The processing unit 18 acquires the measurement condition data D0 in which the measurement conditions of the measurement process for the measurement target specified by the measurement target specifying process are recorded, and the measurement unit 11 ( The measurement unit 11a or the measurement unit 11b) is controlled to measure the physical quantity to be measured (execution of measurement processing).

  Furthermore, the processing unit 18 is also referred to as measurement result data D1a or measurement result data D1b (hereinafter referred to as “measurement result data D1” when not distinguished) output from the measurement unit 11 (measurement unit 11a or measurement unit 11b) in the measurement process. Is stored in the storage unit 19, and the measurement result based on the measurement result data D1 is displayed on the display unit 17. The processing unit 18 reads out the measurement result data D1 of the measurement process performed in the past with respect to the measurement target specified by the measurement target specifying process from the storage unit 19, and the measurement result based on the read measurement result data D1 is It is displayed on the display unit 17 so that it can be compared with the current measurement result (execution of measurement result display processing).

  In this case, in the measurement apparatus 1 of this example, the measurement condition data D0 generated by the measurement condition setting operation executed prior to the measurement process is transmitted to the data server 2 via the communication unit 15 to be transmitted to the data server 2. It can be stored in the memory. In the measurement apparatus 1 of this example, when the measurement condition data D0 for the measurement target specified by the measurement target specifying process is not stored in the storage unit 19 in the measurement process, the processing unit 18 causes the communication unit 15 to It is configured to be able to control and transmit desired measurement condition data D0 from the data server 2 (an example of “measurement condition data acquisition process”).

  Furthermore, in the measurement apparatus 1 of this example, the measurement result data D1 stored in the storage unit 19 during the measurement process can be transmitted to the data server 2 via the communication unit 15 and stored in the data server 2. It is configured as follows. In the measurement apparatus 1 of the present example, when the measurement result display process, when the past measurement result data D1 for the measurement target specified by the measurement target specifying process is not stored in the storage unit 19, the processing unit 18 The communication unit 15 is controlled so that desired measurement result data D1 can be transmitted and acquired from the data server 2 (an example of “measurement result data acquisition process”).

  The storage unit 19 performs measurement condition data D0, measurement result data D1a and D1b, positioning data D2, identification code data D3, imaging data D4, measurement target position specifying data Da, and identification code specifying data in accordance with the control of the processing unit 18. Various data such as Db and measurement target specifying image data Dc are stored. In this case, the storage unit 19 is not limited to the one configured with the built-in storage element, but is provided with a media mounting unit (not shown) on which various removable media (such as a memory card) can be mounted. A configuration in which the mounted removable medium is used as the storage unit 19 can also be adopted.

  Next, a method for measuring temperature and voltage values by the measurement system 100 will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  As an example, when the measurement process of the power consumption value of the air conditioner A installed at the outdoor position A is executed for the first time, the power consumption value of the air conditioner A is calculated by operating the operation unit 16 of the measurement device 1. Set the measurement conditions for measurement. At this time, the processing unit 18 records the set measurement condition in association with the air conditioner A to generate the measurement condition data D0, and causes the storage unit 19 to store the generated measurement condition data D0. In addition, regarding the generation operation of the measurement condition data D0, instead of the method of generating the measurement conditions individually by setting the measurement conditions prior to the first measurement process for any one of the measurement objects, the measurement process for each measurement object is performed. Prior to the execution, it is also possible to adopt a method in which the measurement conditions for each measurement process are collectively set and a plurality of measurement condition data D0 are generated in advance.

  Next, “measurement target specifying data” used to specify that the measurement target is the air conditioner A in the second and subsequent power consumption measurement processing using the air conditioner A as a measurement target is generated. In this case, since the air conditioner A is installed at the outdoor position A in this example, the GPS signal Sg from the GPS satellite 3 can be suitably received at the installation position of the air conditioner A. . Therefore, as an example, by generating the measurement target position specifying data Da that associates the current position of the air conditioner A, which is measured based on the GPS signal Sg from the GPS satellite 3, with the air conditioner A, this When the measurement process is to be executed at the current position, it is possible to specify that the measurement target of the measurement process executed at the current position is the air conditioner A. Specifically, the processing unit 18 controls the positioning unit 12 to measure the current position based on the GPS signal Sg from the GPS satellite 3, and also determines the value of the positioning data D2 output from the positioning unit 12 (measuring device). 1 is associated with the air conditioner A to generate the measurement target position specifying data Da, and the generated measurement target position specifying data Da is stored in the storage unit 19.

  Subsequently, in a state where the measurement unit 11a is connected to the air conditioner A, the measurement start switch of the operation unit 16 is operated. At this time, the processing unit 18 first executes a measurement target specifying process. Specifically, as an example, the processing unit 18 first determines whether or not the positioning process by the positioning unit 12 can be executed (whether or not the positioning unit 12 can receive the GPS signal Sg). When it is feasible, a process A for determining whether there is a measurement target associated with the current position specified based on the positioning data D2 from the positioning unit 12 is executed. At this time, when it is determined in this process A that there is a measurement target associated with the current position, the measurement condition data D0 associated with the measurement target is determined from the storage unit 19 as the measurement target is specified. Read (an example of “acquisition of measurement condition data”).

  Further, when the positioning process by the positioning unit 12 cannot be performed, or when it is determined that there is no measurement target associated with the current position in the process A, the processing unit 18 identifies from the IC tag reader 13. It is determined whether or not the code data D3 is output. When the code data D3 is output, a process B is performed to determine whether or not there is a measurement target associated with the identification code recorded in the identification code data D3. To do. At this time, when it is determined in this process B that the measurement target associated with the identification code exists, the measurement condition data D0 associated with the measurement target is determined from the storage unit 19 as the measurement target is specified. Read (another example of “acquisition of measurement condition data”).

