[0022] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0023] The host computer is a computer that can issue specific control commands. It can control the lower computer equipment to complete various operations through pre-set commands. The host computer can communicate with the lower computer through various communication protocols (such as recommended standard (RS) 232, RS485, Ethernet, etc.) to obtain the operating status of the lower computer, send control commands, etc. At present, the host computer is widely used in automation control systems.

[0024] Usually, the host computer generally adopts a one-to-one hardware matching mode, that is, one host computer matches one slave device. However, the types of slave devices are increasing, and each device has a unique communication protocol and data format, etc., so this matching mode limits the versatility and compatibility of the system. This not only increases the complexity and cost of system deployment, but also limits the flexible interconnection and interoperability between devices, making it difficult to adapt to rapidly changing market demands and diverse device environments.

[0025] Based on this, Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application provides a configuration method for a host computer. The method is applicable to the host computer, and the type of the host computer is not limited.

[0026] See also Figure 1 , the method may include steps S110-S130.

[0027] In step S110, a connection is established with a lower computer. The lower computer can be any type of lower computer, and this application does not limit it. The upper computer can establish a connection with the lower computer through a corresponding communication protocol, such as RS232, RS485, Ethernet and other protocols.

[0028] In step S120, the register requirement of the lower computer is obtained. The upper computer may obtain the register requirement of the lower computer by sending instructions to the lower computer. The register requirement of the lower computer may include configuration parameters and number of registers required by the lower computer.

[0029] In step S130, the configuration of the register of the host computer is modified according to the register requirement. For example, the content in the register configuration file of the host computer can be modified according to the register requirement so that the host computer can read the register configuration information required by the lower computer. When the host computer reads the modified register configuration information, the register can be configured according to the requirements of the lower computer.

[0030] Based on this application, the register configuration of the upper computer can be modified according to the needs of the lower computer, so that the upper computer can adapt to the needs of different types of lower computer devices, which helps to improve the versatility and compatibility of the upper computer.

[0031] Optionally, the configuration of the register may include the number of registers and configuration parameters of the registers, and the configuration parameters of the registers may be used to specify the performance of the registers. Based on the number of registers and the configuration parameters of the registers, the registers of the host computer may be adapted to the data format and storage requirements of the slave computer.

[0032] Furthermore, the configuration parameters of the register may include one or more of the following: register address; length; parameter; data type; multiplier; unit; remark; maximum value; minimum value.

[0033] The register address can be used to indicate the address of the register in the host computer; the length can be used to indicate the number of bytes that the register can store, such as 2 bytes; the parameter can be used to indicate the parameter stored in the register, such as voltage or current; the data type can be used to indicate the data type that the register can store, such as integer or floating point; the multiplier can be used to indicate the multiplier when the register stores data; the unit can be used to indicate the unit of the parameter stored in the register, such as the unit V of voltage or the unit A of current; the remark can be used to indicate the remark information of the parameter stored in the register; the maximum value can be used to indicate the maximum value of the parameter stored in the register, such as the maximum value of voltage; the minimum value can be used to indicate the minimum value of the parameter stored in the register, such as the minimum value of voltage. ‌‌It is worth noting that the configuration parameters of the register can also include other content, which can be determined according to actual needs.

[0034] Optionally, step S130 may include step S131 and step S132.

[0035] In step S131, modification information is generated based on the register requirement.

[0036] In step S132, the modification information is mapped to a first table of the host computer, and the first table can be used to store register configuration information of the host computer.

[0037] Exemplarily, the first table can be an Excel file in a debug folder under an executable binary (bin) file of the host computer, and the format of the modified information can be set according to the data format in the Excel file. When the host computer reads the register configuration information in the Excel file, the modified register configuration information can be obtained. Based on the first table, it helps the host computer to quickly read the register configuration required by the lower computer.

[0038] Combine the following Figure 2 and Figure 3 , an example is given to introduce the configuration method of the host computer in the embodiment of the present application.

[0039] like Figure 2 As shown, usually when the host computer starts, it will first check whether the serial port attribute information is normal. If the serial port is not configured or opened, the user will be reminded to configure the serial port. In addition, before executing each instruction, the host computer will also check whether the serial port is normal. If it is not normal, a pop-up box will be displayed to remind you.

[0040] Exemplarily, after the host computer is started, the entire host computer homepage may include a data display module, a fault code module, a debugging curve module and an editing register module. Among them, the data display module can be used to display the data in the register, including measured data, debugging data and calibration data. The measured data is generated during actual use, such as measured data 1 and measured data 2. The debugging data is generated during the debugging process, such as debugging data 1 and debugging data 2. The calibration data is the data obtained by calibration, such as calibration data 1 and calibration data 2. The fault code module can be used to display the fault information of the host computer in real time. The debugging curve module can be used to update and record the debugging curve. The updating process of the debugging curve may include: the host computer uses a sending thread to send instructions to the lower computer to obtain data, and uses a receiving thread to receive data, and then updates the debugging curve according to the received data. The editing register module can be used to display the information of the register and modify the register information of the host computer according to the needs of the lower computer. The register information may include the measured data, debugging data and calibration data of the register. In addition, the host computer also has a data log (log) function for recording data during the interaction between the host computer and the lower computer. For example, the data generated by the debugging curve module during the process of updating the debugging curve can be stored in the data log.

[0041] For example, the process of modifying the register information of the host computer can be as follows: Figure 3 As shown. After the upper computer is connected to the lower computer, the user can enter the upper computer homepage and configure the serial port first. After the serial port configuration is successful, the user jumps to the edit register interface through the [Edit Register] function in the [Settings] function. The edit register page can read the excel file in the debug folder under the executable bin file of the upper computer to obtain the current register information and display it on the page. After the user enters the edit register page, if the user chooses to modify the register information, the user's customized modification information (number of registers, register parameters) based on the needs of the lower computer is collected. Convert the modification information into binary form and write it into the mapped excel file, and the register information on the page can be updated. When the upper computer reads the register information from the excel file, it obtains the modified register information.

[0042] based on Figure 3 The method shown can fully customize the register information of the upper computer according to the needs of the lower computer, thereby adapting to different types of lower computers and achieving the versatility of the upper computer.
