Abstract

Abstract A numerical control system includes an information input-output circuit (3), a processing unit (1), a display (4) and a memory (2). The information input-output circuit (3) has an input (31) for the address numbers of the information elements to be displayed, an input (32) for the time scale with which the display is presented, an input (33) for the address number of a trigger information element, an input (34) for a command for selection of a repetitive picture or a set of non-repetitive pictures, and an input (35) for a delay time, if any. The processing unit (1) has a input (11) for selecting address numbers of the information elements to be displayed, an input (12) for selecting the time scale with which the display is presented, an input (13) for selecting the address number of a trigger information element, an input (14) for conducting a command for selecting a repetitive picture or a set of non-repetitive pictures, and an input (15) for selecting a delay time. The display (4) has a display (41) for the address numbers of the information elements to be displayed, a graphic display (42) for displaying the sequential progress or operational positions of the information elements, and a display (43) for the display conditions.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 184 words
A numerical control system for displaying information elements, comprising: input-output means including: means for inputting address numbers of a plurality of information elements to be displayed; means for inputting a time scale for a graphic display; means for inputting an address number of a display trigger information element; means for inputting a command for selection of either a set of repetitive pictures or a non-repetitive picture; and means for inputting a delay time; processing means including: means for selecting the address numbers of the plurality of information elements to be displayed; means for selecting the time scale for the graphic display; means for selecting the address number of the display trigger information element; means for conducting the command for selection of either a set of repetitive pictures or a non-repetitive picture; and means for inputting the delay time; and display means including: a first area for displaying the address numbers of the information elements to be displayed; a second area for graphically displaying the sequential progress of each of the information elements to be displayed; and a third area for displaying the display conditions.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 184 words
A numerical control system for displaying information elements, comprising: input-output means including: means for inputting address numbers of a plurality of information elements to be displayed; means for inputting a time scale for a graphic display; means for inputting an address number of a display trigger information element; means for inputting a command for selection of either a set of repetitive pictures or a non-repetitive picture; and means for inputting a delay time; processing means including: means for selecting the address numbers of the plurality of information elements to be displayed; means for selecting the time scale for the graphic display; means for selecting the address number of the display trigger information element; means for conducting the command for selection of either a set of repetitive pictures or a non-repetitive picture; and means for inputting the delay time; and display means including: a first area for displaying the address numbers of the information elements to be displayed; a second area for graphically displaying the sequential progress of each of the information elements to be displayed; and a third area for displaying the display conditions.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 225 words
A numerical control system for displaying information elements, comprising: an input-output circuit having a plurality of inputs including: an address input for inputting address numbers of a plurality of information elements to be displayed; a time scale input for inputting a time scale for a graphic display; a trigger address input for inputting an address number of a display trigger information element; a command input for inputting a command for selection of either a set of repetitive pictures or a non-repetitive picture; and a delay time input for inputting a delay time; a processing unit, coupled to said input-output circuit, for receiving the inputs of said input-output circuit and for generating a display signal based on the address numbers of the plurality of information elements to be displayed, the time scale for the graphic display, the address number of the display trigger information element, the command for selection of either a set of repetitive pictures or a non-repetitive picture, and the delay time; a display, coupled to said processing unit, for receiving the display signal and for generating a display, said display including: a first area for displaying the address numbers of the information elements to be displayed; a second area for graphically displaying the sequential progress of each of the information elements to be displayed; and a third area for displaying the display conditions.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 225 words
A numerical control system for displaying information elements, comprising: an input-output circuit having a plurality of inputs including: an address input for inputting address numbers of a plurality of information elements to be displayed; a time scale input for inputting a time scale for a graphic display; a trigger address input for inputting an address number of a display trigger information element; a command input for inputting a command for selection of either a set of repetitive pictures or a non-repetitive picture; and a delay time input for inputting a delay time; a processing unit, coupled to said input-output circuit, for receiving the inputs of said input-output circuit and for generating a display signal based on the address numbers of the plurality of information elements to be displayed, the time scale for the graphic display, the address number of the display trigger information element, the command for selection of either a set of repetitive pictures or a non-repetitive picture, and the delay time; a display, coupled to said processing unit, for receiving the display signal and for generating a display, said display including: a first area for displaying the address numbers of the information elements to be displayed; a second area for graphically displaying the sequential progress of each of the information elements to be displayed; and a third area for displaying the display conditions.
