| 20110295388 | LADDER PROGRAM EDITION DEVICE - When constituting a ladder program edition device that edits a ladder diagram, there is provided an edit control unit that generates data of a logical expression corresponding to a logical structure of an input condition and an output condition in a ladder diagram based on an arrangement of circuit elements in a ladder diagram, sets circuit elements that specify the input condition as one circuit unit of one input and one output for each input condition based on the data of the above logical expression, and connects output ends of circuit units to be connected in parallel with each other in the ladder diagram. With this configuration, generation of a syntactically erroneous ladder diagram is prevented. | 12-01-2011 |
| 20120221123 | ELECTRICAL INSTRUMENT AND CONTROLLING CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A method of controlling an electrical instrument to which a user inputs a reservation time using a rotary dial includes, upon reception of power rates by time periods from a power provider, confirming power rate levels by time periods based on the received power rates, displaying a color window including the power rate levels by time periods around the rotary dial, and displaying the reservation time input by the user through the rotary dial on the clock window. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a user interface that displays power rate information by time periods such that the user intuitively recognizes the power rate information and sets a reservation time on the basis of the power rate information. | 08-30-2012 |
| 20150100136 | Providing Instructions to a Mainframe System - Method and system are provided for providing instructions to a mainframe system. The method at a client system includes constructing a job control language (JCL) job embedded with an interpreted language program to provide instructions to a mainframe operating system. The method at a mainframe system includes: receiving a job control language (JCL) job embedded with an interpreted language program to provide instructions to a mainframe operating system; copying the interpreted language program to a transient executable area; and executing the interpreted language program. | 04-09-2015 |
