Abstract
Description
図1は、実施の形態1によるゲートウェイ装置を備えるデータ送信システムの構成の一例を示すブロック図である。データ送信システム1は、機器10と、外部装置20と、ゲートウェイ装置30と、を備える。機器10とゲートウェイ装置30とは、有線または無線の各種のネットワークまたは通信線を介して接続され、ゲートウェイ装置30と外部装置20とは、インターネットなどのネットワーク60を介して接続される。ネットワーク60は、有線であってもよいし、無線であってもよい。
実施の形態2では、データの収集周期、保存期間等のデータのロギング設定に関する情報を用いて送信データ抽出ルール370を作成する場合を例に挙げる。
実施の形態3では、データ送信設定情報390に登録された過去のレコードを学習し、データ収集設定情報またはクロスリファレンス情報335からデータ送信設定情報390のレコード、より具体的にはデータ名を生成することができるゲートウェイ装置について説明する。
実施の形態1では、データ収集部34で収集された収集データの中から外部装置20に送信する送信データを抽出するデータ送信設定情報390が生成される場合を示した。ゲートウェイ装置30では、収集データを用いて演算を行うことも可能であり、演算の結果得られるデータである演算データも送信データの対象となることがある。実施の形態4では、送信データに収集データだけでなく演算データを含む場合のデータ送信設定情報390の生成を支援することができるゲートウェイ装置を含むデータ送信システムおよび送信データ設定支援方法を説明する。
