Verfahren zum Programmieren einer mindestens einen Mikroprozessor enthaltenden Steuereinrichtung für den automatischen Arbeitsablauf eines HaushaltgerätesMethod for programming a control device containing at least one microprocessor for the automatic workflow of a household appliance
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Programmieren einer mindestens einen Mikro- o Prozessor enthaltenden Steuereinrichtung für den automatischen Arbeitsablauf einesThe invention relates to a method for programming a control device containing at least one microprocessor for the automatic workflow of a
Haushaltgerätes, das zum Einstellen und Anzeigen von Parametern und aus mehreren Schritten bestehenden Arbeitsabläufen mit mehreren Bedien- und Anzeigeelementen versehen ist.Household appliance that is provided with several operating and display elements for setting and displaying parameters and work processes consisting of several steps.
Moderne Haushaltgeräte, z.B. Waschmaschinen, Geschirrspülmaschinen, Wäschetrock- 5 ner, werden üblicherweise mit einer einen Mikroprozessor enthaltenden Steuereinrichtung ausgerüstet. Durch eine Programmierung des Mikroprozessors, die entweder im Herstellerwerk oder durch den Kundendienst erfolgt, können verschiedene Prozeßparameter eines automatischen Arbeitsablaufes, z.B. Drehzahl, Temperatur, Wassermenge, oder zeit- oder zustandsabhängige Schritte dieses Arbeitsablaufes eingestellt werden, 0 ohne daß an dem Haushaltsgerät selbst Änderungen vorgenommen werden müssen.Modern household appliances, e.g. Washing machines, dishwashers, tumble dryers are usually equipped with a control device containing a microprocessor. By programming the microprocessor, either in the manufacturer's plant or by customer service, various process parameters of an automatic workflow, e.g. Speed, temperature, amount of water, or time- or condition-dependent steps of this workflow can be set without changes to the household appliance itself.
Bisher erfolgt die Einstellung dieser unterschiedlichen Parameter oder Arbeitsschritte entweder durch Setzen oder Entfernen von elektrisch leitenden Brücken in der Steuereinrichtung selbst, oder es sind elektronische bzw. optoelektronische Schnittstellen vorgesehen, über die mittels eines gesonderten Programmiergerätes der Mikroprozessor 5 der Steuereinrichtung programmiert werden kann.So far, these different parameters or work steps have been set either by setting or removing electrically conductive bridges in the control device itself, or electronic or optoelectronic interfaces are provided, via which the microprocessor 5 of the control device can be programmed by means of a separate programming device.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren der eingangs beschriebenen Art so weiterzubilden, daß eine Programmierung des in der Steuereinrichtung vorgesehenen Mikroprozessors ohne zusätzliche technische Hilfsmittel möglich ist.The invention has for its object to develop a method of the type described above so that programming of the microprocessor provided in the control device is possible without additional technical aids.
Die Lösung der gestellten Aufgabe gelingt nach der Erfindung dadurch, daß die Bedien- o elemente zum Einschalten eines Programmierzugangs zum Mikroprozessor in einer vorgegebenen Betätigungsabfolge betätigt werden und der Mikroprozessor danach durch Betätigen eines oder mehrerer der Bedienelemente in einer je Parameter oder Arbeitsschritt vorgegebenen Weise programmiert wird.The object is achieved according to the invention in that the control elements for activating a programming access to the microprocessor are actuated in a predetermined actuation sequence and the microprocessor is then programmed by actuating one or more of the control elements in a manner predetermined for each parameter or work step .
Zur Schaltung des Programmierzuganges wird eine Betätigungsabfolge der Bedienele- 5 mente vorgegeben, die bei der Einstellung der jeweils gewünschten Arbeitsabläufe des Haushaltgerätes nicht vorkommt. Auf diese Weise wird verhindert, daß vom Benutzer des Haushaltsgerätes versehentlich eine Änderung der Prozeßparameter vorgenommen werden kann.To switch the programming access, an actuation sequence of the operating elements is specified, which is used when setting the desired work processes of the Household appliance does not occur. This prevents the user of the household appliance from accidentally changing the process parameters.
Wird im Herstellerwerk oder vom Kundendienst durch die vorgegebene Betätigungs- = abfolge der Bedienelemente der Programmierzugang geschaltet, dann kann durch vorgegebenes weiteres Betätigen eines oder mehrerer Bedienelemente der Mikroprozessor programmiert werden. Dabei kann über die am Haushaltgerät vorgesehenen Anzeigeelemente eine entsprechende Rückmeldung erfolgen, so daß die eingegebenen Parameter oder Arbeitsschritte kontrolliert werden können. Somit sind für die Programmie- rung der Steuereinrichtung keine gesonderten technischen Hilfsmittel erforderlich.If the programming access is switched in the manufacturer's plant or by customer service through the specified actuation sequence of the operating elements, the microprocessor can be programmed by further operating one or more operating elements. Appropriate feedback can be given via the display elements provided on the household appliance, so that the parameters or work steps entered can be checked. No separate technical aids are therefore required for programming the control device.
Auf die beschriebene Weise können Haushaltgeräte je nach Ausstattung mit unterschiedlichen Baugruppen, die im Haushaltgerät nur jeweils begrenzte Möglichkeiten von Betriebsabläufen zulassen, mit ein und derselben Steuereinrichtung zu unterschiedlichen Typen desselben Produktbereiches codiert werden. Beispielsweise können Wasch- maschinen einer bestimmten Baureihe, die zwar mit denselben Steuereinrichtungen nicht aber ansonsten alle mit gleichartigen Baugruppen ausgestattet sind, von der Bedienblende aus zu unterschiedlichen Typenvarianten codiert werden. Ein Beispiel für einen codierbaren Parameter ist die Enddrehzahl des Schleuderantriebs einer solchen Waschmaschine. Ein Beispiel für einen Arbeitsschritt ist der Zulauf von Frischwasser durch Öffnen eines Magnetventils. In the manner described, depending on the equipment with different assemblies, which only allow limited possibilities of operating processes in the household appliance, household appliances can be coded with one and the same control device for different types of the same product area. For example, washing machines of a certain series, which are not equipped with the same control devices but are otherwise all equipped with the same assemblies, can be coded from the control panel to different types. An example of a codable parameter is the final speed of the spin drive of such a washing machine. An example of a work step is the supply of fresh water by opening a solenoid valve.
