    Plural security units are coupled to plural control units through a communication line including transmission and response lines. Each control unit detects data collision on the transmission line to avoid the data collision. Re-transmission interval is independently assigned to each control unit. If the command to or from a security unit in charge of this control unit is received, the control unit rewrites the conditional data of the security unit in accordance with the detected command. The control (security) unit further includes a transmission (response) line monitoring portion, so that bi-directional communication is provided in addition of the response (transmission) line monitoring portion. Address data is classified to provide all unit communication, a group communication, and independent communications.

    [0028] Prior to describing an embodiment of the present invention, aspect of the present invention will be described further. This invention provides a combined security system including a plurality of security systems each including a plurality of security units and a control unit, the security systems communicate with each other through a communication line. [0028]
    [0029] Hereinbelow will be described an embodiment of this invention. [0029]
    [0030] FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a security system according to an embodiment of the present invention. [0030]
    [0031] The security system of the embodiment includes a plurality of security units [0031] 2A to 2C and a plurality of control units 1A to 1C coupled to the security units 2A to 2C through a communication line including a transmission line 3A and a response line 3B.
    [0032] The transmission line [0032] 3A is for transmitting a command from one of the control units 1A-1C . The response line 3B is for transmitting a command from one of the security units 2A to 2C.
    [0033] FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the control unit according to the embodiment of the present invention. [0033]
    [0034] In the control unit [0034] 1A, the response line 3B is coupled to a receiving input of a microprocessor 41 through a receiver 11 and a transmission output of the microprocessor 41 is coupled to the transmission line 3A through a driver 12. The driver 12 is controlled in response to a drive signal from a driving control output of the microprocessor 41. The receiver 11 and the driver 12 provide a full duplex channel.
    [0035] The transmission line [0035] 3A is coupled to a monitoring input of the microprocessor 41 through a receiver 13 and a monostable multivibrator 14. The receiver 13 and the monostable multivibrator 14 form a communication collision detection circuit 15. Other control units 1B and 1C have the same structure as the control unit 1A.
    [0036] In FIG. 2, the references in parentheses represent those in the security unit. That is, the security unit [0036] 2A has substantially the same structure as the control unit 1A, wherein the transmission line 3A is coupled to the receiving input and the response line 3B is coupled to the transmission output. More specifically, the transmission line 3A is coupled to a receiving input of a microprocessor 42 of the security unit 2A through a receiver 21 and a transmission output of the microprocessor 42 is coupled to the response line 3B through a driver 22. The driver 22 is controlled in response to a driving signal from a driving control output of the microprocessor 42. The receiver 21 and the driver 22 provide a full duplex channel.
    [0037] The response line [0037] 3B is coupled to a monitoring input of the microprocessor 42 through a receiver 23 and a monostable multivibrator 24. The receiver 23 and the monostable multivibrator 24 form a communication collision detection circuit 25. Other security units 2B and 2C have the same structure as the security unit 2A.
    [0038] FIG. 3 is a detailed block diagram of the control unit [0038] 1A (a security unit 2A) according to this embodiment. The microprocessor 41 includes a response line monitoring portion (program) 16 for monitoring a command on the response line 3B, a data transmission portion 17 for transmitting data and for receiving a line monitoring bit from data collision detection circuit 15, a transmission line monitoring portion 18 for monitoring a command on the transmission line 3A, a condition control portion 19 for controlling condition of the security units to be controlled by this control unit in accordance the command received by the response line monitoring portion 16 and the transmission line monitoring portion 18, a re-transmission interval setting portion 20 for setting a re-transmitting interval of the command transmitted by the data transmission portion 17, an address classifying portion 51, and a command execution portion 52. Other control units 1B and 1C have the same structure.