  Furthermore, when the identification code data D3 is not output from the IC tag reader 13 or when it is determined that there is no measurement target associated with the identification code in the process B, the processing unit 18 performs the camera 14 It is determined whether or not the imaging data D4 has been output from, and when it is output, an image analysis process for the imaging data D4 is executed, and there is a measurement target associated with the image of the imaging data D4. A process C is performed to determine whether or not. At this time, if it is determined in this process C that there is a measurement target associated with the image of the imaging data D4, the measurement condition data D0 associated with the measurement target is stored, assuming that the measurement target has been specified. Reading from the unit 19 (another example of “acquisition of measurement condition data”).

  In addition, when the imaging data D4 is not output from the camera 14, or when it is determined that there is no measurement target associated with the image of the imaging data D4 in the process C, the processing unit 18 is an example. , “The current position cannot be measured. Either read the IC tag, read the barcode label, or shoot the measurement object, or set the measurement conditions manually.” The process D for displaying the message on the display unit 17 is executed, and thereafter, while maintaining the state in which the message is displayed on the display unit 17, the process returns to the process A and the positioning of the current position is executed again.

  In this case, in this example, the processing unit 18 executes the above-described processing A in this example that is located at the outdoor position A and in which the current position can be measured by the positioning unit 12. Specifically, the processing unit 18 controls the positioning unit 12 to measure the current position based on the GPS signal Sg from the GPS satellite 3 to acquire the positioning data D2, and specifies the measurement target position from the storage unit 19. Read out data Da. Next, the processing unit 18 specifies that the measurement target located at the current position is the air conditioner A based on the acquired positioning data D2 and measurement target position specifying data Da. Note that an example in which the measurement target is specified by the process B or the process C will be described later.

  In this case, although different from this example, for example, there is a measurement target Ax other than the air conditioner A at the installation position (position A) of the air conditioner A, and the position of the measurement target Ax is measured in association with the position A. When it is recorded in the target position specifying data Da, the processing unit 18 exemplifies, for example, “There are a plurality of measurement targets associated with this location. Which measurement target is to be measured? As an example, the name of the measurement target associated with the position A is displayed on the display unit 17 and the user is allowed to select the measurement target.

  In addition, when the measurement target to be measured is specified as the air conditioner A by specifying the measurement target by the process A or by the user selecting the measurement target, the processing unit 18 associates with the air conditioner A. The measured measurement data D0 is read from the storage unit 19. In this case, although different from the present example, when there are a plurality of measurement condition data D0 of the measurement conditions associated with the air conditioner A specified by the measurement target specifying process, the processing unit 18 selects “air conditioner A There are multiple measurement conditions set for ". Which measurement condition should be used for the measurement process?" And the display unit 17 displays the file name, comment, and generation date of each measurement condition data D0. To display a list. Further, when any measurement condition is selected by the user, the processing unit 18 reads out the measurement condition data D0 of the selected measurement condition from the storage unit 19.

  Further, although different from this example, when the measurement condition data D0 associated with the air conditioner A is not stored in the storage unit 19, the processing unit 18 controls the communication unit 15 to connect to the data server 2. When the measurement condition data D0 associated with the air conditioner A is stored in the data server 2, the measurement condition data D0 is transmitted and acquired. Next, the processing unit 18 controls the measurement unit 11a according to the measurement conditions of the measurement condition data D0 read from the storage unit 19 (or acquired from the data server 2), and causes the power value to be measured, and from the measurement unit 11a. The output measurement result data D1a is stored in the storage unit 19 in association with the air conditioner A. Thereby, the first measurement process for measuring the air conditioner A is completed.

  Further, the processing unit 18 controls the display unit 17 to display a measurement result based on the measurement result data D1a (as an example, a numerical value indicating a peak value among the power consumption values of the air conditioner A during the measurement process). Further, the processing unit 18 stores the past measurement result data D1a associated with the air conditioner A specified as the measurement target by the above-described measurement target specifying process (process A in this example) as the storage unit 19 or the data server 2. It is determined whether or not it is stored. At this time, in this example in which the first measurement process for the air conditioner A is executed, the processing unit 18 determines that the past measurement result data D1a associated with the air conditioner A does not exist, and the measurement unit 11a. Only the measurement result based on the measurement result data D1a output from is displayed.

  On the other hand, as an example, when performing the second measurement process using the air conditioner A as a measurement object after various measurement processes for other measurement objects described later, the measurement condition setting operation is not performed. The measurement process can be started immediately. Specifically, when the measurement start switch of the operation unit 16 is operated in a state where the measurement unit 11a is connected to the air conditioner A (a state in which the measurement device 1 exists at the position A), the processing unit 18 Then, the above-described measurement target specifying process is executed. At this time, similarly to the first measurement process for the air conditioner A described above, the process A is executed as the measurement target specifying process, and the measurement target located at the current position is specified as the air conditioner A. Is done. Next, the processing unit 18 acquires measurement condition data D0 associated with the specified air conditioner A from the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2).

  Subsequently, the processing unit 18 causes the power value to be measured by controlling the measurement unit 11a according to the measurement conditions of the acquired measurement condition data D0. Thereby, without performing the operation | work which selects the measurement condition data D0, the 2nd measurement process about the air conditioner A is performed, and the measurement result data D1a are linked | related with the air conditioner A, and are memorize | stored in the memory | storage part 19. FIG. In addition, the processing unit 18 controls the display unit 17 to display a measurement result based on the measurement result data D1a (in this example, the power consumption value of the air conditioner A). Further, the processing unit 18 determines whether or not the past measurement result data D1a associated with the air conditioner A is stored in the storage unit 19 or the data server 2.

  At this time, in this example in which the first measurement process for the air conditioner A has already been completed, the past measurement result data D1a associated with the air conditioner A is stored in the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2). It is in a state. Therefore, the processing unit 18 acquires the measurement result data D1a from the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2), and the measurement result based on the acquired measurement result data D1a (in this example, the first measurement process related to the air conditioner A). The power value measured sometimes) is displayed on the display unit 17 along with the current measurement result (an example of measurement result display processing). At this time, when the current measurement result and the past measurement result are different from each other beyond the specified value, the processing unit 18 causes the current measurement result to blink and display as an example (an example of “highlight display”). Thus, the current measurement result and the past measurement result are displayed on the display unit 17 without performing the operation of selecting the measurement result data D1a in which the past measurement result to be compared with the current measurement result is recorded. Therefore, it is possible to accurately and easily determine whether any abnormality has occurred in the measurement target (air conditioner A).

