  • Patent number: 7280877
    Abstract: A facility control monitor method and a facility control monitor apparatus capable of visually tracing a control logic and easily finding a cause of an operation trouble caused by the control logic. The facility control monitor method monitors control performed by a control device included in a facility having a controllable device, the control device for controlling the controllable device, a setting device for transmitting a setting control value to the control device, and a sensor for transmitting an operation state measurement value of the controllable device to the control device. Processes of control performed by the control device are stored. When an arbitrary date and time is specified by a trace controller (35), predetermined control steps of the specified date and time and after are displayed in a flowchart on a control flow display unit.

  • Patent number: 5862044
    Abstract: A switching power supply apparatus wherein a main converter turns "on" and "off" a DC current applied to a primary winding of a main transformer using a main switching element and outputs a main output voltage to the secondary side after rectifying and smoothing current induced in a secondary winding; an error amplifier generates an error voltage between the main output voltage and a first reference voltage; a PWM control circuit outputs an on-off control signal for the main switching element so that the error voltage is minimized; a photo coupler receives the error voltage and provides an output to the PWM control circuit; an over-voltage protection circuit generates an over-voltage protection signal when the main output voltage exceeds a second reference voltage; an on-off circuit outputs either a high level potential or a common level potential depending on whether the power is to be turned "on" or "off"; a shut down latch circuit outputs a shut down signal when the over-voltage protection signal represent
