Field apparatus remote debugging system and debugging method thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to a field apparatus remote debugging system and a debugging method thereof and is characterized in that the system comprises a field apparatus provided with a monitor program module, serial interfaces are used to connect a field computer provided with a communication program module and a remote debugging computer provided with a debugging service program module and communication is established between the field computer and the remote debugging computer through the internet. The debugging method comprises the following steps: the debugging service program is operated on the remote debugging computer, the field computer is used for acquiring data or status from the site; the debugging personnel confirm debugging instructions according to the data and transmits the instructions to the field apparatus by the remote debugging computer, the internet and the field computer and judges whether to continue debugging or not. In the invention, the internet is employed to carry out remote debugging on the field apparatus without adding dedicated gateways or other hardwares, thus greatly reducing time and expenses for device debugging and maintenance. The method is simple and the cost is low.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to Internet communication technology, in particular to a system and method for remote debugging of field equipment by using the Internet. Background technique [0002] At present, due to the influence of various factors such as the field environment, the operating parameters set before the equipment leaves the factory may not meet the requirements during on-site operation. When the equipment is installed, technicians must be sent to the site to check the working status and operating parameters of the equipment. Debugging; when the equipment fails, technicians must also be sent to the scene to troubleshoot. For the manufacturer, sending technicians to the site for equipment debugging will not only waste a lot of time, but also generate a lot of expenses and increase the production cost. For users, if the equipment fails, the technicians cannot arrive at the scene in time, which will affect the production of the enterprise and caus...

Problems solved by technology

Such as the remote control of household appliances, it is necessary to install a data transceiver inside each household appliance, and to increase the home network including hardware such as home control modules and home gateways. Obviously, the increase of these special equipment not only increases the equipment cost, but also increased system complexity

However, for the home appliances that have been used in the past, because these home appliances are not equipped with corresponding data transceivers, in order to realize remote control, hardware modification must be carried out, and even some home appliances cannot be modified, but can only be replaced with new products. Realize remote control

[0004] In addition, although most current field devices have serial interfaces that can be connected to computers, they cannot use methods similar to "network appliances" to realize remote debugging functions without adding special equipment or transforming the original system.

[0005] Moreover, the existing home appliance remote control is only aimed at mature products that have been debugged before leaving the factory and do not need to be debugged again; and its remote control through the network is limited to limited parameters that have been set when leaving the factory, such as The adjustment of ordinary parameters such as the temperature control of the refrigerator is not and cannot realize the comprehensive debugging of the equipment

[0006] In short, for the current equipment that needs to be repeatedly debugged by professionals on site, it is impossible to use existing technology to realize remote debugging of on-site equipment without adding or modifying hardware; moreover, hardware modification will inevitably increase costs and must be stopped. The operation of the equipment affects the use of the equipment