  Although different from the above example, for example, when the measurement results are displayed during the third and subsequent measurement processing for the air conditioner A, the measurement result data D1a in which the past measurement results for the air conditioner A are recorded. Is stored in the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2) (an example of “when there are a plurality of measurement result data in which measurement results for the measurement target specified by the measurement target specifying process are recorded”). ). Therefore, as an example, the processing unit 18 includes a past measurement result related to the air conditioner A as an example together with a message “There are a plurality of measurement results related to the air conditioner A. Which measurement result should be displayed?”. Are displayed in a list on the display unit 17 as to the file name, comment, and generation date of each measurement result data D1a. The processing unit 18 acquires the selected measurement result data D1a from the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2) when any measurement result (measurement result data D1a) is selected by the user, The measurement result based on the measurement result data D1a is displayed along with the current measurement result on the display unit 17 (another example of the measurement result display process).

  On the other hand, when the process for measuring the power consumption value of the air conditioner B installed at the outdoor position B is executed for the first time, first, the process for measuring the power consumption value of the air conditioner A described above is performed first. Then, the measurement condition for measuring the power consumption value of the air conditioner B is set, and the measurement condition data D0 is generated and stored in the storage unit 19. In addition, about the operation | work which sets the measurement conditions of each measuring object (the production | generation of the measurement condition data D0, and the memory | storage to the memory | storage part 19 of the produced | generated measurement condition data D0) at the time of the first measurement process about said air conditioner A Since this is the same as the setting work performed, the description thereof will be omitted below.

  Next, “measurement target specifying data” used to specify that the measurement target is the air conditioner B in the second and subsequent power consumption measurement processing using the air conditioner B as the measurement target is generated. In this case, since the air conditioner B is installed at the outdoor position B in this example, the GPS signal Sg from the GPS satellite 3 is suitable at the installation position of the air conditioner B in the same manner as the air conditioner A described above. Can be received. Therefore, in this example, the value of the positioning data D2 output from the positioning unit 12 (position B which is the current position of the measuring device 1) is air-conditioned in the same manner as the generation of the “measurement target specifying data” for the air conditioner A. Measurement target position specifying data Da associated with the machine B is generated.

  Subsequently, in a state where the measurement unit 11a is connected to the air conditioner B, the measurement start switch of the operation unit 16 is operated. At this time, the processing unit 18 executes the process A as the measurement target specifying process, and the measurement target located at the current position is the air conditioner B based on the acquired positioning data D2 and the measurement target position specifying data Da. Identifies it. Next, the processing unit 18 reads the measurement condition data D0 associated with the identified air conditioner A from the storage unit 19, and controls the measurement unit 11a according to the measurement condition of the measurement condition data D0 to measure the power value. At the same time, the measurement result data D1a output from the measurement unit 11a is stored in the storage unit 19 in association with the air conditioner B. Thereby, the first measurement process for measuring the air conditioner B is completed. Further, the processing unit 18 controls the display unit 17 to display the measurement result based on the measurement result data D1a (in this example, the power consumption value of the air conditioner B), and the past measurement result associated with the air conditioner B. It is determined that the data D1a does not exist, and the state where only the measurement result based on the measurement result data D1a output from the measurement unit 11a is displayed is maintained.

  In addition, when the second measurement process with the air conditioner B as a measurement object is performed after various measurement processes for other measurement objects, the second and subsequent measurement processes for the air conditioner A described above are performed. Similarly, the measurement process is started immediately without performing the measurement condition setting operation. Specifically, when the measurement start switch of the operation unit 16 is operated in a state where the measurement unit 11a is connected to the air conditioner B (a state in which the measurement device 1 exists at the position B), the processing unit 18 Then, the process A as the measurement target specifying process is executed. At this time, the measurement target located at the current position (position B different from the position A where the air conditioner A is installed) is specified as the air conditioner B.

  Next, the processing unit 18 acquires the measurement condition data D0 associated with the specified air conditioner B from the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2), and controls the measurement unit 11a according to the measurement conditions of the measurement condition data D0. Thus, the power value is measured, and the measurement result data D1a output from the measurement unit 11a is associated with the air conditioner B and stored in the storage unit 19. Thereby, the second measurement process for measuring the air conditioner B is completed.

  Further, the processing unit 18 controls the display unit 17 to display a measurement result based on the measurement result data D1a (as an example, a graph representing a change in the power consumption value of the air conditioner B during the measurement process), and the air conditioner It is determined that there is past measurement result data D1a associated with B (in this example, measurement result data D1a generated by the first measurement process for the air conditioner B), and the measurement result data D1a is stored in the storage unit 19 (or The measurement result (in this example, a graph showing a change in the power value measured during the first measurement process for the air conditioner B) based on the acquired measurement result data D1a is obtained from the data server 2) and the current measurement result. (A graph showing a change in the power value during the current measurement process) is displayed side by side on the display unit 17 (an example of a measurement result display process). Thus, the current measurement result and the past measurement result are displayed on the display unit 17 without performing the operation of selecting the measurement result data D1a in which the past measurement result to be compared with the current measurement result is recorded. Therefore, it is possible to accurately and easily determine whether or not any abnormality has occurred in the measurement target (air conditioner B).

  When the room temperature (temperature) measurement process (measurement process using the air in room A as a measurement target) is executed for the first time, measurement conditions are set (generation of measurement condition data D0) and the room is set. Generates “measurement target specifying data” used to specify that the measurement target is the living room A in the second and subsequent temperature measurement processes using the air of A (hereinafter also simply referred to as “room A”). To do. In this case, in this example, it is predicted that the room A is indoors and it is difficult to suitably receive the GPS signal Sg from the GPS satellite 3.

