in the outer areas of the display and can easily be covered.
- this reference value can now be read out directly from the connection between the PC and the display and transmitted to the test unit, thus no longer requiring the reference value to be looped through the PC to transmit it to the test unit.
- This has the crucial advantage that the image data generated by the computer and the reference value corresponding to the image data are transmitted in unison via the same channel and can no longer be separated.
- the specific reference value always corresponds to the image data generated, thus the reference value and the image date are always synchronous.
- Provisions for fault tolerance, like loops and cycles, involved in the transmission of the reference value looped through the computer for comparison with the correct image data read back from the display and then processed in the test unit are therefore no longer necessary because a difference between the reference value and the associated image date is impossible.
- the reference value can than be read out via the connection between the computer and the display, most commonly an LVDS, and then be fed directly into the test unit, preferably into the comparator in which it is compared to the test code generated by the code generator.
- This pixel serving as a data container can also be used for other aspects to improve the invention. It can, for instance, be used to store and transmit secure data like CRCs for relevant data or as data to change the area and/or range of supervised areas on the display which are monitored by the test unit.
- the pixels used as data containers can, for example, transmit the coordinates of the upper left corner and the coordinates of the lower right corner of a supervised section on the display for a given instance. This means that by changing the supervised sections on the display by transmitting the coordinates of the supervised section with the pixels as data containers the location and/or size of the supervised sections on the display can be changed during operation.
- Fig. 1 shows the principle configuration (schematic diagram) of a first embodiment of a safe display in accordance with the present invention for a panel PC, e.g. in a railcar;
- Fig. 2 shows a schematic diagram of a second embodiment of a display in accordance with the present invention
- Fig. 3 a schematic diagram of a third embodiment of a display according to the present invention.
- Fig. 4 a schematic diagram of a fourth embodiment of a display designed in accordance with the present invention.
- Fig. 1 shows the principle configuration of a safety unit 2 for the application of the method in a railcar of a train according to the present invention.
- the safety unit marked with 2 at large consists of a PC 4 for generating image data representing the processor and a display apparatus which is a TFT display 6 connected via a LVDS 8 that comprises several circuits with only 3 of them, however, being shown schematically.
- the safety unit 2 also includes a test unit that is designed as a combination of an FPGA 10 and micro controller units, simply called FPGA 10.
- This value can be looped through PC 4 and transmitted to the safe test unit 10 via an input circuit 26.
- the value of the input parameter 14 may also be directly transmitted to the FPGA 10.
- PC 4 transmits the safety-relevant information via display line 36 to be displayed on a delimited supervised area 16 of the TFT display 6.
- the safety-relevant information is displayed in the form of a "pre-rendered” and, as a consequence, definitely predefined bitmap on the TFT display 6.
- the high-frequency input signal of the TFT display 6 fed in via one line of the LVDS 8 is read out or read back by the FPGA 10 via the read-back line 22.
- the safe test unit 10 For carrying out the safety test the safe test unit 10 generates a CRC check sum in a test code generator 12 for the pre-rendered bitmap of supervised area 16, thus generating a "fingerprint" of this supervised area 16 at a given instance. Every bitmap generated by the PC 4 has a clearly assigned a pre-calculated CRC check sum as a reference code according to a chart 18 of the FPGA 10 and a possible value of the input parameter 14 is provided for each of these reference codes.
- the safe test unit 10 compares the test code calculated by the test code generator 12 with the reference codes according to the chart 18. If the test code is in accordance with a reference code listed in chart 18 the possible value of the input parameter according to the chart 18 is then compared by a comparator 20 with the value of the input parameter stored in a memory 24. If inadmissible discrepancies are determined during the process, a safety-focused failure reaction can be initiated by interruption of the power supply circuit 28 of the TFT display 6 via interruption line 34.
- a decisive factor for the safety-relevant evaluation of the speed display is the timely display of a corresponding speed value within admissible tolerances of time and value.
- the switch-off function activated by the FPGA 10 in the present embodiment works according to the "closed circuit current principle" (equivalent to safety-relevant relay circuits) so that it is necessary for the test unit to initiate an activation in order to maintain the normal operating state, whereas in case that the test unit is not working / switched off ("passivation") a safety-focused failure reaction is initiated.
- the alternative embodiment of a display according to the present invention shown in Fig. 2 is to transmit the negative test result resulting from the safety test in the safe test unit 10 via a feed back circuit 30 to a superordinate processor 32 that then initiates the safety-focused reaction as, for example, decelerating the railcar.
- this transmission may also be made wireless which, of course, applies to all kinds of signals.
- This subordinate processor 32 can, for example, be part of the same "safe" main computer producing the actual value 14 communicated to PC 4.
- the simplified embodiment shown in Fig. 3 differs from the ones according to Fig. 1 and 2 in that the safe test unit 10 basically only comprises the test code generator 12 for generating the code for the "Fingerprint" of delimited area 16 of display 6.
- the further steps of the safety test are performed outside of the safe test unit 10, e.g. in the subordinate processor 32, also called a "safe computer", thus further simplifying the design of the test unit 10.
- the input parameter 14 is not looped through PC 4. Instead the input parameter 14 together with the image corresponding for the input parameter 14 generated by the PC 4 is transmitted via display line 36 of LVDS 8 together and read out via line 38 to code generator 12 or in order to avoid a possible asynchronism between the input parameter 14 and the image data generated by PC 4 and then read back to the test unit 10 via read- back line 22 which may occur if transmission of the input parameter 14 is not timed correctly in the embodiment according to figure 1.
- the scope of the present invention is not limited to the objects or methods of each single claim, but also spans the combination thereof.
