MEASURING DEVICE SHARED CONTROL METHOD AND MEASURING DEVICE SHARED SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To share efficiently a plurality of measuring devices of an identical type by a plurality of testing systems.;SOLUTION: The method comprises a step of: connecting each of a plurality of input/output ports provided at each testing system to an external port arranged at a switch, respectively; a step of searching an input/output port without connection among a plurality of input/output ports respectively equipped at a plurality of measuring devices as a input/output port capable of being connected in response to a connection request when the connection request is received from an arbitrary testing system, wherein the connection request includes information indicative of an external port connected to the testing system; a step of establishing, at a switch, a path connecting the external port indicated by the connection request with the obtained input/output port of a measuring device as a search resu and a step of releasing the path established at the switch and the input/output port of the measure device connected by the path for the external port indicated in a connection release request, when the connection release request is received from the arbitrary testing system, wherein the connection release request includes information indicative of the external port connected to the testing system.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