  Therefore, as an example, the identification code data D3 in which the identification code assigned to the room A is recorded is stored in the IC tag Tg, and the IC tag Tg is installed in advance at the entrance of the room A, for example. Further, when generating the “measurement target specifying data”, the IC tag reader 13 is brought close to the IC tag Tg installed in the room A, so that the identification code data D3 is read from the IC tag Tg by the IC tag reader 13. Then, identification code specifying data Db in which the identification code recorded in the identification code data D3 is associated with the room A is generated. In addition, instead of the above-described example in which a dedicated IC tag Tg is installed for measurement processing using the measurement system 100, for example, when an IC tag storing some identification code is installed in the room A, Using this IC tag, the identification code specifying data Db can be generated by associating the identification code stored in the IC tag with the room A.

  Next, the measurement start switch of the operation unit 16 is operated in a state where the temperature sensor is connected to the measurement unit 11b. At this time, the processing unit 18 first executes a measurement target specifying process. At this time, the processing unit 18 determines that the positioning process by the positioning unit 12 cannot be performed, and determines whether or not the identification code data D3 is output from the IC tag reader 13. At this time, the identification code data D3 is output from the IC tag reader 13 by bringing the IC tag reader 13 close to the IC tag Tg installed in the room A, so the processing unit 18 executes the process B described above. Then, it is specified that the measurement target associated with the identification code recorded in the identification code data D3 is the room A.

  Next, the processing unit 18 reads out the measurement condition data D0 associated with the living room A specified by the process B from the storage unit 19 (another example of “acquisition of measurement condition data”). Subsequently, the processing unit 18 measures the temperature (room temperature) by controlling the measurement unit 11b according to the measurement conditions of the measurement condition data D0 read from the storage unit 19 (or acquired from the data server 2), and the measurement. The measurement result data D1b output from the unit 11b is stored in the storage unit 19 in association with the living room A. Thereby, the first measurement process which makes the air of the living room A a measuring object is completed. Further, the processing unit 18 controls the display unit 17 to display the measurement result based on the measurement result data D1b (in this example, the room temperature of the room A), and the past measurement result data D1b associated with the room A is displayed. It discriminate | determines that it does not exist, and the state which displayed only the measurement result based on the measurement result data D1b output from the measurement unit 11b is maintained.

  On the other hand, as an example, when performing the second measurement process with the room A as the measurement object after various measurement processes for other measurement objects, the measurement is immediately performed without performing measurement condition setting work. Processing begins. Specifically, when a temperature sensor is connected to the measurement unit 11b and the measurement start switch of the operation unit 16 is operated in a state where the measurement apparatus 1 is present in the living room A, the processing unit 18 Process B as the specific process is executed. At this time, the identification code data D3 is output from the IC tag reader 13 by bringing the IC tag reader 13 close to the IC tag Tg installed in the living room A, and read based on the identification code data D3. The measurement target of the identification code is specified as the room A.

  Next, the processing unit 18 acquires the measurement condition data D0 associated with the specified living room A from the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2), and controls the measurement unit 11b according to the measurement conditions of the measurement condition data D0. And the measurement result data D1b output from the measurement unit 11b is stored in the storage unit 19 in association with the living room A. Thereby, the second measurement process which makes the living room A a measuring object is completed.

  Further, the processing unit 18 controls the display unit 17 to display the measurement result based on the measurement result data D1b (in this example, the room temperature of the room A), and the past measurement result data D1b associated with the room A ( In this example, it is determined that the measurement result data D1b) generated by the first measurement process for the room A exists, and the measurement result data D1b is acquired from the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2), and the acquired measurement result is obtained. The measurement result based on the data D1b (in this example, the room temperature measured during the first measurement process related to the room A) is displayed on the display unit 17 along with the current measurement result (an example of the measurement result display process). Thus, the current measurement result and the past measurement result are displayed on the display unit 17 without performing the operation of selecting the measurement result data D1b in which the past measurement result to be compared with the current measurement result is recorded. Therefore, for example, it is possible to accurately and easily determine whether any abnormality has occurred in the air conditioning equipment or the like of the measurement target (living room A).

  In addition, when the measurement process of the room temperature (temperature) of the room B (measurement process using the air in the room B as a measurement target) is executed for the first time, the measurement condition is set (generation of the measurement condition data D0) and the room is set. Generates “measurement target specifying data” used to specify that the measurement target is the living room B in the second and subsequent temperature measurement processing using the air of B (hereinafter also simply referred to as “the living room B”). To do. In this case, similarly to the above-described room A, in this example, it is predicted that the room B is indoor and it is difficult to suitably receive the GPS signal Sg from the GPS satellite 3.

  Therefore, as an example, an operation of pasting the barcode label Lb on which the identification code given to the living room B is printed, for example, at the entrance of the living room B is performed in advance. Further, when generating the “measurement target specifying data”, the barcode label Lb attached to the room B is imaged by the camera 14, and the image data D4 output from the camera 14 is subjected to image analysis processing to obtain the barcode label. The identification code printed on Lb is specified, and the specified identification code is associated with the room B to generate identification code specifying data Db. Note that, for example, a barcode label on which some identification code is printed is attached to the room B instead of the above example of attaching the dedicated barcode label Lb for measurement processing using the measurement system 100. Sometimes, using this barcode label, identification code specifying data Db can be generated by associating the identification code printed on the barcode label with the room B.

  Next, the measurement start switch of the operation unit 16 is operated in a state where the temperature sensor is connected to the measurement unit 11b. At this time, the processing unit 18 first executes a measurement target specifying process. At this time, the processing unit 18 determines that the positioning process by the positioning unit 12 cannot be performed and determines that the identification code data D3 is not output from the IC tag reader 13, and then outputs the camera 14 or the imaging data D4. It is determined whether or not it has been done. At this time, the image data D4 is output from the camera 14 by imaging the barcode label Lb attached to the living room B with the camera 14. Therefore, the processing unit 18 executes the above-described processing C, executes image analysis processing for the imaging data D4 output from the camera 14, and performs an image of the imaging data D4 (in this example, the barcode label Lb). The identification code (an example of the “identification code indicated by the identification code display”) is specified, and it is determined whether there is a measurement object associated with the specified identification code. At this time, the measurement object associated with the identified identification code is identified as the room B.

