Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of data alarm, and in particular to a method for alarming based on slicer data collection. Background Art

[0002] In the current photovoltaic ingot slicing process, the slicer alarm signal is provided by a three-color light installed on the slicer. The user judges the operating status of the equipment by visually observing the different colors of the three-color light. When an abnormality occurs, the user analyzes and handles the problem further by observing the three-color light of the slicer and the alarm information prompted by the operation screen.

[0003] The existing alarm solution requires fixed human resources to conduct regular on-site inspections; as the number of equipment in the workshop increases and the physical scope expands, the workload brought by the inspection work also increases.

[0004] The timeliness of the alarm is highly dependent on manual labor, and it is impossible to achieve unit-level alarms within seconds and notify relevant users for processing.

[0005] There is no detailed data record for the alarm, let alone statistics and analysis, and it is impossible to provide more data analysis and data support for subsequent equipment repair and maintenance. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for alarming based on slicer data collection, comprising the following steps:

[0007] Step S1: setting a collection time interval based on the host computer software on the slicer operating computer, regularly acquiring the slicer's alarm data based on the collection time interval, and uploading the alarm data to a remote server;

[0008] Step S2: The remote server records the alarm data in progress through the data uploaded by the slicer;

[0009] Step S3: Based on the monitoring software, the data in the remote server is patrolled regularly and analyzed to see whether there is any ongoing alarm data. If so, the alarm information is displayed and an alarm signal is generated according to the alarm information; if not, the patrol is continued according to the scheduled time.

[0010] Step S4: After receiving the alarm information, the user turns off the alarm signal based on the monitoring software, and the remote server records the information of the alarm data;

[0011] Step S5: When the alarm occurs again, repeat steps S1 to S4.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the collection time interval in step S1 is 1-5 seconds.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the alarm data in step S1 includes alarm time, alarm level, alarm code and machine number.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in step S1, the host computer software automatically calls the data transmission interface provided by the remote server through the network medium. The data transmission interface is a webapi interface, and the alarm data is uploaded according to the content format defined by the webapi interface.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in step S3, the monitoring software is electrically connected to the IO control module via a network protocol, and the output port of the IO control module is electrically connected to an alarm light.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the IO control module is used to control the power on / off state of the output port, and controls the alarm light switch based on the power on / off state.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the alarm modes of the alarm light include constant light, flashing and alarm sound.

[0018] Due to the application of the above technical solution, the present invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0019] The present invention can eliminate the need for manual and timed on-site inspections of production workshops by cooperating with upper computer software and a remote server. When a slicer alarm occurs, it can immediately provide feedback to the user in the monitoring room where the equipment is running, and transmit the alarm information to the user through a combination of visual and sound methods. The user can obtain the on-site alarm information through the computer in the monitoring room, so as to make arrangements and preparations for abnormal handling, thereby improving the timeliness of alarm handling. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0020] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a slicer data collection and alarm method provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0022] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequential order. It should be understood that the numbers used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the present application described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, device, product or equipment that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or equipment.

[0023] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for alarming based on slicer data collection, comprising the following steps:

[0025] Step S1: setting a collection time interval based on the host computer software on the slicer operating computer, regularly acquiring the slicer's alarm data based on the collection time interval, and uploading the alarm data to a remote server;

[0026] Step S2: The remote server records the alarm data in progress through the data uploaded by the slicer;

[0027] Step S3: Based on the monitoring software, the data in the remote server is patrolled regularly and analyzed to see whether there is any ongoing alarm data. If so, the alarm information is displayed and an alarm signal is generated according to the alarm information; if not, the patrol is continued according to the scheduled time.

[0028] Step S4: After receiving the alarm information, the user turns off the alarm signal based on the monitoring software, and the remote server records the information of the alarm data;

[0029] Step S5: When the alarm occurs again, repeat steps S1 to S4.

[0030] Specifically, the slicer industrial control computer host software obtains the slicer alarm information regularly through the Modbus protocol; when the alarm signal read by the host software changes from none to yes, the server-side webapi interface is called and uploaded according to the content format defined by the webapi interface; a new alarm-in-progress data is added to the server database; the monitoring software program of the monitoring room computer obtains data regularly through the webapi interface, and when the alarm data is obtained, the monitoring software program sets the output port of the IO control module to the power-on state through the network protocol; at this time, the alarm light is turned on, and sounds and lights are emitted. The user can modify the alarm data status in the server through the monitoring software, and close the alarm data that has been determined to be closed. When the monitoring software obtains data without alarm, the alarm light is turned off, and the alarm light stops emitting sounds and lights.

[0031] Operators no longer need to conduct scheduled workshop inspections, reducing workload and stress. With alarm information uniformly distributed to the equipment monitoring room, operators can now optimally stand by or perform other assigned tasks while monitoring. This not only reduces user human resources but also improves the timeliness of alarm processing. Furthermore, the entire alarm data process is collected in an integrated manner, allowing subsequent users to explore and utilize it in a wider range of areas.

[0032] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the collection time interval in step S1 is 1-5 seconds.

[0033] Optionally, the collection time interval is 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, 4 seconds or 5 seconds.

[0034] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the alarm data in step S1 includes alarm time, alarm level, alarm code and machine number.

[0035] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in step S1, the host computer software automatically calls the data transmission interface provided by the remote server through the network medium. The data transmission interface is a webapi interface, and the alarm data is uploaded according to the content format defined by the webapi interface.

[0036] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in step S3, the monitoring software is electrically connected to the IO control module via a network protocol, and the output port of the IO control module is electrically connected to an alarm light.

[0037] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the IO control module is used to control the power on / off state of the output port, and control the alarm light switch based on the power on / off state.

[0038] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the alarm modes of the alarm light include constant light, flashing and alarm sound.

[0039] In summary, the present invention can eliminate the work of manual timed on-site inspections of the production workshop through the cooperation of the upper computer software and the remote server. When the slicer alarm occurs, it can be fed back to the user in the monitoring room where the equipment is running at the first time, and the alarm information can be transmitted to the user through a combination of vision and sound. The user can obtain the on-site alarm information through the computer in the monitoring room, so as to make work arrangements and preparations for abnormal handling, thereby improving the timeliness of alarm handling.

[0040] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0041] The above are merely specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any modifications or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