    [0039] In FIG. 3, the references in parentheses represent those in the security unit [0039] 2A. That is, the security unit 2A has substantially the same structure as the control unit 1A, wherein the transmission line 3A is coupled to the transmission line monitoring portion 26 and the response line 3B is coupled to the data transmission portion 27. More specifically, the microprocessor 42 of the security unit 2A includes the transmission line monitoring portion 26 for monitoring a command on the transmission line 3A, the data transmission portion 27 for transmitting data and for receiving a line monitoring bit from data collision detection circuit 25, a response line monitoring portion 28 for monitoring a command on the response line 3B, a condition control portion 29 for controlling condition of the control units in charge of this security unit 2A in accordance the command received by the transmission line monitoring portion 26 and the response line monitoring portion 28, a re-transmission interval setting portion 30 for setting a re-transmitting interval of the command transmitted by the data transmission portion 27, and an address classifying portion 61, and a command execution portion 62. Other security units 2B and 2C have the same structure.
    [0040] FIG. 4 depicts a flow chart of the control unit [0040] 1A showing transmitting operation to the security unit 2A.
    [0041] In response to an operation command including a transmission command, the control unit [0041] 1A executes command transmission operation. Then, the control unit 1A confirms that no command is transmitted on the transmission line 3A from other control unit 1B and 1C before transmitting a command. That is, the microprocessor 41 detects whether the line monitoring bit from the collision detection circuit 15 in step S1. When the line monitoring bit is ON, the microprocessor 41 waits for a predetermined interval (retransmission interval) in step S2. If the line monitoring bit is OFF (“0”) in step S1, the microprocessor 41 makes the drive signal for the driver 12 “1” in step S3 and transmits a command in step S4. When transmission of the command has finished, the microprocessor 41 makes the drive signal “0”, that is, the output of the driver 12 is made high impedance in step S6 and the microprocessor 41 ends the processing.
    [0042] FIGS. 5A to [0042] 5C are time charts in the control unit 1A. The control unit 1A outputs the drive signal of “1” at timing t1 to the driver 12 if the line monitoring bit is OFF (“0”)X. When the control unit 1A transmits a command at timing t2. The command includes a command starting byte, a destination address, a source address, and command data, a command end byte. During this the line monitoring bit is ON.
    [0043] When the transmission of the command has finished at timing t[0043] 3, the drive signal is made “0”. On the other hand, the line monitoring bit is turned off at timing t4 which is after 10 ms from the timing t3. Thus, the control unit 1A occupies the transmission line 3A from the timing t1 to the timing t4.
    [0044] FIGS. 6A to [0044] 6C are timing charts of transmission of commands when both control units 1A and 1B request transmission of commands at substantially the same time.
    [0045] On the transmission line [0045] 3A, there is a command up to timing t3 as shown in FIG. 6A. Then, if the control unit 1B requests at timing t1 as shown in FIG. 6C and the control unit 1A requests transmission at timing t2, these control units 1A and 1B wait for the next transmission request timings, respectively.
    [0046] At timing t[0046] 4, the line monitoring bits of the control units 1A and 1B are made “0”. The control unit 1A transmits a transmission request again at timing t5 which is later by a retransmission interval α1 after the timing t2 and the control unit 1B transmits a transmission request again at timing t6 which is later by a retransmission interval α2 after the timing t1, wherein α1<α2.
    [0047] When the control unit [0047] 1A transmits the transmission request at the timing t5, the control unit 1A can transmit the command because the transmission line 3A is released, that is, the line monitoring bit (1A) is “0” and there is no command from other control units.
    [0048] When the control unit [0048] 1B transmits the transmission request at the timing t6, the control unit 1B cannot transmit the command because the transmission line 3A is not released, that is the line monitoring bit (1B) is “1” and there is the command from the control unit 1A.
    [0049] Then, the control unit [0049] 1B waits again. At timing t7, transmission of the command from the control unit 1A has finished. Thus, the line monitoring bit (1B) is made “0” at timing t8 which is later the timing t7 by 10 ms, so that the transmission line 3A is released.
    [0050] After the retransmission interval (α2 assigned to the control unit [0050] 1B from the timing t6, the control unit 1B transmits the transmission request at timing t9. Because the line monitoring bit (1B) is “0” at this timing, the control unit 1B can transmit the command on the transmission lien 3A.