  Next, the processing unit 18 reads out the measurement condition data D0 associated with the living room B identified by the above process C from the storage unit 19 (another example of “acquisition of measurement condition data”). Subsequently, the processing unit 18 measures the temperature (room temperature) by controlling the measurement unit 11b according to the measurement conditions of the measurement condition data D0 read from the storage unit 19 (or acquired from the data server 2), and the measurement. The measurement result data D1b output from the unit 11b is stored in the storage unit 19 in association with the living room B. Thereby, the first measurement process which makes the air of the living room B a measuring object is completed. In addition, the processing unit 18 controls the display unit 17 to display a measurement result based on the measurement result data D1b (in this example, the room temperature of the room B), and past measurement result data D1b associated with the room B is displayed. It discriminate | determines that it does not exist, and the state which displayed only the measurement result based on the measurement result data D1b output from the measurement unit 11b is maintained.

  On the other hand, as an example, when performing the second measurement process with the room B as the measurement object after various measurement processes for other measurement objects, measurement is immediately performed without performing measurement condition setting work. Processing begins. Specifically, when a temperature sensor is connected to the measurement unit 11b and the measurement start switch of the operation unit 16 is operated in a state where the measurement device 1 is present in the living room B, the processing unit 18 Process C as the specific process is executed. At this time, the image data D4 is output from the camera 14 by imaging the barcode label Lb attached to the living room B with the camera 14, and the image analysis processing for the imaging data D4 is executed. Thus, the identification code of the barcode label Lb is specified, and the measurement target of the specified identification code is specified as the room B.

  Next, the processing unit 18 acquires the measurement condition data D0 associated with the specified living room B from the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2), and controls the measurement unit 11b according to the measurement conditions of the measurement condition data D0. And the measurement result data D1b output from the measurement unit 11b is stored in the storage unit 19 in association with the room B. Thereby, the second measurement process which makes the living room B a measuring object is completed.

  Furthermore, the processing unit 18 controls the display unit 17 to display the measurement result based on the measurement result data D1b (in this example, the room temperature of the room B), and the past measurement result data D1b associated with the room B ( In this example, it is determined that the measurement result data D1b) generated by the first measurement process for the room B exists, and the measurement result data D1b is acquired from the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2), and the acquired measurement result is obtained. The measurement result based on the data D1b (in this example, the room temperature measured during the first measurement process relating to the room B) is displayed along with the current measurement result on the display unit 17 (an example of the measurement result display process). Thus, the current measurement result and the past measurement result are displayed on the display unit 17 without performing the operation of selecting the measurement result data D1b in which the past measurement result to be compared with the current measurement result is recorded. Therefore, for example, it is possible to accurately and easily determine whether any abnormality has occurred in the air conditioning equipment or the like of the measurement target (living room B).

  In addition, when the measurement process of the body temperature (temperature) of the person A (measurement process with the person A as a measurement target) is executed for the first time, the measurement conditions are set (generation of the measurement condition data D0), and the person A is “Measurement target specifying data” used to specify that the measurement target is the person A in the second and subsequent temperature measurement processes to be measured is generated. In this case, when the measurement target is a person, it is difficult to attach the barcode label Lb to the measurement target, and it may be difficult to always carry the IC tag Tg. Therefore, in this example, as an example, the face of the person A is imaged by the camera 14, and an image of the imaging data D4 output from the camera 14 (in this example, an image of the face of the person A) is associated with the person A. The measurement target specifying image data Dc as “measurement target specifying data” is generated. Instead of generating the measurement target specifying image data Dc based on the imaging data D4 from the camera 14, the measurement target specifying image data Dc may be generated based on various types of image data generated in advance.

  Next, in a state where the temperature sensor is connected to the measurement unit 11b and the temperature sensor is in contact with the person A, the measurement start switch of the operation unit 16 is operated. At this time, the processing unit 18 first executes a measurement target specifying process. At this time, the processing unit 18 determines that the positioning process by the positioning unit 12 cannot be performed and determines that the identification code data D3 is not output from the IC tag reader 13, and then outputs the camera 14 or the imaging data D4. It is determined whether or not it has been done. At this time, imaging data D4 is output from the camera 14 by imaging the face of the person A. Accordingly, the processing unit 18 executes the above-described processing C, performs image analysis processing on the imaging data D4 output from the camera 14, determines that a human face has been captured, and images of the face It is determined whether or not there is a measurement object associated with. In this case, the measurement target associated with the image (image of the face) of the imaging data D4 is identified as the person A by the image matching process based on the imaging data D4 and the measurement target specifying image data Dc. .

  Next, the processing unit 18 reads out the measurement condition data D0 associated with the person A identified by the process C from the storage unit 19 (another example of “acquisition of measurement condition data”). Subsequently, the processing unit 18 controls the measurement unit 11b according to the measurement conditions of the measurement condition data D0 read from the storage unit 19 (or acquired from the data server 2), and measures the temperature (body temperature). The measurement result data D1b output from the unit 11b is stored in the storage unit 19 in association with the person A. As a result, the first measurement process for measuring person A is completed. Further, the processing unit 18 controls the display unit 17 to display a measurement result based on the measurement result data D1b (in this example, the body temperature of the person A), and past measurement result data D1b associated with the person A is displayed. It discriminate | determines that it does not exist, and the state which displayed only the measurement result based on the measurement result data D1b output from the measurement unit 11b is maintained.

  On the other hand, as an example, when performing the second measurement process with the person A as the measurement object after various measurement processes for other measurement objects, the measurement is immediately performed without performing the measurement condition setting operation. Processing begins. Specifically, when the measurement start switch of the operation unit 16 is operated in a state where the temperature sensor is connected to the measurement unit 11b, the processing unit 18 executes the process C as the measurement target specifying process. At this time, imaging data D4 is output from the camera 14 by imaging the face of the person A by the camera 14, and image analysis processing (imaging data D4 and measurement target specifying image data Dc) is performed on the imaging data D4. The image matching process based on the above is executed, and it is determined that a human face has been imaged, and the face image is identified as the person A.

