Processing instrument and processing instrument system
A processing instrument with configurable processing conditions makes it possible to simplify operations, prevent operation errors, and reuse, without modification, installed software having a track record in operation. An operation terminal includes a research work processing section with software having a track recording in operation that provides a function which receives processing conditions from an input section, a function which executes processing according to processing conditions, and a function which displays results of the processing. A fixed processing condition database stores fixed processing conditions set to a predetermined values. A routine work processing section includes a function for receiving variable processing conditions that are a part of the processing conditions from the input section, a function for creating the processing conditions necessary for the operation terminal by combining the variable and fixed processing conditions, and a function for displaying the result of the processing from the research processing section.
1. A processing instrument which displays the results of processing by receiving processing conditions comprising:
an input section,
a display section,
a first processing section having a function which receives detailed processing conditions from said input section, a function which executes the processing according to the detailed processing conditions, and a function which displays the result of the processing in said display section, a fixed processing condition data base in which fixed processing conditions set to predetermined values are stored, a second processing section having a function which receives variable processing conditions which are a part of the detailed processing condition from said input section, a function which creates detailed processing conditions necessary for said first processing section by combining the variable processing conditions in question and the fixed processing conditions received from said fixed processing condition data base, a function which sends the created detailed processing conditions to said first processing section using a user interface message, and a function which receives a display content of the result of the processing from said first processing section and displays it in said display section; and wherein a GUI control script data base in which a GUI control script is stored is provided and the GUI control script which is stored in said GUI control script data base is referenced when said second processing section sends a user interface message to said first processing section.
2. A processing instrument according to claim 1 , wherein
said second processing section receives a display content of the result of the processing from said first processing section by sending a user interface message to said first processing section.
3. A processing instrument according to claim 2 , wherein
a GUI control script data base in which a GUI control script is stored is provided and the GUI control script which is stored in said GUI control script data base is referenced when said second processing section sends a user interface message to said first processing section.
4. A processing instrument according to claim 1 , wherein
an output screen from said second processing section is displayed in the foremost side of said display section and an input from said input section is received by said second processing section.
5. A processing instrument according to claim 1 , wherein
said second processing section has a function which displays a part of the screens or all of the screens among a screen to receive said variable processing conditions, a screen to validate said detailed processing conditions, and a screen to display the result of the processing.
6. A processing instrument according to claim 1 , wherein
said second processing section has a function which displays a screen in said display section to edit said fixed processing conditions.
7. A processing instrument system including a processing instrument to display the result of the processing by receiving processing conditions, a remote terminal, and a channel to connect said processing instrument to said remote terminal, wherein said processing instrument comprises a first processing section having a function which receives detailed processing conditions by input operations, a function which executes a processing according to the detailed processing conditions, and a function which outputs result of the processing in a display section, said remote terminal comprises an input section, a display section, a fixed processing condition data base which stores fixed processing conditions set to predetermined values, and a second processing section having a function which receives variable processing conditions which are a part of the detailed processing conditions from said input section, a function which creates detailed processing conditions necessary for said first processing section by combining the variable processing conditions in question and fixed processing conditions received from said fixed processing conditions, a function which sends the created detailed processing conditions to said first processing section using a user interface message, a function which receives a display content of the result of the processing from said processing section and displays it in said display section; and wherein a GUI control script data base in which a GUI control script is stored is provided and the GUI control script which is stored in said GUI control script data base is referenced when said second processing section sends a user interface message to said first processing section.
8. A processing instrument system according to claim 7 , wherein
a plurality of remote terminals are connected to said channel.
9. A processing instrument system according to claim 7 , wherein
a plurality of processing instruments are connected to said channel.
