Control setup device and control setup method

Abstract

According to a certain embodiment, a control setup deice ( 200 ) includes an execution parameter information storage area ( 206 d ) for storing execution parameter information, an SGF table storage area ( 206 b ) for storing SGF tables, a finish spray code table storage area ( 206 c ) for storing finish spray code tables, a composition data storage area ( 206 e ) for storing composition data tables representing composition data of steel type families, and a control setup determiner ( 201 b ) operable when a detemination of a set of control set-points in steel type families is requested, to determine a set of control set-points based on a composition data table, a composition data and a combination of a target plate thickness and a target plate width contained in a setup request signal, first control information, and execution parameter information, and when a determination of a set of control set-points in steel types is requested, to determine a set of control set-points based on second control information, a steel type and a combination of a target plate thickness and a target plate width contained in the setup request signal, and execution parameter information.

1 . A control setup device comprising:
 an execution parameter information storage area configured to store therein sets of control set-points for control of control object apparatuses and execution parameter numbers uniquely identifying the sets of control set-points, respectively associated with each other, as execution parameter information;   a first control information storage area configured to store therein one of the execution parameter numbers corresponding to a combination of a target plate thickness and a target plate width for each of steel type families including one or more of steel types having similar characteristics, as first control information;   a second control information storage area configured to store therein one of the execution parameter numbers corresponding to a combination of a target plate thickness and a target plate width for each of the steel types, as second control information;   a composition information storage area configured to store therein for a respective one of the steel type families composition information representing components of the steel type family, as composition information tables; and   a control setup determiner configured to operate when supplied with a setup request signal requesting a determination of a set of control set-points in the steel type families from a superior calculator connected to the control setup device, to extract from the composition information table one of the steel type families corresponding to composition information contained in the setup request signal, extract from the first control information one of the execution parameter numbers corresponding to the extracted steel type family and to a combination of a target plate thickness and a target plate width contained in the setup request signal, and determine from the execution parameter information a set of control set-points corresponding to the extracted execution parameter number, and operate when supplied with a setup request signal requesting a determination of a set of control set-points in the steel types from the superior calculator, to extract from the second control information one of the execution parameter numbers corresponding to one of the steel types and to a combination of a target plate thickness and a target plate width contained in the setup request signal, and determine from the execution parameter information a set of control set-points corresponding to the extracted execution parameter number.   
     
     
         2 . A control setup method comprising:
 an execution parameter information storage step of storing in memory means sets of control set-points for control of control object apparatuses and execution parameter numbers uniquely identifying the sets of control set-points, respectively associated with each other, as execution parameter information;   a first control information storage step of storing in memory means one of the execution parameter numbers corresponding to a combination of a target plate thickness and a target plate width for each of steel type families including one or more of steel types having similar characteristics, as first control information;   a second control information storage step of storing in memory means one of the execution parameter numbers corresponding to a combination of a target plate thickness and a target plate width for each of the steel types, as second control information;   a composition information storage step of storing in memory means for a respective one of the steel type families composition information representing components of the steel type family, as composition information tables; and   a control setup determination step of operating when supplied with a setup request signal requesting a determination of a set of control set-points in the steel type families from a superior calculator connected to a control setup device, to extract from the composition information table one of the steel type families corresponding to composition information contained in the setup request signal, extract from the first control information one of the execution parameter numbers corresponding to the extracted steel type family and to a combination of a target plate thickness and a target plate width contained in the setup request signal, and determine from the execution parameter information a set of control set-points corresponding to the extracted execution parameter number, and operating when supplied with a setup request signal requesting a determination of a set of control set-points in the steel types from the superior calculator, to extract from the second control information one of the execution parameter numbers corresponding to one of the steel types and to a combination of a target plate thickness and a target plate width contained in the setup request signal, and determine from the execution parameter information a set of control set-points corresponding to the extracted execution parameter number.
