Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION FIELD OF INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION The present invention relates to a device that automatically reports various security information generated within a dwelling unit to a remote information monitoring center via a telephone line.

Conventional technology Conventionally, this type of automatic notification device detects this signal and automatically sends an alarm when a disaster prevention/crime prevention (fire, gas, intrusion, emergency, etc.) sensor installed in the residence detects an abnormality and issues an alarm. It has a function that closes the telephone line and dials a preset reporting destination (information monitoring center), and also notifies the user of abnormalities through display and alarm sound inside the dwelling unit.

Figure 3 shows a concrete block diagram of this device.
Its functions and effects will be explained using figures.

1 is the main control unit, which mainly monitors and controls each internal function.
It has a built-in program and is composed of a microprocessor and memory. The memory stores the initial values necessary for operation (jζ: doba user - F, telephone number of the destination, telephone mouth, dialing method of the gland, sensor signal format for monitoring, etc.) from an externally connected setting device. 2, the setting is set to 1 through the setting device interface 3.Also, the monitoring/S9 constant mode switch 4 in the device allows the device to input initial values to the main control section 1 and enter the setting mode.・It informs you whether to monitor the external sensor or to monitor the external sensor.After inputting the initial value, the device is switched to the monitoring mode by the switch 4 and the device enters the sensor monitoring state.

Now, when one of the weighing sensors +J5 in the store detects an abnormality and issues an alarm, the sensor interface 6 in the device detects No. 13, and the main control unit 1i: inputs 4], Ru.

The main control unit 1 issues an alarm and determines the sensor and responds! 25 is output to the J display section 7 for sensor display (LED, etc.), and the corresponding alarm output section 8 is driven to output an alarm sound. n
Section 1 connects dial signal generating section 9 and telephone line 11! The control unit 11 is controlled by #J to perform a dial operation to a preset notification destination. Network control unit 10
1: Check the usage status of the telephone line 11 and telephone line 12, and confirm that a calling signal is being received from the station or @talk fi 12
1. When determining that A is not busy, the main control unit 1 connects the telephone line 11, dials the set dial number, and calls the destination. When the other party automatically answers,
The main control unit 1 sends the data transmission/reception unit 13 to the data transmission/reception unit 13), detects the response @1, sends the alarmed sensor, user code, etc. as data from the data transmission/reception unit 17, and the other party successfully receives @1'. control the telephone line 11
Release and return to clear state again. 14 is an external power supply section, which provides various functions from AC power! For a masterpiece, /8 is required to create and supply a C power supply.

However, the above-mentioned conventional self-reporting device does not allow the initial setting values of the security system to be transmitted from the information monitoring center side to the main control unit's main control unit via the telephone line. - In the case of the method of setting the information to the end, this device cannot be used. We have developed a new reporting device that downloads from the information monitoring center! There is the problem of not saying anything.

The present invention solves the above problem, and can be used for a security system that inputs the initial 11yJ setting value from an externally connected setting device, and for a security system that downloads it from an information center. The purpose is to provide a zero-spinning notification device.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problem 1-, the present invention provides an external monitoring/setting mode switch that switches between sensor monitoring operation mode 1 and a mode for setting initial values necessary for monitoring and reporting operation. In addition, there is an initial value setting function that connects an external setting device and inputs the initial value into the main control unit, and a mode in which the information monitoring center is called using a telephone group and the initial value is input to the main control unit through the telephone line manually. This is probably due to a configuration equipped with a setting mode selector switch that switches to one of the two modes.With the above configuration, by switching the setting mode selector switch, the initial value for device operation can be changed from the setting device connected externally. We have developed two types of devices that can be switched to a security system that uses an input method or a security system that downloads initial values from the information monitoring center. It's moisturizing and has a smooth feel.

Example An embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an automatic A notification device according to an embodiment of the present invention. 43 in Figure 1, 1 to 14 are 1 to 1 in Figure 3
Since it is the same as 4, the explanation of S will be omitted.

In FIG. 1, there are two modes in the initial setting mode, namely, a mode in which the initial value is set in the memory of the main control unit 1 from the conventional external setting device 2, and a mode in which the initial value is set in the memory of the main control unit 1 from the conventional external setting device 2, and an initial value is set in the telephone line 11 by connecting to the information monitoring center. , data transmitter/receiver 13
Provides a mode to be set in the memory of the main control unit 1 through
By using the switch 1G for switching the setting mode, it is possible to correspond to a system having any setting mode. To this end, communication procedures for initial value setting between the setting device 2 and the main control section 1 and between the information monitoring center and the main control section 1 are shared. That is, as shown in FIG. 2(b), the memory address, setting data (user code, destination phone number, dial format, etc.), parity check code, etc. are included in the message sent from the setting device 2 or the information monitoring center. Assigned, response message from main control unit 1 (0/NG)
Adopt a communication procedure that sends the information to the other party. Each message is transmitted and received as a serial signal at a constant speed, and in a normal reception state, the message ends in the sequence shown in FIG. 3(a). If an error response (NG) is returned during each message transmission, a method is adopted in which the same message is retransmitted.

In addition, in order to perform serial transmission, it has a boat B that transmits and receives data with the setting device interface 3, and a boat A that transmits and receives data with the data transmitter and receiver 13 that communicates with the center, and a boat switching signal C from the main controller 1. Data switching interface 1 that performs switching with the main control unit 1 at
5 is provided, and is configured to output a boat switching signal C by operating a setting mode changeover switch 16 to switch the setting mode.

Effects of the Invention According to the present invention, notification can be made to a security system in which the initial value is input from an externally connected setting device for VC purchasing operation, and also to a security system in which the initial value is downloaded from the information monitoring center side. The system 411 can be used by switching with a single setting mode changeover switch in the device, and it is not necessary to develop two types of devices, which is economical and increases versatility.