    [0051] As mentioned above, repetition of data collision is prevented. That is, the control unit loosing the first transmission timing transmits after a predetermined retransmission interval which is independently assigned to the control unit. This prevents data collision. The retransmission interval is set by the retransmission interval setting portion [0051] 20 in response to the operation command indicative of the setting the retransmission interval. The security units also avoid the data collision in the same manner.
    [0052] FIG. 7 is a table of retransmission interval set by the retransmission interval setting portion [0052] 20.
    [0053] The retransmission interval setting portion [0053] 20 sets in accordance with the least significant digit of the address data of the control unit for example. When the least significant digit of the address data is “1”, the retransmission interval is set to 0 ms or no vertical synchronizing interval. If the least significant digit of the address data is “2”, the retransmission interval is set to 5 ms or one vertical synchronizing interval. If the retransmission timing is determined by an internal timer of the control unit 1A, the retransmission timing is determined from either of 0 to 45 ms at an interval of 5 ms. If the retransmission timing is determined by vertical synchronizing interval generated or detected in the control unit 1A, the retransmission timing is determined from either of zero to nine vertical synchronizing intervals.
    [0054] As mentioned above, the security unit [0054] 2A may be controlled by the other control unit. When the security unit 2A is controlled by the other control unit. The control unit in charge of the security unit 2A should know the changed condition of the security unit 2A. Then, the control units 1A to 1C monitor the command on the transmission line 3A transmitted by the other control unit with the transmission line monitoring portion 18. If the command is transmitted from another control unit to the security unit in charge of the control unit, the control unit rewrites the data in the conditional control portion 19 to equalize the conditional data in the condition control portion 19 to the condition of the security unit.
    [0055] FIG. 8 depicts a flow chart of the line monitoring operation in the control unit [0055] 1A. The transmission line monitoring portion 18 receives the command from another control unit and judges whether the command is directed to the security unit in charge of this control unit 1A in step S11. This is done by checking the destination address in the command. If the command is not directed to this control unit, processing ends. If the command is directed to any of the security units in charge of this control unit, the control unit rewrites the conditional data in the condition control portion 19 in step S12 and ends the processing.
    [0056] Each of the control units [0056] 1A to 1C performs bi-directional communication with another control unit using the data transmission portion 17, the transmission line monitoring portion 18 for receiving the data under control of a bi-directional communication portion 71. For example, the bi-directional communication is used for copying the setting data or communication record data from one control unit to another control unit. Moreover, one control unit can control another control unit.
    [0057] Moreover, each of the security units [0057] 2A to 2C performs bi-directional communication with another security unit using the data transmission portion 27, the transmission line monitoring portion 28 for receiving the data under control of a bi-directional communication portion 81. For example, the bi-directional communication is used for copying the setting data or communication record data from one control unit to another control unit. Moreover, one security unit can control another security unit. Further, if one security unit loose setting data due to a power fail for example, the security unit can copy the setting data from another security data in response to the power fail and power on for example.
    [0058] Moreover, each of the control units [0058] 1A to 1C monitors the command transmitted from the security unit in charge of this control unit to other control units using the response line monitoring portion 16. If the command is transmitted from the security unit in charge of this control unit, the control unit rewrites the conditional data of the security unit in the condition control portion 19 to equalize the conditional data in the condition control portion 19 to the condition of the security unit.
    [0059] FIG. 9 depicts a flow chart showing this operation. The control unit [0059] 1A receives a command transmitted from one of the security units 2A to 2C with the response line monitoring portion 16. The control unit 1A judges whether the command is directed to this control unit 1A in step S21 by checking the source address in the command. If the command is not directed to this control unit 1A, the control unit 1A judges whether the command is transmitted from one of the security units 2A to 2C in charge of this control unit 1A in step S22. If the command is not from one of the security units 2A to 2C in charge of this control unit 1A in step S22, processing ends.
