[0040] Embodiment 1

[0041] See also Figure 1 This embodiment provides an inspection system based on DCS data collection, including:

[0042] The first inspection module is used to collect actual values ​​of pre-set inspection items.

[0043] The actual value of the preset inspection item is the collected value of the DCS number that is pre-bound to the inspection item and corresponds to the inspection item.

[0044] The early warning module is used to issue an early warning message based on the actual value of the preset inspection item and the preset alarm threshold corresponding to the inspection item after receiving the user confirmation instruction.

[0045] In the actual application of this embodiment, after receiving the user confirmation instruction, the early warning module issues an early warning message based on the actual value of the preset inspection item and the preset alarm threshold corresponding to the inspection item, specifically including:

[0046] After receiving the user confirmation instruction, the early warning module determines whether the actual value of the preset inspection item exceeds the preset alarm threshold corresponding to the inspection item, and if so, issues an early warning message.

[0047] See also Figure 2 In the actual application of this embodiment, the inspection system also includes: a second inspection module, which is used to receive the measurement value of the instrument corresponding to each preset inspection item input by the user at the user's observation time.

[0048] See also Figure 2 In the actual application of this embodiment, the inspection system also includes: a storage module, which is used to store the actual values ​​of the pre-set inspection items collected by the first inspection module and the measurement values ​​of the instrument corresponding to each pre-set inspection item input by the user at the user's observation time.

[0049] In the actual application of this embodiment, the early warning module is also used to obtain the actual value of the first preset time period of each inspection item in the storage module, and issue an alarm message based on the actual value of the first preset time period of each inspection item in the storage module and the measurement value of the instrument corresponding to the inspection item input by the user for each pre-set inspection item at the user's observation time.

[0050] The first preset time period of each inspection item includes a second preset time period before the user observation time corresponding to the measurement value of the inspection item and a third preset time period after the user observation time corresponding to the measurement value of the inspection item.

[0051] In the actual application of this embodiment, the second preset time period is 30 seconds.

[0052] The third preset time period is 30 seconds.

[0053] In the practical application of this embodiment, the early warning module issues an alarm message according to the actual value of the first preset time period of each inspection item in the storage module and the measurement value of the instrument corresponding to each preset inspection item input by the user at the user's observation time, specifically including:

[0054] The early warning module obtains the median of the actual value of the first preset time period of each inspection item according to the actual value of the first preset time period of each inspection item in the storage module.

[0055] Based on the measurement value of the instrument corresponding to each preset inspection item input at the user observation time and the median corresponding to the inspection item, obtain the absolute value of the difference between the measurement value of the instrument corresponding to each preset inspection item input at the user observation time and the median corresponding to the inspection item;

[0056] It is determined whether the absolute value of the difference is within a preset error range corresponding to the inspection item. If the absolute value of the difference is not within the preset error range corresponding to the inspection item, an alarm message is issued.

[0057] In this embodiment, the error range corresponding to the inspection item is 5% of the range of the instrument corresponding to the inspection item.

[0058] See also Figure 2 In the actual application of this embodiment, the inspection system also includes: a first generating module, which is used to obtain the fault information of the DCS or measuring instrument submitted by the user, and generate a defect list according to the fault information.

[0059] See also Figure 2 In the actual application of this embodiment, the inspection system also includes: a second generation module, which is used to generate a hidden danger list when the error exceeds the allowable upper limit, and notify the corresponding person in charge of the hidden danger list via email or text message.

[0060] In the actual application of this embodiment, the inspection system further includes: a route module; the route module is used to generate an inspection route according to the DCS position number.

[0061] In addition, this embodiment further provides an inspection method based on DCS data collection, characterized in that the method is a method executed by any of the above-mentioned inspection systems based on DCS data collection.

[0062] The inspection system based on DCS data collection of the present invention adopts a first inspection module to collect the actual value of the inspection item set in advance; the actual value of the inspection item set in advance is the collected value of the DCS bit number pre-bound to the inspection item and corresponding to the inspection item; and the early warning module is adopted to issue an early warning message based on the actual value of the inspection item set in advance and the alarm threshold set in advance corresponding to the inspection item after receiving the user confirmation instruction. Compared with the prior art, it can quickly confirm the problem and handle it in time to ensure the normal operation of the device.

[0063] Embodiment 2

[0064] In actual application, when the inspection system based on DCS data collection provided in the first embodiment is used, the inspection personnel carry a PDA to inspect on-site at the enterprise (at this time, the handheld PDA is connected to the inspection system based on DCS data collection in communication). Figure 3 , the process is as follows:

[0065] In the actual application of the inspection system based on DCS data collection in this example, the DCS bit numbers corresponding to the inspection items are collected in advance, and the corresponding relationship between the inspection items and the collection values ​​of the DCS bit numbers is set.

[0066] When the user confirms that the actual value of the pre-set inspection item collected by the first inspection module of the inspection system based on DCS data collection is correct, (the external operator can view the real-time value and historical trend of the current position number on the mobile terminal, and communicate and confirm with the internal operator to discover the fault of DCS or on-site measuring instruments in advance and deal with it in time. If it cannot be handled at that time, a defect list is generated when the inspection task is submitted to track the defect repair status.) The inspection personnel triggers the confirmation instruction in the inspection system based on DCS data collection. After the system receives the user's confirmation instruction, the early warning module in the inspection system based on DCS data collection issues a warning message based on the actual value of the pre-set inspection item and the pre-set alarm threshold corresponding to the inspection item.

[0067] Under the premise of allowable error and accuracy, the upper limit of the error between the actual measurement value and the DCS bit number acquisition value is usually preset to 5% of the range.

[0068] Alternatively, see Figure 4 When there is no communication connection between the handheld PDA and the inspection system based on DCS data collection, the inspection personnel will publicly download the inspection task in advance and cache it in the PDA, and then go to the site for inspection with the PDA. After the inspection task is completed, the inspection task is uploaded to an environment with a network. The system will obtain the historical values ​​of the bit numbers before and after the actual instrument measurement, sort them, obtain the median, and conduct internal and external operation comparison analysis. If the error exceeds the upper limit, the system will generate a hidden danger list and send the abnormal situation to the relevant person in charge through email, SMS, etc. for processing.

[0069] This embodiment binds the inspection items and DCS bit numbers, and presets alarm thresholds for measurement values ​​and DSC acquisition values, which can assist inspection personnel in making more accurate judgments during the inspection process, discover problems with the DCS or field instruments in advance, and handle them in a timely manner.
