Abstract
Abstract In a diagnostic system, output patterns stored in first and second memories are compared by a comparing device so as to get remainders of items known by comparing the output patterns. The remainders of the items are shown as a graph of an interrelationship between the items by an output device. An operator can know mutual affect of the items and tendency of a machine by watching the graph. Therefore, trouble relating to the items, which interact mutually, can be prevented, and a suitable counteraction can be quickly taken even after trouble occurs, so that the maintenance efficiency can be greatly increased.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
97 words
A diagnostic system comprising: a first memory storing an output pattern of an ideal output pulse with respect to a reference pulse; A second memory storing an output pattern of a real output pulse with respect to the reference pulse; compare means for comparing the output patterns stored in said first memory and said second memory so as to get a difference between the output patterns by comparison between the two output patterns; and control means for showing the difference between the output patterns as a graph of an interrelationship between the output patterns on output means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
97 words
A diagnostic system comprising: a first memory storing an output pattern of an ideal output pulse with respect to a reference pulse; A second memory storing an output pattern of a real output pulse with respect to the reference pulse; compare means for comparing the output patterns stored in said first memory and said second memory so as to get a difference between the output patterns by comparison between the two output patterns; and control means for showing the difference between the output patterns as a graph of an interrelationship between the output patterns on output means.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
108 words
The diagnostic system according to claim 1, wherein the difference between the output patterns comprises two items, a first item is a different between a first time from a rising edge of the ideal output pulse, and a second time from the rising edge of the reference pulse to a rising edge of the real output pulse, and a second item is a difference between pulse width of the ideal output pulse and pulse width of the real output pulse, and the graph shown by the control means on said output means is a two dimensional graph showing an interrelationship between the first item and the second item.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
114 words
The diagnostic system according to claim 1, wherein the difference between the output patterns comprises two items, a first item is a difference between a first time from a rising edge of the reference pulse to a rising edge of the ideal output pulse and a second time from the rising edge of the reference pulse to a rising edge of the real output pulse, and a second item is a difference between a third time from the rising edge of the reference pulse to a trailing edge of the ideal output pulse and a fourth time from the rising edge of the reference pulse to a trailing edge of the real output pulse.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
26 words
The diagnostic system according to claim 1, wherein said control means is capable of showing a specific area in the graph shown by said output means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
34 words
The diagnostic system according to claim 1, wherein the graph of the interrelationship between the output patterns is shown by plotting dots, and said control means defines color of dots in every unit time.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
18 words
The diagnostic system according to claim 5, wherein said control means blinks display of a latest dot plotted.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
38 words
The diagnositc system according to claim 1, wherein the graph of the interrelationship between output patterns is shown by plotting dots, and said control means defines color of dots for a prescribed number of the real output pulse.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
18 words
The diagnostic system according to claim 1, wherein said control means blinks display of a latest dot plotted.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
30 words
The diagnostic system according to claim 1, further comprising connect means for connecting said control means to an outside system which receives the output pattern of the real output pulse.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
24 words
The diagnostic system according to claim 9, wherein said connect means connects said control means to said outside system via a data communication line.
