Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of industrial control, and in particular to a method for multiplexing connecting lines for industrial control. Background Art

[0002] In modern industrial control systems, the connection between the control end and the execution end of the equipment is the key to achieve effective control. The traditional connection method faces many problems, such as Figure 1 As shown. First, from the perspective of physical IO interfaces, there are a large number of physical IO interfaces under traditional connection methods. When the industrial control system is expanded, the hardware cost will increase sharply. Every time a device or functional module is added, the physical IO interface needs to be increased accordingly, which not only means more hardware investment, but also these interfaces require special wiring. A large number of interfaces makes the wiring extremely complicated, and the lines are crisscrossed, which brings huge challenges to the wiring work and increases the difficulty of later maintenance. Secondly, in the traditional industrial field environment, the interfaces of devices such as sensors and actuators are usually independently configured and connected. This independent configuration connection method requires operators to carefully distinguish the functions of each port, which is a very cumbersome process. Since the interface function of each device needs to be confirmed separately, this inevitably leads to further increase in the complexity of wiring. Moreover, in actual operation, this connection method often causes a waste of resources. For example, in some cases, some ports may not be fully utilized in a specific working mode, but still occupy physical interface resources and need to be wired.

[0003] With the continuous development of industrial control technology, the demand for reducing costs, improving efficiency and simplifying wiring is becoming increasingly urgent. Time division multiplexing technology provides an effective way to solve these problems. Through time division multiplexing technology, a simple interface protocol can be defined to achieve the multiplexing of connection lines in the response working mode. This multiplexing method can effectively reduce the number of physical IO interfaces without affecting the normal operation of the equipment, thereby reducing hardware costs, simplifying the wiring process, and improving resource utilization and avoiding resource waste. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for multiplexing connecting wires for industrial control, so as to solve the problem of large number of connecting wires and complicated connection in the prior art of industrial control.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for multiplexing connecting lines for industrial control, comprising the following steps:

[0006] Step 1: Layout of lead segment signals, including layout of control ports, layout of single-chip microcomputer application interfaces, and layout of connection lines C;

[0007] Step 2: Based on time-division multiplexing, complete signal transmission between the control port and the microcontroller application interface.

[0008] Preferably, the layout of the control port includes the layout of the status input terminal A1 and the control output terminal B1. Specifically, the status input terminal A1 and the control output terminal B1 are commonly connected to a port X through a lead.

[0009] Preferably, the layout of the microcontroller application interface includes the layout of the execution input terminal A2 and the execution output terminal B2. Specifically, the execution input terminal A2 and the execution output terminal B2 are commonly connected to a port Y through a lead.

[0010] Preferably, the port X and the port Y are connected by a connection line C.

[0011] Preferably, a diode is provided between the execution input terminal A2 and the port Y, and a pull-up resistor is provided between the diode and the execution input terminal A2 to keep the signal at a high level state.

[0012] Preferably, a resistor and a triode are provided between the execution output terminal B2 and the port Y to achieve circuit level conversion and enhance signal driving ability.

[0013] Preferably, the process of completing signal transmission between the control port and the microcontroller application interface based on time-division multiplexing in Step 2 is as follows:

[0014] S21: The control output terminal B1 outputs a low-level pulse with a width between 2 milliseconds and 10 milliseconds, transmits it to the connection line C, the execution input terminal A2 receives the signal, and at the same time triggers the execution output terminal B2 to output a high level, indicating that the signal has been received;

[0015] S22: The high level output by the execution output terminal B2 makes the connection line C at a low level, the status input terminal A1 receives a low signal, confirms that the execution end has responded, and waits for the execution to complete;

[0016] S23: After the execution end runs the controlled action, the execution output terminal B2 outputs a low level, making the C connection signal high;

[0017] S24: After the status input terminal A1 receives a valid high level, it indicates that the action has been completed, and the next action is executed.

[0018] Therefore, by adopting the above-mentioned method for multiplexing connection lines for industrial control, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] (1) By multiplexing the connection lines, the present invention reduces the number of connection line ports used, releases the resources originally occupied by a large number of physical IO interfaces, and improves the resource utilization rate;

[0020] (2) The time-division multiplexing adopted by the present invention is convenient to use in response applications. Especially when there are multiple ports, it greatly reduces costs. Since the number of physical IO interfaces is reduced, the hardware cost is significantly reduced. At the same time, the simplified wiring also reduces the amount of wiring materials used, further reducing costs.

[0021] (3) The output of the control end adopts a pulse method with certain requirements, and the execution end adopts a level method signal, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the circuit board.