    [0060] If the command is directed to this control unit [0060] 1A in step S21 in step S21 or if the command is from one of the security units 2A to 2C in charge of this control unit in step S22, the control unit 1A rewrites the conditional data in the condition control portion 19 in step S23 and processing ends.
    [0061] Moreover, each of the control units [0061] 1A to 1C can control all security units 2A to 2C at the same time with a special address in the transmitted command and each of the security units 2A to 2C can control all control units 1A to 1C with another special address in the transmitted command.
    [0062] More specifically, the microprocessor [0062] 42 in each security unit judges whether the address in the received command on the transmission line 3A corresponds to the special address, if the address corresponds to the special address, the microprocessor 42 in the security unit responds the command though the address disagrees with the it own address.
    [0063] Similarly, the microprocessor [0063] 41 in each control unit judges whether the address in the received command on the response line corresponds to another special address. If the address corresponds to the special address, the microprocessor 41 in the control unit responds the command though the address disagrees with its own address using the command execution portions 52.
    [0064] Further, the control units [0064] 1A to 1C and the security units 2A to 2C are grouped and group addresses are assigned to the groups.
    [0065] More specifically, the microprocessor [0065] 42 in each security unit judges whether the address in the received command on the transmission line corresponds to the group address to which this security unit belongs, if the address corresponds to the assigned address, the microprocessor 42 in the security unit responds the command though the address disagrees with the it own address.
    [0066] Similarly, the microprocessor [0066] 41 in each control unit judges whether the address in the received command on the response line 3B corresponds to the group address. If the address corresponds to the group address, the microprocessor 41 in the control unit responds the command though the address disagrees with it own address using the command execution portion 52.
    [0067] These special addresses are detected by classifying the address data by the address classifying portion [0067] 51. For example, the most significant digit of the address data is 0, the address data is directed to one of the control units 1A to 1C and the security units 2A to 2C. If the most significant digit of the address data is 1, the address data is directed to all security units 2A to 2C. If the most significant digit of the address data is 2, the address data is directed to all control units 1A to 1C.
    [0068] If the most significant digit of the address data is 3, the address data is directed to one group of the security units [0068] 2A to 2C. Then, each of the security units 2A to 2C checks the lower digits in the address data and if the lower digits in the address data corresponds to the group address to which the security unit belongs, the security unit responds the command.
    [0069] If the most significant digit of the address data is 4, the address data is directed to one group of the control units [0069] 1A to 1C. Then, each of the control units 1A to 1C checks the lower digits in the address data and if the lower digits in the address data corresponds to the group address to which the control unit belongs, the control unit responds the command.
    [0070] Accordingly, a group of the security units can be controlled to turn on or to release the alarm setting. [0070]
    [0071] If the most significant digit of the address data is “0”, the command is directed to a single unit, so that a single security unit can be independently controlled and one signal control unit can be independently controlled. Thus, only one specific security unit can be controlled to turn on or release the alarm setting. [0071]
    [0072] FIG. 10 shows the address data classifying operation of the control units [0072] 1A to 1C and the security units 2A to 2C.
    [0073] The microprocessor [0073] 42 (41) of the security unit (control unit) classifies the address data in step S31. If the address data is classified to a group address in step S32, processing proceeds to step S35. If the address data is classified to the all unit address (multiple-address) in step S33, processing proceeds to step S35. If the address data is classified to an independent address in step S34, processing proceeds to step S35.
    [0074] In step S[0074] 35, the microprocessor 42(41) of the security unit (control unit) executes the control data in the command with the command execution portion 52 (62).
    [0075] This invention is applicable to a security system including a single security unit and a plurality of control units, a security system including a plurality of the security units and a single control unit, and a security system including a single security unit and a single control unit. Moreover, the address data may include the most significant digit value directed to another system other than this security system. In that case, no control units and no security unit in this security system does not respond the command including that value in the most significant bit in the address data. Thus, the security unit or the control unit in this security system can control other units in the other system. [0075]
