Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of recorder data collection, and in particular to a data collection method and system adapted to different recorders. Background Art

[0002] A recorder refers to a new type of intelligent paperless recording instrument with an advanced CPU as the core, supplemented by large-scale integrated circuits, large-capacity FLASH storage and a high-resolution graphic LCD display. It has the characteristics of small size, large number of channels, low power consumption, high accuracy, strong versatility, stable operation and high reliability.

[0003] There are many brands and styles of recorders in the current market. Whenever a customer needs to purchase a new acquisition station, they always have to consider whether it can be adapted to the recorder they already have. If it is not originally adapted, it is necessary to connect it on site and modify the program. Adapting the recorder provided by the customer will place a heavy burden on the development and operation and maintenance personnel. Every time a new model of recorder is connected, the connection and deployment work must be repeated. For customers, it is difficult to ensure that the software functions completed in a short period of time are stable and reliable.

[0004] Therefore, a data collection method and system adapted to different recorders came into being. Summary of the invention

[0005] The invention content of the present invention is to provide a data collection method and system adapted to different recorders, which mainly solves the problem that the existing collection station needs to modify the program after on-site docking for different recorders, and the above work needs to be repeated for each new model of recorder, resulting in a large workload for developers, and the stability of the software functions completed in a short time is difficult to guarantee.

[0006] The present invention proposes a data collection method adapted to different recorders, comprising the following steps:

[0007] S1, the recorder is connected to the collection station;

[0008] S2, determining whether the current recorder is a recorder that has been connected to the acquisition station, if yes, executing step S4, if no, executing step S3;

[0009] S3, capturing the communication command sent by the acquisition station, adjusting the recorder to a command receiving state, and sending the captured communication command to the recorder, saving the communication command that implements the corresponding function in the acquisition station, and returning to step S2;

[0010] S4, performing data migration according to the communication command currently saved by the recorder.

[0011] Preferably, the step S3 specifically includes:

[0012] S31, the recorder communicates with the host computer, and the acquisition station captures the communication process between the recorder and the host computer;

[0013] S32, the recorder is adjusted to a command receiving state, and receives a communication command in the communication process sent by the acquisition station;

[0014] S33, the collection station continuously monitors whether the recorder receives any of the communication commands and implements the corresponding function, and if so, saves the information; otherwise, switches to the next communication command.

[0015] Preferably, the step S31 specifically includes:

[0016] S311, the recorder establishes a communication path with the host computer;

[0017] S312, the acquisition station captures each communication command between the recorder and the host computer, and determines whether the current communication command is the end of the communication process, or the current recorder information changes, or the system mounts a disk. If so, terminate and execute the next step, otherwise continue capturing.

[0018] The present invention also proposes a data acquisition system adapted to different recorders, comprising a processor, and a judgment module, an automatic adaptation module and an acquisition function module electrically connected to the processor respectively;

[0019] The judgment module is used to identify whether the currently connected recorder is the recorder with existing records, and if so, directly connect the acquisition function module through the processor, and if not, connect the automatic adaptation module through the processor;

[0020] The automatic adaptation module is used to record the capture of the communication command between the recorder and the acquisition station; it is also used to verify and adjust the captured communication command; it is also used to persist the adjusted communication command in the database;

[0021] The acquisition function module is used to receive and send the communication command to the recorder; and is also used to save the data in the recorder to the hard disk.

[0022] Preferably, the automatic adaptation module includes a communication monitoring submodule, a command flow verification submodule and a data persistence submodule;

[0023] The communication monitoring submodule is used to record the capture of communication commands between the recorder and the collection station;

[0024] The command flow verification submodule is used to verify and adjust the captured communication commands;

[0025] The data persistence submodule is used to persist the adjusted communication command in the database.

[0026] Preferably, the automatic adaptation module further includes a UI control submodule;

[0027] The UI control submodule is used to display corresponding guidance on the display screen to assist in completing the adaptation process.

[0028] Preferably, the judgment module is used to judge whether the code of the current recorder is consistent with any code of the recorder in the database. If so, it is considered that the currently connected recorder is the recorder with existing records.

[0029] As can be seen from the above, the application of the technical solution provided by the present invention can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0030] First, the method and system proposed in the present invention give priority to obtaining the communication command of the recorder, and then the acquisition station verifies the receivable command types of the recorder one by one and records them in its own database, so as to ensure that the corresponding communication command can be automatically adapted when the current model of recorder is encountered next time, so as to realize the normal communication process between the recorder and the acquisition station;

[0031] Secondly, the method and system proposed in the present invention terminate the communication command capture by judging whether the current communication process ends, whether the recorder signal changes, and whether the system mounted disk increases. This can end the communication command capture process of the current recorder as soon as possible, avoid missing capture, and also avoid the possibility of erroneous capture.

[0035] The existing collection stations need to modify the program after on-site docking for different recorders, and the above work needs to be repeated for each new model of recorder, resulting in a large workload for developers, and the stability of software functions completed in a short period of time is difficult to guarantee.
