Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, most of the vending machines on the market have the drivers solidified into the vending machines when they leave the factory. ) or want to add some actual functions, then the after-sales personnel need to post the circuit board with the modified program for replacement or go to the field to upgrade the driver program through a dedicated handheld device, and some vending machine systems have more than one Drivers, some of which are three or four drivers working together, the way to update the driver by replacing the circuit board in this way not only requires a lot of manpower and material resources, but also consumes a lot of time
The number of vending machines currently in use is relatively large. If the machines across the country are upgraded, the workload will be extremely huge

Embodiment 1

[0053] This embodiment provides a one-to-one upgrade method, a remote upgrade method for vending machine drivers, including the following steps:

[0054] Step 1), setting an upgrade request identification code, the upgrade request identification code includes an upgrade request flag;

[0055] Step 2), the first terminal for sending the upgrade program sends the upgrade request identification code to the automatic vending machine;

[0056] Step 3), the automatic vending machine judges whether the identification of the upgrade request flag is the same as the set upgrade request identification code, and if the same sends a response to the first terminal, and executes the next step; otherwise, end;

[0057] Step 4), the first terminal receives the response, and sends the upgrade program to the automatic vending machine.

[0058] This method is suitable for one-to-one upgrades, such as figure 2 As shown, a vending machine has a driver board. The upgrade process is: the driver bo...

Embodiment 2

[0060] This method is suitable for one-to-many horizontal upgrade. Multiple vending machines share one network module, and each vending machine has only one driver board. A method for remotely upgrading an automatic vending machine driver, comprising the steps of:

[0061] Step 1, set upgrade request identification code, described upgrade request identification code comprises upgrade request mark position and automatic vending machine mark position;

[0062] Step 2. The first terminal for sending the upgrade program sends the upgrade request identification code to the vending machine;

[0063] Step 3, the automatic vending machine that has received the upgrade request identification code judges whether the upgrade request flag is the same as the upgrade request flag of the set upgrade request identification code, if they are the same, execute the next step; otherwise, end;

[0064] Step 4. The automatic vending machine that has received the upgrade request identification code...

Embodiment 3

[0069] This method is suitable for one-to-many vertical upgrades. The same vending machine has only one network module but multiple driver boards. A method for remotely upgrading an automatic vending machine driver, comprising the following steps:

[0070] Step 1, set the upgrade request identification code, the upgrade request identification code includes the upgrade request flag and the driver board flag;

[0071] Step 2. The first terminal for sending the upgrade program sends the upgrade request identification code to the driver board of the vending machine;

[0072] Step 3, the driver board that has received the upgrade request identification code judges whether the upgrade request flag is the same as the upgrade request flag of the set upgrade request identification code, if they are the same, execute the next step; otherwise, end;

[0073] Step 4. The driver board that has received the upgrade request identification code judges whether the received upgrade request iden...

Abstract

The invention provides a vending machine drive program remote upgrading method and system. An upgrading request identification code is set for a vending machine or each drive board of the vending machine.Program upgrading can be achieved for a vending machine system only provided with one network module. Upgrading of driving programs can be achieved in a one-to-one mode through identification of identification codes, and one-to-many transverse upgrading, one-to-many longitudinal upgrading and mixed upgrading can also be achieved.