  Next, the processing unit 18 acquires the measurement condition data D0 associated with the specified person A from the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2), and controls the measurement unit 11b according to the measurement conditions of the measurement condition data D0. The temperature (body temperature) is measured and the measurement result data D1b output from the measurement unit 11b is stored in the storage unit 19 in association with the person A. This completes the second measurement process with the person A as the measurement target.

  Further, the processing unit 18 controls the display unit 17 to display a measurement result based on the measurement result data D1b (in this example, the body temperature of the person A), and the past measurement result data D1b associated with the person A ( In this example, it is determined that the measurement result data D1b) generated by the first measurement process for the person A exists, the measurement result data D1b is acquired from the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2), and the acquired measurement results are obtained. The measurement result based on the data D1b (in this example, the body temperature measured during the first measurement process for the person A) is displayed on the display unit 17 along with the current measurement result (an example of the measurement result display process). Thus, the current measurement result and the past measurement result are displayed on the display unit 17 without performing the operation of selecting the measurement result data D1b in which the past measurement result to be compared with the current measurement result is recorded. Therefore, for example, it is possible to easily determine whether or not the physical condition of the measurement target (person A) is good.

  Furthermore, when the process for measuring the temperature of the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A (the measurement process for measuring the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A) is performed for the first time, the measurement conditions are set (generation of the measurement condition data D0), “Measurement target specifying data” used to specify that the measurement target is the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A in the second and subsequent temperature measurement processing using the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A as a measurement target. In this case, in this example, since the vehicle A is a moving body and the current position changes, it is predicted that it is difficult to specify the measurement target associated with the current position. At this time, the measurement target using the IC tag Tg described above or the measurement target using the barcode label Lb can be specified. In this example, the camera 14 is used as an example by the camera 14 (for example, An overall image of the vehicle A viewed from the front side: an example of a landscape around the measurement target), and an image of the imaging data D4 output from the camera 14 (in this example, an image of the vehicle A) is exhausted from the vehicle A The measurement target specifying image data Dc as “measurement target specifying data” is generated in association with the measurement target with the tube.

  Next, in the state where the temperature sensor is connected to the measurement unit 11b and the temperature sensor is in contact with the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A, the measurement start switch of the operation unit 16 is operated. At this time, the processing unit 18 first executes a measurement target specifying process. At this time, the processing unit 18 determines that there is no measurement target associated with the current position measured by the positioning unit 12 and determines that the identification code data D3 is not output from the IC tag reader 13. Then, it is determined whether or not the camera 14 or the imaging data D4 is output. At this time, imaging data D4 is output from the camera 14 by imaging the vehicle A. Therefore, the processing unit 18 executes the above-described process C, executes an image analysis process for the imaging data D4 output from the camera 14, and performs an image of the imaging data D4 (in this example, an image of the vehicle A). It is determined whether or not there is a measurement object associated with (). At this time, the measurement target associated with the image of the imaging data D4 is specified as the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A by the image matching process based on the imaging data D4 and the measurement target specifying image data Dc.

  Next, the processing unit 18 reads out the measurement condition data D0 associated with the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A identified by the above process C from the storage unit 19 (another example of “acquisition of measurement condition data”). Subsequently, the processing unit 18 measures the temperature by controlling the measurement unit 11b according to the measurement condition of the measurement condition data D0 read from the storage unit 19 (or acquired from the data server 2), and from the measurement unit 11b. The output measurement result data D1b is stored in the storage unit 19 in association with the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A. As a result, the first measurement process for measuring the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A is completed. In addition, the processing unit 18 controls the display unit 17 to display the measurement result (in this example, the temperature of the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A) based on the measurement result data D1b, and the past associated with the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A. It is determined that the measurement result data D1b does not exist, and only the measurement result based on the measurement result data D1b output from the measurement unit 11b is displayed.

  On the other hand, as an example, when performing the second measurement process using the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A as a measurement object after various measurement processes for other measurement objects, the measurement condition setting operation is not performed. The measurement process starts immediately. Specifically, when the measurement start switch of the operation unit 16 is operated in a state where the temperature sensor is connected to the measurement unit 11b, the processing unit 18 executes the process C as the measurement target specifying process. At this time, imaging data D4 is output from the camera 14 by imaging the vehicle A with the camera 14, and image analysis processing (imaging data D4 and measurement target specifying image data Dc) for the imaging data D4 is performed. (Image matching processing based on this) is executed, the image of the imaging data D4 is specified as the vehicle A, and the measurement target is specified as the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A.

  Next, the processing unit 18 acquires the measurement condition data D0 associated with the measurement target with the exhaust pipe of the specified vehicle A from the storage unit 19 (or the data server 2), and according to the measurement conditions of the measurement condition data D0. The temperature is measured by controlling the measurement unit 11b, and the measurement result data D1b output from the measurement unit 11b is stored in the storage unit 19 in association with the measurement target with the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A. As a result, the second measurement process using the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A as a measurement target is completed.

  Further, the processing unit 18 controls the display unit 17 to display the measurement result (in this example, the temperature of the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A) based on the measurement result data D1b, and the past associated with the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A. Measurement result data D1b (in this example, the measurement result data D1b generated by the first measurement process for the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A) is determined to exist, and the measurement result data D1b is stored in the storage unit 19 (or data server 2). And the measurement result based on the acquired measurement result data D1b (in this example, the temperature measured during the first measurement process for the exhaust pipe of the vehicle A) is displayed on the display unit 17 along with the current measurement result. (An example of measurement result display processing). Thus, the current measurement result and the past measurement result are displayed on the display unit 17 without performing the operation of selecting the measurement result data D1b in which the past measurement result to be compared with the current measurement result is recorded. Therefore, for example, it is possible to easily determine whether or not the measurement target (the exhaust pipe (exhaust catalyst) of the vehicle A) is in a state where the exhaust can be normally purified.

