Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2004320773
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To solve problems such that a long time is required, energy is wasted and an uncomfortable signal occurs in a conventional method for building up a group of elements in a home automation network.
In the method of building up a group of elements B0, B1, B2, B4, B4 linked over a network for controlling the equipment D0, D1, D2, D3, D4 of a building, while the elements are in a learning mode, a first operation exerted on one of the elements is interpreted as a question related to a state of membership in the group (included-excluded), transmission of an information signal related to such a state is incurred, and the next operation exerted on the element can be interpreted as a command for changing such a state of membership in the group.
