Communication method for equipment testing in automated production lines

Abstract

The invention provides a communication method for equipment testing in an automated production line, comprising: S1. The host computer obtains the identity information of the equipment under test corresponding to the test slot in the corresponding production line; S2. The host computer broadcasts a broadcast signal carrying the identity information ; The broadcast signal is a test command or a network access command carrying identity information; S3. After receiving the broadcast signal, the device under test judges whether there is its own identity information in the broadcast signal, and if so, responds, otherwise keeps silent. Through the acquisition of device identity information, this solution can accurately know the specific device under test in each slot, and test the device under test by broadcasting the broadcast command carrying the identity information or make the device under test enter the network in a targeted manner. It can ensure that all the devices under test can quickly and correctly join the network of the upper unit that they should join, and can effectively solve the problems that the devices under test in the prior art are easily connected to the wrong network.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of production testing, and in particular relates to a communication method for testing equipment in an automated production line. Background technique [0002] Smart devices used in smart homes and smart systems require product testing during the production process. During the test, the devices under test will be placed in their respective test slots by the manipulator, and the host computer will send test commands to the devices under test. And the camera device in the corresponding slot will record the visible response of the equipment under test, such as lighting status, display status of the display screen, etc. At present, in the testing process of the automated production line, the host computer implements the test of the equipment to be tested by linking to the equipment to be tested, that is, the equipment needs to be connected to the network channel of the corresponding host computer. [0003] In ...

However, this method requires the staff to set the allowed access devices of the host computer in advance, such as setting the device type, device model, device ID, etc. that allow access to the device. The more detailed the settings, the lower the error rate will be. , but at the same time, the requirements for the staff will be higher, the work intensity will be greatly increased, and the practicability of each production line will be greatly reduced; moreover, although this method can improve the accuracy of the linking equipment to a certain extent, However, due to the untargeted nature of equipment access to the network, a production line may have to go through multiple kick-offs of unintended equipment under test before it can start testing, which will lead to low efficiency, and the more production lines running at the same time, the higher the efficiency.