  As described above, according to the measurement apparatus 1, the processing unit 18 executes the measurement target specifying process for acquiring “measurement target specifying data” that can specify the measurement target and specifying the measurement target prior to the measurement process. In the measurement process, the measurement condition data D0 in which the measurement condition of the measurement target specified by the measurement target specifying process is recorded and the physical quantity of the measurement target is measured according to the measurement condition of the measurement condition data D0. Prior to processing, the measurement target is automatically specified, and the measurement condition data D0 in which the measurement condition for the specified measurement target is recorded is automatically acquired, so that the user is not familiar with the operation of this type of apparatus. Even if the person performs the measurement process or performs the measurement process in an environment where it is difficult to select the measurement condition data D0 using both hands, Without erroneous, the measurement process can be performed reliably and easily in accordance with the measurement conditions corresponding to the measurement target.

  Further, according to the measurement apparatus 1, the processing unit 18 specifies the measurement target by executing the measurement target specifying process prior to the measurement result display process, and specifies the measurement target in the measurement result display process by the measurement target specifying process. By obtaining the measurement result data D1 in which the measurement result for the measurement object is recorded and displaying the measurement result based on the measurement result data D1, the measurement object is automatically identified prior to the measurement result display process. Since the measurement result data D1 in which the measurement result for the specified measurement object is recorded is automatically acquired, a user who is unfamiliar with the operation of this type of apparatus performs the measurement result display process, or uses both hands. Even when the measurement result display process is performed in an environment where it is difficult to select the measurement result data D1 used, the desired measurement result is displayed reliably and easily. It is possible.

  Further, according to the measurement apparatus 1, the processing unit 18 controls the communication unit 15 in the measurement process to execute the measurement condition data acquisition process for transmitting the measurement condition data D0 from the data server 2 and acquiring the measurement condition data. Even if the measurement condition data D0 of the specified measurement object is not stored in the storage unit 19 of the measurement apparatus 1, the measurement process can be performed by obtaining it from the data server 2, and therefore by storing the measurement condition data D0 A large number of measurement condition data D0 can be stored without incurring a situation in which the valuable storage area of the storage unit 19 is largely occupied. As a result, the frequency of manually setting the measurement conditions can be sufficiently reduced when the measurement process is performed multiple times for each of a plurality of types of measurement objects, so that the measurement process can be performed more easily. Can do.

  Furthermore, according to the measurement apparatus 1, the processing unit 18 controls the communication unit 15 to transmit the measurement result data D1 from the data server 2 and acquire it in the measurement result display process. As a result, even if the measurement result data D1 of the specified measurement target is not stored in the storage unit 19 of the measurement apparatus 1, the measurement result display process can be executed by acquiring it from the data server 2, and thus the past measurement Many measurement result data D1 can be preserve | saved, without causing the situation where the valuable storage area of the memory | storage part 19 is occupied largely by memory | storage of the result data D1. This can sufficiently reduce the possibility that there will be no past measurement results that can be compared with the current measurement results when performing measurement processing multiple times for multiple types of measurement objects. it can.

  Further, according to this measurement apparatus 1, when the processing unit 18 includes a plurality of measurement condition data D0 in which the measurement conditions of the measurement target specified by the measurement target specifying process are recorded in the measurement process, each measurement condition data By displaying D0 as a list and acquiring measurement condition data D0 selected from the measurement condition data D0 displayed as a list, a plurality of measurement conditions are set for one measurement object to obtain measurement condition data D0. The measurement process can be executed in accordance with the desired measurement condition simply by selecting the measurement condition data D0 corresponding to the measurement process to be executed from among the plurality of measurement condition data D0 as needed. .

  Further, according to the measurement apparatus 1, when the processing unit 18 includes a plurality of measurement result data D1 in which the measurement results for the measurement target specified by the measurement target specifying process are recorded in the measurement result display process, The measurement result data D1 is displayed as a list, and the measurement result data D1 selected from each measurement result data D1 displayed as a list is acquired to save a plurality of measurement result data D1 for one measurement object. In addition to the measurement result data D1 generated in the immediately preceding measurement process, the measurement result data D1 of the measurement result to be compared with the current measurement result is arbitrarily selected from the plurality of measurement result data D1 as necessary. By simply selecting, a desired measurement result can be displayed and compared with the current measurement result.

  Furthermore, according to this measuring apparatus 1, in the measurement object specifying process, the processing unit 18 controls the positioning unit 12 to determine the current position and outputs the positioning data D2 output from the positioning unit 12 and the measurement target. The measurement target position specifying data Da whose position is recorded in association with the measurement target is acquired as “measurement target specifying data”, and at the current position based on the positioning data D2 and the measurement target position specifying data Da. By specifying the measurement target, it is possible to specify the measurement target by simply measuring the current position by the positioning unit 12 at the position of the measurement target, that is, the measurement processing execution position. Since the identification data Da) "can be generated, the measurement target exists at a position where the GPS signal Sg from the GPS satellite 3 can be received. , It is possible to easily generate a measurement target position specifying data Da as a "measurement target specifying data."

  Further, according to the measuring apparatus 1, the processing unit 18 controls the IC tag reader 13 to read the identification code data D3 from the IC tag Tg and is read by the IC tag reader 13 in the measurement target specifying process. The identification code data D3 and the identification code specifying data Db in which the identification code assigned to the measurement target is recorded in association with the measurement target are acquired as “measurement target specifying data”, and the identification code data D3 and the identification code specification When the measurement target to which the identification code of the identification code data D3 is assigned is specified based on the data Db, and there is a possibility that the measurement target exists at a position where the GPS signal Sg from the GPS satellite 3 cannot be received. Even when the measurement object is a moving object (when the position of the measurement object may be different in each measurement process), I By the tag Tg reads the identification code data D3 specifying the identification code, it is possible to identify the measured accurately and easily.

