Abstract

An object is to provide a maintenance monitor device which can display numerical data related to three or more display items on a graph simultaneously, with high visibility and operability. A maintenance monitor device ( 1 ) is capable of displaying a graph of numerical data of three or more of a plurality of display items related to an apparatus ( 14 ) subject to maintenance on a monitor screen ( 10 ), and includes: a list display unit ( 2 ) capable of displaying a list of the display items ( 22 ) on the monitor screen; a numerical data display unit ( 3 ) capable of displaying a graph of numerical data related to the three or more display items on the monitor screen in accordance with graph axes including a first axis which includes a time axis; a position information calculation unit ( 7 ) capable of calculating position information of a cursor ( 28 ) displayed on the monitor screen; a display item recognition unit ( 6 ) capable of recognizing the display items indicated by the cursor on the basis of the position information of the cursor calculated by the position information calculation unit; and a second axis display unit ( 5 ) configured to be capable of displaying only one scale ( 33 ) corresponding to the display item recognized by the display item recognition unit on a second axis included in the graph axes.

Claims (28)

1. A maintenance monitor device to display a graph of numerical data of three or more of a plurality of display items, the display items to be related to a diesel engine mounted on an industrial vehicle, simultaneously on a monitor screen, the three or more of the plurality of display items to be selected optionally from display items of the diesel engine, the maintenance monitor device comprising a central processing unit and a memory storing instructions:

wherein the central processing unit is configured to execute the instructions stored on the memory to:

display, responsive to accessing the stored instructions, a list of the display items on the monitor screen;

display, responsive to accessing the stored instructions, three or more display items from the list of the display items selected optionally by a cursor;

display, responsive to accessing the stored instructions, a graph of numerical data related to the three or more display items on the monitor screen in accordance with graph axes, the graph axes to include a first axis which includes a time axis and a second axis which includes a scale to be different based, at least in part, on the display item; and

a second axis display to display only one scale to correspond to one of the display items indicated by the cursor on the second axis included in the graph axes,

wherein the central processing unit is configured to execute the stored instructions to, when the cursor overlaps with one of the display items displayed on the list of the display items, trigger the second axis to display the scale corresponding to the one of the display items overlapping with the cursor on the second axis when the one of the display items overlapping with the cursor is one of the display items selected, and

wherein the central processing unit is configured to execute the stored instructions to, when the cursor overlaps with one of the display items displayed on the list of the display items, maintain the scale displayed on the second axis when the one of the display items overlapping with the cursor is not one of the display items selected,

or

wherein the central processing unit is configured execute the stored instructions to, when the cursor overlaps with one graph line of a plurality of graph lines which are displayed on the graph and which correspond to the three or more display items, trigger the second axis to display the scale corresponding to the display item which corresponds to the one graph line overlapping with the cursor on the second axis when the display item which corresponds to the one graph line overlapping with the cursor is one of the display items selected, and

wherein the central processing unit is configured execute the stored instructions to, when the cursor overlaps with one graph line which is displayed on the graph and which corresponds to three or more display items, maintain the scale displayed on the second axis when the display item which corresponds to the one graph line overlapping with the cursor is not one of the display items selected.

2. The maintenance monitor device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the central processing unit is configured to display the graph of only the numerical data of the selected display items.

3. The maintenance monitor device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the central processing unit is configured to indicate, on the graph, the numerical data of the one of the display items to be indicated by the cursor by a graph line varied from the other numerical data.

4. The maintenance monitor device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the central processing unit is configured to maintain on the second axis display, a constant width for a tick-mark interval of the scale regardless of the one of the display items.

5. A non-transitory computer-readable media, the non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-readable instructions to display a graph of numerical data of three or more display items, the three or more display items related to a diesel engine mounted on an industrial vehicle, simultaneously on a monitor screen, the three or more of a plurality of display items selected optionally from display items of the diesel engine;

wherein the computer-readable instructions are configured to initiate a processor to execute:

a list display process to display a list of the display items on the monitor screen;

a display item selection process to optionally select three or more display items from the list of the display items by an operation of a cursor,

a numerical data display process to display a graph of numerical data related to the three or more display items of the monitor screen in accordance with graph axes including a first axis, which includes a time axis, and a second axis, which includes a scale, which is different based, at least in part, on the display item; and

a second axis display process to display only one scale corresponding to one of the three or more display items indicated by the cursor on the second axis included in the graph axes,

wherein the computer-readable instructions are further configured to initiate the processor to, when the cursor overlaps with one of the display items displayed on the list of the display items, trigger the second axis to display the scale corresponding to the one of the display items overlapping with the cursor on the second axis when the one of the display items overlapping with the cursor is one of the display items selected by the display item selection process, and

wherein the computer-readable instructions are further configured to initiate the processor to when the cursor overlaps with one of the display items displayed on the list of the display items, maintain the scale displayed on the second axis the one of the display items overlapping with the cursor is not one of the display items selected by the display item selection process,

or

wherein the computer-readable instructions are configured to initiate the processor to, when the cursor overlaps with one graph line of a plurality of graph lines which are displayed on the graph and which correspond to the three or more display items, trigger the second axis to display the scale corresponding to the display item which correspond with the one graph line overlapping with the cursor on the second axis when the display item which corresponds to the one graph line overlapping with the cursor is one of the display items selected by the display item selection process, and

wherein the computer-readable instructions are configured to initiate the processor to, when the cursor overlaps with one graph line which are displayed on the graph and which correspond to three or more display items, maintain the scale displayed on the second axis when the display item which corresponds to the one graph line overlapping with the cursor is not one of the display items selected by the display item selection process.
