Abstract

The present invention is directed to an analysis system intended to be able to perform a unit setting of values over multi-pieces of analysis-associated data easily and systematically every analysis device, and the analysis system is provided with an analysis device and an information processing device, wherein the information processing device includes: a unit series data storage part adapted to store multi-pieces of unit series data composed by specifying units to be respectively used for values of the multi-pieces of analysis-associated data given and received between the analysis device and the information processing device; a selection input receiving part adapted to receive a selection input of any of the multi-pieces of the unit series data stored in the unit series data storage part; and a data output part adapted to output each of the values of the analysis-associated data in the unit specified to the selected unit series data.

Claims

1. An analysis system provided with at least one analysis device adapted to analyze intake gas or exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine and an information processing device that is communicatively connected to the analysis device, wherein

the information processing device comprises:

a unit series data storage part adapted to store multi-pieces of unit series data composed by specifying units to be respectively used for values of multi-pieces of analysis-associated data given and received between the analysis device and the information processing device;

a selection input receiving part adapted to receive a selection input of any of the multi-pieces of the unit series data stored in the unit series data storage part; and

a data output part adapted to output each of the values of the analysis-associated data in the unit specified to the selected unit series data.

2. The analysis system according to claim 1, wherein a plurality of the analysis devices are provided and the unit series data storage part stores multi-pieces of the unit series data with tie association in each of the analysis devices.

3. The analysis system according to claim 1, wherein the information processing device is further provided with a unit series data editing part for editing contents of the unit series data storage part.

4. The analysis system according to claim 1, wherein the unit series data includes:

an analysis-associated data name for identifying each of the analysis-associated data;

a physical phenomenon type name indicating a physical phenomenon type such as a weight, length, volume and temperature associated with the analysis-associated data name;

a unit name indicating the unit; and

a number of output digits.

5. The analysis system according to claim 4, wherein the information processing device further comprises an available unit storage part storing one or more unit names each of which is available for each of the physical phenomenon type names, and upon edition of the unit series data by the unit series data editing part, a unit name available for the physical phenomenon type set in the analysis-associated data is selected from among the unit names stored in the available unit storage part.

6. The analysis system according to claim 5, wherein the information processing device further comprises a unit editing part for editing the available unit storage part.

7. The analysis system according to claim 1, wherein the information processing device further comprises an analysis device management part recognizing a plurality of analysis devices as one analysis device together in management.

8. An information processing device for an analysis system communicatively connected to an analysis device adapted to analyze intake gas or exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine, the information processing device comprising:

a unit series data storage part adapted to store multi-pieces of unit series data composed by specifying units to be respectively used for values of multi-pieces of analysis-associated data given and received between the analysis device and the information processing device;

a selection input receiving part adapted to receive a selection input of any of the multi-pieces of the unit series data stored in the unit series data storage part; and

a data output part adapted to output each of the values of the analysis-associated data in the unit specified to the selected unit series data.

9. A program implemented in an information processing device for an analysis system communicatively connected to an analysis device adapted to analyze intake gas or exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine, the program allowing the information processing device to exerting functions of:

a unit series data storage part adapted to store multi-pieces of unit series data composed by specifying units to be respectively used for values of multi-pieces of analysis-associated data given and received between the analysis device and the information processing device;

a selection input receiving part adapted to receive a selection input of any of the multi-pieces of the unit series data stored in the unit series data storage part; and