  Furthermore, according to the measurement apparatus 1, the processing unit 18 performs identification in which the imaging data D4 output from the camera 14 and the identification code assigned to the measurement target are recorded in association with the measurement target in the measurement target specifying process. The code specifying data Db is acquired as “measurement target specifying data”, the imaging data D4 is “image analysis processed” to specify the identification code indicated by the barcode label Lb, and the specified identification code And the identification code specifying data Db, by specifying the measurement object to which the specified identification code is assigned, there is a possibility that the measurement object exists at a position where the GPS signal Sg from the GPS satellite 3 cannot be received. Even when the measurement target is a moving object (when the position of the measurement target may be different each time the measurement process is performed), the camera 14 By specifying the identification codes by image analysis processing imaging data D4 by imaging the chromatography code label Lb, it is possible to identify the measured accurately and easily.

  Further, according to the measurement apparatus 1, the processing unit 18 uses the measurement target specifying image in which the imaging data D4 output from the camera 14 and the measurement target image are recorded in association with the measurement target in the measurement target specifying process. By acquiring the data Dc as “measurement target specifying data” and performing image matching processing on the imaging data D4 and the measurement target specifying image data Dc to specify the measurement target imaged by the camera 14 When there is a possibility that the measurement target exists at a position where the GPS signal Sg from the GPS satellite 3 cannot be received, or when it is difficult to arrange the IC tag Tg, the barcode label Lb and the like on the measurement target. However, an image matching process based on the imaging data D4 and the measurement target specifying image data Dc is performed by imaging the measurement target with the camera 14. By row, the measurement target captured can be identified accurately and easily.

  Further, according to the measurement apparatus 1, the processing unit 18 performs measurement in which the imaging data D4 output from the camera 14 and an image of a landscape around the measurement target are recorded in association with the measurement target in the measurement target specifying process. The target specifying image data Dc is acquired as “measurement target specifying data”, and image matching processing is performed on the imaging data D4 and the measurement target specifying image data Dc. By specifying the measurement target, the measurement target may be present at a position where the GPS signal Sg from the GPS satellite 3 cannot be received, or the IC tag Tg and the barcode label Lb are allocated to the measurement target. Even when it is difficult to install, the camera 14 images the surrounding landscape of the measurement target, and the imaging data D4 and the measurement target specifying image By performing the image matching process based on the over data Dc, a measurement target which is located scenery captured can be identified accurately and easily.

  The configuration of the “measuring device” is not limited to the configuration of the measuring device 1 described above. For example, the measurement apparatus 1 integrally including the display unit 17 has been described as an example, but a configuration in which measurement results and the like are displayed on a display apparatus as an external apparatus may be employed. Further, the measurement apparatus 1 configured to be able to transmit and receive various data D0, D1a, D1b, Da to Dc with the data server 2 as an “external apparatus” has been described as an example. Even in (a configuration in which transmission / reception with an external device is not performed), the measurement device is specified by acquiring the measurement condition data D0 and the measurement result data D1 (read out from the storage unit 19) by specifying the measurement object as in the above example. 1 (measurement system 100) can be produced.

  Further, the measurement apparatus 1 including the positioning unit 12 that measures the current position based on the GPS signal Sg transmitted from the GPS satellites 3, 3,... And generates the positioning data D2 has been described as an example. The configuration of the “measuring device” is not limited to this. Specifically, a positioning unit configured to measure the current position by using various satellite positioning systems other than GPS (such as Galileo, GLONASS, and Compass) alone, and a configuration for positioning the current position together with various satellite positioning systems Based on signals obtained from a mobile phone base station via a positioning unit (for example, a configuration that uses GPS and a quasi-zenith satellite in combination) and a communication unit connectable to a mobile phone communication network (mobile base station positioning) Various positioning units such as a positioning unit configured to measure the current position (using a system) and a positioning unit configured to determine the current position using a satellite positioning system and a mobile base station positioning system are installed. Thus, a “measuring device” can be configured.

  In addition, a “positioning unit” configured to measure the current position by using an indoor compatible positioning system such as IMES (Indoor MEssaging System) alone or in combination with another positioning system may be employed. By adopting such a configuration, even when the measurement target is located in an environment where it is difficult to receive signals from satellites or base stations (indoors, behind buildings, etc.), the current position is maintained. Based on this, it is possible to reliably specify the measurement target.

  In addition, as the measurement target specifying process, the measurement target is specified using the positioning unit 12 (positioning data D2) (Processing A), and the measurement target is specified using the IC tag reader 13 and the IC tag Tg (identification code data D3) ( Process B), measurement target specification using camera 14 and barcode label Lb (imaging data D4) (process C), and measurement target specification using only camera 14 (imaging data D4) (image of measurement target itself) The measurement device 1 having a configuration capable of executing all of the measurement target identification based on the above and the measurement target identification based on the surrounding landscape image of the measurement target: process C) has been described as an example. It is also possible to adopt a configuration that can execute any one or only two or more and four or less.

  Furthermore, when there are a plurality of measurement condition data D0 associated with the measurement target specified by the measurement target specifying process, the measurement apparatus 1 having a configuration in which each measurement condition data D0 is displayed in a list and selected by the user is taken as an example. However, instead of (or in addition to) such a configuration, each measurement is performed when there are a plurality of measurement condition data D0 associated with the measurement target specified by the measurement target specifying process. A specified condition in the condition data D0 (for example, a condition with “measurement condition data D0 generated at an arbitrary time or an arbitrary period”, or an “environmental value (temperature, humidity and weather at the start of the measurement process)” Etc.) from the storage unit 19 or the data server 2 from the storage unit 19 or the data server 2. Obtain the configuration for executing the measurement process may also be employed.

  Similarly, the measurement apparatus 1 is configured to display a list of each measurement result data D1 and allow the user to select the measurement result data D1 associated with the measurement target specified by the measurement target specifying process. However, instead of (or in addition to) such a configuration, when there are a plurality of measurement result data D1 associated with the measurement target specified by the measurement target specifying process, A specified condition in each measurement result data D1 (for example, a condition with “measurement result data D1 generated at an arbitrary time or an arbitrary period”, or an “environmental value (temperature, humidity at the start of the measurement process)” And the measurement result data D1 that meets the conditions of the measurement result data D1 "generated in the same environment as the weather etc.) from the storage unit 19 and the data server 2 Adopting a configuration for performing the measurement result displaying process Te may.
